Chapter 100 - The Rainy Season Is Coming (2/2)

Becoming mates was fine. But giving birth—and what’s more, giving birth to eggs—she really wasn’t prepared for it.

Was her wonderful youth going to be wasted on her snake children from now on? Her figure would go out of shape, and freckles would appear all over her face… she couldn’t help thinking of the females she saw when she first went to that village—that big belly hanging at their waists, those breasts so saggy they reached their belly buttons. At the thought of how she might possibly look like that after giving birth, Bai Qingqing couldn’t help but quiver.

After shaking her head to get those horrible thoughts out of her head, Bai Qingqing asked, “Heavy rainy season… that means there’s a light rainy season?”

Parker said, “Mm. The heavy rainy season happens between the hot season and the winter season. The light rainy season happens between the winter season and the hot season. Light rainy season, hot season, heavy rainy season, winter season—these four seasons make up a year.” Parker glanced at Bai Qingqing as he spoke. “Stupid! What kind of small village did you grow up in exactly? How come you don’t even know this?”

Bai Qingqing glared at Parker fiercely and said as though it went without saying, “Plenty of people don’t know this. I’m a female, why do I need to know all this?”

Parker scratched the back of his head. “That makes sense.”

“I’ll go and wash up.” Bai Qingqing walked away from the two of them and went to the river with her toothpaste and toothbrush.

Cortis followed her.

Parker raised his head and gazed at the skies, a hint of worry clouding his face. “It’s the heavy rainy season, it’d be terrible if those people don’t manage to come back before it starts.”

The river water felt super cold in the morning. After carefully washing her face, Bai Qingqing saw the indistinct fish baskets in the bottom of the river. But she didn’t dare to go down and retrieve them.

Seems like she had to tie a string to them next time so that she wouldn’t have to enter the water when she collected the baskets.

A fiery red reflection was seen on the water surface, and a few strands of soft and long hair grazed the top of Bai Qingqing’s head.

“What are you looking at?” Cortis asked as he gazed at the depths of the river.

Bai Qingqing raised her head towards Cortis. “You’re not afraid of the cold, are you?”
