  Chirp chirp.

  Chirp~ Chirp Chirp~

  In the early morning, the birds that woke up early were already standing on the branches searching for food. The crisp “chirp” sounds pierced through the heavy sound of the rain, spreading into the bedroom and waking up Bai Qingqing.

  “Uhh~” A mumble rang out from under the blankets, and, after a series of twists, she stretched out a snow-white arm, then quickly pulled it back in.

  “It’s so cold.” The female stuffed under the blankets let out a soft voice, making the hearts of those who heard it also soften endlessly.

  Muir kept his gaze on the bed and said softly, “You’ve woken up.”


  The unfamiliar male voice made Bai Qingqing’s eyes pop, and her sleepiness was instantly driven away. She popped her head out from under the blankets and looked up toward Muir.

  Her long curly hair was messed up over the night, but when paired with her beautiful face, it made her look adorable and not unkempt at all. This was especially so because of her dazed expression, as if she was groggy from all the sleeping, not understanding why Muir would be here.

  “Muir?”


  Although Muir felt a little dejected to have been temporarily forgotten, it immediately dissipated by a series of strong heart palpitations when he saw Bai Qingqing in this state.

  “It’s me,” Muir spoke out in a deep voice.

  Bai Qingqing’s mind cleared up, and she scratched her messy hair, trying to conceal this. She then sat up with the blankets around her.

  “You’re able to transform now? Is your body feeling alright?”


  Muir nodded. “It’s fine.”


  Bai Qingqing clearly didn’t believe him. She recalled that feathers could only completely recover after a year. This was what Harvey had told him when Muir had just come out from the earth fissure. This was only because beastmen had good bodies. For broken wings birds, if they were cut off, they’d never be able to grow back.

  Muir then said, “It’s just that my skin’s defenses aren’t as good as before. It doesn’t affect my transformation. My wing bones are almost recovered too.”


  “That’s good, then.” Bai Qingqing nodded to express her understanding. She then reached for her clothes, hiding under the blankets to put them on.

  Bai Qingqing had gotten a little accustomed to Muir yesterday, but that was when he was in his bird form. To be suddenly facing a living person, moreover, with it being an outstanding male with a figure, disposition, and appearance that couldn’t be neglected, Bai Qingqing suddenly felt that everything had returned to the starting point. She felt extremely uneasy and used washing up as an excuse to run out of the bedroom.

  Oh god! She really had another mate.

  Why did she get four of them in the blink of an eye? She was almost reaching the average number of most females’ mates.

  This made Bai Qingqing feel that she had truly become someone from the beastmen world. She was really worried that she’d have another additional mate in the future.

  Therefore, in the future, it was better for her to live a more secluded life and interact less with males.

  Muir paused for a moment and then also left the room, following after her.

  Parker didn’t have his attention constantly on Bai Qingqing as he was curious about the bark in the water. When he saw that she had come out by herself, he came running back from the river.

  “Qingqing, you’ve woken up. I’ll boil the water. Wash your face first. The food will be ready soon.”


  “Mm.”


  After he fetched hot water for her, Bai Qingqing carried the heavy stone basin to the back door by herself, squatting down and washing her face.

  The leopard cubs were craving for food and were staying around in the kitchen, adding a hint of cheerful voices to the quiet morning. However, Winston and An’an were nowhere to be seen.

  “Where are An’an and Winston?” Bai Qingqing asked casually.

  Parker opened the pot lid and took a look at the soup, saying, “Bluepool came to ask for the luminous ball early in the morning. An’an was awake and refused to give it to him. Therefore, Winston handed her to him directly before going out to search for Curtis.”


  Bai Qingqing rolled her eyes, but when she heard the last part, she paused.

  Parker came over with a bowl of seething hot soup, then glanced at her worriedly.
