Chapter 967 - Return Journey (2) (2/2)

“You drink some too.”

Curtis smiled faintly and then raised his head to finish the water.

Alva drank his fill of water and then shook his head while making tsk sounds, thinking to himself, “The two of them are really alike. One of them only takes care of the child, while the other only takes care of their mate. But this is really envious.”

Bai Qingqing wasn’t just parched, she was also starving. It had been close to two days since she had last eaten anything. She had stopped producing milk in the morning. If she still couldn’t arrive at the village today, she’d be extremely anxious.

Curtis plucked a few fruits nearby, washed them, then handed them to her.

After soaking in the river and finishing three half-ripe wild fruits at one go, Bai Qingqing finally felt alive again. However, she felt even hungrier. Gastric juice kept being produced, urging her to return to the village.

They had only left for half a month, but the number of villagers had surged. Bai Qingqing almost couldn’t recognize it anymore.

Many people couldn’t recognize her and Curtis. They were very wary when they saw a snake beastman entering the village, but they realized that he was probably someone from the village when they saw that he was allowed entry.

Moreover, Alva was with them as well. Alva was very well-known in the village. Who would neglect the only peacock in the village?

To ensure a quiet life, Bai Qingqing wrapped herself up entirely from head to toe with animal skin, exposing only a pair of big eyes to look around.

“Children!” Bai Qingqing found the village a little unfamiliar and called out in a suppressed voice.

Her words made the new members of the village even more certain of her identity, and they accepted them. Young males also secretly stood close by, assessing Bai Qingqing from all angles.

She had given birth to a young child but still had male children in the village. She must be very good at giving birth!

Bai Qingqing probably would have never expected that she’d be targeted by the males with strong cravings despite having covered her body completely. If she knew, she would definitely be caught between laughter and tears.
