As for the leopard cubs, Bai Qingqing didn't have to instruct them not to say anything since they weren't present initially.
Molly's gaze moved back and forth between them before nodding earnestly.
Slow to react, it was only then that euphoric joy erupted in Winston's heart. The corners of his lips lifted stiffly, making his face appear grotesque.
"No, I did something wrong. I ought to be punished for it. I will tell them the truth."
Bai Qingqing glared at him. Her eyes, which were reddened and swollen from crying, didn't look intimidating at all. Instead, it made her appear so frail and delicate that it induced heartache in others.
Winston couldn't help but hold her more tightly and plant a kiss on the top of her head.
"Do you wish to die?" Bai Qingqing felt intense pain from her lower body. No longer able to think straight, she simply blurted out whatever came to mind."Then, wouldn't I have suffered in vain?"
Both Winston and Molly were rendered speechless.
Bai Qingqing clamped her thighs together. That part was giving her a throbbing pain still, and from time to time a scalding substance would flow from between.
After some thought, Bai Qingqing said to Winston seriously, "This is our secret. You are not to tell them."
Secret...
Winston felt a warmth surge into his heart, coursing through his veins and emanating throughout his body.
With these words, even if he were to die, he would go without regrets.
"Okay." Winston rubbed his chin against the top of Bai Qingqing's head and said in his deep voice, "For you, I will make sure to stay alive. I won't tell them."
Bai Qingqing heaved a sigh of relief. She was afraid that the clueless Winston would tell them everything. If Curtis came to know how it happened, he would likely explode on the spot.
"Then, let's go back." Winston lifted Bai Qingqing horizontally. Her body, which felt light as a feather in his arms, made him feel a sharp stab of pain in his heart. It seemed like she had grown yet thinner.
Bai Qingqing let out a startled cry and hurriedly shielded her chest with both hands. She then looked towards her lower body and shifted one of her hands from her chest to cover her lower body."Hey, surely you're not thinking of carrying me back like this? Quickly let me down."
As she spoke, she cast a glance at Molly. Thankfully, the latter wasn't looking at her.
Molly, a female born and bred here, had encountered a similar incident last year. The other party was extremely gentle with her, unlike what she had just witnessed. She merely briefly caught sight of the wounds on Bai Qingqing's body, and she didn't dare to look at her again.
Winston looked at the ground and saw that Bai Qingqing's clothes had been torn to shreds by him.
After gently setting her down on the grass, Winston said, "I'll go and pluck a tree leaf. Sorry you have to put up with this."
"I'm alright. Hurry up and go, " said Bai Qingqing.
Seeing Winston sprint off, Bai Qingqing immediately shouted, "Go slower!"
If they were to do it one more time, she really would die!
Bai Qingqing, however, had underestimated Winston's endurance. He didn't slow down at all. And when he came back with a large tree leaf, his reproductive organ—which had just been engaged in the deed—turned so hard that green veins could be seen popping up on it. Yet, his countenance betrayed nothing.
"I'm back."
Under Bai Qingqing's astonished gaze, Winston hurriedly covered her up, before lifting her horizontally.
Bai Qingqing was silently impressed.
At a time like this, Parker and Curtis wouldn't stop tormenting her till she lost consciousness.
Or maybe they wouldn't stop even after she passed out. Either case, she wouldn't have known.
When they returned to the village, Parker was roasting meat by the tree and was preparing to go look for her.
Seeing Winston come back with a bundle wrapped in a tree leaf, Parker cast a dubious glance at him."Winston? Who is that you're carrying?"
He then spotted the leopard cubs following behind and wrinkled his nose, his expression changing."Qingqing?"
"Have we reached?" Bai Qingqing's voice sounded from within the tree leaf.
A "whoosh" sound rang from the tree leaves above, and Parker's face appeared before her.
Bai Qingqing said, "Let's go home first."
