His feelings, she knew it all…
Elvis felt so blessed.
“Then let’s get out now, we shouldn’t let Lea wait too long.” Gu Mengmeng thought to herself, although she did not know how long she would be staying in the Beast World, but since she had licked Elvis’s boots, she should just lick it completely. Even if she might be slightly disadvantaged in terms of seniority, what relationship could ever be more stable than a parent-child one? Besides, the pair of godparents she had gotten had incredible capabilities, and they were powerful and influential, what had she got to lose?
Elvis’s smile froze for a second. In the end… he would not be able to have her all by himself. The moment she woke up this morning, she had sought for Lea; the way she looked at Lea on the Platform of the Deity’s Punishment was so affectionate. Together with the influence of the fox seductive fragrance…
It seemed like tonight, Lea would definitely become Gu Mengmeng’s partner together with him.
Although it was the best ending and he would rather the person to be Lea if he had to share Gu Mengmeng with other males, regardless of whether he viewed it from the tribe’s angle or his personal feelings, Lea was the best option, his heart still hurt when he really had to face the situation, even though he knew all the rationale behind this.
Looking at Gu Mengmeng in his arms whom could not wait to find Lea, it was the first time Elvis had a strange feeling in his heart. It felt sour and made him anxious and agitated. It was unrelated to danger, but gave him a heartfelt helplessness. Elvis did not know that the name for this feeling was ‘jealousy’, he only felt uncomfortable at his chest area.
“Who do you like more, me or Lea?” Elvis was shocked himself that he even asked such a lame question.
But Gu Mengmeng burst out into a chuckle.
Damn, wasn’t this the question that parents always ask their kindergarten children?
Who do you like more, mommy or daddy?
Oh my god, she did not expect herself to be asked this type of question when she was already in a university.
The first trick to answering this question was to not offend anyone, or else she would be hated on for her entire life and regularly get sneered at. Gu Mengmeng, who was an expert at this, cleared her throat and said in an authoritative way, “I like both of you, both of you had treated me so well, I like both of you~”
True enough…
Elvis’s heart sank.
She liked Lea, as he had expected.
“Who do you like more between the two of us?” This question concerned the future status in the family, it was important to determine who was going to be the first partner.
As expected…
The first follow-up question after ‘mommy or daddy’ would be: You can only choose one!
Gu Mengmeng pursed her lips and thought, Leader, it was you whom forced me to use the ultimate trick!
Hence, Gu Mengmeng turned the situation around and asked back, ” What about Leader? Do you like Lea or me more?”
“You. ” Elvis answered without hesitation.
Gu Mengmeng’s mouth twitched. What the heck, a mother’s love towards her children was boundless, as expected~ Even the godmother loved her child more than her husband?!
“What if Lea and I both fell into a river, would you save me and let Lea drown?” Gu Mengmeng did not give up and continued asking.
“Lea can swim,” Elvis answered calmly, “Besides, you are a female.”
Gu Mengmeng facepalmed. Why could Elvis answered the question that had tortured Chinese men for thousands of years so easily?
Well, ‘you are a female’ was really a sure-fire reason for anything in this place where the gender ratio was extremely unbalanced.
“You still haven’t replied to me, who do you like more between me and Lea?” Elvis continued asking.
