Having comforted Lea, Gu Mengmeng turned toward Elvis and asked, “Hubby, do you also feel I will abandon you?”
Elvis felt rather conflicted, but still nodded in the end. “After Sandy took in her new partners, I summoned all the first partners within the wolf clan. I took a survey and discovered there is indeed no one else who is preventing their female from taking in new partners. There is no other family who had not taken in a new partner for four years… I came from a stray beast background and am more selfish than others. Moreover, I don’t have anything… I only have you.”
You are my everything so all the more I fear losing you.
After seeing Lea in a panic, Elvis was naturally influenced and also turned fretful.
Sandy’s careless remark just now: Placate them or bring out your female dominance? It was as if she had struck them on the heart, severing the tightest tendon there.
So even outsiders could see they often forced Gu Mengmeng to placate them…
They were the only ones who didn’t realize just how far they had overstepped themselves?
As a result, the two of them kept exchanging looks and became increasingly anxious, until they felt that it would be completely reasonable for Gu Mengmeng to smack the table and say she didn’t want them anymore. Hence their gloomy and fretful behavior.
Gu Mengmeng came out of Lea’s embrace and held Elvis’ face in her hands. She kissed Elvis on the lips. It was not a deep kiss, but a gentle brush.
After a long time, Gu Mengmeng finally drew back with a smile. “Hubby, did you forget something important?”
“Hmm?” Elvis was puzzled.
Gu Mengmeng said, “I was not from here. When I first came here, I had nothing apart from that bikini. I am the one who really has nothing. Aren’t you my first real link to this world? When I was not around, you were already the leader of Saint Nazaire. You and Lea were highly reputed warriors and no one dared to go against you. I still remember when I first arrived at Saint Nazaire, you just had to toss out a cold glance and everyone would keep silent in fear. At that point in time, I was thinking: Mmm, I must cozy up to this powerful man, otherwise I won’t be able to survive in this Beast World.”
Gu Mengmeng changed her position and nestled into Elvis’ arms. She pressed her back tightly against his chest and laid her head on his shoulder. She tilted her head upwards to look at Elvis. “Thereafter, you were really very protective of me. When I was bullying others, you immediately stood on my side without even caring who was in the right or wrong. When I wanted to put Nina into exile because I was so upset over Lea, you supported me without any qualms. You are always looking out for me and considering my interests first. In addition, after we became partners, it feels like I have not used my legs to walk at all. You carry me wherever I go… you have pampered me until I am now completely dependent on you. I probably can’t last even a day without you.”
Gu Mengmeng wrapped her arms around Elvis’ neck and gently kissed his chin. She gave a sweet smile. “You have already integrated yourself completely into my life. You are the one who is my entire world. If I leave you… I have nowhere to go.”
Elvis hugged Gu Mengmeng tightly. He nodded without saying a word.
He never told Gu Mengmeng that he and Lea had been behaving like this—apart from being affected by Sandy taking on new partners—he also felt very uneasy seeing Snake together with the other Gu Mengmeng when they were in the Beast Deity World.
