Chapter 357 - Regarded as an Imaginary Enemy (2/2)

“Scram! I’m not eating your pine nuts!”

Hearing the scream of the female from afar, Bai Qingqing looked towards the source of that voice and saw, to her surprise, Alva being driven out from Bella’s wooden house.

Sensing Bai Qingqing’s gaze on him, Alva looked towards her. Upon seeing this, Bella walked out of the house and rolled her eyes at the sight of her.

“Scram!” Bella suddenly hollered. No idea if she was targeting Bai Qingqing or Alva.

The panicked Alva knelt before Bella on one knee, his tone subservient. “You said you would mate with me after you go into heat this year. Are you going back on your word? Why?”

“Go and pursue her, I don’t want you anymore,” Bella said coldly.

Bai Qingqing was stunned.

Alva glanced at Bai Qingqing with a gaze that made her shiver. There were resentment and fury in his eyes. Bai Qingqing thought to herself, “Oh no.”

She didn’t stay on to listen in on their conversation any longer and simply went down the tree carefully, before running out of the village.

Muir was standing tall and straight by the river for god knows how long. Upon seeing Bai Qingqing, his wooden-statue-like face slowly revealed a faint smile.

“You’re here.”

“Good morning.” Bai Qingqing forced a smile. She sat down by the river and sighed.

Muir also sat down. He showed Bai Qingqing a piece of animal skin that carried a faint bloody smell. “I made this yesterday. It’s not very well done, but it should be alright to sleep on top of it. I’ll bring you animal skin of better quality tomorrow.”

“Thanks.”

Bai Qingqing’s coldness made Muir’s expression turn cold. Gripping Bai Qingqing’s shoulders, he asked, “Are you unhappy? Did they mistreat you?”

Bai Qingqing looked up at him and shook her head after a moment’s hesitation.

“It’s just that I miss Parker and Curtis,” Bai Qingqing said.

She didn’t wish to cause Muir any more trouble. She decided she would just avoid Bella and Alva in the future.

Muir let go of her and smiled bitterly.
