Parker wasn’t Curtis. Although he attacked fiercely, he didn’t harbor killing intent. Malcolm’s injury only looked bad, but after the pain subsided, he got back up on his feet.
Malcolm was shocked. Why did Bai Qingqing have so many beastman kings as her mates? Were there many beastman kings in the world outside? Wasn’t it a lucky thing for there to be one of these in each village?
Moreover, what was with that eagle beastman outside? He didn’t look young, but he didn’t have a single animal stripe. Since even he could be accepted by Bai Qingqing, then he should have a chance too, right?
“Are you alright?” Bai Qingqing bent over and looked at him.
This was the first time Malcolm was looked at straight in the face by Bai Qingqing after knowing her. Overwhelmed by her kindness, he forgot all about his pain. The injury seemed to be worth it.
Bai Qingqing then glared at Parker. Look at what you’ve done!
Hmph!
Parker turned his head away, not giving a care. He raised his paw and ruffled his hair.
The fox tribal head also frowned. This male was too disrespectful of his mate. Bai Qingqing hadn’t even said anything.
And wasn’t she too soft on him? She only complained a little?
This was really a strange family, but… it surprisingly made one envious.
“I’m sorry.” Bai Qingqing apologized to Malcolm, then said, “But I can’t accept you. Quickly go back and recuperate. You’ll meet a mate who’s the most suitable for you in the future.”
“Uhh~” Malcolm instantly felt as if he had fallen from heaven to hell, revealing grief in his eyes.
He understood that his strength was no competition. With Bai Qingqing not even giving him any consideration, things were completely hopeless for him.
After moaning for a while, Malcolm got up quietly and walked off limping.
Parker let out a proud snuff.
After bidding goodbye to the fox tribal head, Bai Qingqing and the others left. Only Muir stayed behind temporarily to rest in the grass house.
After leaving the fox village, Winston expressed his disapproval of how Parker had handled things.
“You shouldn’t have done that,” Winston said.
Bai Qingqing agreed.
Parker said in disdain, “Qingqing won’t agree to it, anyway. What’s so bad about me beating him up to chase him away? Are you going to let Qingqing bring him back? Thank goodness I’ve come.”
Otherwise, if Winston were to bring back a young and inexperienced lad, he’d be so angry that he’d spurt blood.
Winston said, “Just ignore him. After you beat him up, Qingqing has to apologize. It’s not worth it.”
Bai Qingqing was speechless. Damn, she just found out that Winston’s emotional intelligence was higher than Parker’s. He was secretly a badass!
Parker was dumbfounded. The more he thought about it, the more it made sense to him. He snuffed, feeling remorseful.
“So, you must remain composed in the future. Don’t get into a fight easily.” Bai Qingqing took this opportunity to preach. No matter what, Winston was worth learning from.
This was the first time Parker recognized his inadequateness. He secretly threw Winston a glance. Maybe he should change the way he handled things.
After thinking about this quietly for a moment, Parker decided that when Qingqing was around, he’d do as Winston suggested. If she wasn’t around, hehe…
Parker revealed a scheming smile.
Bai Qingqing threw a few glances at him, then let out a “tsk” sound in disdain. “What are you thinking about? You look so crafty.”
“It’s nothing.” Parker changed from dejected to invigorated.
Bai Qingqing didn’t believe him, but they had met up with the eagle beastmen outside by now. Therefore, she didn’t say anything.
Screech!
Many black eagles flew down from the branches, creating cold wind as they flapped their wings.
Winston said to an eagle beastman, “You stay here and wait to meet up with the other eagle beastmen who went to other villages. The rest of you, come with me to search along the river.”
“Screech!” The eagle beastmen replied in unison. They ferried Winston and the others, then flew up rapidly.
