'How did I get it?!'
Just the thought of explaining the process to Yun Ji made Qiao Xixi's scalp tingle.
But she was also worried that not telling the truth would affect Yun Ji's judgment.
"Mating."
Yun Ji's light-colored pupils darkened slightly.
Qiao Xixi felt a little embarrassed, so she could only say with a straight face, "It's just that when I mate with them, a pattern appears on my body."
"Where does it appear?"
Qiao Xixi thought for a moment, then slightly pulled aside her beast-hide clothes, revealing her lower back.
"Here, on my lower back. It's roughly in this area, but... it disappears after, you know... so you can't see it now."
Just as Qiao Xixi was about to let her beast-hide clothes fall back into place, Yun Ji stopped her. She looked up in surprise. "What is it?"
Yun Ji's eyes were downcast, hiding the expression within them.
"Don't turn around yet."
Puzzled, Qiao Xixi kept her back to him. "What's wrong?"
