After sending away the seething Harvey, Bai Qingqing and Winston were left staring at each other.

Roar~

The leopard cubs were having fun in the tree hole. They would cast a glance at the adults, seemingly understanding that the baby in Mommy’s tummy wasn’t growing too well.

“Babies, go down and play.” Bai Qingqing waved for them to go away.

Her cubs responded and obediently went down as they were told.

Now, with Bai Qingqing and Winston being the only ones left in the tree hole, the atmosphere quietly changed.

Bai Qingqing didn’t dare to look at Winston or ask him for his thoughts. In any case, she wasn’t able to wait a minute longer. She was truly too worried about the baby in her tummy.

“Err...” Lowering her head, Bai Qingqing stroked her tummy and said softly without even looking at him, “Block the tree hole.”

Winston immediately got up to do so. Perhaps due to his haste in getting to his feet, his heart started pounding wildly for no reason.

What was the meaning of this? Was Qingqing going to mate with him? How... how was it possible?

Perhaps Qingqing merely felt tired and wanted to take a nap.

Then again, Curtis and Parker had already been gone for five days. Though the females from the wolf tribe wouldn’t be arriving so soon, one of them could come back first. Probably one of them would be back soon.

With the tree hole entrance blocked, the interior instantly turned dim, and an amorous vibe started swirling about in the air.

Winston stood beside the bed and prepared to transform into a tiger after Bai Qingqing laid down. But she didn’t move for a good while, so he didn’t know what her intentions were, so he simply remained standing next to the bed.

Bai Qingqing shifted towards the middle of the nest and lowered her gaze to fix upon Winston’s feet.

Why isn’t Winston coming over? Does he not understand what I mean, or is he not willing?

Since Winston has been following me around, he should be fond of me, right? Then, he shouldn’t be unwilling.

Bai Qingqing was anxious. As for Winston, he didn’t dare face up to the hint of anticipation hidden in the depths of his heart. He also felt secretly nervous as he stood by Bai Qingqing’s side like a massive rock.

As Winston didn’t come over for a long while, Bai Qingqing took a deep breath and finally said, “Shall... shall we mate?”

The female’s voice was soft and delicate, trembling slightly due to her taut nerves. Though there wasn’t a hint of danger and threat in her voice, Winston felt as though his mind exploded after being struck by lightning, making him lose all capacity to think.

The second these words came out of her mouth, Bai Qingqing’s face erupted in redness. Heat flushed upwards rapidly, making her feel so hot she felt like smoke was coming out of the top of her head.

She had summoned her courage to say that, but Winston looked like he hadn’t heard her at all. Going crazy inside, Bai Qingqing quietly gazed at him with a flushed face that looked as though excessive rouge had been applied.

In order to make moving around more convenient, males’ animal skin skirts were very short. When one stood, their crucial parts were barely covered. But when one sat down, they would be able to catch a glimpse of the tip of the iceberg.

Accidentally sweeping her gaze over that spot, Bai Qingqing’s face turned even redder. She quickly wiped the image away from her head and looked towards his face.

“Winston?”

As though suddenly jolting awake, Winston lowered his head and opened his mouth to utter out a word.

“Okay.”

His voice sounded as deep and mature as ever, and from Bai Qingqing’s perception, he was ever that solid-as-a-rock stern-faced military officer.

“Mm,” Bai Qingqing responded. Not knowing what to do, she shifted backward and leaned against the wall, then raised her head to look at him.

Winston walked to her and stretched his legs over hers.

Looking at the burly man standing over her body, Bai Qingqing instantly felt a strong, oppressing sensation.

“Wait a minute!” Bai Qingqing suddenly shouted.

Winston froze immediately. “Okay.”
