Gu Mengmeng sighed. “How many tribulations have we undergone due to a lack of trust? I have already learned my lesson. So regardless of what I see, I choose to have complete trust in Elvis and you.

Lea hugged Gu Mengmeng and nuzzled her neck. Gentleness and contentment glowed in the deepest recesses of his eyes as he kissed the side of her face. “Thank you. I love you.”

Gu Mengmeng leaned into Lea’s embrace and chuckled. “Don’t think that I will let you off just because of a few sweet nothings. Why did you drug my dinner?”

Lea stiffened like a child who knew he was in the wrong. He murmured in a low voice. “You are afraid of blood...”

Eh...

It was the same misconception set down by that perverse Coming-To-Age Ceremony.

Since she cried from fright during her Coming-To-Age Ceremony, no matter how she hard she tried to explain, Elvis and Lea believed that she was afraid of blood.

But heaven knew her body now contained a thousand-year-old lonely soul, and it was the most bloodthirsty and cruel soul in the whole world.

There were so much blood-drenched scenes in her memories that she was already numb to the sight of it.

“How did you know that Cole would come today?” Gu Mengmeng could no longer be bothered to explain that she was not afraid of blood. Anyway, she could try to convince the two of them until her throat was dry and they still would not believe her.

Lea narrowed his eyes slyly. “Because he is greedy.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Huh?” Gu Mengmeng was confused.

Lea gently stroked Gu Mengmeng’s hair and whispered into her ear. “He thought that you would definitely choose to abandon me when faced with such a situation, but you didn’t. Not only did you not abandon me, you bore no grudge against me and accompanied me on a jaunt. Your love and doting for me ignited Cole’s jealousy. That was why he would definitely appear to snatch you away and destroy everything.”

Gu Mengmeng lowered her head. “So this is your original plan? You knew I would definitely not abandon you and would make the choice that would drive Cole to jealousy?”

A sliver of hesitation and lingering fear flashed past Lea’s eyes, but was quickly replaced by a happy relief. “Yeah, I believe that my Mengmeng will bring me joy.”

Gu Mengmeng knew that whether it was Lea or Elvis or some other male in this Beast World, love would always be entwined with loss. They lived in a situation that meant they could be abandoned at any time. It was a very difficult thing for them to have absolute trust. Nevertheless, Elvis and Lea had been trying their best to believe in her.

But...

If she told them the story behind those five treasures, would their hard-fought trust in her survive?

Gu Mengmeng frowned worriedly.

After all, Elvis would nearly go mad if she just went near the side of the lake.

Lea was holding Gu Mengmeng from behind and didn’t notice her frown. But Elvis was facing her and clearly saw her worried face. He slowly settled down beside Lea but didn’t pull her away from him. Elvis just gently took up her little hand and gazed at her with deep, warm eyes, without saying a single word.

Lea looked at Elvis and again at Gu Mengmeng. He could not detect the slightest trace of that crazy jealousy.

Curling his lips upwards, Lea kissed Gu Mengmeng left ear. “I feel that our current state is optimal. I am happy as long as you are happy.”
