Beauty and the Beasts

“It’s not strange since it’s cold today,” said Winston.

Bai Qingqing really had no courage to sit back on the icy ceramic tile of the flowerbed, so she comforted herself. I’m dressed so thickly, no one’s going to recognize me. Then, she leaned against Winston’s chest at ease and started eating.

“It’s so scalding, so yummy.” Bai Qingqing took a bite from the chicken thigh, then raised it and fed Winston. “I’ll feed you. Don’t hold it with your hand, lest it gets oily.”

Winston very much enjoyed interacting with his mate like this, so he happily agreed. He took a small bite on a colorless part of the chicken thigh and left the flavorful parts for her.

Bai Qingqing was responsible for feeding the two of them, while Winston was responsible for helping her wipe her mouth. They split up the work and enjoyed each other’s company in ease.

“Let’s go watch a movie after eating. There’s a horror show that’s been very popular lately. I want to watch it.” As Bai Qingqing spoke, she took a small bite of chicken. From the looks of it, she was basically full by now.

Winston helped her wipe off the grease at the corner of her lips. Towards his mate’s requests, he naturally wouldn’t reject. “Okay.”

Bai Qingqing cheered in her heart, and her appetite seemed to get better. She took another bite of the fried chicken.

Beep beep!

A few ear-piercing beeps suddenly sounded by the roadside. Bai Qingqing frowned and, looking up, saw a cab stop by the side of the road right opposite them.

No cars were blocking in front, and the color of the car also appeared familiar. Bai Qingqing’s heart skipped a beat, and she subconsciously drew a distance from Winston.

But no matter how she moved away, she was still sitting in Winston’s embrace. Looking from afar, there wasn’t much difference.

The window of the cab rolled down, and a furious face stuck out from within. “Bai Qingqing, come over here right now!”

“Daddy!” Bai Qingqing instantly leaped from Winston’s lap. With a blank mind, she walked towards the cab with the chicken thigh in her hand.

How could it be so coincidental? To think her father chanced upon them. Indeed, as the saying went: ‘The one who goes up mountains too often will one day meet a tiger’.

Winston had secretly tailed her parents and recognized Daddy Bai right away. Frowning, he followed after her.

Daddy Bai was unable to suppress his anger as he got out of the car. Paying no heed to the fact that they were outside, he pointed at Winston and questioned, “Who is he?”

Seeing that something wasn’t quite right, Winston’s two underlings swiftly rushed out of the car, their hands already at their waist.

Winston made a motion for them not to come over.

Though startled by his aura, the rage in Daddy Bai’s heart didn’t subside. As he didn’t dare to confront Winston, he could only take action on Bai Qingqing. “Get into the car.”

“Mm.” Bai Qingqing obediently walked towards the cab, and Winston also made to follow suit.

Daddy Bai stuck out an arm to block him. “I’m bringing my daughter home. Who are you?”

“Dad.” Bai Qingqing tugged at his clothes and immediately received a glare from him in return.

“Eh.” Bai Qingqing sighed and said softly, “He’s my boyfriend.”

Previously she had admitted Curtis was her boyfriend because her other mates had yet to come over. Now that everyone was here, for the sake of fairness, Bai Qingqing hadn’t planned on acknowledging any of them as her boyfriend.

But now that she was caught red-handed, she couldn’t care so much.

Winston’s heart erupted with joy, and his emotions were reflected on his face. However, as the corners of his lips involuntarily curled upwards, the deep scar on his face was tugged, making his expression appear a tad ferocious.

Daddy Bai’s expression, however, was even more terrifying. After casting a glance at Winston, he held his daughter’s wrist and forcibly pulled her towards the car.

“Come home with me!”

“Daddy!”

It wasn’t Bai Qingqing’s intention to resist, but still, she staggered as she was pulled along. Winston took large strides and stopped in front of them, blocking Daddy Bai’s path.

Daddy Bai warily raised his head and looked at Winston’s face. This angle was very awkward, for Winston was more than a head taller than him. At the height of 1.75 meters, Daddy Bai didn’t even reach Winston’s shoulders. There was no way he could put up a strong aura in front of him.
