When Bai Qingqing woke up, the moment she opened her eyes, she saw a bunch of chubby-looking porcelain figurines.
Reaching out to touch them, she could feel that the surface of each porcelain figurine was smooth to the touch and exquisitely made.
“Parker?” Bai Qingqing turned her head in delight. Parker was lying right behind her, propping up his head with one hand and staring at her. God knows how long he had been staring at her like that.
Parker flashed a grin at her. “Like it?”
“Of course.” Bai Qingqing didn’t even laze around on the bed like she usually did. Instead, she quickly sat upright and put on her clothes. “This is our family portrait. I want to place these figurines at the head of the bed.”
Parker moved over a square-shaped rock and placed it next to their nest, using it as a bedside table.
It went without saying that Bai Qingqing’s figurine would be placed in the center. But since there were three males, clearly not all three of them could stand next to her. She was put in a dilemma.
“I want to stand here.” Parker placed himself on Bai Qingqing’s right side, as though it went without saying. After some thought, he then shifted to the left side.
“Any positioning will do.” Although Bai Qingqing said this, she knew that she wouldn’t be fair to whoever she chose to position furthest away from her.
After some thought, she decided to simply let Winston and Parker stand on each side of her, and for Curtis to stand in the middle.
F*ck, says Parker’s expression.
“Hahaha…” Bai Qingqing couldn’t resist bursting out in laughter. She placed her figurine on Curtis’s curled tail.
“Why should he be placed in the center?” Parker looked obviously displeased. “He occupies too much space. He should be placed at one side.”
Bai Qingqing said, “Precisely because he takes up plenty of space, that’s why he ought to stand in the center. Moreover, with him here, I can stand upon his tail. This is the most harmonious arrangement.”
Parker gave it some thought and realized that such an arrangement was indeed the most aesthetically pleasing. Furthermore, since he could stand right beside Bai Qingqing, he reluctantly agreed to it.
The baby beastmen were easily positioned, simply placed in front of their daddy—the little snakes were placed next to Curtis’s tail; An’an laid right at Winston’s foot; as for the leopard cubs, they were sprawled next to Parker.
“This is wonderful.” Gazing at the table full of baby beastmen, Bai Qingqing was startled to realize that she had already given birth to so many. She carefully counted and found that she had already added 23 new lives to this world ever since her arrival. So scary!
“If I get pregnant in the future again…”
Before Bai Qingqing finished her sentence, Parker’s eyes lit up. “Give birth to my babies next.”
However, his enthusiasm suddenly dwindled.
What if she gave birth to a female baby again?
Recalling the painful struggle and agonizing cries Qingqing went through during the last pregnancy, Parker’s face turned pale, and he immediately changed his stand. “We’d better forget it.”
“Cough. I meant, if,” Bai Qingqing said.
“I’ll be clear up front. Since all of you have offspring now, I’m not planning on giving birth anymore.”
Other than during her period, Bai Qingqing could get pregnant at all other times, it was just that the chances of conception differed.
It was truly quite tragic.
That was why Bai Qingqing didn’t speak in absolute terms, for no one could guarantee that no accidents would happen in the long decades that would follow.
“If I give birth to more babies, let’s add their figurines to the existing ones.”
Parker said right away, “You shouldn’t give birth to any more babies.”
Bai Qingqing pursed her lips and smiled. To be able to obtain her mate’s understanding in a world where procreation was a glorious affair, Bai Qingqing felt her heart brimming with sweetness. She tilted her head sideways and planted a kiss on his face.
Parker straightened his body uneasily and cleared his throat. “I’m going to look for ingredients to make a platter. Do you want it made of wood or rock?”
Bai Qingqing pondered the question for a moment, then replied, “Let’s make it wood. Rock is too heavy.”
“Mm.” Parker swung his tail that was twisted like an earthworm due to his excitement as he briskly walked out of the bedroom.
