Lea narrowed his eyes. “You are not allowed to look excited. Your interest in other males will make me feel like killing someone.”
Gu Mengmeng smiled. “Alright. I just wish to know what guest has made you so nervous.”
Lea smiled back. “A male who might become a love rival. I must keep my guard up against him… alright, I am off.”
Gu Mengmeng didn’t treat Lea’s words seriously. In his eyes, every single male had the possibility of being a love rival… erm… actually even females could be treated as love rivals.
After Lea left, Gu Mengmeng leaned back in Elvis’ arms. She considered whether to make a trip to Zacharias after the dry season ended, before returning to Saint Nazaire? She was very worried about Chixuan and Kanwu.
Especially Chixuan. He had sent her grapes last year, claiming to be the young master of the stray beasts…
As long as he had no links to Cole at all.
Elvis let Gu Mengmeng sprawl lazily on his chest. He did not feel uncomfortable at all, but felt this was the most perfect position in his life.
He ran his fingers gently through Gu Mengmeng’s hair. “Go if you want to. I will go with you.”
Elvis didn’t mention that if the visitor was who they suspected to be, ha… then Gu Mengmeng would probably not be able to visit Zacharias or return to Saint Nazaire anymore.
Gu Mengmeng’s curiosity over this sudden visitor didn’t last for long. The dry season was ending soon and she was about to leave. Her two sons were busy managing all sorts of matters within the tribe, especially since things had turned somewhat messy from the secret infighting between the three sides. Luckily, the two brothers were in complete coordination with each other. They could not perform the tasks as skillfully and easily as Lea did, but they at least carried them out steadily and confidently.
Gu Mengmeng didn’t want to bother her sons, and so spend most of her time with Sandy.
After all, the mating rituals in her family had been completed. In addition, two fluffy daughter-in-laws were living at Sandy’s so there was nothing wrong with Gu Mengmeng’s frequent visits there.
It would be noon soon, and it was unlikely Lea would be back in time to make lunch. Hence, Gu Mengmeng thought of going over to Sandy’s to share her meal. Bode was not around and Collin’s culinary skills were obviously not as good as Lea’s, but… in terms of cooking, was there anyone else who was worse than Elvis?
She had just stepped out when she was met with Auretin, who looked extremely disgruntled.
Gu Mengmeng smiled in resignation. Even without asking, she knew why that greedy fellow looked so peevish.
“Lea is not at home now. I am going to Sandy’s to eat. Want to come along?”
Auretin shook his head stonily. “A bird has come, wanting to meet with you. Lea asked me over to ask if you want to see him?”
A bird has come…
“What bird” Gu Mengmeng was puzzled. The only flying beasts she knew were the eagle-owl tribe. If someone from the eagle-owl tribe had come, he must have come bearing bad news from Saint Nazaire. In that case, Lea would not have asked her if she wanted to meet him, but would have just brought him over directly.
Auretin frowned. “A bird that can fly. A very detestable bird.”
Gu Mengmeng thought: Stating the obvious…
“Let’s go and take a look then.” Gu Mengmeng knew it was pointless trying to squeeze any useful information from someone who was in a bad mood from hunger.
Elvis chuckled but didn’t say anything. He just carried Gu Mengmeng out of the stone castle.
The wolf pack guarding the door immediately followed Elvis the moment he emerged.
Gu Mengmeng felt that Elvis really gained some panache after becoming a Beast King. Every time he went out, a pack of wolves followed him as if he was the owner of a major dog kennel.
Arriving at the meeting hall, the wolf pack automatically halted outside. Only Gu Mengmeng, Elvis and Auretin entered the room.
