But what welcomed them was their mommy, who was holding onto a wilted vine and hitting it with her other hand, wearing an angry expression.
The leopard cubsâ legs suddenly felt a little limp.
The leopard cubs squatted down in a line in the bedroom. Although they were leopards, they looked extremely like primary school students who had done something wrong.
Bai Qingqing only indicatively lashed them twice gently, then threw the vine onto the floor after entering the bedroom. Anyway, it didnât seem that they were going to let the cubs off. Parker was a greater threat compared to the vine.
Winston came back too. After finding out what the leopard cubs had done, he didnât try to speak up for them either.
âDo you guys know your mistake now?â Bai Qingqing asked with a stern face.
âUhh uhh~â The cubs were especially well-behaved today, but they thought in their hearts, Itâs such a pity. We almost stole the eggs. But the eggs...
Bai Qingqing looked at Muir, who was squatting in the nest like a wooden statue, and said, âQuickly apologize to Muir.â
Before the leopard cubs could do anything, they were slammed to the ground by their daddyâs paws. They let out a few pitiful howls.
It was a pity that everyone in the family felt bad for the chicks that hadnât hatched yet. No one felt bad for them over this little pain.
The leopard cubs lay on the ground, looking at Muir in front of them, and howled, seeming to be apologizing to him.
Muir pretended as if he hadnât heard anything. He didnât even raise his eyelids.
Parker then bit at their necks a couple of times. The leopard cubsâ cries turned more pitiful. After biting the first one, he went to bite the second one, not letting anyone off.
In the end, Bai Qingqingâs heart ached for the children and she secretly nudged him. Only then did Parker let the cubs off.
The leopard cubs were still feeling extremely baffled. They threw a glance at Muir, then at the nest under him. They suddenly howled at their daddy while trembling. âHowl howl~â
Parker paused and he looked toward Muir in astonishment.
Muirâs heart skipped a beat from Parkerâs gaze. What did the leopard cubs say to him? Could it be that they had done something else that was harmful to the eggs?
Muir felt so anxious that it felt as if he was going to spew flames from his eyes. Parker then glared fiercely at the cubs, turned into his human form, and said, âItâs nothing.â
âHowl!â
The cubs immediately started howling away, not even scared of being beaten up anymore, as if they wanted to prove something. They were slapped down by Parker.
The leopard cubs looked toward Muir and cried out even more agitatedly after seeing that his gaze didnât seem friendly when he looked toward them.
If the eagle beastman were to find out, he wouldnât get angry at them anymore. The most... the most itâd be another one. However, the other one was hibernating and they didnât need to be scared of him for now.
Parker was so angry that he turned back into his beast form, then pounced on them to bite them. Damn it, how dare they say that those eggs were Curtisâs? If that was true...
Parker shivered, not daring to think about it. He wasnât going to accept such a reality. Not only did Qingqing birthed Curtisâs eggs, but they were also hatched by Muir. If this was true, heâd get so angry that heâd spurt blood and die.
This must have been the excuse the leopard cubs thought up to get away from the blame. They deserved to be bitten.
Therefore, Parker bit them even harder. The cubs kept on crying out agonizingly and finally kept quiet, not daring to make a sound.
Bai Qingqing was scared by Parkerâs fierceness and quickly pushed him away. âWhat are you doing? Are you going to bite them to death?â
Even Muir felt surprised, but his heart felt even heavier. It seemed that there must be really something wrong with the eggs.
Muir turned his head away, his aura feeling even heavier than before.
The leopard cubs got free from their daddyâs mouth, and, under their mommyâs protection, all of them slipped away. Their small figures limped away, looking very pitiful.
Parker felt upset and couldnât stand to stay here, either. Before Bai Qingqing reproached him, he ran out.
Throughout the entire process, Winston silently watched the educating of the leopard cubs, then looked toward Muir.
