Hu Yan's ears twitched at her words. His golden eyes dimmed ever so slightly, ears dropping as if someone had tugged his tail. But Su Qinglan didn't notice. She was too busy glaring at Bai Ling.
Bai Ling rubbed her head with a pout, still looking confused. "Why not? Don't all females worship the Beast God for cubs? Every female I know wants them. Isn't it… natural?"
Her question was innocent and curious.
Su Qinglan exhaled slowly, her expression softening. "I didn't say I dislike cubs. I just… want to wait. For now."
In her mind, though, her thoughts churned.
How bizarre I've become… I only transmigrated here recently, and I'm already discussing cubs? Back in my world, I never even thought about it. I couldn't imagine it. Me? A mother?
She swallowed, her chest tightening.
I always wanted the idea of family… but when it came to myself, I was scared. Afraid I wouldn't be a good mother. Afraid I couldn't protect or care for a child properly.
