The dazed Bai Qingqing could sense the strong rays of sunlight as she let out a soft moan.

“Snow…”

“Mm… Curtis?”

A muffled sound—that seemingly came from behind a wall of water—entered her ears.

With much effort, Bai Qingqing lifted her sore eyelids, and in her vision appeared a blurry human figure with a head of smooth and straight red long hair.

She felt joy erupt in her heart, and she wanted to speak. But the instant she opened her mouth, she spat out a large mouthful of salty seawater.

“Great, you’re finally awake.”

In her vision appeared another golden head—it was Parker.

Bai Qingqing looked at him, then towards the red hair, and only then confirmed that it was indeed Curtis. She was so agitated that she wanted to get up, but her body instantly fell into a cold, but sturdy embrace that made one feel a sense of security.

“Snow, you’re awake.”

Curtis’s smooth chin grazed against the top of Bai Qingqing’s head as he continuously patted her back with his chilly hand.

Bai Qingqing struggled powerlessly in Curtis’s arms a little, and he immediately let go of her. He cupped his hands around her face and took a close look at her.

Bai Qingqing also gazed back at him. She blinked her eyes hard and saw that Curtis’s face was clean and spotless, without a single animal stripe.

“Your face… why aren’t there any animal stripes?” The startled Bai Qingqing yelped out loud. Could it be that Curtis had lost all his powers?

Also, there was something not quite right with their voices. And her own voice also sounded kind of funny. Am I hallucinating? Ouch, head hurts so bad.

Seeing that she was fine, Curtis’s heart was put to ease. He explained calmly, “I had a breakthrough.”
