The biggest problem that lies in one maturing is that many issues finally become crystal clear.
Elvis and Lea’s accommodation, Auretin and Barete’s silent companionship, Oakley’s hesitation before speaking, and the expectant yet uneasiness in Sandy’s eyes…
These grave concerns caused Gu Mengmeng to not be able to catch a breath, but she did not want to let down the people who cared for her.
Tugging the edge of her lips, Gu Mengmeng nodded at Sandy, “Come earlier tonight, let’s gather.”
It was only then that Sandy smiled, then nodded. The moment she spun around, Gu Mengmeng saw tears in her eyes.
After Sandy left, Barete and Oakley set off as well to look for beehives nearby.
Exhausted, Gu Mengmeng leaned on Lea’s chest, and her gaze fell on Elvis’ face. She wanted to laugh when she saw his worried expression, but the edges of her lips were just too heavy, so she could only give up, speaking monotonously, “It’s just that I am still not used to this thousand years of memories, nothing else… you don’t have to worry so much.”
Elvis walked towards Gu Mengmeng, holding her hand and pulling her into his embrace, hugging her tightly, wishing he could only squeeze all the warmth in his body into hers, then using his body to replace the thousands of years of unpleasant, dry memories. However, there are still things he could not do, despite being the first partner.
“No matter how strong you are, you will always be my soft spot. Not worrying about you… would be something that I would never learn how to do in this lifetime.”
Gu Mengmeng returned Elvis’ hug, sticking her face on his chest gently, her eyes sagging as she slowly said, “Sorry…”
Lea also stood up from the steps, presenting his handsome, flawless face, and kissed Gu Mengmeng, who was in Elvis’ embrace. His loving smile looked like it held the mystery from the deepest end of the sea, plotting to drown her. His voice was hoarse, but was still exceptionally flirtatious, “You clearly know, we prefer to hear you confess than apologise.”
Gu Mengmeng bit her bottom lip, but could not say a word.
Her feelings for Elvis and Lea needed no doubt.
However, she just could not get the words “I like you” out of her mouth right then.
Lea did not force it either, only rubbing Gu Mengmeng’s tiny head, “Today is the first time I’m accompanying you to a gathering in the position of an official partner, if you don’t smile… others would think you were forced into mating with me.”
Gu Mengmeng stopped frowning when she saw Lea’s wronged expression, “I am the messenger of the Beast Deity, who can force me, if I’m unwilling?”
Lea went to the other side of Elvis, placing his arm on his shoulder, looking all sad, “The day when Sauder was choosing its warrior, you said you liked me, then you went back and cried like you were about to suffocate. That night, Auretin came to ridicule me, he said, “How much do you think Gu Mengmeng was not fond of you? To have cried so hard upon saying she liked you”.”
Gu Mengmeng looked at Lea imitating Auretin’s paralysed expression and cold tone, finding it rather comical, and finally cracked a smile.
Finally, seeing a smile on Gu Mengmeng’s face, Lea started trying even harder, continuing, “Then I fought with him, guess what the outcome was?”
Gu Mengmeng shook her head, expressing that she did not know.
Lea raised his head cockily, “Although we are both orcs that peaked at third-level, he is not as smart as me, so naturally he got the short end of the stick.”
