She Rong had a clear objective regarding Mao Duoduo's attempt to change the subject.
He stared at the cat, Dodo, without moving. "I want to be with you, and we'll have another litter of kittens."
—By then, he will raise and take care of this large family with her.
In that case, we can let go of the points of contention and pain we once shared...
"Are you kidding me?" Mao Duoduo's expression changed, and she pushed the other person away.
Her breathing changed, and her heart raced, not because of the allure of the other person's handsome face, but because of what he said.
Keep having babies? Are you kidding me?
She has always hesitated to find a partner in this world, mainly because she is afraid to have children.
Besides, she already has Gal...
"Okay, I'll take that as a joke. You can rest assured, we will continue to raise the kids the same way we always have."
Cat Duoduo finished speaking and turned to leave, but Snake Rong grabbed her wrist.
He hugged her from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder, his voice tinged with doubt, which inevitably evoked a sense of pity in her.
Am I not good-looking?
"..."
He continued, "Or do you prefer more muscle, the kind that looks physically strong?"
Seemingly confirming his suspicions, he continued, "Give me some time, and I can become what you want. But for now, one thing is certain: the pleasure they give to females isn't as intense as mine—"
What kind of talk is that?! Just listening to it made CatDodo's ears burn.
Frustrated, she pushed him away and told him to shut up. Good grief, she really didn't want to talk about bedroom pleasures with him.
At this moment, both Snake One and Snake Two, who had overheard these words outside the door, blushed.
Snake Three tilted his head. He had just recovered from a serious illness, and being slow to transform and naturally carefree, he asked, "What does this mean?"
"Ahem, well." Snake One and Snake Two exchanged glances, deciding to try their best to deal with this underling.
Who knew the other party was also bold, and without hesitation, they burst through the door, excitedly shouting, "Daddy, Mommy, you've gone too far! You only sneak off to sleep without taking us with you. Snake Three is very angry!"
The snake cub's sudden remark confirmed that they had all overheard the conversation between the two. Snake Rong was indifferent, but Cat Duoduo blushed and decisively unleashed an unprecedented power.
"Shut up! Look at you! Take good care of the snake cubs!"
Cat Duoduo angrily shook off the other person and went up to hug Snake Three, stammering as she walked away. The important thing was to make the other person forget what happened today and absolutely not let each other have any wild thoughts.
In fact, Snake One and Snake Two were quite troubled, not knowing how to explain themselves when they passed by her.
As a result, Snake Three, nestled in Cat Duo Duo's arms, started bouncing around and began to "act up".
"Mother, you're so mean! You just won't sleep with us. You only want to sleep with Father."
"...Shut up, that's not how it is."
CatDodo started to miss SnakeThree, who used to sleep peacefully.
Snake Three felt wronged and had a lot to say, successfully displaying the aggressive nature of an excellent chatterbox.
"Snake Three must be the most pitiful cub. Mother doesn't want Snake Three anymore, Snake Three is going to cry..."
Listening to this babbling nonsense successfully gave Maoduo a headache, to the point that he finally had no choice but to agree.
"Okay, let's all go to sleep."
It's not the first time, so let's just treat it as practice makes perfect.
This time, the whole family rested on the big bed, and with so many snake cubs separating her from the snake demon, Maoduo was able to barely forget what had happened before.
If it weren't for that inexplicable remark made by the Serpent King before he fell asleep...
"Everything I just said is true."
"..."
CatDodo was speechless.
But Snake Three perked up upon hearing this and kept coming over to ask what it was.
"Alright, go to sleep now, stop fooling around." Maoduo gently pressed the other person down to prevent them from jumping around.
The other snake cubs laughed heartily as they drifted off to sleep, their consciousness yearning for such days to continue until they too fell asleep.
Outside the cave.
Gal stood under the tree, his expression shifting between light and shadow.
With his excellent hearing, he could hear their voices.
After a while, the sound of breathing inside indicated that they had all fallen asleep. Only then did Gal turn and leave.
"Don't think too much about it, she is indeed the mother of the snake cubs."
Even so, he clenched his fists, a dark light flashing in his eyes, filled with resentment and anger.
So he returned to the city lord's mansion and worked all night without a second thought.
The guards who were waiting to arrive in the morning noticed this and were quite worried about it, constantly asking Gal if something had happened.
"It's nothing. I'll take a rest today."
After saying this, Gal couldn't help but walk towards the Serpent Rong family.
At this time, Cat Dodo had already taken Snake Cub and the others to work nearby. Snake Rong, on the other hand, sat on a rock at the entrance of the cave, weaving things with vines.
The thorny vines, which were originally quite sharp, could no longer harm She Rong's seemingly slender fingers. He simply wove, gradually forming a basket.
It was at this moment that Gal arrived, exuding a certain aura. He made Serpent Rong put down his basket and look up.
“Let’s have a fight.” Gal’s expression was inscrutable. “I’m the one who’s more suitable for CatDodo.”
"Are you trying to kill yourself by saying that...?"
The Serpent King stretched his neck and then engaged in battle with his opponent. The two deliberately avoided the cave area and began their duel in their original forms without hesitation.
A short while later, CatDodo returned with the snake cubs and the wild vegetables they had picked, ready to process them. They saw SnakeRongGael fighting and gasped, "What are you doing?"
She stepped forward to stop them, but was stopped by Snake and the others. "Mother, you can't. This is a fight between males, you can't interfere."
Snake Two nodded vigorously, explaining to the side that only the weak would accept the intervention and help of females, leaving Cat Duo Duo speechless.
"...What on earth is going on?!"
After watching for a while, and confirming that the fight between the snakes and the serpents hadn't gone all out, she decided to help the snake cubs prepare the wild vegetables.
"Remember, you must pinch off the roots and stems here, otherwise the food will taste extremely bitter when you add them back later."
"Okay~"
They were waiting for CatDodo and the others to finish cleaning up before SnakeGar finished fighting, but the result wasn't good; it seemed both of them were injured.
However, Snake Rong was soon called by others to help move things. He was very strong and seemed aloof and unapproachable, but unexpectedly he gained the respect of some males.
