Chapter 718: Kid, I Never Knew You Had Another Side To You?!
After Cole left, Gu Mengmeng behaved rather listlessly. Sandy shot Bode a look, after which he said he would bring the three little ones out to practice their hunting.
Since Burke left, Kanwu and his brothers had been under the constant eye of Sandy, and had no chance to go out and play at all. As a result, they were overjoyed with this special privilege today.
Crowding around Gu Mengmeng with wagging tails, they gazed expectantly at her. “Mother, do you think we should go?”
Gu Mengmeng knew her sons really wanted to go. Nevertheless, they still asked for her opinion as they knew she would probably worry.
Gu Mengmeng’s heart grew warm at her sons’ concern for her. She rubbed their little heads. “I will have uncle Auretin go with you, okay?”
A male had a natural sense of respect and adulation towards a powerful figure.
Just like how Auretin respected Elvis, those three little ones also worshiped Auretin for his legendary escapades.
They beamed happily after hearing that their idol would be tagging along.
Gu Mengmeng looked at Auretin. “You are going hunting anyway, help me bring my sons along.”
Auretin remained silent for a moment before saying, “If I bring them along… I cannot guarantee the quality of the hunted prey.”
Gu Mengmeng’s lips twisted. Were her sons being sniffed at?
“Uncle Auretin, don’t worry. We promise to behave. We will stay obediently by your side to learn from you. We can also protect ourselves while you are on the hunt.”
It was Kanwu who spoke, which shocked Gu Mengmeng.
After all, when this kid spoke to Elvis, it was always a “Hey, do you know who my mother is” type of mob boss attitude. Why did Kanwu transform into a little fan boy in front of someone like Auretin?
Kid, I never knew you had another side to you?!
Auretin looked at Kanwu and hesitated for a moment. He then glanced at Elvis with sudden realization.
Being gazed upon with adoration by a pair of eyes which looked like his own idol—this feeling gave one an inexplicable sense of satisfaction.
“Alright.” His face remained stoic, but his mood had obviously improved.
Auretin turned to leave and the three little ones followed close behind. Sandy instructed Bode to look after them well, and to not let anything happen to them. Bode was contented to let his own female order him around.
Although, if… one of those three little was their own child, it would be even better.
But since Sandy was exceptionally concerned over those three wolf pups, then he will defend them with his life.
After the children left, Gu Mengmeng looked like a deflated balloon leaning limp against Elvis. Sandy sat in front of her holding her little hand. With a pang in her heart, she asked Gu Mengmeng, “It is obvious that Cole has nefarious motives. You really won’t be able to touch him now that he has Chixuan in his hands… you, what plans do you have?”
Gu Mengmeng shook her head. “I thought before that the Kiss of the Ocean could cleanse and purify everything. Perhaps it could be used to purge the poison from Chixuan’s body… but Chixuan has yet to transform. In his current condition, he cannot withstand the immense power of the Kiss of the Ocean. If we force it upon him, I am afraid Chixuan will just self-destruct… so the only way is to assemble those five items for Cole, in exchange for Chixuan’s antidote.”
Sandy’s heart also ached. She had also spent a long period of time with those four little ones, and it could be said that she had brought them up. Although they were not her own flesh and blood, she treated them as such. How could she also not fret and worry over them?
