Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Gu Mengmeng’s eyes sparkled and the delighted smile that came from deep down within her was one that even f***ing awesome actors could not pull off. Her little hand inched closer to Lea’s bowl stealthily and before she could touch it, she stopped and asked Lea, “Are you really…not eating?”
Lea nodded his head nonchalantly before pushing the bowl lightly to Gu Mengmeng’s hands, replying, “Here, all for you. Eat up.”
Gu Mengmeng grinned brightly from ear to ear as she held the bowl in her arms, saying in deepest gratitude and affection, “Lea, thank you~”
Lea smiled and nodded his head, not saying a word.
He guarded for two days and two nights just for the Xue Ling fruits to ripen. The harsh wind that acted like a blade was as painful as knife cuts when blown all over his body. After persevering for two whole nights, he finally managed to pluck such a small amount of fruits. However…seeing how Gu Mengmeng was eating so joyfully and smiling in so much happiness, it was enough.
Elvis frowned and asked, “These are sour?”
Gu Mengmeng sent a Xue Ling fruit to her mouth before nodding her head delightfully at Elvis, giving her reply.
Elvis poured the Xue Ling fruits into Gu Mengmeng’s bowl in dislike and said, “I’m a wolf, I only eat meat and not grass, especially not this kind of sour grass that would make my teeth all soft and numb. All for you, eat up.”
The happiness came too sudden, Gu Mengmeng strongly felt a combat in happiness~
Biu~~
My life is complete!
Satisfied, Gu Mengmeng divided the Xue Ling fruits into three portions and ate them all into her stomach before rolling on the bed happily.
Elvis and Lea gazed at each other and smiled, what else was there in the world that was more precious than Gu Mengmeng’s smile?
“My mighty queen, don’t you feel hungry after eating all the sour fruits?” Elvis placed the fish and potatoes stew in front of Gu Mengmeng, hoping that she would eat at least one mouthful of it.
However, Gu Mengmeng suddenly covered her nose and shouted, “Hurry! Hurry and take it away! I’m going to vomit!”
Gu Mengmeng’s heart ached for that little Xue Ling fruits so she endured the scorching hot feeling in her throat with all her might to not vomit. Upon seeing her condition, Elvis immediately took the fish meat away and returned with clean water in a bowl for Gu Mengmeng to rinse her mouth.
Gu Mengmeng calmed down and lied at the side of the bed lazily, dead exhausted as she said, “We’re eating potato fish stew everyday, fish potato stew everyday. I want to vomit just upon hearing potato and fish.”
Compared to the past, the food they had this year was already considered very sumptuous. But, to Gu Mengmeng who prioritized nutritional balance, this was simply just mental torment, it’s a torture!
Elvis looked at Lea and patted his shoulder helplessly, “Seems like we’ve to trouble you to make a trip again.”
Lea smiled and answered, “This is the first time I’m grateful to the snow fox blood in me to be able to accomplish tasks for Mengmeng.”
After he finished speaking, Lea turned his head to look at Gu Mengmeng, asking in a gentle tone as if he was a kindergarten teacher pacifying a little child who did not want to eat her food, “Mengmeng, tell me, what do you want to eat? I’ll help find it for you.”
Gu Mengmeng thought to herself, “I want to eat braised pork belly, spicy and sour rice noodles, cold noodles with sesame paste, large mutton buns. If I tell you all these…where are you going to find them?”
Sighing, Gu Mengmeng shook her head and said, “Forget it. In this world of ice and snow, the food I want to eat will not exist. Even if they do, they will all be frozen and spoiled, we can’t eat them.”
Lea thought for a moment and turned to head to the room closest to the outside. He took out all the medicine he retrieved from his own cave and placed them in front of Gu Mengmeng, asking her, “Look at all these, is there anything I can cook into dishes for you like the yellow root?”
