Lea squinted, trying to adjust to the sunlight shining on his face. Turning to look at Gu Mengmeng, he placed his fingers on her left ear and said after a chuckle, “Back then, you took away all my confidence. And….Cole was indeed better than me in some areas. After all, I kept imitating him. How can I surpass him if I kept stepping on his footprints?”
Her two males had confidence near to a level of conviction in other areas but when it comes to relationships, they both were so inferior until they disappeared like dust.
Gu Mengmeng was helpless as she asked while staring at Lea, “You’re not scared now?”
Lea pulled Gu Mengmeng up. She did not have any strength left and did not want to resist either so she just allowed Lea to pull her against his chest like a puppet.
Lea kissed Gu Mengmeng’s earlobe and then chuckled, asking, “Do you know why I insisted on letting Elvis take the role as your First Partner?”
Gu Mengmeng pondered over it for a moment before replying, “You’re scared that I won’t accept Elvis after I mate with you and you can’t fulfill the promise back then?”
Lea shook his head and said, “You’re not entirely heartless towards Elvis and besides, you’re kind and have a soft heart. If I was the one to set things up….the time you’ll take to accept him will be shorter than the time you took to accept me.”
Gu Mengmeng thought about it, oh right.
Nodding her head to give her silent consent, she asked, “Then why?”
Lea touched the snow fox mark on her ear and said with a misted gaze, “Because I know how selfish I am.”
“Huh?” Gu Mengmeng did not understand Lea.
Lea gave a bitter laugh and explained himself, “If I’m the First Partner, even if I know that I can’t protect you alone, I rather pull you to die with me instead of letting you take in a second male. But Elvis’s different, for your sake, he can abandon everything and can also overcome everything, even if you want him to crush his own heart bit by bit. As long as you’re happy, he won’t object to it. It’s the safest and most beneficial choice for him to become your First Partner. Both of you have to mate first for his abilities to surpass me so that I can put my heart at ease to stay by your side because……when I lose control and become crazy from all the jealousy, someone can protect you amidst all the chaos.”
Lea criticized himself until he was worthless but Gu Mengmeng smiled and poked Lea’s brows, comforting him, “But a selfish you gave your position as First Partner to Elvis just to ensure my safety. So….I believe that regardless of whether it’s you or Elvis, both of you won’t hurt me.”
Lea let Gu Mengmeng poke his forehead as much as she wanted. The corners of his lips curved upwards unknowingly while watching her gentle and calm eyes.
“We naturally won’t hurt you, but….I’ll hurt those males who have a motive for getting close to you.”
Gu Mengmeng laughed lightly, not denying what he said
She just need Lea and Elvis in her life. After going through the incident with Snake, she clearly knew that she should not emit any kindness from the start if she did not want anyone to get the wrong information.
At times, turning a blind eye was a type of benevolence.
Lea said, “Elvis and I will give you absolute doting and pampering to satisfy all your needs…..so, I won’t give any male the chance to snatch your favor away. I don’t care about the price I have to pay and will go to all extents to stop them.”
