Chapter 1009: Mother, Did I Forget Something?
Gu Mengmeng ignored Cole. She just looked at her own hand, which had been washed clean by Lea. She then turned and walked out of the cave.
She called out as she walked. “Wabei, you haven’t eaten for the past few days? Are you hungry?”
Wabei flicked his tongue lazily and narrowed his dangerous-looking eyes. “Mmm, I am a bit hungry. I was just thinking of eating a fifth-level fox to nourish myself.”
Gu Mengmeng didn’t say another word and just headed back into the cave.
Cole had actually wanted Gu Mengmeng to scrape out Snake’s mark from the back of her neck. Ha, even if Gu Mengmeng didn’t say anything, Wabei would never let Cole off.
But if Gu Mengmeng hadn’t indicated otherwise, Wabei might have spared Cole’s life for Chixuan’s sake.
But now, Gu Mengmeng no longer wished to be strung along by Cole.
Chixuan was her son. She would surely have a way to save him.
If she couldn’t let him recover to his normal state, then she would take care of him forever.
Returning to the cave, Elvis sighed. “Why did you do it yourself? You have me.”
Gu Mengmeng used a piece of animal skin to wipe her hand. “I didn’t intend to kill him. I was just so angry that I needed to vent a little.”
Elvis didn’t say another word. He just stood by Gu Mengmeng quietly.
Lea had already washed Gu Mengmeng’s hand until it was very clean, while she herself had used the animal skin to wipe it for a long while. Even so, Gu Mengmeng still felt her hand held the stench of blood. She felt very agitated.
“Mother.”
A soft voice instantly calmed Gu Mengmeng down.
She was no longer bothered about her hand, but immediately went over to Chixuan’s bedside. Chixuan was staring at the cave entrance, and she waited for his next words.
“Did I forget something?”
Gu Mengmeng caressed Chixuan’s face. “Why do you say that?”
Chixuan remained silent for a long while before saying, “I don’t know. I just feel… I seem to have lost something very important. But I can’t recall what it was.”
Cole… was very important to Chixuan.
She knew this when she was trying to hypnotize him.
That was why as angry as she was just now, she had just dug a hole in his right chest and didn’t directly carve out his heart.
Gu Mengmeng forced a smile. “If you can’t remember… it proves that it’s not that important. Why don’t you just cherish the present, alright?”
Chixuan didn’t speak again but just slowly shut his eyes.
Gu Mengmeng fell silent for a long while until Chixuan’s breathing became soft and even.
Outside, Wabei and Cole were engaged in a fierce battle, but Gu Mengmeng took no notice.
Anyway, the one on the losing end would definitely not be Wabei.
“Hubby, I want to go visit my father.” Gu Mengmeng leaned her head on Elvis’ chest, even as she continued to gaze upon Chixuan’s face.
Elvis opined that since Gu Mengmeng hadn’t had a good sleep these past few days, going over to visit the Beast Deity would at least give her physical body a rest.
Hence he nodded. “Alright, I will help you watch over Chixuan. I will not let anything happen to him.”
Gu Mengmeng nodded before gradually shutting her eyes.
Her mind and body were so fatigued that she immediately fell asleep the moment she relaxed. In fact, she hadn’t fallen asleep so much as fallen unconscious.
However, this did not prevent her from entering the dream state to resume her role as a filial daughter.
She saw the two-seater long bench amongst the white mist. But strangely, that patch of greenery had now multiplied in the area several times.
Previously, it was only as big as a bed, but had now expanded to at least the size of a basketball court.
