Looking at this rare scene of an abundance of females compared to males, Bai Qingqing couldn't help but think of Molly, who was desperate for a mate.
This lass was indeed unlucky! During this one year where she just came of age, the young males were deployed outside every so often.
Bai Qingqing found Molly next to the waterhole. She squatted next to her and asked her softly, "Molly, it's been a day since you ate the horned melons. Did you go into heat?"
Molly removed the bag of horned melons hanging from her waist and toyed with it. "No."
Bai Qingqing, who had been secretly dying to try them, commented, "Perhaps it doesn't work."
"Impossible!" Molly said, "Go ask the females in the village. Everyone knows the aphrodisiac effects of horned melons are excellent."
As she spoke, she whipped out a horned melon. "Yesterday, shortly after eating one, my stomach started heating up. It does work."
Bai Qingqing's brows drooped in disappointment.
