Beauty and the Beasts

Chapter 193: Secretly Exchanging Blows

Reject females? This was refreshing. It seemed that the merfolk tribe was quite arrogant.

“They are really an interesting tribe.” Bai Qingqing stroked her stomach and asked, “Are you here to give me a body check-up? Can you start?”

The ape king lowered his gaze and looked toward Bai Qingqing’s stomach, saying, “Remove your clothes.”

Bai Qingqing was someone from modern society, after all. She threw a wary glance toward the ape king, hesitated for a moment, before removing her outer garment. Thankfully, she wore her tube top every day.

Bai Qingqing’s waist was still slender, her skin fair and tender. Her stomach was bulging slightly, but it didn’t make her look fat at all. Instead, it made her appear a little mischievous, giving off some hint of a motherly beauty.

The ape king’s breath paused for a moment, but he wasn’t able to ignore the cold gaze glaring at him. He quickly returned to normal, put his hand out toward Bai Qingqing’s stomach, and focused his attention, touching it and saying, “They’re very healthy. You’re really lucky.”

Bai Qingqing was a little happy after hearing the ape king’s words. Wait a minute, lucky? What did that mean?

Bai Qingqing raised her head and looked at the ape king, who was a head taller than her.

“You took abortion medicine when you first came to the village. I gave my agreement since they were snake beastmen. I didn’t expect them to still be so healthy. I can feel their strong vitality.”

It was only now that Bai Qingqing understood. The ape king thought that she had been pregnant when she arrived in the village. Thankfully, the snake beastmen’s pregnancy period was indeterminate, and it didn’t matter if they were pregnant for one, two, or three months.

“Your fertility is very good. You should choose more mates.” The ape king appeared surprised as he drew his hand back, his gaze turning scorching as he looked toward Bai Qingqing. His tone clearly showed his dissatisfaction with the snake beastmen. “This will prevent a certain male from doing whatever he wants with you.”

Many knew about the matter between Bai Qingqing and Curtis a few days back. Parker had sat by the window for one day and one night, and it would be hard for others to not find out. Only those who knew that Bai Qingqing had gotten an abortion when she first came to the village and would only be fertile after at least a year were aware the snake beastman must have forced himself on her.

To be tormenting a female during her pregnancy, it showed that he was a cold-blooded beastman. However, weren’t all feral beasts like that?

Bai Qingqing wasn’t aware that the matter between Curtis and herself was known by everyone, and was wondering what the ape king’s words meant. However, once the ape king said this, both Parker’s and Curtis’s countenances changed.

No males would feel happy to hear others suggesting their female pick more mates.

Parker had always been very respectful toward the ape king, and he held back his anger, not saying a word.

Curtis’s gaze turned completely cold, and his voice had piercing killing intent. “You can leave now.”

The ape king didn’t appear terrified at all, and he said to Bai Qingqing, “I’ll send males to bring you food every day. You can pick the males you like and have them as your mate.”

“Ssss—” Curtis’s body below his waist rapidly took on snake form, and he raised his tail, wanting to attack. At this moment, the ape king’s disposition suddenly changed, and his brown-colored eyes were like daggers that pointed toward Curtis.

For some reason, Curtis’s movements paused for a moment. Bai Qingqing reacted during this pause that lasted for less than half a second, opening up her hands to block in front of Curtis.

“Don’t fight!”

Bai Qingqing had her back to the ape king, blinking her left eye mischievously toward Curtis. It was clear what she was trying to say with her eyes. She wouldn’t listen to what the ape king said.

Curtis’s heart turned soft, and he got out of his attacking stance, raising his hand and patting Bai Qingqing on the head.

“Ape king!” The wolf king, who was outside, dashed in after sensing the killing aura. He stood behind the ape king and looked at Curtis hostilely.
