Beauty and the Beasts Chapter 122

Given that Bai Qingqing was very adamant about refusing him, he stuffed the fruits into her hands and said, “Then I will go back first.”

“Hey!” Bai Qingqing began to chase after him, but after several steps, she instantly jumped back and accidentally scattered the fruits on the ground. She was startled by how scorching hot the ground was. It could totally fry eggs. After quickly picking up all the fruits, Shuu has already gone far.

“What the hell.” Bai Qingqing hurriedly ran back to the shade of the tree. She was frowning while rubbing her feet, and the soles seemed like they’re cooked.

The fruits of this world are all picked up in the wild, so there is no such thing as cheap or expensive. It would be rather troublesome to run a special trip just to return these. Bai Qingqing doesn’t want to appear hypocritical either, so she picked up a fruit from the varieties and ate it.

Parker came back with a pile of fur clothes, and saw Bai Qingqing eating under the tree. He looked around, and asked, “Did the snake give it to you?”

“No.” Bai Qingqing looked up and saw the clothes Parker brought back, and stood up with interest. “It was given by Shuu. Have you taken all your clothes back? Let me see.”

“Humph. That guy.” Parker groaned unpleasantly, seeing Bai Qingqing rushing back to the house, he immediately accelerated his pace, “Don’t move, I’ll put down the hide and pick you up.”

“Okay.”

Parker took Bai Qingqing back to the house. Bai Qingqing put down the fruit and went to check on the clothes. The animal furs are all in one piece, and she can tell what kind of animal it was by its pattern. Bears, tigers, and the likes have their heads and claws preserved.

Parker rubbed Bai Qingqing’s soft hair and said: “These are old, but you will make do with it for now. When the cold season comes, I will tan new hides for you.”

“Isn’t it too troublesome? Why do you have to wait for the cold season?” Bai Qingqing looked up at Parker.

Parker said: “During that time, the furs of animals will be more voluminous and does not shed easily.”

Bai Qingqing suddenly remembered when she was taken away by Curtis, he caught a giant rabbit for her to eat. The rabbit’s fur was super fluffy, and she had the urge to pull it off.

“Okay. I would like to have rabbits. Do you know them? They’re this big—” Bai Qingqing tried to compare it with her hands. Moreover, she’s not sure if it’s a rabbit. She has never seen a rabbit that big.

Parker flicked Bai Qingqing’s forehead with his finger. “No problem, I’ll look out for it when I go hunting.”

Bai Qingqing suddenly felt embarrassed. She was so accustomed to Parker that she didn’t realize she’s already dependent on him. He wasn’t even her partner. She should have asked Curtis.

Parker looked out of the house and said, “This year’s rainstorm season is extremely critical. I have to hasten the work but first I’ll go to deal with the sandpit today.”

Bai Qingqing also went to the ditch, and it happened that the house cast a shadow on this side, making the ground cold.

The sandpit was right next to their house, and there was a rain-proof shed to prevent the sand from getting wet by the rain.

Parker walked into the ditch and went to clear it up directly with his hands.

Bai Qingqing shouted, “Yuck! So dirty!”

Parker smirked and said, “Dirty, huh. It’s all dry.” As he was saying, Parker dug out something coated in sand and he put it next to the others on a tree leaf.

Bai Qingqing covered her face and couldn’t bear to look at it directly. Later, she couldn’t help but looked at him clearing the ditch. She and Parker were the only ones who uses this ditch.

As for Curtis, he only needs to solve it once in a few days in the wild while going on hunting.

Parker turned over the sandpit several times until it’s all cleaned up, then brought over the leaf to the waste pit and poured everything into it.
