Gu Mengmeng was worried that if she did not get up, Gregory would say something else like breaking his wings and being blind, so she no longer tried to hide the drawing and moved to the side unwillingly.
That drawing of ‘troubled Crayon Shinchan’ appeared right before Gregory’s eyes.
Gu Mengmeng carefully observed his expression. Seeing that he was smiling the whole time, and did not seem any displeased, she then slowly heaved a sigh of relief.
If she had to put it into words, the tolerance level of the males in the Beast World to females was as deep as the ocean…
Gregory tilted his head to look at Gu Mengmeng and said, “Can I be angry now?”
“Eh?” Gu Mengmeng was a little stunned and replied, “It’s really ugly, isn’t it?”
Gregory shook his head and said, “It’s not ugly, it’s adorable, but I want you to coax me, so can I be angry now?”
He still needed permission to be angry? If she said that he wasn’t allowed, would he not be angry then?
Gu Mengmeng was a little helpless. She had almost forgotten how little confidence the males in the Beast World had.
Initially before she had bee partners with Elvis and Lea, both of them were also like Gregory. They always behaved according to her wishes and would be extremely cautious in their actions. After they became partners, they would constantly be worried that she would abandon them, especially Elvis, he would be extremely terrified even when she entered the water to grab a lotus root. Only after being through many experiences, they then believed that she love them and would never abandon them. Then, they gradually became more daring and started to control her while spoiling her.
As a result, now, Gu Mengmeng had forgotten how careful the males in the Beast World would be in front of a female they liked, as though they were walking on thin ice.
Didn’t he just want her to act coquettishly and coax him? How difficult would that be?
Gregory took a step forward and put her arms around Gregory’s elbow to swing it. She looked up at Gregory and her teary big eyes were filled with innonence when she said using her trembling voice, “Un~ Don’t be angry~”
Gregory’s bones were all soft after hearing Gu Mengmeng’s ‘Un~’.
Rosy pink creeped up his ears and Gregory coughed guiltily. His gaze fleeted away and he did not dare to look at Gu Mengmeng.
It was him who was expecting her to behave coquettishly yet when she did so, he did not dare to look at her.
His heart was beating so fast that it was almost going to burst from his chest.
He wanted to withdraw his elbow from her hands but he also could not bear to give up on that warmth. He nodded awkwardly and said, “Yeah, I’m no longer angry.”
After Gu Mengmeng realised that Gregory was easily embarrassed, the more she liked to tease him, until his face and ears were red and he could not do anything, whereas she would just laugh enjoyably.
There were four more days until the wind would stop.
The sound of birds chirping entered the cave. Gregory frowned and replied, “I got it. You guys go back first, I will e soon after.”
Gu Mengmeng did not understand the birds’ chirp and only saw that Gregory’s expression was unpleasant, so she asked, “What happened? Is there something wrong?”
For the past three days, Gregory was already used to collecting hunted loots from Auretin every morning, collecting Xue Ling fruits along the way back, then warm himself by the fire while hugging her for a whole day without letting go. He was currently feeding Gu Mengmeng Xue Ling fruits and his mood was bad after being interrupted.
He did not want to let her go, not at all.
But he was after all the tribe leader and he had to settle every big and small matter on Motou Mountains.
Frowning, Gregory nodded and said, “Wait for me in the cave, I will be back soon.”
Gu Mengmeng nodded and did not ask further. After all, this place was Motou Mountains, not Sauder or Saint Nazaire, she did not have the right to interfere with the Birds tribe’s matters.
