Chapter 665: Winston Came Back to Warm the Bed
Bai Qingqing had no idea how intense the battle was out there. The only thing she was aware of was that she never got to see Winston during the day, but he would show up punctually at night before bed. The instant he laid upon his nest, he would doze off. And he would get up right after Parker prepared breakfast for her in the morning.
She had a suspicious feeling Winston deliberately came back to warm up her bed.
Occasionally, a floating beast would slip into the village here and there. Look, one was down there battling a beastman.
Roar!
The leopard’s roars sounded a little panicked. Thinking it was Parker, the worried Bai Qingqing went to the entrance to take a look.
A leopard was deadlocked in battle with a floating beast much larger than himself. As the floating beast’s defensive capabilities were high, the leopard had difficulty sinking his claws into his opponent. Judging from his physique, Bai Qingqing felt that the leopard wasn’t Parker.
“Harvey, is that you?” Bai Qingqing called out to him.
Roar~ The leopard glanced up at her. This moment of letting his guard down nearly gave the floating beast a chance to successfully sneak an attack on him. The leopard only narrowly managed to dodge this fatal blow by retreating several meters.
Then, another leopard came pouncing over, leaping onto the floating beast’s back directly.
Bai Qingqing could tell that was Parker at one glance. Comparatively, she suddenly felt that Parker was extremely valiant.
Despite having a powerful bite, floating beasts had feeble strength when it came to opening their mouths. Parker only had to pin his claw upon the floating beast’s mouth, and it wasn’t able to open it anymore. It was now at Parker’s mercy.
Several minutes later, Parker bit the floating beast to death and dragged it back home.
After panting for a while, Harvey picked up a bag lying by the side with his jaws and trailed behind Parker.
There was a fragmented piece of cloth on the ground, from the skirt he accidentally burst through when he abruptly transformed into a leopard to counter the floating beast’s attack.
Leopards without any animal stripes had pretty much the same level of capability as a wild leopard. If the medicinal herbs hadn’t fallen beside the floating beast, he would long have climbed up a tree to preserve his life.
“Great, we get to eat floating beast meat again.” Bai Qingqing clapped her hands and cheered from the entrance.
Just as she was wondering how they could finish this enormous creature by themselves, Parker transformed into a human and ripped the floating beast apart in a few strokes. With the heavy and solid shell removed, its size shrunk by half, and even then half of what remained were bones.
Seems like just enough food to satisfy Parker at one meal.
Roar~ Harvey called out to him and tossed the bag of medicinal herbs beside him.
Parker looked up at Bai Qingqing and said, “Qingqing, toss down an animal skin skirt. Harvey’s going to do a check-up on you.”
“Oh.” Bai Qingqing quickly turned around in search of a skirt. She found one that Parker didn’t wear much at the bottom of the chest and threw it down the tree hole.
Harvey transformed into a human at an angle not visible to her and put on the skirt, then climbed up the tree in an unperturbed manner.
Doctors were the only males who could enter the homes of other beastmen freely.
Still, Bai Qingqing was worried. She instantly informed Curtis about it. The latter responded by hiding his head within the coils of his body, because you know, “out of sight, out of mind.”
Harvey came up more slowly than Bai Qingqing had imagined. But that was probably because she was used to the speed at which her males moved, hence the illusion of slowness. In reality, a leopard climbed up a tree faster than other beastmen.
“How’s the fetal movement now?” Harvey asked as he gazed at her tummy.
She replied happily, “The baby moves once every day.”
“How long between each movement?” Harvey’s question was straight to the point.
Her expression turned a tad bitter. Having been pregnant with leopard cubs before, she naturally knew by contrast how quiet this baby was being.
“Once half a day I guess. I think maybe she’s lazier,” replying with a smile, Bai Qingqing’s words were meant to convince Harvey, as well as comfort herself internally.
Harvey’s brows could first be seen furrowing deeply, before instantly easing. He comforted. “It’s great that the baby moves now. I’ve picked some herbs that are nourishing for pregnant women and have already given it to Parker. Do remember to eat them.”
“Mm. Thanks,” Bai Qingqing said gratefully.
