Was there a problem with his hearing? Or was there a problem with his hearing?
It was already unbelievable that An’an had crawled out by herself, but to think that she had even jumped into the water…
Did anyone torture her? To think she didn’t want to live and crawled such a long distance to commit suicide.
However, thankfully, there was still a fish in this water. Parker felt thankful and jumped into the waterhole.
The water ripple alerted Bluepool at the first instance of an external invasion. He probed his head out from his cave and looked toward the waterhole’s entrance.
The bottom of the waterhole was pitch-black. Only the cave that Bluepool stayed in had a hint of light. Parker immediately swam over.
“You’re here to pick An’an up?” Bluepool thought that Parker had come at good timing. With a gentle whip of his fishtail, he sent out the bubble on the ground with a two-year-old female child inside.
An’an just lay there without moving, her body turning here and there as the bubble moved.
Parker’s eyes widened, and the surrounding water seemed to turn into despair, enveloping him tightly.
An’an… was dead?
It was over. He didn’t dare to go home anymore. Why not just let him drown to death here.
“Why are you in a daze? She’ll try to snatch my luminous ball again after she wakes up.” As Bluepool spoke, he took a look at the glistening luminous ball. It was covered with An’an’s saliva.
Sigh. He hoped his future mate wouldn’t despise it. No! He mustn’t tell her about this luminous ball’s history.
Parker was stunned, then quickly paddled toward An’an, carrying up the bubble to take a look. An’an was really just asleep. He let out a sigh of relief.
A trail of bubbles appeared in the water.
“Wuu…” Parker’s face flushed up. He had run out of air.
Forcing himself to restrain his instinct to take in the oxygen Bluepool had created, Parker swam up to the surface before he ran out of energy. He then panted furiously.
“Mmm~” An’an was woken up by the piercing sunlight. She clenched her small hands and then immediately opened her eyes before shouting out toward the water, “Ahh ahh!”
Parker was struck by a realization. An’an had only come to look for Bluepool’s big luminous ball. That made sense.
He was afraid she might do something foolish and immediately assured, “An’an, don’t panic. I’ll go get you the luminous ball.”
Hearing the conversation above the water (if An’an’s crying could be considered talking), Bluepool felt despair.
Damn! There was no way he could keep this luminous ball anymore!
By the time Parker dove down into the water again, Bluepool had regained his composure. He tolerated his heartache and tossed the luminous ball to him.
“Take it. There’s no need to return it anymore!” Bluepool appeared very magnanimous, but his heart was dripping blood.
This was the largest luminous ball he had found in this lifetime! Sigh, he wondered if he’d be able to find a bigger one in this lifetime.
Sigh, he regretted it so much. Even though it had been soaked in saliva, it could still be used after a wash. Could he go back on his word?
However, Parker had already taken the luminous ball. He nodded at Bluepool to express his thanks, then left cleanly.
Bluepool was rendered speechless. He felt even more regretful. What was he to do?
Parker felt at ease after handing the luminous ball to An’an. In the future, they would no longer have to look for Bluepool in the middle of the night to borrow the luminous ball anymore.
“Qingqing, I’m back!” Parker swung his wet tail and ran quickly toward the main hall while carrying An’an.
“Did you bring An’an back? Where did Winston take her?” After saying that, Bai Qingqing raised her head and saw that Parker was nowhere in sight. There was just a trail of water left on the floor.
Bai Qingqing threw a strange glance toward the main hall’s door before continuing with her first colored painting.
The paintings were a huge success, and Bai Qingqing enjoyed herself a lot. She only came back to her senses when the sky turned dark.
“My shoulders feel so sore!” Bai Qingqing raised the brush made from a thin bamboo cylinder and animal fur, stretching her back. She felt as if all the bones in her body were cracking.
