âThank you.â Winston only gave a short reply before continuing to head forward.
He was thankful that he had gotten to know Bai Qingqing before this. Otherwise, when faced against this fondness that he had wished to get but couldnât, he would definitely give away his heart without any reservations. If he were to meet Bai Qingqing later on, heâd definitely regret it for life.
Winstonâs heart was abnormally calm, and there was an unprecedented feeling of ease.
In the future, heâd just watch over his beloved female in peace.
Jean took off the blue chiffon covering her face, revealing a small fair face that was a lot more exquisite and elegant-looking than the other females in the City of Beastmen, lowering her head shyly. When she didnât hear any reply after a long time had passed, she gradually raised her head to take a look, only to see that Winston was taking big strides forward once again. She had no idea if he had turned to take a look at her.
âBai Qingqing has just woken up. You can take a seat in the main hall while Iâll go call her,â Winston said as he walked in front.
Jean was very satisfied with Winstonâs reaction. It could be that her judgment for beauty was different from the other females in the City of Beastmen, but she really did have a fondness for Winston. She had been observing him for very long as well, knowing that he had a cold face but a warm heart. Although it wasnât shown on his face, he might be feeling elated inside.
He had even forgotten to continue walking earlier. This was something that even Rosa, whom Winston had watched over since young, hadnât been able to do.
â¦
âThe ape kingâs mate is looking for me?â Bai Qingqing spat out the gurgling water, licked her clean and white teeth, before saying with a hint of suspicion, âWhat is he up to now?â
âItâs better to go take a look. Sheâs a female, after all. Even if the ape king is killed, his female would still have to continue living in the City of Beastmen,â Winston said.
âMm.â
When Bai Qingqing saw Jeanâs appearance, she was stunned by her beauty, like a female from a village who hadnât seen much of the world before.
Wowâ A beauty! A great beauty! She has blue hair too! How cool!
Bai Qingqing had seen red-haired fox tribeâs female, yellow-haired leopard tribeâs female, as well as orange-red-haired fox tribeâs female. However, this was the first time she had met a blue-haired female.
What tribe was she from? Was there a beastman with blue fur? Peacock?
Bai Qingqing had no idea if it was because she had seen too many ugly females that her expectations toward beauty had dropped. Anyway, she felt that this person was very beautiful!
It was just that she seemed to have a feeling that this person looked a little sharp and mean.
However, at the thought that her mate was the ape king, Bai Qingqing felt as if there was a herd of llama running across in her heart. This was really⦠a case of a beautiful female paired with an ugly male!
While Bai Qingqing was lost in her thoughts, Jean was also pickily assessing her. However, unlike Bai Qingqing, her assessment was with a hint of comparison.
Jean was too confident. She didnât believe that there was a female who could be more beautiful than her. Therefore, when she heard that an extremely beautiful female had come to the village, she didnât go to check her out. Only after seeing Bai Qingqing today did she realize that she was completely different from the other land-based females. This caused her expression to turn a little distorted for an instant.
Just as Bai Qingqing was looking at her with a hint of doubt, Jean had already adjusted her facial expression. She took off her blue chiffon, revealing her snow-white skin. Her clothes were also different from what the females in the City of Beastmen wore. Her tube top and skirt all seemed to be made from silk-like fabric.
She especially threw a glance toward Winston, only to realize that Winstonâs gaze had always been on Bai Qingqing. It was only when she looked toward him did he look back.
Jeanâs heart sank and she suddenly didnât feel very confident about herself anymore.
If her opponent was someone comparable to her, given that her opponent had already gotten the advantage of making the first move, it might really be hard for her to snatch Winston over.
Bai Qingqing was distracted by Jeanâs chiffon fabric. She took a look and said, âHello, Iâm Bai Qingqing. You were looking for me?â
