Chapter 167: And If She’s Willing?!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Not long after Lea left, Sandy carried a large pot of fish soup over and the fragrance of ginger could be smelled from far away.
Elvis stood at the entrance of the cave to welcome Sandy. He received the stone pot in her hands and then raise an invitation, “Xiaomeng’s inside. Do you want to go in and accompany her?”
This was the first time Elvis invited other females to enter his cave, so he felt a little awkward. But for Gu Mengmeng, he would still do the things he did not like to do.
Sandy’s heart was long hung on Gu Mengmeng and she did not have the idle time to develop any feelings towards Elvis’s invitation as she just nodded and walked in without restraining herself at all.
Once she entered the cave, Sandy saw Gu Mengmeng curled up in a corner. Sandy puffed up her chubby face and stepped forward to hug Gu Mengmeng into her arms, learning from how she comforted her in the past. Sandy patted her back gently, “Gu Mengmeng, I don’t allow you to waste yourself like this!”
Gu Mengmeng opened her red and sore eyes and upon seeing that the person was Sandy, she wanted to show her a radiant smile so as not to let her worry. But the corners of her mouth were too heavy, despite her using all her energy, she could not bring out a slight angle at all.
Sandy cupped Gu Mengmeng’s little face with both her hands and looked at her seriously, saying, “If you want to cry, don’t force yourself to smile. I’ll be by your side and until you finish crying, we can go and eat delicious food. Bode’s culinary skills improved a lot these few days and the food he cooked is getting tastier. He cooked water shuttles today, so I brought it over specially for you. You won’t feel awful after you’re full.”
Gu Mengmeng shook her head, snuggling against Sandy obediently. She hugged onto Sandy’s waist and sobbed, “I don’t have the appetite.”
This was the first sentence Gu Mengmeng said after coming back from the lake.
Her hoarse voice was faint and weak, causing Sandy to hug Gu Mengmeng back tighter with her heart aching. Her expression was sullen as she said, “You don’t even want to eat delicious food, seems like you’re really feeling awful.”
Elvis felt his chest tightening till he could not breathe properly. The pitiful look of Gu Mengmeng made his heart feel as if it was being pierced by an iceberg and that ice was stuck on the wound. With every heartbeat, that flesh that the ice pinnacle was stuck on would be ripped to pieces, and the pain reached his bones, causing him to lose the desire to live.
Sandy’s entire attention was on Gu Mengmeng and she was not in the mood to care about Elvis’s life. She just hugged onto Gu Mengmeng while swaying her body lightly and said, “Actually, it’s nothing serious. No matter how outstanding Lea is, he’s just a male. You’re so beautiful and at the beauty pageant next spring, you can definitely attract stronger males to pursue you. At that time, let’s choose someone that is better than Lea to infuriate him.”
After saying that, Sandy suddenly tilted her head to look at Elvis before continuing, “Don’t you still have Elvis? You can keep Elvis first and after you finish going through estrus, you can mate with him, then take in Barete and Collin as well. Take this winter to mate well with them and the best case is to bear little cubs during winter. When the snow melts next year and Nina’s stomach doesn’t have any response at all, you can watch whether Lea regrets it to his death or not!”
Gu Mengmeng gave a bitter smile and started thinking that Lea chose Nina because she did not want to mate, if she’s willing…
And if she’s willing?!
Gu Mengmeng suddenly felt a light brightening up in her heart and she stood up abruptly. Grabbing onto Sandy’s arm, she exclaimed, “Lea, I want to see Lea!”
Sandy was unable to understand Gu Mengmeng’s sudden change and she could only turn to look at Elvis blankly with an inquiring gaze.
Elvis’s lips curved upwards but his brows were still deeply furrowed. His eyes were filled with a deep meaning that Gu Mengmeng could not understand or did not want to understand. He used tenderness that could crush one’s bones to respond to Gu Mengmeng with one word, “Alright.”
