Chapter 38: A Punishing Kiss

Bai Wanwan approached him with light steps and sat down next to the Stone Bed.

The Cubs excitedly wanted to jump onto the bed, but Bai Wanwan stopped them.

She raised her hand to her lips and hushed The Cubs softly, "Be good. Father Beast is still recovering from his injuries. You can take a look, but absolutely do not disturb him."

The Cubs lined up neatly in a row. Though they were at an age where they were naturally active and restless, they now controlled their behavior, neither moving nor making a sound, and nodded obediently.

After The Cubs watched Qiu Rong expectantly for a while, the eldest Tiger Cub finally led them out of the room.

After The Cubs left, Bai Wanwan was in no hurry to go; instead, she carefully checked his wounds again.

After a night, the serious wounds treated with Highly Effective Wound Healing Medicine had already scabbed over and recovered.

The wound on his face had also scabbed over, though she didn't know if it would leave a scar.

Her fingers unconsciously moved to his cheek, her fingertip rubbing the scabbed wound.

"Wake up quickly. I promised The Cubs I would definitely have you awake within these two days; don't make me break my word."

While she checked the injuries, she conversed with the system.

"peanut, he was unconscious last night because his injuries were too severe, so why hasn't he woken up today now that the wounds have scabbed over?"

"It might be excessive blood loss, or the body's self-protection mechanism at work."

Bai Wanwan nodded, staring at the scar on his face. "Take a look at the scar on his face. Can Highly Effective Wound Healing Medicine repair it?"

"Host, rest assured. This is a new injury; it will be fine after applying Highly Effective Wound Healing Medicine once."

Bai Wanwan immediately felt relieved. As she withdrew her hand from his face, she accidentally brushed past a certain point on his chest.

The man's eyelashes flickered, and before he even opened his eyes, he had already grabbed her wrist.

Bai Wanwan tried to pull away, but she couldn't move her hand at all.

And Qiu Rong also opened his eyes within that brief moment, the slight exhaustion in his eyes gradually becoming clear.

"Bai Wanwan, what are you doing?" His voice was hoarse, yet not unpleasant.

If one listened closely, there was also a hint of anger.

The sensation still lingered on Bai Wanwan's fingertips, and she guiltily tried to pull her hand back. "No... nothing."

Qiu Rong snorted coldly and sat up, supporting himself with one hand. "I was only asleep, not dead..."

He had woken up once last night and found himself sleeping here, so he roughly understood what was happening before falling asleep again.

The second time he fell asleep, it really was just sleep; his body needed rest to recover.

But a Male is naturally alert. Perhaps because he was injured, he was a bit slower and didn't notice her the moment she approached.

But it wouldn't go so far as not even feeling a touch.

There was a hint of danger in his gaze as he held her hand, refusing to let go, just staring at her like that.

As soon as Bai Wanwan saw his expression, she knew he probably knew everything.

Not admitting it now would only make her look sleazy.

"Cough... I was just checking your injuries just now and accidentally touched you when I withdrew my hand. Really, I didn't want to do anything to you..."

Her gaze was incredibly sincere, and she even blinked twice at Qiu Rong.

But as Qiu Rong looked at her beautiful face, he thought to himself that indeed, the more beautiful the Female, the better she is at lying.

The corner of his mouth curled into an arc. Just when Bai Wanwan thought he believed her and would let her go, he suddenly spoke: "Bai Wanwan, if you didn't want to do anything to me, then where did my several Cubs come from?"

Bai Wanwan was suddenly struck as if by lightning.

Although Qiu Rong hadn't been drugged by her at the time, he had been right there in front of her, and she was the one who had taken the initiative to consume him.

A flash of inspiration hit her, and Bai Wanwan immediately frowned. "What are you saying? My head was injured before and I've forgotten many things. If you have time, then tell me how we met and how we got together?"

The Female's attitude changed too quickly, and the natural intimacy she had previously shown him was gone.

He chuckled inwardly and suddenly reached out, pulling her body into his arms.

The unfamiliar Male scent rushed at her, and Bai Wanwan lay there stiffly without moving.

Having regained her memories, although she had shared physical intimacy with Qiu Rong once, they didn't actually know each other.

But she still remembered the stupid things she had done a few days ago; because of The Cubs' existence, she had treated Qiu Rong as her Beast Husband.

She had been kissing, touching, and acting shamelessly.

She felt like digging a mansion with her toes and hiding in it. (A one-bedroom apartment was too small; she couldn't wrong herself.)

Therefore, she couldn't push him away now and could only bite the bullet and pretend to have amnesia.

Then, she deliberately relaxed and raised her hands to encircle his waist, which featured eight-pack abs and serratus muscles.

She said mischievously, "I've forgotten everything, so hurry and tell me."

Qiu Rong lowered his eyes, watching the Female in his arms go from stiff to slowly relaxing.

The corner of his mouth hooked into an arc as he looked down at the half of her face revealed against his chest.

"Fine, if you want to hear it, then I will tell you."

Bai Wanwan immediately pricked up her ears. She really wanted to hear what kind of story their shallow acquaintance would become when told by him.

She was enthusiastic enough to want to bring a small stool to listen, but soon, she couldn't laugh anymore.

"At that time, I was heavily injured by Zhu Li, and you picked me up and took me back..."

Was that so?

Bai Wanwan thought it might be something the original owner had done...

But she also had memories of what the original owner did; perhaps there were gaps in her memory.

After thinking about it, she continued to listen to him seriously.

"After you picked me up, before I could even heal my injuries, you forcibly performed a Pairing Ceremony with me and even became pregnant with my Cubs."

Bai Wanwan's eyes widened, and she couldn't help but ask, "And then?"

Qiu Rong's mouth quirked as he continued, "Then you said you would always be good to me, and no matter how many Beast Husbands you have, I would be your favorite."

"I..." Did I ever say those things?

Lies! He's really making it up!

These definitely weren't things that happened with the original owner, because she was the one who had been there after becoming pregnant with The Cubs.

She had never said such words to him at all.

"What do you want to say?" An indistinguishable light flickered in Qiu Rong's eyes.

Bai Wanwan opened her mouth but decided to continue pretending.

"What happened later?"

"Later, you intentionally threw our Cubs away..."

"You..."

Bai Wanwan wanted to curse; how was she intentionally throwing them away?

The words on the tip of her tongue took a turn. "How could I possibly throw The Cubs away?"

"You'll have to ask yourself that. But after that time, you promised me you would give birth to eight or ten more Cubs for me."

"You're talking nonsense!"

Bai Wanwan was at the end of her tether; not a single word of this was true.

She sat bolt upright suddenly, but Qiu Rong grabbed her by the neck and pulled her close.

A punishing kiss fell heavily.

Bai Wanwan wanted to fight back, but she was suppressed firmly by him.

Before long, her breathing became labored, but the Male still didn't let her go, occasionally transferring a breath of air to her.

He made her feel like a dying fish that could only depend on him.

"Chief... Qiu Rong..."
