Beauty and the Beasts - Chapter 631

Chapter 631: Not Allowed to Find an Eagle Beastman Mate

All of a sudden Bai Qingqing felt like an extra-large light bulb[1]. Hence, she hurriedly left the tree hole.

What happened to Molly made Bai Qingqing feel a sense of self-reproach towards Curtis once more, for nearly having canceled her spousal relationship with him. It was too scary.

Aye, I should treat Curtis nicer when I get back and stop making things difficult for him.

Alva, perched on a tree branch, must have heard the news of Molly waking up, for his expression eased greatly.

Bai Qingqing asked, “Didn’t Winston come back with you?”

“Ah!” Alva shrieked as he revealed an embarrassed expression. “I’d forgotten all about him!”

Bai Qingqing’s mouth twitched. For him to forget about such a big tiger, how could he still deny the fact that he liked Molly?

“Does Winston know you found Molly? Could he still be searching outside?”

Alva thought about it for a moment, then replied with uncertainty, “Ooh… when I succeeded in rescuing Molly many beastmen saw that. Winston only had to ask to know about it. I think he should be back already.”

Bai Qingqing glared at him. “If he doesn’t return in a few days’ time, you’ve got to go back there to look for him.”

Alva sighed helplessly. “Got it.”

Seeing his fatigued face, Bai Qingqing said, “Have you eaten? Hurry up and go eat something, then take a rest. It’s not like Molly will get well faster if you stand guard here.”

“Who says I’m guarding by Molly?” Alva instantly rebutted. “I’m just tired and taking a short break. Leaving right away.”

With that, he transformed into a peacock, flapped his wings, and flew away.

Tsk. Even beastmen say one thing and mean another.

Bai Qingqing gazed at the ground, her slight phobia of heights giving her a bout of dizziness, making her retreat a step. At the thought of how she would need Parker to carry her down, Bai Qingqing couldn’t help feeling envious. “How nice to be able to fly.”

Parker, whose jealousy was triggered, said, “I can climb as fast as one flies. Come over.”

“Aye, don’t be in too much of a hurry.” Before Bai Qingqing finished her words, she was pressed against the tree trunk and held in Parker’s arms. “Be careful… ah!”

They were three to four meters above the ground. Parker’s fingernails suddenly loosened their grip on the tree bark and leaped down the tree.

Bai Qingqing shrieked.

In midair, Parker lifted her horizontally and landed steadily on the ground.

Bai Qingqing let out a heave of relief, her mind finally put to ease.

“Wasn’t that faster than flying?” Parker said gleefully as he walked.

Bai Qingqing glared at Parker. “Can’t you take care of a pregnant woman?”

All of them were like this!

The fact that females tend to die easily in this world isn’t because they’re fragile and delicate, but because the males are too brutish!

Parker suddenly said while walking, “I climb very fast on a tree. You don’t have to find a male that can fly.”

Bai Qingqing flicked her finger against his nose. “Since when did I say I was going to find other mates? You’re thinking too much.”

“As the village strengthens, the first to join us will probably be the eagle tribe.”

Parker’s face was clouded with worry. Eagle beastmen flew faster than peacock beastmen. He hoped that Qingqing wouldn’t choose to accept an eagle beastman for the sake of convenience.

Bai Qingqing turned around, caught between laughter and tears. “In the future, wherever I go, I will bring you guys along. Whoever dares to pursue me, you guys can go and scare them off.”

“Mm.” Parker’s expression turned sunny, and his steps became more vigorous.

The din from earlier woke up Curtis from his sleep. When Bai Qingqing got home, he was sewing clothes. Most of the thirty plus meters snakeskin was gone, transformed into pretty clothes neatly stacked in the wooden case.

Yesterday Bai Qingqing had asked Curtis to sew a flower on the chest area of the clothes, and now he was trying it out.

Bai Qingqing twirled her hair and cleared her throat, then said, “Is it going smoothly? If it can’t be done, just forget about it. It’s too hard.”
