  After having lunch, Bai Qingqing laid down for a moment and quickly fell asleep. Outside the door, Muir was like a statue, not moving even after very long. Only his anxious breathing showed that he was a living creature.

  When he returned to his senses, the breathing of the female in the room had already become slow and long. She had clearly fallen asleep.

  Only then did Muir regain control over his body. He entered the room and looked at his mate, who had her hands raised while laying down on her stomach. His heart palpitated again, and he quickly walked to the grass nest opposite and sat there.

  Curtis didn’t even throw Muir a glance and only smiled coldly. He laid on his territory sluggishly, looking at An’an, who was next to him and was as quiet as a snake beastman.

  Bai Qingqing didn’t know if Muir had come by. The instant before she opened her eyes, Muir heard the changes to her breathing and subconsciously ran out of the bedroom.

  She frowned, feeling worried about Muir’s injuries. It couldn’t be that he was too seriously injured and was thus hiding in a corner to recuperate, could he?

  Bai Qingqing only saw Muir again at dinner time. He didn’t look like he was seriously injured, and his complexion even seemed better than usual.

  “Erm, Muir.” When Bai Qingqing was about to go to sleep, she called for Muir, who had just finished with his work. She had no idea why he had so many things to do that she hadn’t seen him stopping at all.

  Muir instantly stiffened, his heart palpitating non-stop and his blood uncontrollably surged, with his body temperature rising.

  It was here. Was she going to mate with him today?

  Seeing how intense Muir’s reactions were, Bai Qingqing threw him a strange glance and explained, “Oh, it’s nothing. I just want to ask how your injuries are. You even spurted blood in the day.”


  “I’m fine!” Before her last note ended, Muir anxiously replied as if he was in a rush to get reincarnated.

  She must be worried that he wouldn’t be capable of doing it because he was injured. He must explain this clearly.

  Muir must have suffered internal injuries given how he had spurted blood. However, after hearing his assurance, Bai Qingqing still felt a lot more relaxed. She smiled and said, “That’s good. Go to sleep earlier, then.”


  Muir was stunned.

  That was it?

  As this was contrary to his imagination, Muir was stunned again.

  Bai Qingqing burst out laughing and suddenly realized that Muir was actually a little adorable. Was it her illusion?

  No matter how anxious Bai Qingqing felt, she wouldn’t do the deed with him when he was suffering from both new and old injuries. She was just worried that he might have been hurt by Curtis.

  Hearing Bai Qingqing’s laughter, Curtis threw a glance at Muir, his brows slightly furrowed.

  “Snow is scared of the cold. During these few days, you should sleep by her side.” Curtis didn’t care about Muir’s condition and spoke coldly.

  In the past, Curtis could still share a bed with Bai Qingqing during this season. However, given how she had just recovered from a serious illness, he was scared that she might suffer from a relapse and thus allowed Muir instead.

  As for whether Muir would be able to hold back with his seriously injured body or not, this wasn’t something within Curtis’s consideration.

  Bai Qingqing’s face instantly flushed. She recalled what Curtis had said in the day and threw a glance at the tall man standing at the foot of the bed. As the lighting was dark, she couldn’t see the hint of anxiety that had appeared on his face.

  She was still feeling thankful that Muir didn’t know what she was thinking. Otherwise, it’d be awkward.

  Muir looked at Bai Qingqing. Although he didn’t say anything, it was clear from the body language that he was inquiring.

  “Uhh…… Alright.” Bai Qingqing hesitated for a moment before agreeing to Curtis’s suggestion. She scooted to the side and patted the spot next to her. “You can sleep here.”


  She was also feeling troubled about how she should convey things to Muir. No matter what she said, it’d definitely be extremely awkward.
