Beauty and the Beasts

After they were done watching the rebroadcast of Muir’s competition, Bai Qingqing and Bai Xiaofan entered Bai Qingqing’s bedroom secretly.

To think that Curtis was actually copying words. His memory was too horrifying. He took a look and was able to write out a paragraph without missing out on a single word. Moreover, he imitated Bai Qingqing’s handwriting.

This scene looked amazing even to Bai Xiaofan. In his opinion, it was horrifying.

Curtis didn’t recognize words at all and would have to remember every single one. She couldn’t imagine how Curtis had done it.

“Are you done watching Muir?” Curtis’s voice sounded a little unhappy. His powerful disposition made Bai Xiaofan feel that he was shorter for an instant. He felt that he should pretend that he hadn’t seen anything and go back to his room to sleep.

Bai Qingqing opened her new school bag, taking out the few packets of snacks as well as chicken drumsticks, chicken wings, and other meat that she had prepared for Bai Xiaofan. These were all things that Bai Xiaofan liked to eat and didn’t take up a lot of space.

“Take them. Don’t tell mom and dad,” Bai Qingqing said, not feeling assured.

“Don’t worry. This is a conversation between us youngsters. Mom and dad don’t understand.” Bai Xiaofan instantly changed his stand and hugged the snacks happily.

Sounds of the door being scratched by nails rang out and Furry’s voice rang out into the room.

Bai Qingqing was afraid that Furry would cause problems and was planning to let it in when Bai Xiaofan walked to the door before her, turning his head and saying, “Leave that to me.”

He then jolted the food in his arms. Bai Qingqing understood and let him be.

After Bai Xiaofan went out, it really became quiet outside.

Bai Qingqing exhaled, gently grabbing onto Curtis’s ears, planning to settle scores with him.

“Why didn’t you hide? I told you to hide in the wardrobe,” said Bai Qingqing with a lowered voice.

Curtis reached out and sat his mate down on his legs, wrapping his arm around her and continuing to practice writing.

“I want to learn words,” Curtis said.

It was true that learning to read and write was important to live in modern society. Bai Qingqing didn’t hold it against him and said, “We’ll go buy beginner-level books tomorrow, then you can learn from scratch.”

“No need,” Curtis said. “You just need to tell me how to read these words.”

Bai Qingqing’s eyelids twitched and she said in disbelief, “These words… you couldn’t have memorized all of them, could you?”

“Is it very difficult?” Curtis asked.

Snake beastmen’s memories could be passed down the generations, so their memory naturally couldn’t be underestimated. Remembering things completely was something that Curtis often did, and those things could be more complicated than words.

Not only did he have to remember objects’ shapes, but also temperature, color, and even the humidity of the environment. Only then would he be able to accurately find the same location in the future.

These types of information could also provide him the geographical location of where he was at. Therefore, he never got lost even when roaming around.

Bai Qingqing was speechless and exclaimed in her heart, There’s really no comparison between two different species. Muir used sports to look down on all humanity, while Curtis used his memory that was comparable to that of computers to crush her.

As a human, Bai Qingqing felt immense pressure.

Bai Qingqing took out a dictionary and taught him how to use pinyin. Curtis then became like a wild horse that had broken away from its reins and was out of Bai Qingqing’s control.

Curtis flipped through the dictionary, basically no longer requiring Bai Qingqing to teach him to recognize words anymore.

In the time Curtis was absorbing knowledge, Bai Qingqing didn’t slack either. She gave Manager Qin a call and applied for leave for Curtis without any problems. She then counted how much money they had left.

They had spent a total of 6,500 yuan outside and there was still 3,000 in the envelope. Curtis’s salary for working for five days was 9,500 yuan.

Shaking her head in disbelief, Bai Qingqing put the money aside properly, then started to seize every minute and second she had to work on her assignments, preparing for the seaside date tomorrow.

There was still a packet of condoms hidden in her bag. They might be of use tomorrow.
