Chapter 869 - Winston’s News (2) (2/2)

Bai Qingqing’s smile deepened. She touched the walls and said in surprise, “It’s all rocks underneath? That makes sense. Otherwise, it’d be impossible to support this place. Ssss~ It’s so cold.”

Parker immediately draped an animal skin coat over her. “It’s better to be cold than hot. Put on more clothes.”

“Mm.”

Bai Qingqing nodded in agreement. After having been roasted in the desert for a few days, her skin was aching faintly after arriving in a cold environment.

“Have some food.” Parker took out a piece of jerky and handed it to her.

Bai Qingqing panted as she leaned against the wall and ate the jerky. Curtis carried An’an while Parker rubbed around in the cave, wiping off the scent of the previous owner.

Curtis rubbed Bai Qingqing’s head and said, “You stay here. I’ll go look for Curtis. Parker will stay to protect you.”

“Why am I the one to stay at home?” asked Parker, instantly feeling dissatisfied and turning into his human form.

Curtis looked at him with eyes filled with contempt. Parker instantly felt so angry that his chest undulated intensely.

“The average strength of the beastmen here are higher than those in the outside world. You’ll die easily. and Snow will be hurt.”

Parker was stumped.

Bai Qingqing smiled and took Parker’s hand, saying, “Alright, let’s listen to Curtis. His speed is faster, and after finding Winston and the antidote, we can head back to the village earlier.”

Parker let out a “tsk” sound, then turned into his leopard form and continued rubbing around in the cave.

When Bai Qingqing was eating, Curtis stroked and tidied her hair dried from the intense sun. He used a piece of animal skin strip to tie it into a ponytail.

“I feel assured with you staying here. After you’ve eaten, get some sleep. I’ll be going out,” Curtis gently said.

Bai Qingqing looked at him, circling her arms around his neck, putting her face against his, and rubbing intimately. She said softly, “This place is eerie. You’ll have to be careful too.”
