Chapter 1278: After Experiencing Warmth, He Would Naturally Fear Cold
Every day, Lea would remind Gregory about the countdown to losing Gu Mengmeng. When his uneasiness and unwillingness to part reached its highest level, Lea would show him another possibility called ‘Ian’.
Someone who lived in cold would not be afraid of cold, unless they experienced warmth;
Someone who had nothing would not be concerned about gains and losses, unless he had something before;
Someone who had no desire would not have any weakness, unless he had greed…
So, Lea kept Gregory by Gu Mengmeng’s side and did not mention anything about Motou Mountains, so that he could gradually lower his guards, then…
As someone who had also struggled to escape from the pit of loneliness, he was even more certain about the attractiveness of the warmth that Gu Mengmeng had brought to a person who had never experienced such a beautiful life.
After experiencing warmth, he would naturally be afraid of cold. And this greedy desire was exactly the chains that had formed around his throat.
Counting from the fifth day that Gregory had left, Sauder had become a chaotic mess.
Before the sun had risen, a dark figure had already charged into the stone castle along with the wind. That speed was so quick that Elvis could not even stand up and could only protect Gu Mengmeng quickly in his arms. He used his sharp claws to strangle the intruder’s throat, yet as though not feeling anything, the intruder shook Gu Mengmeng’s shoulders and looked at her with his bloodshot eyes. “Gu Mengmeng! You’d better open your eyes! Wake up!”
After taking a clearer look at that person’s face, Elvis sighed helplessly and withdrew his claws.
Gu Mengmeng was deep in her sleep when she was shook awake. With a blank face, she looked at Wabei, who had a piercing gaze, and without understanding the situation at all, she responded in a muddled manner. “Little shit… what happened to you?”
“I still wanted to ask you that! What happened to you? Let me warn you, I don’t allow you to die!”
Gu Mengmeng’s shoulder pained from his tight clutch. She took a deep breath and looked at Wabei in his crazy state and slapped his head so hard that he flew away. Then, she rubbedd her shoulders and stood up to walk towards Wabei. She said, “calm down, who told you I was dying?”
Wabei was stunned from the slap and sized up Gu Mengmeng with his wide open eyes. Seeing that she was really unscathed, his pounding chest finally relaxed gradually.
“Luckily you’re fine, luckily you’re fine… Damn it, i was really frightened to death.”
Gu Mengmeng looked at Wabei as he holed up in a corner to calm his emotions down and she could not tell whether to laugh or cry. Kicking him lightly, she said, “I hate it the most when people disturb me in my sleep. Since it’s you, I shall let you off. Think of how to explain it to me tomorrow. If you can’t explain well, I will cut you into pieces to cook snake porridge. Go sleep, the sun is not even up yet.”
Gu Mengmeng returned to Elvis’ arms and fell asleep soon after.
So nice, she had lover by her side, and friends opposite…
Gregory, who was staying in the stone castle to recuperate, naturally witnessed the entire scene. Ha… she was so adorable even when angry, how great would it be if she had inherited the Heart of the Desert?
Gregory did not sleep for the entire night. He only sat quietly outside and stared blankly at the room door that Gu Mengmeng had closed.
The next day when Gu Mengmeng woke up, Wabei had already calm down. Without the urgent emotions of worry, Wabei felt his fear for Gu Mengmeng rising again. He rolled up into a ball in the corner. He was very frustrated with this fear that he had but he could not control himself. Whenever he was near Gu Mengmeng, he would tremble in fear and all his cells would wish nothing more than to escape.
