Some short-winged birds would construct a nest on the ground and generally wouldn’t run away when they were laying eggs, so females could grab them with ease.
Molly felt that right now, Bai Qingqing was exactly like those short-winged birds crouched in the nest and not moving an inch.
Bai Qingqing inhaled deeply, both hands gripping the grass as she exerted strength with all her might once more.
Finally, that huge lump of something glided out from her body. The stuffed sensation disappeared instantly, leaving behind only faint pain.
Bai Qingqing lowered her head and looked. Geez, that really was an egg.
It was a pretty oval-shaped brown egg, bearing clear differences to Curtis’s snake eggs. Snake eggs were of an elongated shape, making them easier to give birth to.
As for this egg, although the size was similar to the snake eggs, due to its roundness, it was particularly hard to give birth to.
Bai Qingqing stared dazedly at this egg with her head lowered for a long time. No words could quite describe her feelings right now.
If it was a toilet bowl, this egg would probably crack when it fell into it.
If she had given birth to this in a toilet…
So what sort of a setting was this? Weren’t they afraid the baby would die or something?
Bai Qingqing didn’t dare to come out, so she could only come up with all sorts of reasons in order to absolve herself.
“Are you done or not?” Molly urged by the side.
The expressionless Bai Qingqing picked up the egg from the sandpit. Mm, it’s pretty heavy.
Stroking her stomach, it was much flatter than earlier. But still, it was a tad puffed up. Though, she no longer felt like she was going to give birth any moment now. Also, it was normal to have some tummy flab after giving birth.
So it was just one egg? No wonder her pregnancy didn’t show.
“Okay, I’m coming out.” Bai Qingqing sounded feeble, and her legs felt limp as though she was stepping on cotton. Her mental state was also as though she was floating among the clouds with no sense of groundedness.
Molly heaved a sigh of relief. “You’re finally done!”
As she spoke, she turned around and saw Bai Qingqing holding a big grey egg. She widened her eyes, her mouth gaping wide open.
Bai Qingqing cast a feeble sideways glance at Molly and said, “I have no strength to draw anymore. Let’s go back.”
Only when she went past her did Molly somewhat snap out of her trance. She turned around and said, staring after Bai Qingqing’s back view, “You… gave birth to an egg?”
Was she seeing things earlier? Since when did Bai Qingqing get pregnant?
Bai Qingqing kept away the easel with her limp arms. She had to carry the egg with one hand, and the easel and wooden frame were quite heavy too. Gazing in the direction of the stone castle, Bai Qingqing felt that she wouldn’t be able to persist all the way, so she decided to leave the easel here.
Not answering Molly, she said, “I’ll go back first.”
Taking in a deep breath, she then shouted towards the rustling field of flowers, “Come back all of you! We’re heading home now!”
Howl!
The leopards howled from the flower field, upon which three tracks quickly appeared as they charged towards Bai Qingqing.
“There’s no point in me staying here if you’re gone. I’m going home too.” Molly hurriedly jogged after her.
One egg, two females, three leopard cubs, plus a female baby. Such a combination was bound to turn heads.
Especially since Bai Qingqing was beautiful and was carrying an egg to which she just gave birth, looking feeble and lovable. Three obedient leopard cubs were even following behind her, instantly turning her into a goddess among the young male beastmen.
After arriving home and setting An’an down, Muir was worried about Bai Qingqing, so he came out again.
He ran into her near the waterhole.
“Qingqing!” Muir sprinted towards Bai Qingqing on his long legs, his gaze inadvertently falling upon the egg in her arms. Suddenly, he forgot how to move his legs and fell face-down on the ground.
With his face buried in the ground, Muir widened his eyes. If he hadn’t seen wrongly, Qingqing had given birth to an egg?
