Chapter 283 - Eudora Wants to Go Upstairs (1/2)

As Bai Qingqing walked out of the room and breathed in the fresh air outside, she realized there was a stench inside. She sneaked a peek at Curtis, then hurriedly opened the door.

“Didn’t Winston come up to sleep?” Bai Qingqing asked as she glanced at Winston’s room.

Curtis pinned Bai Qingqing down on the stone chair and combed her hair using the wooden comb Bai Qingqing brought from the modern ages. “He’s on the fifth level accompanying the little snakes.”

Bai Qingqing nodded and thought to herself: Seems like this thing can’t be done often—every time we do it, it causes quite a stir in the family. Thankfully, Curtis and Parker generally wouldn’t ask for it.

After Curtis finished combing Bai Qingqing’s hair, he stroked her gently. “The food is more or less ready. I’ll go and bring it over for you.”

“You’ve already cooked? Then why did you ask Parker to go out and hunt?” Bai Qingqing glanced at Curtis. His gaze softened, and he said, “To let him vent off the excess energy.”

Embarrassed and awkward, Bai Qingqing lowered her head and fiddled with her fingers.

After Curtis left, Bai Qingqing instantly revealed her true form, slumping lifelessly like a lump of noodles on the chair.

“My waist feels so sore!” Bai Qingqing massaged her waist with a frown. Parker was to be blamed for this—he had moved about so much, every time they finished having sex she would feel really sore. Even copulating with Curtis for one day and one night didn’t make her feel quite as sore.

Bai Qingqing got up and moved her muscles a little. She accidentally saw a few carved marks on the rails, so she walked towards that.

When was it damaged? She had never seen this in the past.

There were only two ants crawling on the floor, and they stopped in their tracks when they moved past the spot underneath the carved marks.

Feeling bored, Bai Qingqing squatted down to look at the ants.

She saw the ants touching the ground with their feelers, after which one ant fell lifelessly to the ground following the other.

“Eh?” Seeing that the ants weren’t getting up after a long while, she reached out and touched the ants gingerly with the fingernail on her index finger. The ants appeared to have dried up in the wind with stiff bodies and were completely unresponsive.
