Suddenly, the tree shadows on the glass window turned into a snake figure.
“Ahhh!” Bai Qingqing screamed and jumped off her bed, shouting crazily in her heart, I knew this wasn’t over!
At the next instant, the lights in the room illuminated a pair of red eyes outside. Bai Qingqing paused, and the horror on her face was replaced by disbelief.
“… Curtis?”
When Curtis heard her voice, he immediately jumped off the branch.
A crashing sound rang out and the window glass shattered.
Curtis didn’t expect there to be a layer between them. He staggered for a moment before standing firmly on the ground.
With his appearance, a strange scent filled up the room.
Bai Qingqing subconsciously pounced toward him but stopped upon smelling this scent.
Her nose twitched and she covered her nose while looking at Curtis, who was covered in filth, asking, “Where did you come from? You stink.”
Curtis pointed out of the window. “I found a passageway underground that leads to all directions. I passed through it and found you directly. I wanted to climb up from there, but the passageway that leads upward was too narrow.”
At the mention of this, Curtis’s expression seemed a little troubled. “I’m too thick and couldn’t get through, so I could only come out from the ground nearby. What are those transparent shards?”
She was speechless.
Bai Qingqing felt like crying. She didn’t want to hear this. It was too damaging to the image she had of Curtis, being deep, unfathomable, and wise.
“That’s glass. Leave it be. Come with me quickly and wash away this filth.”
Bai Qingqing was on the brink of tears as she tugged his hand, thinking that her feelings for Curtis were really true love for her to be able to take his hand under this situation.
Bai Qingqing softly opened her room’s door, poked her head out to look around, then did a shushing gesture toward him. “Shush, be softer. Don’t let my parents notice.”
Curtis nodded. He understood that Snow didn’t have any mates in this world and must still be living with her parents. It was provocative behavior of him to invade recklessly. They were Snow’s parents, he better be more restrained.
Just like that, Bai Qingqing and Curtis sneaked into the bathroom like thieves.
“Woof woof woof!”
When Furry heard the sounds, he came running over agitatedly, waving his tail.
Curtis’s expression immediately turned cold. No animal dared to offend him like this before.
Bai Qingqing quickly pushed him into the bathroom, reproaching in a soft voice, “Furry, go away.”
After saying that, she closed the bathroom door and then said to Curtis, “Don’t be like that. That’s our family’s pet. He’s called Furry.”
Hearing his name, Furry cried out more agitatedly, “Woof woof!”
Curtis frowned, not saying much, but starting to assess the unfamiliar building.
Bai Qingqing turned on the shower and faced it toward him. When the hot water brushed past Curtis’s body, even the steam emitted had a hint of a strange smell.
Bai Qingqing immediately pumped out some shower gel and rubbed it onto Curtis’s body as if it didn’t cost money.
Very soon, steam blurred the entire bathroom, and Curtis couldn’t see things clearly. He then started to concentrate on the shower.
Outside the bathroom, Furry was still howling as if he didn’t know what fatigue was.
Bai Qingqing knew Furry well. The more attention you gave it, the more it wouldn’t stop barking. Therefore, she chose to ignore it and said to Curtis, “You better change into your snake form and let me give you a thorough scrubbing.”
Curtis assessed the bathroom dubiously. After seeing his mate’s despising gaze, he had no choice but to turn into his snake form.
The tiled flooring was smooth, to begin with. Now that it was covered in water mixed with shower gel, it became even more slippery.
After Curtis transformed, he immediately slipped and lay flat on the ground awkwardly.
