Parker immediately grinned, carrying Bai Qingqing and entering the bedroom. “I’m not tired. When I felt tired, I’d rest on the behemoths’ back. When I was sleepy, I’d climb a tree and sleep there when the behemoths were asleep. However, it indeed took me many days to come home.”

At this thought, Parker felt uncomfortable. Holding on for one month had been his limit, but he didn’t expect to have been unknowingly brought to such great distances by the behemoths. It took him close to half a month just to run back, and he almost went crazy.

He was still short of half the amount of crystals required. He couldn’t imagine how he was going to spend even longer time traveling far away next time to find a behemoth group by himself. Just the thought brought him to despair.

Parker felt even more displeased when he saw that Bai Qingqing’s bedding was laid out where Curtis was at. He frowned and said, “It’s so cold, but you’re still sleeping there?”

Bai Qingqing quickly defended herself. “It’s alright. Curtis won’t be able to come out at all during the cold season.”

Curtis threw him a challenging side-ward glance, making Parker even more infuriated.

However, the delight in his heart didn’t weaken. He placed Bai Qingqing on the bedding and touched her stomach, saying in an abominable tone, “Qingqing is pregnant.”

Bai Qingqing also looked at Curtis, waiting for his reaction.

Curtis looked calm. “I know.”

“That’s true. You’re so close to her, so you can definitely hear it.”

Parker’s smile widened as if recollecting something. Then, he feigned innocence as he said, “Back then, who was it that said that he’d definitely be able to get Qingqing pregnant with just one time? It has been half a year since then. Qingqing has indeed gotten pregnant, but it doesn’t seem to be yours.”

Bai Qingqing put her hand to her forehead. Oh, Parker! Can you not say such things that give others the urge to beat you up? You can’t afford to get hurt!

Fearing that the two of them would get into a fight, Bai Qingqing elbowed Parker’s stomach, then grabbed Curtis’s hand, shaking it as she said, “Don’t listen to him.”

However, Curtis seemed as if he hadn’t heard anything. He only returned Bai Qingqing’s gaze after she grabbed his hand.

Parker was waiting for Curtis to act up, but after seeing how calm he was, he felt as if he had hit cotton. Not only was it not satisfying, but it was also very infuriating.

Bai Qingqing had been uncertain, to begin with, but after seeing how Curtis had silently accepted it, she dismissed her doubts completely.

At this moment, Muir came in with the clean bark. Bai Qingqing quickly beckoned for him to come over, breaking the eerie silence in the bedroom.

Parker tossed a bunch of crystals into Muir’s nest, raising his brows and saying, “I’ll return half of them to you first. I’ll return the rest next year.”

A Hundred transparent crystals could be said to be a tremendous sum in the beastmen world. However, Muir only threw a glance at them from the corners of his eyes and then said nonchalantly, “It doesn’t matter. You don’t have to return it.”

Although Parker felt great despair about having to travel far out next year, he wasn’t tempted by Muir’s words at all. He snorted and said, “I don’t like being in debt. I’ll definitely pay back what I owe you.”

Strong backbone. Bai Qingqing secretly praised Parker in her heart.

Muir didn’t force it, either. His gaze landed on Bai Qingqing’s face again with eyes filled with gentleness.

Bai Qingqing got up and brought the sewing box over, beckoning to Muir and saying, “Come, let’s cut a piece of cloth and make clothes for you. Although it’s also wet, it’ll be more comfortable than wearing wet animal skin.”

“En.” Muir took the small scissors Bai Qingqing passed to him, cutting a small piece of material with her help.

Parker suddenly felt upset. “What about mine?”

Wasn’t this eagle beastman’s status in Qingqing’s heart too high? Parker suddenly got on his guard.

“You want one too?” Bai Qingqing rolled her eyes at him, then said generously, “Alright, alright, alright. We’ll make one for everyone. You can wear it when it rains. It’s fine as long as you guys don’t find it uncomfortable.”
