Bai Qingqing instantly raised her head and looked behind her. “Curtis! You’ve finally awoken?”


  The gigantic snake body shook and rapidly shortened as he transformed into a man that was handsome in a soft and gentle way, with red hair going down to his hips.

  He walked towards Bai Qingqing in a slightly feeble manner, yet his eyes were bright and energetic. “Snow.”


  Bai Qingqing beamed broadly as she got up and jumped into his arms.

  Bang! The two of them collapsed to the ground.

  The startled Bai Qingqing hurriedly propped her hands against the ground and was going to crawl to her feet when she felt a powerful arm circle the back of her waist.

  “What’s the matter with you? Did I hurt you?” Bai Qingqing asked frantically.

  With a smile in his eyes, Curtis said, “I’m just a little feeble having slept for a few months. It’s perfectly normal.”


  Bai Qingqing immediately thought of how it was like the last time Curtis came out of hibernation.

  At that time, Curtis was awoken by a din, and right after he came out, he filled his stomach with Rosa’s pups. This was why she didn’t sense his feebleness back then.

  “I’ll go out and hunt now.” He caressed Bai Qingqing’s face with his icy fingers. “You’ve grown thinner.”


  Having to breastfeed her three little cubs all the time, it would be surprising if she didn’t grow thinner.

  Bai Qingqing, however, was very happy to hear this—which girl didn’t like to be praised for being thin? She touched her petite face with a smile and said satisfactorily, “Great. Winston went hunting with the tiger tribe’s males. They collectively hunt once every year. Let’s just wait for them to come back with food.”


  Snake beastmen were lazy creatures. Upon hearing this, Curtis dismissed the idea of going out.

  “Okay.” Curtis circled his long arm—which was as soft as his snake body—around Bai Qingqing’s body. Instead of letting her get up, he flipped her around and flicked out his tongue to engage her in a kiss.

  Parker scratched the walls. On consideration of the fact that Curtis hadn’t seen Qingqing for a few months, he tolerated it with much difficulty.

  “Roar! Roar! Roar!” The roars of several leopard beastmen sounded below the tree at the same time. Curtis cocked his head and looked towards the entrance.

  The head of a leopard appeared at the entrance.

  Very soon, from the left stuck out another leopard head.

  Then, from the right emerged another leopard head.

  The heads of the three half-grown leopards blocked out half the light at the entrance.

  “Your cubs?” Curtis asked as he stared at the leopards outside.

  They had undergone a huge transformation while he was hibernating.

  “Mm.” Bai Qingqing shifted her body and attempted to climb out.

  She really couldn’t bring herself to be intimate with Curtis in front of Parker.

  Parker smacked the three cubs into the tree hole, taking out his jealousy on his offspring. “If you want to go in, just go in. Don’t hang around at the entrance and block out the light.”


  “Roar!”


  The cubs pitifully cried as they slammed against the ground.

  By now, they had grown into the size of mutts and were about one meter long. With their entry, the tree hole suddenly became very tight.

  Curtis finally let go of her and reached out to lift Third, who was lying closest to him.

  “You’re still the smallest.”


  Third howled at him agitatedly. His mouth was now full of sharp teeth that looked white and adorable.

  Bai Qingqing nudged Curtis with her elbow and whispered, “Don’t say something like that. They’re very smart now, they’ll get angry.”


  Curtis burst into laughter and said as he looked straight into Third’s eyes, “If you want to grow to be strong and powerful, you need to eat more.”


  “Roar?” A baffled expression surfaced in Third’s yellowish-orange eyes.

  Curtis tossed him back into the pile of leopards.

  Speaking of food, Bai Qingqing got worried. “They ate very little during the cold season. Sometimes, all they consume for the entire day is my milk. Will they become weaker in the future as a result?”
