Chapter 130 - The Rival in Love Nearly Died (2/2)
“Then why did you nearly kill him? But it’s just as well. I guess Hugh won’t be coming to look for me again,” Bai Qingqing said with a smile. After she finished speaking, she could keenly sense that Cortis, whose countenance had slightly improved, now wore a dark expression again.
“Hugh?”
Bai Qingqing had said so much, yet this was the only point Cortis caught.
Bai Qingqing felt like slapping herself. She corrected herself. “That wolf beastman.”
Cortis decided not to pursue the matter.
In order to bring back the thorny fruit, Parker remained in his human form both ways, so he was gone for a slightly longer period of time. He scraped away the mud on his feet before entering the house.
“Qingqing, I’m back. I brought back the thorny fruit for you.”
Bai Qingqing raised her head in delight. Looking at Parker entering the house, she said, “Hurry up and show it to me.”
When Parker got drenched in the rain, his hair would stick to his head. Water kept dripping down his face and from his chin.
He handed a green fruit the size of a peanut to Bai Qingqing and said, “Be careful of the thorns.”
The obedient Bai Qingqing carefully picked up the thorny fruit.
True to its name, this fruit was full of thorns. After taking a careful look at it, Bai Qingqing realized that this thing was very similar to a kind of shrub found in the modern ages.
She didn’t know what that shrub was called, but it was seen by the roadsides everywhere. After the fruit withered, the thorns would become sharp and prickly. The worst thing about it was that once it got onto someone’s hair, it was extremely difficult to remove.
But this soft and green ball of thorns seemed like it could be used to brush teeth.
1“Hurry up and try it,” Parker said with a look of anticipation.
Cortis also glanced towards the thing she was holding.
Bai Qingqing had wanted to soak it in water and use it tomorrow. However, at Parker’s request, she nodded and agreed.
