As for the leopard cubs, Bai Qingqing didn’t have to instruct them not to say anything since they weren’t present initially.

Molly’s gaze moved back and forth between them before nodding earnestly.

Slow to react, it was only then that euphoric joy erupted in Winston’s heart. The corners of his lips lifted stiffly, making his face appear grotesque.

“No, I did something wrong. I ought to be punished for it. I will tell them the truth.”

Bai Qingqing glared at him. Her eyes, which were reddened and swollen from crying, didn’t look intimidating at all. Instead, it made her appear so frail and delicate that it induced heartache in others.

Winston couldn’t help but hold her more tightly and plant a kiss on the top of her head.

“Do you wish to die?” Bai Qingqing felt intense pain from her lower body. No longer able to think straight, she simply blurted out whatever came to mind. “Then, wouldn’t I have suffered in vain?”

Both Winston and Molly were rendered speechless.

Bai Qingqing clamped her thighs together. That part was giving her a throbbing pain still, and from time to time a scalding substance would flow from between.

After some thought, Bai Qingqing said to Winston seriously, “This is our secret. You are not to tell them.”

Secret…

Winston felt a warmth surge into his heart, coursing through his veins and emanating throughout his body.

With these words, even if he were to die, he would go without regrets.

“Okay.” Winston rubbed his chin against the top of Bai Qingqing’s head and said in his deep voice, “For you, I will make sure to stay alive. I won’t tell them.”

Bai Qingqing heaved a sigh of relief. She was afraid that the clueless Winston would tell them everything. If Curtis came to know how it happened, he would likely explode on the spot.

“Then, let’s go back.” Winston lifted Bai Qingqing horizontally. Her body, which felt light as a feather in his arms, made him feel a sharp stab of pain in his heart. It seemed like she had grown yet thinner.

Bai Qingqing let out a startled cry and hurriedly shielded her chest with both hands. She then looked towards her lower body and shifted one of her hands from her chest to cover her lower body. “Hey, surely you’re not thinking of carrying me back like this? Quickly let me down.”

As she spoke, she cast a glance at Molly. Thankfully, the latter wasn’t looking at her.
