Beauty and the Beasts

At night, Bai Qingqing still went back to her parents’ home. The next day, Daddy Bai drove her to school and she made it for the first class.

The little eagles look different every day. In the blink of an eye, she’d notice that they had grown up a lot bigger. Bai Qingqing regretted that she couldn’t witness their growth.

To make up for her regret, Muir would send Bai Qingqing photos every day. He previously didn’t use the phone much, but he had learned to do this.

Sitting next to Bai Qingqing, Tang Li would see her holding her phone and smiling sheepishly every day. When she got over to take a look, she realized that they were just a few extremely ugly young birds. She thought to herself that Bai Qingqing must have been possessed.

After the little eagles’ feathers became lush, Bai Qingqing’s studies entered the phase in which the workload was the biggest in the semester—It was time for the end of semester examination soon.

Parker had gone to Hengdian to film long ago and his schedule was packed. However, each time he made a video call with Bai Qingqing, he would be very energetic, not showing any fatigue at all.

That was true. Even a human would be able to withstand such a workload, so how could Parker, a beastman, possibly feel tired?

Curtis became increasingly busy, too. He was busy with bringing food home and dealing with the construction base that was difficult to be dealt with using machinery.

Winston was rarely home. Bai Qingqing had no idea what he was busy with all the time, and she was the most worried about him.

Muir was often the only one at home in the brand new villa to take care of the little eagles. The job of sending food to Bai Qingqing was also left to him.

White snow scattered down from the sky, and as the cold wind blew, they made many beautiful trajectories in the sky. The ground was covered with a thin layer of velvety snow carpet, but the brown soil could still be seen briefly.

“Screech screech~” A black eagle half a meter long landed on the ground, pecking at the remnant grass bits in the soil.

His action attracted his companions, and two more black eagles about the same size immediately came flying down.

It wasn’t accurate to call them black eagles. They had a lot of white feathers, looking like spots had grown on them.

The three of them pecked on the same spot concurrently, with a hint of fighting. One of them even used his wings to hit the two other eagles at the side.

“Heh! Go away!” A middle-aged man carrying a thick stack of examination papers let out a loud bellow, scaring off the three eagles on the ground.

“That’s strange. Why would there be eagles here? They’re probably being reared by someone.” The male teacher mumbled as he walked away, leaving behind a light trail of footprints on the snowy ground.

The little eagles flew into the sky, did a few rounds in front of the classroom building, then accurately flew toward a classroom on the third floor.

Bai Qingqing had completed her examination paper and was checking through it. Her eyes felt tired and she blinked as she looked out of the window. She didn’t expect to see three playful little guys.

“Screech screech screech~” The little eagles cried out excitedly.

The entire school was immersed in the silence of examination, and their voices filled up the entire school ground, warming up even the winter temperature.

The little eagles saw the biggest entrance—the door. They then fought to charge in. The teacher and students in the classroom instantly caused a commotion. The girls screamed, the guys shouted excitedly, and the teacher blocked them at the very front, bellowing furiously.

“Hurry up and go out!” Bai Qingqing stood up and waved her hand, saying.

“Screech screech screech!” The little eagles had flown above her head, but too many people had squeezed their way to their mommy’s side. Moreover, after hearing their mommy saying this, they unhappily paused in the air for a while before flying out docilely.

The invigilator closed the door, checked his watch, then said, “You have five more minutes. All students, please make good use of the time to check through your papers. The time will be up soon.”

Bai Qingqing was unable to calm down and took her paper to the front. “Teacher, I’m done. Can I hand in my paper now?”
