Chapter 1317: Getting Slapped

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Curtis felt the other party’s hostility. He felt both contempt and baffled.

Why was this old female not accompanied by her mate when she went out? To think that she dared to act so arrogantly despite facing him, a male, by herself. Did she think that all males would treat females preciously? What a joke.

Bai Qingqing quickly stood in front of him, smiling as she apologized. “I’m sorry, he isn’t right in the head.” Bai Qingqing pointed to her head and continued, “He just came out of the hospital. I hope that everyone doesn’t hold it against him. Is anyone hurt?”

“So that’s how it is.” The fury in the lady’s eyes turned into pity. The other people stopped complaining and continued to compete against each other to squeeze their way into the bus.

Curtis had no objections to what Bai Qingqing said. The bus started to move and swayed furiously. The passengers who hadn’t taken a seat started swaying as well. Curtis placed his weight down and stabilized his body.

More accurately speaking, the entire bus had sunk a little.

Bai Qingqing’s eyes opened wide, and she paused in her action of getting Curtis to take a seat with her.

“Forget it, let’s just stand,” Bai Qingqing said.

Curtis nodded. “Alright.”

The bus started moving, and Bai Qingqing grabbed onto Curtis to stabilize herself. She said in a soft voice, “Don’t do that again in the future. The people here are particular about moving the mouth and not the hands¹.”

The reply Bai Qingqing received was the sound of Curtis flicking out his tongue.

Moving the mouth? To bite them directly? That’d be too much of a waste. With there being so many people here, there wouldn’t be enough food to go around.

When Bai Qingqing saw the tongue Curtis flicked out, she slapped him out of reflex.

“Pa!” A crisp sound rang out, and everyone on the bus looked toward them.

Turned out that this guy’s violent inclination had been learned from the girl. This was what everyone thought in unison.

Bai Qingqing looked away awkwardly. “Hehe... It’s nothing.”

It seemed that the explanations she had given last night weren’t enough T_T!

After everyone turned their attention away from them, Bai Qingqing leaned against Curtis and said in her softest voice, “You mustn’t flick your tongue out in front of outsiders! You mustn’t!”

Curtis nodded. Looking at his mate’s worried expression, he assured, “I’ll take note in the future.”

He naturally knew that he had to conceal his abnormality. It had just slipped his mind out of habit.

Bai Qingqing didn’t dare to take her gaze off him. She was on tenterhooks as the bus neared her school, and her nervous emotions only calmed down a little after no problems occurred thereafter.

There were a lot of food stalls near the school. In the past, Bai Qingqing liked to eat these foods, and she missed them even more after not having eaten them in five years.

Gulping, Bai Qingqing turned her gaze away with difficulty, taking Curtis’s hand and taking him through the streets.

“Are you hungry?” Bai Qingqing asked.

Curtis took a look at those roadside stalls. “You want to eat?”

Bai Qingqing shook her head. “I had breakfast earlier and am too full. Are you hungry? If you aren’t, then let’s go look for a house first. We’ll then use the rest of the money on food and necessities. I’m worried there won’t be enough money.”

Curtis nodded with an aching heart. It seemed Snow was lacking in money more so than he had expected. He must try to give her a lot of money as soon as possible.

Bai Qingqing brought him to a property agency first, found out about the property prices, then left decisively after realizing that the agency would be taking a fee of half a month’s rent.

Bai Qingqing recalled that there was information on housing rentals put up in many places where one could approach the owners directly. It was troublesome, but it could save them a lot of money.

However, as they didn’t have a phone, they couldn’t call over immediately after seeing the notices. They could only take the information down first.
