Chapter 788: You Will Give Me Some Love When Night Falls?
“Day… it’s broad daylight now. What nonsense are you saying?!” Gu Mengmeng blushed and lowered her head.
Lea just gave a meaningful “oh” before whispering close to Gu Mengmeng’s ear. His warm and seductive breath engulfed Gu Mengmeng’s ear, as he said in an enticingly raspy voice, ” So, is this an invitation? You will give me some love when night falls?”
It might just be a psychological effect, but Lea seemed to be radiating even more hormones after his promotion.
She should have been used to being teased, but even after half a year, she remained defenseless against Lea’s attack.
Lea traced one finger down Gu Mengmeng’s arm, from her shoulder to her wrist. It was as if electricity was shooting out from his fingertip, making Gu Mengmeng feel numb all over. The only place she could hide was deeper into his embrace.
Lea was very satisfied with Gu Mengmeng’s subtle action, but he just casually tapped at the Kiss of the Ocean in her hands. “The Kiss of the Ocean can absorb the poison left behind in your body by Snake. If you eat it, we can mate in the future.”
Gu Mengmeng looked at the fist-sized black pearl and pursed her lips. “Are you sure I won’t choke to death on it?”
Lea tapped Gu Mengmeng lightly on her head. “Silly girl, who is asking you to swallow the pearl whole? I can crumble it into pieces for you to eat.”
Gu Mengmeng thought Lea had made the suggestion in jest, but saw that he was really preparing to crush it. She panicked and drew the Kiss of the Ocean back into her embrace with a frown. “No, this is for Chixuan’s ransom. We cannot touch it.”
Lea sighed, but didn’t reach for the Kiss of the Ocean again. He just held Gu Mengmeng in his arms. “What should I do? I am jealous…”
“Oh?” Lea was pressing down on the top of Gu Mengmeng’s head with his chin. She was unable to look up to see his expression.
Lea said, “I concede to the fact that Elvis holds a higher place in your heart, as he is your first partner. But now that wolf pup is also more important than me… Mengmeng, my heart aches.”
Gu Mengmeng laughed in exasperation. “You are all my family and equally important to me. It’s just that Chixuan is in danger now, so I have no choice but to put him as my top priority…”
“I know,” Lea said, “I also promised that I will never put you in a spot. I understand the logic behind it all, but… I just feel rather depressed. I am too greedy, aren’t I? Wanting to be the most important person to you…”
Gu Mengmeng hugged Lea and pressed her face into his chest. She said softly, “I am sorry.”
Startled, Lea twisted his lips and chuckled. “You clearly know that rather than apologizing, I prefer to hear you confess your love.”
Gu Mengmeng didn’t hesitate. “I love you.”
Lea smiled with satisfaction and didn’t say another word.
He had committed a taboo. He shouldn’t have made a fuss over the “most important status” in front of Gu Mengmeng. Mengmeng had wanted to make him her one and only then, but Lea had insisted on pushing her into Elvis’ arms.
Thereafter, Mengmeng wanted him to give up. It was Lea himself who said he wouldn’t mind being a beast pet, as long as he could remain by her side.
But now, he was already her lawful partner, and could rightfully hold her in his arms.
However, men would always be greedy.
They will always yearn for what they could not have. Hankering for more after getting it.
