Chapter 158 - New Ingredient: Spinach (1/2)

Parker started panicking. What if Qingqing likes it?

Hugh sputtered in laughter. “You’re still weaker compared to me.”

Parker didn’t bother to bicker with him. He stuffed the bunch of grass into the bamboo basket and put on his skirt, then left with his things.

Upon seeing Parker put his present into the bamboo basket, Hugh panicked for a moment. That’s used for carrying babies! But he also knew that Parker had a nasty temper. So, in the end, he decided to say nothing about it.

He was lucky enough to succeed in getting Parker to hand the food to Qingqing. If he hadn’t run into Parker, he might not even be able to let Qingqing taste it.

When Parker got home, it was raining heavily outside. The fierce wind brought with it a cold wave, and there was a murderous aura amidst the howling of the wind.

Bai Qingqing, firmly wrapped in a piece of animal skin, said upon seeing Parker, “Why are you back only now? Hurry, go in and change your clothes.”

As he was aware that Parker would be going home in his human form this time, Hugh had the foresight and didn’t punch Parker’s tummy. Hence, Bai Qingqing didn’t realize Parker had gotten into a fight.

“Mm.” Parker went into the house with the bamboo basket on his back. He had tied the short-winged birds to the shelter before he entered the house. In order not to let Qingqing see the grass in his basket, when he turned a corner, he faced Bai Qingqing with his front, then went into the bedroom walking backward.

Parker’s strange behavior caught Bai Qingqing’s attention. “Don’t bring food into the bedroom. You’re going to get it all wet.”

“Oh,” Parker replied sheepishly. He placed the basket by the wall, then started searching for a skirt in a dawdling manner.

The aroma of rice could be smelled wafting through the house. Cortis was afraid Bai Qingqing would get hungry, so he went into the bedroom and came out with the bamboo basket.

“What’s this?” Cortis took out a bunch of grass and looked at Bai Qingqing. “You asked Parker to pluck this?”

Parker instantly turned around. The basket was indeed gone. He stopped dawdling and very swiftly found and put on a dry skirt.

Bai Qingqing let out a cry of surprise. “It’s spinach. I didn’t ask Parker to pluck it. Parker, did you pluck this?”
