From this day onwards, Bai Qingqing would consume a bowl of green bean porridge and a bowl of green bean water every day, plus a bowl of tonic for pregnant women.
She could finally sense some fetal movement now. Though it was nowhere comparable to back when she was pregnant with the male cubs, Bai Qingqing was delighted enough to have the baby move once or twice a day.
She didn’t dare to run about now, so she merely walked around a little near her home every day and tried her best to keep relaxed and happy.
The air was getting heavy and stifling, and the fog was so dense the entire day that one couldn’t see their hands in front of them. When the fog entered the lungs, it made one feel a heavy, burdened sensation. Even Bai Qingqing could sense that the heavy rainy season was about to arrive.
Unable to breathe with ease in the tree hole, Bai Qingqing went down to play with her cubs. The mother-and-son quartet was having a good time when Molly, who asked to learn to cook, finally appeared with her partner, the one-eared tiger.
“Bai Qingqing!” Molly waved at her from afar.
Bai Qingqing paid special attention to Molly’s body and saw that there weren’t newly added spousal marks.
“You’re finally here. I’ll go get Parker.” As Bai Qingqing spoke, she raised her head to call for Parker.
Roar~
The roar of a leopard rang from the tree above. A human figure agilely leaped between the tree branches and within several seconds jumped down from a height of several tens of meters, elegantly landing on the ground.
“You’re looking for me?” Parker gazed at her, looking spirited.
Bai Qingqing said, “Molly’s the one looking for you. Teach her mate how to cook. Just nice I happen to be hungry. I’ll eat whatever you whip up.”
Parker’s interest immediately faded. He only reluctantly agreed when he heard Bai Qingqing say that she was hungry. He dragged out the ingredients from the first story of the tree hole and started preparing.
Edgar followed him around with a serious expression, and Molly also curiously trailed after them, vexing Parker to no end. Seeing as he was about to flare up, Bai Qingqing quickly pulled Molly aside to rest.
“Are you pregnant?” Bai Qingqing sat on the floor and asked.
Though when Molly stood her tummy appeared rather flat, when she sat down the bulge became apparent.
She stroked her tummy and said, “Seems like I’m pregnant with a female baby. Edgar also said that I give off a different scent from usual.”
“Then, what are you planning to do?” Bai Qingqing actually felt envious as she gazed at her stomach. If only her female baby could be as healthy.
Molly shrugged and said, “What else can I do? Of course, give birth to her.”
“Good that you can take things easy,” Bai Qingqing said.
Meanwhile, Parker chased Edgar away after he was done stewing a pot of meat. As Molly was curious about what Edgar’s cooking would taste like, she left together with him.
A bowl of red braised pork belly glistening with fats appeared before Bai Qingqing’s eyes.
“Didn’t you say you were hungry? Eat up,” said Parker.
Bai Qingqing, who wasn’t actually hungry, dawdled for a good while before finally stuffing one piece of meat into her mouth. But as Parker’s cooking tasted really awesome, she did get hungry after eating two pieces.
The bush shrouded by the fog moved, causing Parker’s ears to shake, and he instantly raised his head to look.
Very quickly, a man with fair and clean skin dashed out of the bush. His left shoulder was severely injured, and his entire left arm was drenched with blood.
He stumbled out of the bush and ran straight for the waterhole.
Roar?
As the leopard cubs recognized Bluepool, they sprinted towards him right away. Only then did Bai Qingqing raise her head and saw that Bluepool was covered in blood. She hurriedly set down her bowl and got to her feet.
“Bluepool!”
Bluepool halted in his footsteps. The cubs caught up to him and started spinning circles around his legs.
Roar~
Bai Qingqing went behind him with Parker’s help and saw the wound on his shoulders up close—it was so deep that the bones were visible.
She gasped and asked with her brows creased, “What happened to you? Were you attacked by a wild beast? Parker, quickly go and get Harvey to come over.”
