Cortis’s eyes lit up and he said in a delighted tone, “You’re not angry at me anymore?”
Bai Qingqing kept quiet for a moment, then lowered her head. She felt it was best that she ignored Cortis for the time being so that she would have a say in things in the future and not continue to be bullied this way.
The joy faded from Cortis’s face. He transformed into a snake pletely, slithered out of the house, and swallowed a prey, before curling up in a corner and continuing with his sleep.
Parker barbecued the food and tore off the meat into a bowl, then brought it into the bedroom for Bai Qingqing. Although she felt very hungry, she didn’t have much of an appetite. After poking around in the bowl and eating two slices, she refused to eat anymore.
After eating his fill, Parker entered the bedroom and a smile appeared on his face when he saw Bai Qingqing lying in his nest.
As he laid down beside her, she kicked his leg. “You haven’t washed your feet. Don’t kick me with your legs.”
“I won’t. My legs are longer than yours, they won’t be hitting you.” Parker held Bai Qingqing against his chest, spreading his warmth to her.
Bai Qingqing thought to herself, Can’t be sure of that. In the middle of the night, the leopard will probably grip me with all four limbs.
Still feeling a subtle pain in her body, Bai Qingqing couldn’t resist squirming into Parker’s arms. She felt glad Parker was around tonight.
As Cortis was around, she didn’t thank Parker.
As they say, what you think about in the day, you will dream of it at night. Due to the major agitation Bai Qingqing had suffered tonight, plus the lingering sensation in her body, after she fell asleep, her mind was still filled with what she did with Cortis…
The next day, Bai Qingqing woke up under Parker’s watchful eyes. The instant she opened her eyes, they were met with a pair of dark golden beast eyes. There seemed to be something concealed in those dark eyes, and for a moment, Bai Qingqing didn’t recognize the leopard.
“Parker?” Bai Qingqing gazed at Parker’s whiskers and greeted him with a smile. “Morning.”
Parker’s whiskers shook, then he suddenly flipped over and pinned Bai Qingqing underneath him. He retracted the fingernails from his paws and gripped her shoulders with his plum blossom-shaped paws.
Bai Qingqing was filled with terror at this gesture. Her expression changed drastically as she pushed her hands against the leopard’s chest.
“What are you doing?” Bai Qingqing asked nervously.
She couldn’t keep still as she slept this time and had kept squirming into Parker’s arms during the night, driving him crazy.
Seeing the terror on Qingqing’s face, his rational senses came back to him.
No, he couldn’t act like that snake, for it would startle Qingqing.
Parker took a deep breath, jumped off Bai Qingqing and out of the window, into the rain.
Able to relax now, Bai Qingqing gazed out the window. What’s wrong with Parker?
Cortis, who was sleeping soundly in a corner, had his body curled up tightly in circles with his head on top of the pile, as though he was afraid he would be occupying too much space.
If one didn’t look too closely, it resembled the poop one would see in ics.
The corners of Bai Qingqing’s mouth curled up. Sitting upright in the nest, this action made her feel an unfortable sensation in her lower body right away. She frowned a little and walked gently to the window.
A leopard was running about in the rain, jumping very high with every step, looking as though he had gone crazy.
“Silly leopard.”
Bai Qingqing scolded with a smile as she opened the door. The short-winged bird asked for food by making cuckoo sounds, flapping its wings, and wanting to take flight. Bai Qingqing glanced at it casually and saw, to her surprise, that there was one more egg on the ground now.
They had been rearing it for four to five days, and finally, it had laid an egg!
Seeing the door to his home open, Parker ran home with light footsteps, now that his urge had been washed away by the rain.
“Qingqing, what happened for you to be so happy?” Parker asked as he stood behind her.
Bai Qingqing raised her head and glanced at Parker, then pointed at the short-winged bird. “Look, it has laid an egg.”
