Chapter 122: Gu Mengmeng Telling A Story
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Gu Mengmeng’s mouth twitched, and she gave a fake laugh. Damn it, the longest generation gap was neither from the present world to the ancient times, nor was it one not knowing that the person in front of her likes her, but instead it was gender!
Allegedly, the difference between the chromosomes of a male and a female was even bigger than that of a male and a gorilla.
In the past, Gu Mengmeng thought that all of those were bullshit, but now, she believed it.
Sandy clearly looked like she had become Yoo Sijin’s fan-girl despite the powerful current of time, thus she raised her objection, “What do you know? If your tribe is in danger, do you still continue to date and not protect your tribe?”
The male who had raised his thoughts previously tucked his neck back and hurriedly explained himself, not wanting to make Sandy upset, “What I meant was, what if the female was faced with danger after the male left her at the dating venue just to protect his tribe? How can he leave a female alone outside when there was nobody around her to protect her? Especially when it’s under attack on the tribe…”
Just after the male finished speaking, another male rushed to agree with him, “Yes, if Saint Nazaire was attacked, we will fight hard until our death and sacrifice our lives willingly to protect the tribe. However, the aim of protecting the tribe is to not let the females get injured. So, that’s why every male with a female at home would leave at least several males to protect his female, just like how Sandy only has six males. Stronger males from the tribe would still be sent to protect her. Leaving a female alone in such a dangerous environment is something a male should never do.”
Upon hearing this, Sandy felt uncertain, and she turned her head to ask Gu Mengmeng, “Then why did Yoo Sijin leave Kang Moyeon alone? Was it to protect other females in the tribe?”
Gu Mengmeng smiled and shook her head, fabricating a version that did not belong to ‘Descendants of the Sun’ on her own, “The war was too cruel, he didn’t even know whether he could make it back alive. If he brought Kang Moyeon along, won’t that be implicating her into the danger as well? Isn’t it better to make sure someone makes it back alive?”
These questions made the entire crowd silent, as if these were questions they did not ponder about before. Because the rules in the Beast World were very simple, attack means attack and defense means defense. Only one of them could win. There was only life or death and success or failure and the choice of sending a female away first did not exist.
But if they really met an opponent whose abilities were so much stronger than theirs that even Elvis and Lea could not withstand a single blow in front of their enemies, then, sending away the tribe’s females first… while they return back to fight hard so that they could gain more time for the females to escape. As long as they could run to any tribe, they could still receive proper care, that…
However, Elvis felt his heart being tugged at and he locked Gu Mengmeng in his embrace, speaking in a gentle voice that resembled dripping blood, “The reason why you didn’t want to announce your first partner is because you’re waiting for him?”
“Huh?” Gu Mengmeng’s spine froze, not catching Elvis’s pace at all. Waiting for… who?
“Your original tribe was faced with a strong enemy and to protect you, he sent you away first and let you escape alone while he returned back to block off the enemies to gain more time for you… So, that was why you were alone when I found you in the pond, right?” Elvis did not even dare to look at Gu Mengmeng’s eyes. The way his heart was being torn apart made him suffer in so much pain. This had nothing to do with jealousy nor family status. His heart just ached at the thought of her original tribe experiencing such cruelty.
