Gu Mengmeng never discussed this topic further.
From the day she accepted Lea, she knew that she would be destined to be in debt when it came to relationships.
She could only be grateful towards Elvis’s and Lea’s good intentions and then try hard to love them more.
Huddling into Elvis’s embrace, she leaned against his chest, listening to his heartbeat. Gu Mengmeng felt her heart at ease, as if she found someone to rely on.
Elvis fiddled with her hair in a loving way, allowing her to stay nested in his arms like a gentle and lazy cat.
He did not want his retreat and compliance to become Gu Mengmeng’s mental trauma. In the Beast World, a half-orc female could have over ten males. Let alone complete females who had a basic number of thirty to fifty partners. As for the First Beauties in each tribe, they could have hundred over partners. But Gu Mengmeng only had Lea and him.
Even if it was like that, she always felt that she was indebted towards them and this made his heart ache.
He already gave her so little but she still felt that she was too greedy and would always take care of their emotions in utmost cautiousness.
How nice would it be if she was more willful?
That way, she would be much happier.
As the storage food at home were all handled before, with Lea’s fine culinary skills as a plus point, a meal was whipped up very quickly.
When Gu Mengmeng smelled the aroma of the meat, Lea was already scooping the rice and portioning the meat in stone bowls for everyone.
Gu Mengmeng looked at her three sons while eating, feeling a strong sense of warmth.
How nice would it be if Chixuan was here too….
Just as she was thinking about this, a strange sound came from the corner suddenly….
Elvis and Lea turned around agilely while Gu Mengmeng instantly protected her three sons behind her back. Then, she stared at the source of the sound in defense.
The two pieces of stone were pushed open and the next moment, a figure walked towards them from the corner.
Without seeing his appearance clearly, Gu Mengmeng identified the person from his scent.
“Cole?”
Cole did not have time to care about Elvis’s and Lea’s defensive states as he directly walked to Gu Mengmeng, speaking with a solemn expression, “Ah Gu, follow me. Something happened to Xuan.”
The blood in Gu Mengmeng seemed like it froze instantly as her mind exploded.
She did not consider anything as she directly rushed up to Cole.
Elvis grabbed onto Gu Mengmeng’s waist to stop her as he reminded, “Xiao Meng, stay calm.”
Gu Mengmeng turned to look at Elvis blankly, her entire body shaking but not a single word could be said.
Calm down? How to calm down?
Chixuan was her son, he was her son that she was the most indebted to and wanted to make up to the most.
He was a piece of flesh from her body!
“Ah Gu, you know I won’t use Xuan to lie.” Cole grabbed onto Gu Mengmeng’s wrist and said, “Time is tight, I can’t explain to you in time.”
Then, he looked up at Elvis and Lea and said, “If you’re not convinced, you guys can come over. Don’t drag the time any further.”
Elvis swatted Cole’s hand away and carried Gu Mengmeng in his arms. Turning to look at Lea, he instructed, “Stay home and take care of the kids, I’ll accompany Xiao Meng.”
Lea nodded, although he was also not assured to let Gu Mengmeng interact with Cole alone, Mengmeng would definitely go crazy if this was Cole’s strategy of luring the enemy away from her base and something happened to the three little ones.
Cole could not wait a second longer as he directly squeezed out of the secret pathway he came from. Elvis followed behind him while carrying Gu Mengmeng, maintaining a safe distance between them.
