Elvis heard Gu Mengmeng’s cry of pain but he could not control his shaking arms. He was afraid that if he released her by even the slightest bit, Gu Mengmeng would vanish like the wind and never come back as long as there was space for her to escape.

“Elvis,” Gu Mengmeng heard her bones cracking after being so tightly hugged at but she did not bear to scold him and just call out his name again.

“Xiaomeng, don’t leave me.” Elvis said.

Gu Mengmeng stayed silent, how could she promise something she could not accomplish?

“I’m not fighting for the title of first partner. Before you forget him completely… I would ask for neither cubs nor mating and even a title. I just want you to stay by my side and let me take care of you. Don’t go, don’t go…”

Gu Mengmeng paused for a moment and then realized that the “him” Elvis was talking about referred to Yoo Sijin. At the same time of feeling helpless, she also heaved a sigh of relief. Although it was a fabricated character, it at least helped to relieve her from the extreme urgency. She had nothing to lose from being shipped as a couple with Song Joong-ki, regardless.

Since Elvis firmly believed that she could not forget her old love and had also promised her that he would not XXOO with her before she forgets him, she just had to wait for Elvis to no longer have any feelings towards her for him to naturally give up the idea of mating with her.

Weren’t males are like this? How much passion for love could they have?

Thinking about this, Gu Mengmeng squeezed both her eyes with all her might to appear like tears were going to drop any moment. She acted as if she was hurt from love and said, “Alright, before I give up on him, you can’t force me. As long as you accomplish what you said, I won’t leave. ”

“Really?” Elvis leaned his upper body backwards using his height advantage and stared down into Gu Mengmeng’s clear eyes. It looked like this was the only way for him to reassure Gu Mengmeng’s promise: not to leave.

Gu Mengmeng nodded her head cautiously and then smiled in a comforting way, “I just don’t want to mate. Besides this, I still like Saint Nazaire a lot. Both you and Lea treat me very well and there’s also the cute Sandy. I promised to make her all kinds of delicacies. If I leave like that, she would definitely cry very badly and whine that I went back on my words. I can’t bear to see the tears of my baby Sandy.”

As Gu Mengmeng said, she wriggled out of Elvis’s arms and distanced herself from him before continuing, “But, since I can’t mate with you, I can’t accept your care for nothing. I can do some stuff with my own abilities to exchange for my food and a place to stay. Eating without returning something back is not my style.”

Elvis wanted to say, “You staying behind is good enough.”

But he did not have the time to speak when Lea appeared from outside and replied on behalf of Elvis, “Alright, why don’t you teach me how you revived Barete? Telling this ability to the tribe’s witch doctor would be considered as a large contribution to Saint Nazaire. As a reciprocation, I, the witch doctor and Elvis, the tribe leader, would be responsible for your food and life necessities this winter, how about that?”

Gu Mengmeng look at Lea and heaved a sigh of relief.

The atmosphere with only her and Elvis was really too awkward. Now with an additional person, it felt so much more relaxed.

Her eyes curved up as she chuckled and shook her hands, saying, “It’s not reviving, Barete was not even dead in the first place. He was just dehydrated and feeling faint after not eating, drinking and moving for three days. A little water to nourish him would be enough for him to wake up. But speaking of that, Barete’s body condition is really strong. Just drinking a few mouthfuls of water was enough for him to start walking. If it was at our side… he would have to be hospitalized for a few days to recover.”
