Gu Mengmeng opened her mouth and bit hard into Elvis’s shoulder.
While it was not that painful, Elvis cleverly shut his mouth and did not finish his sentence.
Gu Mengmeng could only leave a faint mark on Elvis’s shoulder even with a sore jaw. Feeling discouraged, she rubbed her numbed cheeks, before staring at Elvis angrily and said, “If you dare to die out there, I will knock myself to death in this very cave. I will haunt you down even after I turn into a ghost, I will pull your ears and ask, who gave you the courage to leave me behind.”
This was the first time Elvis was attacked and he did not strangle the opponent to death immediately. Surprisingly, he did not feel angry at all, but only sweetness filling up his heart chambers. He hugged Gu Mengmeng into his arms and said gently, “I am strong. And for you, I will be even stronger.”
Gu Mengmeng broke into a grin and pecked on the place she had just bitten, “Now that’s being clever, after all today is a joyous occasion where we just got married, it’s so inauspicious to talk about deaths. I want you to live on, to live long, together with me.”
Elvis rubbed Gu Mengmeng’s head affectionately and said, “Xiao Meng, you have to promise me one thing.”
Gu Mengmeng tilted her head, looked at Elvis and replied with a “Eh?”
Elvis paused for a while before continuing, “If one day, I really do encounter some danger of which I could not make it back… Don’t knock yourself to death, you have to protect yourself well and live long for me, you understand?”
Gu Mengmeng became angry, she turned around and ignored Elvis.
Elvis circled around Gu Mengmeng from behind, his voice was still gentle, but there was a little pleading in it, “You are the only reason for me to sacrifice myself to fight, you being alive and living on happily is my greatest wish. Promise me, at least… let me rest in peace.”
Gu Mengmeng got even angrier, she turned around and pulled Elvis’s ear. “What now? You are already planning on my widowed life right after mating? You still continued even when I didn’t allow you to. If I don’t show you my power, you’ll think I am a Barbie girl yeah?”
Elvis cooperated by letting out a few moans and he pleaded by saying he would never do it again.
Gu Mengmeng released him. Looking at his red ears, Gu Mengmeng felt sorry and rubbed it. “You are such an idiot, can’t you run away when I pull your ears?”
Elvis held Gu Mengmeng’s hand close to his chest and smiled, “But I don’t want to leave you, not even for a step.”
Gu Mengmeng smiled and leaned into Elvis’s arms.
Growl growl..
A familiar yet awkward noise sounded from Gu Mengmeng’s stomach.
Gu Mengmeng clutched her stomach and smiled at Elvis eagerly, “You sure are hungry, I will go and make some food.”
Elvis did not stop Gu Mengmeng. With his appetite, the food that Gu Mengmeng could barely fill his stomach. But he did not want to tell Gu Mengmeng, because… he could save more food for her this way.
Gu Mengmeng ran further into the cave happily. Elvis had carried her here for a few times and she roughly knew where things were.
“Roasted sweet potatoes oh roasted sweet potatoes~ how sweet and delicious you are~” Gu Mengmeng kneeled at one side and picked out two of the appropriate sizes from the pile of sweet potatoes, ready to roast it on the fire pit later.
Fire…
Gu Mengmeng suddenly remember, this is deep into the cave and the lights from the entrance would never be able to reach here, then…
Gu Mengmeng looked down at the two sweet potatoes in her hands, she could even see the lines of the cracks on their skin clearly.
What the heck! Cheat?!
