Gu Mengmeng sighed, âThere is only one of this fruit tree. Since you knocked it down, I will never get to eat this type of fruit again once I finish the supply in front of me. Is it worth being happy over?â
The demon gave her a cold look and scorned, âI may not have much of others in the Snake King valley, but I sure have countless fruit trees. Based on your eating speed for your small appetite, Iâm afraid you wonât be able to finish eating all of them even till you die.â
Gu Mengmeng smiled awkwardly, âThen what if I donât like any other fruits except this one?â
The demon raised his eyebrows, âYouâd dare?!â
Gu Mengmeng really felt that she had never experienced someone so difficult to communicate with in her life... But considering how powerful he was, she could only say âI donât.â in fear.
It was only then that the demon smoothed his expression, passing another bunch of fruits to Gu Mengmeng, âEat them all, since you like them.â
Gu Mengmeng shook her head, âNo matter what, I canât possibly finish them before they rot. Rather than leaving them to spoil, we could keep some to eat and bury the rest. Perhaps in this bunch, there will be one with a seed, and this type of fruit tree can just be grown again in a few years.â
The demon slurred over the matter, only replying coldly, âItâs the survival of the fittest. If this goes extinct, it only goes to show that it is a species meant to be eliminated. No matter how hard you try, how many can you salvage?â
Gu Mengmeng smacked her lips, âOne is better than none.â
Not saying anything further, the demon only stretched his head lazily, lying sideways while watching Gu Mengmeng eat seriously. He only pulled Gu Mengmengâs hand and activated âconjoined twinsâ mode when she really could not eat anymore.
Gu Mengmeng sighed, submitting to her fate as she followed behind the demon, âWhere are we going?â
The demon, âSun tanningâ.
Gu Mengmeng felt as if she was really being treated as a pet dog. Being fed at fixed timings, being brought out for a walk after food...
Gu Mengmeng sat on a flat rock, tanning under the sun with the demon while lowering her head and zoning out while looking at her shadow.
The demon held her tiny palms tightly, asking, âWhat are you thinking about?â
Gu Mengmeng looked at the demon, her question stuck in her throat as she did not dare to ask simply.
Seeing how Gu Mengmeng was holding herself back, the demonâs expression ran cold, âMissing your six wild men?â
Gu Mengmeng choked, thinking: Six? Where did the six come from?
Counting with her fingers: Elvis, Lea, Ian... Ah, and Hede, Jialue and Kanwu.
Pfft, the three children were her biological sons, Elvis was the original legal husband, Ian was merely a subordinate with no love affair. If they were talking about wild men, only Lea would be considered!
Gu Mengmeng was displeased but she did not dare to retaliate, so she could only murmur softly, âThey are not wild men...â
The demon flipped behind Gu Mengmeng, pressing one hand on top of Gu Mengmengâs head while the other one supported her chin. Squinting his eyes, he released a dangerous warning aura, âOther than me, all the males around you are wild men.â
Gu Mengmeng was not convinced, âWho are you to say that when you are not even my man?â
The demon pinched Gu Mengmengâs face, putting his lips on hers, just placing it there without going any further. He only slowly released after a long while, âNow I am.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Gu Mengmeng used all her might to wipe her mouth, looking at the demon with a face of defense and despise, âA scholar prefers death to humiliation, youâre acting indecently!â
