Gu Mengmeng pretended to think about it and didn’t speak for awhile. She looked at Sandy worriedly before breaking out into a smile and nodding. “Mmm. Okay. Since my precious Sandy is speaking up for him, I will not abandon him.”
Cole was never Gu Mengmeng’s partner. So even if she wanted to abandon him… she couldn’t.
So Gu Mengmeng wasn’t lying to Sandy.
Sandy heaved a sigh of relief. “Gu Mengmeng, I feel like I should know why you are so angry, but I just cannot recall. What happened between you and Cole that you don’t even allow him to return home? Also, Cole is a fox but Chixuan is a wolf. But why do I keep remembering that Chixuan is the son of you and Cole…”
Gu Mengmeng chuckled. “This is what you can’t figure out?”
Sandy blinked innocently, as if waiting for Gu Mengmeng to solve the mystery for her.
Gu Mengmeng tilted her head with a smile. “I am the daughter of the Beast Deity and possess the genes of hundreds of beasts. Most of my children will take after the race of their father, but a small percentage will take after me. Hede and his brothers took after Elvis, but Chixuan takes after me. Hmm, maybe for my next batch of children, I might give birth to some little bears with Lea.”
“Ah?” Sandy stared nonplussed at Gu Mengmeng. “Really?”
Gu Mengmeng nodded earnestly. “I am omnipotent. I am like the legendary bird who was able to fly 90,000 miles.”
“What?” Sandy didn’t understand.
Gu Mengmeng laughed. “It means that I can fly up to the sky anytime and rub shoulders with the sun.”
Sandy chortled and tapped Gu Mengmeng’s brow. “I cannot stand you sometimes.”
Gu Mengmeng also laughed out loud. “Anything else you can’t figure out? Tell me all your questions, I will answer you.”
After resolving the mystery on the relationship between Cole and Chixuan, Sandy became much less fretful. It was as if a huge rock pressing on her heart had been smashed to bits by Gu Mengmeng. She relaxed and even her tone became lighter. “You never told me the reason behind your fight with Cole. Why are you not even allowing him to return home?”
Gu Mengmeng thought about it. “Do you remember Ellie?”
Sandy nodded.
Gu Mengmeng gave a disdainful look. “I found out that he and Ellie were having an affair.”
“What?!” Sandy slapped the bed and stood up. Her eyes widened with rage. Gu Mengmeng suspected that if Cole was here, Sandy would have charged right up and fought him to the death.
Gu Mengmeng tugged at Sandy’s arm. “Eh, keep calm. A pregnant lady must know how to control her emotions. Don’t get too angry or too excited. It’s not good for the child.”
Sandy gritted her teeth and sat down. “He… how dare he?!”
Gu Mengmeng shrugged. “I caught the adulterers in bed like a pair of old shoes. I saw them with my own eyes, how could I be wrong?”
“No wonder you were so angry that you didn’t want him anymore. Shameless!” Sandy was beside herself with rage. She wanted to scold him but discovered she had no phrases to describe such a despicable act.
Gu Mengmeng patted Sandy’s back to soothe her anger. “Now you know why he just told you that he made me angry, and wanted you to help him plead his case, but didn’t tell you what he did wrong?”
Sandy looked at Gu Mengmeng with tenderness. “Gu Mengmeng, I am sorry. I didn’t know anything and yet… and yet I tried to speak up for him! I won’t persuade you again to forgive him. Do you want to kill him? I will help you!”
