Lea was taken aback. He shook his head. “I will never abandon you.”
Gu Mengmeng nodded with satisfaction and took another bite of the peach. “In general, saying sorry right after saying I love you means you are going to dump me. If you have no intention of abandoning me, don’t say such things. Otherwise I will misunderstand.”
Lea didn’t expect such a response from Gu Mengmeng. He was momentarily at a loss.
After a long hesitation, Lea asked her cautiously, “Are you not angry? I…”
Gu Mengmeng smacked her lips after finishing the first peach. It was quite a big fruit and Gu Mengmeng placed the peach pit into her clothes. She then looked up at Lea. “Why should I be angry? Because you snatched me away to enjoy a romantic honeymoon?”
From the stories which Gu Mengmeng told Sandy, Lea know what was a romantic honeymoon.
From some angles, that was true.
Lea nodded woodenly in assent at Gu Mengmeng’s words.
Gu Mengmeng chuckled and patted Lea’s shoulders. “You behaved so wantonly yesterday, Elvis would never let you off lightly when we return. Let him maintain order in the family since he is the first partner. I… since we are out, let us enjoy ourselves now.”
Lea thought Gu Mengmeng would be furious at him and would punish him, or even kill him. He never expected her to hold such an attitude.
Twisting his lips, Lea probed. “If… I say we are not going back?”
Gu Mengmeng laughed and rubbed the black wolf mark on her collarbone. “You better think of how to repent when Elvis finds us.”
Lea kissed Gu Mengmeng lightly on the forehead. “Alright, let’s enjoy our romantic honeymoon before he finds us.”
Gu Mengmeng nodded and bit into the second peach.
Saint Nazaire was currently in chaos.
But Gu Mengmeng believed that Lea would never do anything to hurt her. Everything he did was for a reason.
If he did not want to say, she would not ask.
All she could do was to have absolute faith in him. She would not have a repeat of Nina’s disastrous situation.
There would not be any more misunderstandings between them.
For the next three days, Gu Mengmeng and Lea enjoyed a loving, romantic time like before.
Lea brought Gu Mengmeng around for leisurely, sightseeing jaunts. They gazed at the stars, the moon and the sunrises.
He hunted for her, cooked for her and protected her from the elements.
Gu Mengmeng didn’t question what happened that night, and what they were doing now. She never mentioned returning to Saint Nazaire
As Lea immersed himself in this bliss, the maliciousness that was on his face that night didn’t reappear.
It was night, quiet and wondrous.
Gu Mengmeng was sleeping by the bonfire, with Lea’s chest as her bed.
His large, furry tail was draped lightly over Gu Mengmeng’s body. His gaze grew gentler as he watched her sleeping profile.
Crunch, crunch.
Sounds of footsteps on the ground gradually came closer.
Lea’s eyes sprung open in vigilance. His slanted eyes stared fixedly in the direction of the footsteps. Fire burned in his pupils, which was turning a hazy, blood-red.
