Chapter 72 - Three People Sleeping in a House (1/2)
Playing along, Bai Qingqing nodded and said, “Thank you, then. I feel bad that you’re doing so much for me even though we’re barely acquainted.”
Without turning around, Moore replied with his back facing her, “It’s only right that a male takes care of a female.”
Bai Qingqing pouted, chomping down hard on her apple, venting her displeasure towards this world.
Why weren’t there such good men in her world?
Just to be clear, she wasn’t displeased with the males on Earth. She was aware that both sides needed to contribute to a relationship. But contrasting these two worlds, she felt embarrassed as an earthling.
Even if she had the opportunity to go back now, she couldn’t bear to leave!
Traitor!
The aroma of the roasted meat floated over. Shortly after, Moore came to Bai Qingqing with a chicken that was roasted to a golden color. “You can eat this. I didn’t bring along salt with me, so it might not taste very good.”
“It’s so fragrant, I’m sure it’s delicious.” Bai Qingqing politely took the chicken from him, lowering her eyes while doing so, in case she saw something that gave her sty.
Usually, when out in the wilderness, the males would do all they could to display their reproductive organs in order to attract the gazes of females.
Indeed, as one of the least romantic beastman species, when Moore realized the female was avoiding looking at that spot, he instantly transformed into an eagle and went to stand outside the shed like a statue.
The taste of the roasted chicken was pretty good—crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Even though no seasonings were added, Bai Qingqing finished it completely, and much of her strength was restored.
The horde of giant beasts was still creating an earthquake below the cliff. From time to time rocks broke off from the side of the cliff, adding an invisible layer of oppression to the area.
The skies gradually darkened and the three moons made their appearance.
Bai Qingqing and Parker slept in the shed, while Moore stood outside by himself, the night wind curling up the feathers on his head.
Bai Qingqing hesitated for a long time, undecided as to whether she should ask Moore to come in and sleep.
