  After dashing out of the stone castle, Parker bumped into Memi in the back garden, who was on her way to bring the cotton flowers to Bai Qingqing.

  “Baby, where are you going?” Memi asked.

  Parker pouted, displeased. “Roar!” [Qingqing likes that snake beastman.]

  Memi was a leopard female, so she could understand the leopards’ language. Her face turned cold instantly. “Baby, you’re being too wilful. It’s already overboard of me to help you make Qingqing try to remove the beast mark. Do you know how much agony an abandoned male will be in?”


  “Roar?” The rage in Parker’s eyes dispelled a little as he gazed at his mother with a baffled look.

  Memi said, “The beast mark is the root a male plants in a female. It will make the male instinctively come near his mate. Once the beast mark vanishes, the male will be like a tree with its roots chopped off. Even though he might appear fine on the surface, regardless of where he goes, he won’t feel a sense of belonging.”


  “Roar!” Parker lowered his head.

  Memi patted the leopard’s head. “My good boy, stop forcing her. It’s impossible for a female to have only one mate. This is disadvantageous to the continuation of the beastmen species.”


  Parker sobbed twice, then wrinkled his nose and turned around to look behind him.

  Bai Qingqing was standing at the back door of the stone castle with the honey in her hands, a panicked expression on her face.

  Bai Qingqing, who had never fallen in love before, found it hard to accept this sudden marriage.

  Memi also turned around, having noticed where Parker was looking, and saw Bai Qingqing walking towards her. “Why did you come out? Quickly go back into the house, you’re still bleeding.”


  Bai Qingqing managed a smile with much difficulty, but it looked uglier than crying. “I came to look for Parker. He was quite badly stung by bees.”


  Without so much as a glance at Parker, Memi pulled Bai Qingqing back into the house. “Just let him be. This minor injury is nothing to a male.”


  Parker responded with a growl, then jogged to chase after the two of them. The leopard swung his tail a little in an attempt to force himself to look cheerful.

  After sending her back into the house, Memi felt it wasn’t appropriate for her to meddle in their intimate affairs, so she said “Take good care of Qingqing” to Parker before heading out.

  Parker transformed into a human and attentively arranged the cotton flowers, then said, “Qingqing, part your legs. I’ll help you put the cotton on.”


  Bai Qingqing’s scalp tightened. But with her hands filled with honey, she couldn’t very well do it herself.

  After living one to two months in this world, Bai Qingqing had become wilder. In her feeble, yet firm tone, she told him, “Then you close your eyes and don’t peek!”


  “You’re my female. I don’t care, I’m going to look!” Parker then licked the honey, yet his eyes were staring fixedly at the spot between her thighs covered by her short skirt.

  Bai Qingqing smacked honey onto Parker’s face, taking the chance to help him diminish the inflammation. “Then forget it. Find me some water, I’ll wash my hands and do it myself.”


  Parker was about to say something before Bai Qingqing said seriously, “Also, stop saying I’m your female.”


  Since she had already become mates with Cortis, she should stop giving Parker hope. She couldn’t accept having two husbands.

  The stunned Parker asked in a panicky voice, “Why? I no longer mind you having other males.”


  “But I mind.” Bai Qingqing lowered her head and didn’t have the courage to look at Parker’s expression. “I only want one mate, so…”


  “No!” Parker’s weak expression vanished as he declared firmly. “I rescued you, so I can be your mate. If you wish to reject me, abandon me after we become mates. No matter what, I want you!”
