The little snake looked back without any fear. His appearance was extremely similar to his father. Bai Qingqing would believe if someone were to say that this was Curtis when he was young.
His eyes were also red as blood, seeming very calm. However, no matter what… he was only two years old. The tensed muscles on his body under the clothing showed that he was extremely guarded.
However, Parker didn’t pursue this and said to the leopard cubs, “Come and sit over here.”
The leopard cubs were unwilling to accept this and cried out before running over to their daddy, staring at the little snake as if they were looking at an enemy.
The little snake, on the other hand, immediately relaxed.
Seeing that the children were all fine, Bai Qingqing didn’t wish to pursue these trifle matters either. She took the little snake’s hand and asked, “Why did you transform in advance?”
The little snake seemed to be at a loss, and he shook his head. However, judging from his indifferent attitude, he seemed extremely glad to have transformed in advance.
“Did you eat some strange things? Or was there something you ate that caused your body to feel uncomfortable?” Bai Qingqing asked. “Mommy will go back and ask a doctor.”
The little snake thought about it for a while before saying in a slow tone, “Last year… I ate a ball.”
A big question mark suddenly appeared in Bai Qingqing’s mind. What?
“I thought that it was an egg, but after swallowing it, I wasn’t able to squash it in my stomach.” The little snake recalled while saying. His speech became increasingly smoother.
“It could be the stem tuber of a plant. It kept on taking space in my stomach, causing me to be unable to ingest anything for a few days. After it was finally digested, I was so hungry that I ate such a big prey.”
The little snake gestured at length proudly. It was longer than the leopard cubs. Bai Qingqing gasped and strongly suspected that the little snake was boasting.
It was such a big prey, and even the little snake’s head wasn’t that big. How could he swallow it?
However, in consideration of the little snake’s face, Bai Qingqing didn’t voice out her suspicion.
The leopard cubs glared in horror with eyes wide open. They exchanged a few glances between themselves and then squeezed together.
“Then, my appetite continued to get bigger since then. Because I ate more, I grew faster than before, and I even found you.” The little snake looked toward Bai Qingqing and grinned.
“Little snake is so amazing.” Bai Qingqing praised.
However, calling a beautiful-looking boy “little snake” felt awkward to her.
Bai Qingqing asked, “Don’t you guys name yourselves when you mature? Do you want to come up with a name now?”
The little snake immediately opened his mouth. But just as he was about to say something, he swallowed the words back for some reason. “I haven’t thought of one yet.”
Bai Qingqing thought about it. The little snake was only two years old and might not have any idea. She asked, “Do you want me to give you a name?”
The little snake shook his head. “You can continue to call me like this. Once I’ve thought of it, you’ll be the first one I tell.”
Bai Qingqing smiled happily. “It’s a promise, then.”
“En.” The little snake nodded solemnly.
A tiger roar rang out from the direction of the stone castle. Bai Qingqing immediately stood up. “An’an has woken up!”
“An’an?” The little snake repeated and stood up as well. He threw a glance at Bai Qingqing’s figure, which had returned to normal, and had an answer.
Only then did Bai Qingqing notice that the little snake was about the same height as her and became a little surprised.
“An’an is your younger sister. She’s only one month old.”
At the thought of how An’an might be waiting to be fed, Bai Qingqing spoke a little faster. “We should be heading back. Little snake, come back with us to see An’an.”
The little snake’s breathing became a little heavier, clearly wanting to follow them. However, at the next instant, he seemed to have thought of something and shook his head firmly.
Bai Qingqing knew what he was afraid of and said, “Curtis is hibernating. He won’t notice you.”
