âCold...â
Bai Qingqing broke out in goosebumps the moment she climbed out from Curtisâs tail. She reached for her clothes while saying, âThe sky is already dark.â
âIâve boiled water. Donât look for your clothes. Come over and wash up.â
Parkerâs voice rang out from the darkness.
Bai Qingqingâs movements paused as she looked at the pitch-black house. She tried to call out, âWinston?â
âIâm here.â Winstonâs voice rang out from another corner.
Bai Qingqing quietly shrank back into Curtisâs embrace. âItâs too dark. I canât see anything. Bring out the light.â
Winston was seated next to the clothing chest. Hearing that, he immediately opened the wooden chest, and the light inside radiated out. As the air was dense with water vapor, the glow from the light was also shrouded by a layer of fog.
The young girlâs face, hidden amongst the snakeâs body, was flushed. The vague light rays caused her face to appear even more gentle. Both a young girlâs childishness and a motherly gentleness could be seen on her face, and she looked so beautiful that the beastmen couldnât turn their faces away.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Although they could see everything clearly before there was light, they now felt that their mate was even more beautiful.
Bai Qingqing felt unsettled with the three pairs of scorching gazes on her. She bit her teeth and eventually climbed out.
Parker brought her warm water and washed the towel for her.
âHehe... Itâs so cold today.â Bai Qingqing didnât know what to say and quickly started washing up.
She had been mates with Parker and Curtis for very long, but for Winston, they were similar to being newlyweds. She felt shy to be naked in front of him.
Curtis was very happy to be in the damp environment. He moved away from behind her and went to breathe in the even more damp air outside.
Bai Qingqing instantly lost her backing and was completely exposed.
She vaguely felt that Winston was looking at her, and she felt so nervous that she didnât know how she should wash up anymore. In the end, Parker saw that Bai Qingqing was so cold that she had broken out in goosebumps that he snatched the animal skin to help her wash up.
After putting on clothes, Bai Qingqing felt a little less embarrassed. She threw a glance toward Winston with a bright red face, asking, âYouâre... sleeping here today?â
Winstonâs eyes dimmed, and he spoke in a low voice, âThe weather is starting to turn cold. Weâve discussed this. Iâll be moving up here to sleep. Youâll feel even warmer that way.â
He shouldnât have agreed to this. It wasnât as if he was a male that Bai Qingqing had willingly accepted. She must be unwilling to accept this.
Bai Qingqing didnât reply immediately. This made Winston feel even more that he was despised.
In fact, Bai Qingqing was only anxious.
Let her feel warmer? Did that mean that he was going to sleep together with her? Oh god! How was she going to sleep tonight?
Only at this moment did Bai Qingqing feel that she had become mates with Winston.
âHmph!â Parker let out a displeased snort, showing his dissatisfaction with this matter. Given Winstonâs stuffy character, there was no way that heâd raise such a request. This meant that Curtis was the one who had brought this up.
The atmosphere was too tense, and Bai Qingqing wanted to look for a topic. She asked, âWhen did you guys talk about this? Why donât I know about it?â
âJust now. You didnât hear it?â Parker seemed to have discovered something interesting and looked at her expression in amusement.
âJust now?â Bai Qingqing had a bad feeling about this.
She had just ended things with Curtis and then washed up. How was it possible for this to have taken place just now?
Parker grinned. âYou really didnât hear it.
âWhen you were about to end, Curtis told me to boil water and prepare some food. He also mentioned this in passing.â
Bai Qingqing was speechless. My god! He wasnât focused! Bad rating!
She threw a glare at Curtisâs back view, scolding him non-stop in her heart to conceal her embarrassment.
