As compared to Elvis, Lea had a higher tolerance towards alcohol and Elvis was stronger than Lea so when Lea’s drunk, at least there’s Elvis present to suppress him. So, after a discussion, both of them decided to let Lea try the wine while Elvis should not touch a single bit at all.
Gu Mengmeng said that there’s actually no need to do that because there’s only a few barrels of grape wine. Currently, the available grapes were only the small amount at the stray beasts’ camp. And Peter was not the stray beasts’ leader anymore, it was not as easy as before to pluck grapes at the stray beasts’ camp so Gu Mengmeng still wanted to save the grape wine she had and drink them carefully.
Since Elvis and Lea were not good at drinking wine, they should not force themselves because she could drink all my herself, gosh!
But Elvis and Lea did not allow her to do that because they firmly believed that grape wine was a dangerous item. Unless Lea successfully examined that it would not bring about any danger, they would not allow Gu Mengmeng to touch that thing herself.
Thus, Gu Mengmeng, who could drink alcohol, was prohibited from touching the wine while Lea, who collapsed on just one cup, was stuck in a drunk mode all day….
Drunk Lea had a variety of styles, he chased after Gu Mengmeng before while swinging a leather whip and also removed his beast-skin dress in front of Gu Mengmeng before while bitting onto his lower lip, exposing himself completely and begging to be trampled on.
He battled with Elvis before, baring his fangs and brandishing his claws and also hugged Elvis before while shedding bitter tears over his younger days….
Overall, because of Lea’s dazzling variety of appearances, winter was not that lonely after all.
It’s just that, Lea finished the few barrels of wine but no improvement in his alcohol tolerance was seen.
It was not zero improvement, just that…..yeah, he improved from one cup to one and a half cups, how could Gu Mengmeng bring herself to say that he improved?
Normally, after drinking for such a long time, one should improve to a bottle from a cup, right?
Her heart ached at her few large barrels of grape wine….
She really felt that she slogged her hearts out for nothing.
When a crack appeared on the snow that sealed the cave entrance, Gu Mengmeng knew that winter was finally over.
Lying in Elvis’s arms, looking at Lea whose mental state became better after not getting drunk for two to three days because he drank finish all the wine, Gu Mengmeng smiled helplessly and said, “Leading a befuddled life as if drunk or in a dream for the entire winter, do you still remember what we planned before winter?”
Lea supported his forehead, being in an endless drunk state made him lose his winter memory other than that mating process. All that’s left in his mind were messed up scenes of him throwing a drunkard fit.
What they planned before winter…..
Closing his eyes, Lea tidied up his thoughts and asked, “Mengmeng, what do you plan to do after winter ends?”
“Huh? Didn’t we arrange to head to Motou mountains?” Gu Mengmeng questioned him back.
Lea laughed, saying, “When did we ever arrange things? Everything is up to your mood.”
Gu Mengmeng chuckled, saying, “So, there’s another choice besides going to the Motou mountains?”
Lea nodded, answering, “I spread two news before winter, one’s about you telling Maya about the Motou mountains yourself, the other one is my ‘accidental revelation’ regarding the Heart of the Desert.”
Gu Mengmeng was confused as she asked, “But none of us know where the Heart of the Desert is, it can’t be one of our choices.”
Lea’s lips curved into a pretty arc, he stared at the snow sealing the cave entrance that had a crack but not yet smashed, as if deep in thoughts, saying, “After winter ends, it will come find me itself. Just like the Kiss of the Ocean and the Soul of the Forest….”
“You’re talking about…Cole?” Gu Mengmeng frowned, asking.
Lea nodded, answering with a smile, “A winter is enough for him to plan his strategy. Now all we have to do is to look at the Heart of the Desert and the Love of the Sky, which one do you want first?”
