Chapter 1443: Five Sharing One Room
They stayed in the attic and looked at the nest for a while before they went down for food.
Dinner was ready. The meal was sumptuous, and all the males had their fill.
Bai Qingqing then went up to her own room on the third floor. All four of her mates followed behind her.
Bai Qingqing took a look at the big bed and then at her four tall mates standing in the room. She let out a helpless sigh and said, “Forget it. Move this bed away. Let’s just sleep on the floor in the middle. No one will be coming to our home, anyway. I’ll just sleep on the floor in the future.”
“Sleeping on the floor is good. I’ll use the thin vines to make a big nest that is big enough for five to sleep in,” Parker said excitedly, then was the first to run over to take the bed apart.
Under their combined efforts, the big bed was taken apart and moved to the basement.
They laid two thin blankets on the floor, and the bed was considered ready.
Bai Qingqing hugged a pillow and lay down in the middle, switching on the television. At this moment, Xu Qiyang sent an electronic copy of the new contract to her email.
“Curtis, you’re fast at reading. Come over and help to take a look.” Bai Qingqing crawled over to him and raised the phone.
Curtis kept scrolling down. As the screen was small, it took him a few minutes before he was done. He then said, “The remuneration rate is higher, but the rest of the terms are unchanged. They also request Muir to abide by the company’s arrangements once every year. He has the first say in choosing between a commercial endorsement or to play a guest role in a movie.”
He then looked toward Muir.
Muir didn’t mind it at all. “I’m fine with anything.”
Bai Qingqing said, “Then, I’ll be replying to him.”
No one raised any objections, so this matter was settled. Bai Qingqing and Xu Qiyang arranged to meet tomorrow to sign the contract.
In the end, she took a look at Parker, who hadn’t said a word throughout the entire process. She suddenly asked, “Parker, do you know what you’ll be doing? Don’t end up regretting it because you aren’t interested.”
Parker was lying on his stomach on the floor and watching television programs. Hearing this, he immediately said, “I know. It’s just playing a role on television. I watch television shows at home every day, so how can I not know about it?”
“Sigh, I feel things are going too fast,” Bai Qingqing said worriedly.
What she didn’t know was that Winston, who was the only one without anything settled, felt very anxious about earning money.
Winston peeled an apple and handed it to her. “The fruits here aren’t good. Just a few bites will do.”
Busy scrolling through Weibo, Bai Qingqing took a bite of the apple. Although it looked nice, the taste was bland. It was a far cry from the fruits that had matured naturally in the beastmen world.
“Since the house is so big, we can grow a few fruit trees,” Bai Qingqing said nonchalantly.
“Alright,” Winston replied in a deep voice. After Bai Qingqing was done with the mouthful of apple, he offered the apple to her again.
Bai Qingqing took slow, occasional bites. For the convenience of eating apples, she slowly climbed onto Winston, found a comfortable position, and then lay down sluggishly.
Bai Qingqing fell asleep unknowingly with there still bits of apple in her mouth that she hadn’t finished chewing.
Winston heard the changes to his mate’s breathing and gently placed her flat down on the bedding on the floor.
Parker also turned off the volume for the television. Curtis reached out with his tail and switched off the lights.
A place with many plants would have a lower temperature, to begin with. While people might have to switch on the fan when they slept elsewhere, this place was already more cooling.
Winston found a thin blanket and covered Bai Qingqing with it. He then looked at her fondly for a while before standing up.
“You’re going out?” Parker asked in a low voice.
“En, I have some things to attend to.” After saying that, Winston left the bedroom in big strides, then jumped off the third-floor railing.
