Chapter 189 - Defeating Shuu (1/2)

“You’ve eaten?”

“En.” Bai Qingqing walked over, sat down next to Curtis, picked up the bamboo basket at the side, took a look, and asked, “What do you think of this size? How long can a snake baby sleep inside for?”

This bamboo basket had a diameter of close to one meter and wasn’t much different from a winnowing basket. The bamboo strips on the borders were loose and could be given the finishing touch at any moment.

Curtis didn’t look at the bamboo basket but turned his gaze onto Bai Qingqing, saying in a gentle voice, “It’ll be fine if it’s enough to store eggs. Snake beastmen grow very fast after breaking out from their shells.”

“I see!” Bai Qingqing imagined a scene of the entire house filled with miniature Curtises and shivered. The house was really going to be turned into a snake den.

Bai Qingqing’s imagination ran wild as she started to give the bamboo basket its finishing touches. After spending over an hour, she finally completed the nest for the snake babies.

Food for the afternoon was hunted by Winston. There was another round of snatching during the meal, and even Bai Qingqing was made to eat a lot more than usual.

Three days passed by like that. Parker’s injuries recovered completely and Winston left.

Winston was a beastman of few words. However, after he left, the place seemed a lot quieter.

Bai Qingqing’s stomach had bulged up a little, and it became even more obvious when she was seated. Parker put his hand into Bai Qingqing’s clothes, touching her stomach gently. Suddenly, his other hand started to take off his skirt.

Bai Qingqing quickly tightened her grasp on her clothes and took out Parker’s hand that was in her clothes. “What are you thinking of doing?”

“I’m going out to hunt.” Parker stretched out comfortably, and various parts of his body started to release cracking sounds. “I haven’t hunted for three days. Even my bones are starting to feel stiff.”

“It’s too early. I still have a lot of food. Wait a little more before going out.” Bai Qingqing picked up the skirt that Parker casually tossed to the side and patted off the dust on it.

Parker smiled. “I’ll take a walk around and see if I can find wild fruits and the grass that you like to eat.”
