Chapter 745 - No Male Will Dare to Want You (1/2)
“You already have a bad reputation for abandoning a spouse. If I leave now, no male will dare to want you,” said Alva.
Molly halted in her actions and uttered in a high-pitched voice, “You’re threatening me?”
Seeing as she had stopped hurling stone fruits at him, Alva responded with a smug expression. “Hmph.”
Unbeknownst to him, Molly had long regarded this matter as a test her admirers had to go through, so she simply didn’t care. The very next moment, she started throwing stone fruits at him more ferociously.
Alva cried furiously as he dodged. “Aye! Why are you like this? I’m really leaving, huh!”
“Sure, go ahead and leave right away. Scram to the stone mountain to join them in the mining!” Molly screamed.
Alva stuck his head into the nest and covered himself with the grass. “I’m not leaving. No way am I leaving before the mining is completed!”
Molly nearly exploded from the anger. With her big belly, she went to yank him up. “Get up. Who told you you could sleep in the nest? If you want to sleep, go sleep in a corner!”
After this fiasco, Molly was so exhausted that she fell asleep shortly after lying down.
Alva turned his head sideways and glanced at her, then stealthily got up and laid an animal skin blanket over her. He let out a sigh but did as Molly ordered, piling up a thick nest in the corner using dry grass.
Meanwhile, in the iron-smelting room, seeing as Edgar’s countenance wasn’t all that great, Bai Qingqing didn’t ask him any questions. She planned on going to Molly after the cold season was over to ask her personally.
She peered into the underground vault and saw that Winston was turning on the furnace and watching over the fire. His majestic body gave off a red glow under the illumination from the fire, as though a layer of oil was applied over it.
Bai Qingqing walked up behind him, then sat down on the floor and jumped down.
“Winston!”
The underground vault was square-shaped, and the furnace pit opposite looked perfectly well concealed, and there was even a layer of rocks inside. But once Bai Qingqing jumped down, she felt like she was in a giant oven, making her involuntarily narrow her eyes.
This hotness felt really pleasing.
The unique scent of coal burned in the air. The moment that scent entered her nostrils, Bai Qingqing felt an uncomfortable sensation in her lungs, making her cover her nose with one hand right away and cough twice.
