Beauty and the Beasts

Bai Qingqing covered her chest with her arms and secretly turned to take a glance at Cortis.

Although Cortis’s action of sewing the clothes was very slow, he was steady and accurate, giving off the feeling that he was putting in a lot of thought into it. Moreover, his work also felt very meticulous. His bright red hair draped down naturally, occasionally moved by the wind, disturbing his focused hands.

They said that men were the most handsome when they were working. Bai Qingqing suddenly realized that Cortis was also very handsome and could be considered one of those beautiful-looking types. Putting aside his gloomy disposition and just looking at his appearance alone, he was definitely more of a younger handsome guy compared to Parker, who had just turned of age.

“It’s done.” Cortis finished up the sewing and flipped the tube top back to the front. “Try it on again and see.”

The moment Cortis raised his head, he saw the female looking at him and became stunned for a moment.

Xiao Bai must still like him. It was just that she was too shy and didn’t dare to express her feelings.

Wasn’t she sneaking looks at him?

Bai Qingqing anxiously turned her gaze away, snatched the tube top from him, and said politely, “Thank you.”

Ahh! To think that she had gone into a daze while looking at a homeless beast and was even caught in the act. It was so embarrassing.

Bai Qingqing looked at the alterations and couldn’t find any traces of it. It was only after she stretched the snakeskin and took a careful look that she was able to find a thread that was thinner than hair passing through the snakeskin’s fine pores.

If it wasn’t so, the fishbone probably wouldn’t have passed through the snakeskin. It now made the piece look even more perfect.

However, Bai Qingqing still didn’t treat Cortis with a good attitude. She snorted and hurriedly put on her clothes, purposely showing off an “En, it’s barely acceptable” kind of expression.

Cortis felt slightly disappointed. He thought that it must be because he was still unfamiliar with the skill and hadn’t done good enough a job. Thankfully, Xiao Bai’s skirt wasn’t done yet. Cortis immediately said, “Take off your skirt. I’ll measure it again.”

Bai Qingqing’s heart that had just felt at ease suddenly turned anxious again as she held onto her skirt with both hands. “Not this!”

If Cortis were to find her lower body fun after looking at it and then started poking her again with his hand, it would be bad!

“It’s fine for the skirt to be looser. It won’t be convenient if it’s too tight,” Bai Qingqing said seriously.

Wait a minute. This snakeskin was for Cortis to gift to his mate. She had no choice but to accept the top, but if she were to accept the skirt as well, how would she be able to get away from him?

However, before Bai Qingqing could say anything, Cortis accepted her suggestion and replied, “Then I’ll make it bigger. It’s fine as long as you like it.”

After saying that, he cut out a thicker roll of the snakeskin at lightning speed.

Bai Qingqing was speechless. Brother Snake, I’m not purposely trying to take advantage of you.

Forget it. Her entire person had been taken up by Cortis, so what if she were to take a few chunks of his snakeskin?

At the thought of this, Bai Qingqing no longer felt as bothered.

The skirt only required tightening around the waist, and Cortis soon completed it. He brought it to Bai Qingqing, feeling great anticipation. Bai Qingqing accepted it and then turned her back to him, quickly changing into it.

They say that clothes make a man. After putting on good quality clothes with a great cutting, even Bai Qingqing felt like she was more high class.

It was just that…

A gust of wind blew into the cave and Bai Qingqing’s loosely-fitted skirt was blown up. She was so scared that she quickly covered it, feeling as if the wind had blown under her skirt and darted into her body.

It did feel comfortable to be wearing a loose skirt, but… it was very easy for her to suffer from a wardrobe malfunction!

“Erm… I want one more piece.” Bai Qingqing lowered her head and said, blushing.

There was no way that Cortis would reject her. He immediately agreed. “Sure.”

Bai Qingqing put up a fair finger. “Just a small piece will do.”

When Cortis followed Bai Qingqing’s requirements to complete the strange piece of clothing and then saw where Bai Qingqing had put it on, his snake body instantly tensed up, and his pupils became a blood-colored vertical slit.
