Looking at Gu Mengmeng’s exceptionally gentle look, even his wolf eyes could not conceal the tenderness in his gaze.
His female truly understood him.
However, Lea’s words reminded him that rather than battling Wabei, it might be more effective if he went one round with Gu Mengmeng.
Gu Mengmeng held Elvis’ face. It was the obviously savage face of a wolf but she did not feel frightened at all. Even if she were to reach her hand into Elvis’ mouth to count his sharp teeth, she would not feel the slightest trace of fear.
Giving Elvis a kiss, she said, “You are looking at me with such impure intentions. You look like you want to eat me up.”
Elvis growled: You guessed right. I really want to “eat you up”.
Gu Mengmeng patted Elvis gently. “Alright, today you will lie here and rest. We will not do any traveling today. We will move out tomorrow after you have recovered.”
Elvis didn’t object and just nodded.
After all, they had made good time during the three days when Gu Mengmeng was asleep. They had specially done that so that they could slow down the pace when she woke up, to make the journey less strenuous on her.
Gu Mengmeng walked over to Wabei’s side and sat down in a kneeling position. She sneered at him. “What do you think? I have good taste in men, right?”
Wabei snorted. “So-so. If not for your interference just now… he would be suffering from more than just two broken ribs now.”
Gu Mengmeng thought: Yeah, if I had not interfered just now, that superficial wound on your chest would be one gaping hole. You don’t need your organs anymore?
The more these two had fought, the more heavy-handed their moves had bee. Tsk, no self-control at all.
Nevertheless, Gu Mengmeng didn’t wish to provoke them further. After all, all this was just so they could vent their frustrations. Now that she had achieved her intended results, why stir up new resentments?
So Gu Mengmeng held her tongue and instead asked, “Will it kill you to praise me for once?”
Wabei remained stubborn. “It’s not my fault if you have bad taste. I am not one of those fools so besotted by you. You want me to flatter you? Wait another hundred years!”
Gu Mengmeng laughed and gazed coquettishly at Wabei, until he felt his hairs all standing up. She then casually pointed to the back of her neck. “Don’t you forget, Snake is also my man…”
Although they did not bee partners in the Beast World—looking at the present-day Snake, her other self probably stood no chance against him. So it was not a lie to say so in principle.
Wabei choked as his face turned red. After a long silence, he finally spat out the words. “You have such good taste!”
Gu Mengmeng laughed. “Aiyo, a hundred years passed so quickly. In the blink of an eye.”
Wabei slumped over, utterly depressed. He was already at the ripe old age of…800 years old.
The next morning, they prepared to move out. There was not much to pack, with only two newly skinned furs from the prey hunted by Lea yesterday. They would be used as cushioning for Gu Mengmeng during the journey.
As they left, Gu Mengmeng gave a light laugh and called out. “You finally ditched your little tails.”
Wabei chuckled. “So you planned for this when you had Elvis and I engage in battle yesterday.”
Gu Mengmeng didn’t reply but just smiled.
Wabei had brought along some colorful snakes for this trip, but kept them away from sight as he knew Gu Mengmeng didn’t like them. Instead, he dispatched them to their surroundings as security alerts and scouts.
