Gu Mengmeng chuckled and asked, “So, do you want to be my grandfather or my great-grandfather?”
Snake gave a cold expression as the atmosphere was instantly ruined to bits by Gu Mengmeng but he did not know why he was not angry. Instead, he felt that this girl who knew how to talk back to him and find faults in him appeared exceptionally comfortable even when she was being sarcastic to him.
Tsking, Snake spoke with a gentle tone which even he could not understand, “Are you using my age to discuss matters again?”
Gu Mengmeng did not deny either as she just smiled and replied, “I have no choice but to, you’re just too perfect in other areas so I only had to use this to attack you.”
Perfect…?
Snake’s eyes were fixed on Gu Mengmeng and there was a moment where he was out of sorts.
His life was so endless, dry and unbearable.
He did not know how he was like in others’ eyes because he felt that every person in this world was overly dull, boring and mediocre.
However, he himself knew how much he detests and hated himself and hope that…..he could disappear.
But what could he do? There was not a single person in this world who could kill him….
And amidst all this daily expectation towards death, the hatred he felt towards his life vanished slowly.
But she said…..he was perfect?
“What’s with that expression of yours?” Gu Mengmeng looked at him in despise and continued, “Don’t tell me that ‘oh, this is not the life I want’ because I’ll beat you up.”
Snake gave a light laugh and said, “You can’t defeat me.”
Gu Mengmeng raised her head and refuted in dissatisfaction, “Who said so? I’m the messenger of the Beast Deity.”
Snake learned from how Lea ruffled Gu Mengmeng’s hair and the corners of his mouth curved slightly upwards.
Yeah, the touch was indeed not bad.
Meeting eyes with her proud and clear large eyes, Snake said, “There’s two messengers of the Beast Deity but as for the Beast King….there’s only me.”
Gu Mengmeng smacked her lips and said, “Look, you’re showing off your perfect life again. Sigh, alright alright, mighty Beast King, you’re the most respectable~”
Snake looked as if he was insistent on teasing Gu Mengmeng as he turned his head and glanced at her, saying every word properly, “Oh, this is not the life I want.”
Gu Mengmeng swung her fist and punched Snake’s chest, saying with a smiley but angry expression, “Sigh, do you know how annoying you are?”
Snake smiled and asked, “Why?”
Gu Mengmeng asked him back, “Do you know what’s a celebrity?”
Snake nodded his head, in his memory, his Mother Beast mentioned it before his Father Beast and her other partners countless numbers of times.
Gu Mengmeng added, “In that world, there’s a type of people called the second generation of stars because their parents are celebrities so since they’re born, they received a lot of attention from others and enjoyed many types of benefits. After they enter the entertainment industry, their journeys are filled with no obstacles because of the complexity and entanglement of their connections and when they earn money that some people can’t even earn in their entire lifetimes, they would say ‘oh, this is not the life I want, I hope everyone remembers me because I worked hard and not because I’m XXX’s son or daughter’ with an expression that showed that they had no other choice while counting their cash. My foot, if it’s not for your famous Father or Mother, who do you think you are?! To not admit that one has received a benefit is the most disgusting thing ever.”
Snake did not quite understand, so he tilted his head to look at Gu Mengmeng, asking, “But I’m not a celebrity.”
Gu Mengmeng rolled her eyes and said, “That’s just a metaphor, what I mean is those kinds of people who possessed opportunities that are richly endowed by nature but still looked as if the heavens robbed away their right to work hard, how disgusting they are.”
