Chapter 790 - The Leopard Cubs Throw a Temper (2/2)
Even though she couldn’t understand what they were saying, Bai Qingqing knew they were teaching her how to start a fire. Feeling warm and soft inside, she fondly rubbed them on their heads vigorously.
“Mommy remembers how to do it now.”
The cubs didn’t believe that and raised their heads to look at her.
Bai Qingqing picked up two rocks and said, “Strike these two rocks against each other, right?”
Roar!
The cubs nodded in unison, seemingly heaving a sigh of relief and proud of themselves for succeeding in teaching their mommy.
They reached out their claws and pried the rocks from Bai Qingqing’s hands, wanting to light a fire with their short fingers. With a serious countenance, they made “clang” sounds as they rubbed the two rocks against each other on the ground, as though they were playing with marbles.
Bai Qingqing simply let them be. Pretending to be reliant on them, she waited for a while, before saying, “You’d better let Mommy do it. You three can’t transform into humans yet, and your claws aren’t nimble enough.”
Howl~
Eldest let out a regretful howl.
Second sighed regretfully.
Third dug his claws into the ground regretfully.
All three were regretful, yet at the same time excited and proud of themselves for being able to render this “great help” to their mommy.
“You’re so obedient, my babies,” Bai Qingqing said with a smile. She picked up the two flints on the ground and started striking them against each other while holding back the pain.
Bai Qingqing had succeeded in striking a flint before, but as the rocks were damp from the weather today, add to the fact that she was injured, she tried striking for a long time but didn’t manage to produce any sparks.
Forget it, she decided to wait for the little snake to come back.
Giving up, Bai Qingqing tossed the rocks to one side.
“When your Brother Snake comes back later, don’t get into a fight with him, okay?” instructed Bai Qingqing.
The leopard cubs turned their heads away disgruntledly.
“It’d be three against one if you beat him up. How unfair is that? Don’t you feel embarrassed bullying your older brother?” Knowing that little boys were prideful, Bai Qingqing deliberately put it this way.
