The sound of the heavy rainstorm and strong gales was the background music at night as if cutting off the tree hole from the rest of the world.
Bai Qingqingâs body stiffened, and she lay on her back. Looking up, she felt that Winston appeared even more tall and big than usual.
âYouâre here.â
Winston then walked over, moving the hands and feet from the same side in tandem while wearing a solemn expression.
Bai Qingqing blinked, not in the state of mind to laugh at him. She was also very nervous.
Winston lay down next to Bai Qingqing, covering the little bit of blanket onto his body, and tugged at it in passing.
This tug seemed to have a counteracting force. The blanket that could cover half of his body, to begin with, ended up covering only one-third of his body.
âGrowl!â Parkerâs eyes squinted. There was a small pile of the blanket on the side of the wall.
Bai Qingqing: The fight for the blanket is a little intense!
Even she was getting in the wind from the side close to Winston.
Bai Qingqing poked Winston and said, âGo get another animal skin here. This blanket isnât enough.â
âAlright,â Winston replied and immediately got up to walk over to the wooden chest.
Animal skin and clothes were neatly stacked up in the wooden chest. Out of habit, Winston picked the worst one. He was just about to pick it up when he recalled that he had to share his blanket with Bai Qingqing. He hesitated for a moment before picking up a better piece.
After returning to the bed, Winston lay out the blanket, using a large part to cover Bai Qingqing.
Bai Qingqing felt heavy to have two blankets on her. She had no idea if it was out of nervousness or from the heat that her face, exposed outside, turned red as a peach.
Curtisâs shadow flickered in the tree hole. He used a grass pile to block the entrance, and the wind instantly stopped entering. Only a small amount of wind entered from the tree hole on the lower level.
âGo to sleep. Iâll keep the light?â Curtis asked.
Bai Qingqing nodded. âEn, help the cubs block the entrance to their tree hole as well.â
âOkay.â
Curtis placed the wooden rod that had been embedded with a luminous ball into the wooden chest first, and the nest was instantly shrouded by darkness. Bai Qingqing swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
She could sense the heat coming from Winstonâs body and grabbed Parkerâs hand nervously.
Parkerâs lips curled up slightly. Thinking of how Qingqing could be holding onto Winstonâs hand as well, he said, âGive them both to me.â
She threw him a sideways glance and mouthed the words silently, âHow am I going to sleep then?â
Parker turned and faced her, reaching out and holding onto Bai Qingqingâs other hand. His arm was long, it was effortless for him to do this.
Bai Qingqing was afraid that Winston would notice and quickly threw his hand back, letting out a low bellow, âQuickly sleep!â
Parker drew back his hand and changed to used his arms to hold onto her arm on his side, sleeping like a koala bear.
Bai Qingqing closed her eyes and her mind wandered away. She heard Winstonâs breathing, awake and vigorous. She lay there for a few hours before she fell into a deep sleep.
After Bai Qingqing went to sleep, Winstonâs body and mind relaxed. He turned to face her and quietly looked at her sleeping.
During this period, Winston had always been working at night. He slept a lot in the day and couldnât sleep at night.
After looking for very long, he summoned the courage to move his hand closer and closer toward Bai Qingqingâs blanket, touching her bulging stomach.
It was so round!
Even though no one noticed this, Winstonâs heart couldnât help but palpitate. He stroked it gently through the snakeskin.
âUhhhââ Bai Qingqing let out a soft groan and stretched her body.
Winston drew back his hand as if he had been electrocuted.
