She wasn’t lying. Although it was very hot in the summer, it did get very cold at night. Back then, even when she was healthy she felt a little cold at night and didn’t need to sleep with the fan or air-conditioning on or something, which was perhaps a good thing.

Perhaps it was because of her period, ever since Bai Qingqing came back from the forests, she had been more afraid of the cold than before—when she slept at night she couldn’t resist squirming into Parker’s embrace, pressing her back against his soft and hot tummy.

The thought of sleeping on Cortis’s cold body made her shiver.

Cortis squeezed his tail and brought Bai Qingqing to his body.

“Roar!” Parker transformed into a leopard and pounced on Cortis.

With a wave of his hand, Parker was sent flying, landing on the pile of grass.

This time Cortis didn’t exert much strength. Parker was no longer foreign to the experience of being thrown out by Cortis. When he fell on the ground, he didn’t let out so much as a whimper and simply kicked his heel and got back on his fours.

Sitting on Cortis’s cold and tough scales, Bai Qingqing felt a chilliness rise from below. She grabbed Cortis’s arm and said, “Stop fighting. I’ll just sleep on your body.”

Cortis clenched his fists and silently hugged Bai Qingqing for a moment, before releasing her. “You sleep on the grass.”

Bai Qingqing carefully let out an exhale and gently agreed. “Mm.”

She was self-conscious and didn’t go too far from Cortis, lying down on the pile of grass near him.

Cortis didn’t roll into a circle like before when he slept. Instead, his tail was squeezed into a bunch, and the softer part of his body—the tail—was curled on Bai Qingqing’s ankle, whereas his upper body laid on the ground. His eyes remained open as he quietly gazed at Bai Qingqing.

Parker was satisfied. He laid down next to Bai Qingqing and placed his leopard paw over her hand.

“Let’s sleep,” Bai Qingqing said uneasily, then closed her eyes and tried to shut out everything.
