  Gu Mengmeng hopped towards Lea with Sandy. Meanwhile, Lea had started a tiny flame by learning from how Elvis bored wood to start a fire earlier on the Platform of the Deity’s Punishment.

  Lea’s brows were slightly furrowed. Animals’ sense of smell were much more sensitive than humans’ and furthermore, beasts had a better sense of smell than animals so this smoke obviously choked Lea.

  All along, Gu Mengmeng was someone who took pity on good-looking people so seeing how Lea was feeling unwell, her heart ached a lot. She hurriedly took away the wooden stick in Lea’s hands and said, “You’re done, you’re done, Daddy Lea, go and rest now. Leave everything here to Sandy and I.”


  Lea’s lips curved up slightly. He liked the way Gu Mengmeng was caring for him. Pulling in his large tail, he encircled Gu Mengmeng and placed her behind him. He used his body to block the smoke from her and said while looking at her gently with the corners of his eyes, “This will choke you and my heart will ache.”


  Pound…… pound……

  Daddy Lea definitely knew how to hit up girls. Gu Mengmeng felt her bones falling apart, and she almost drowned in that light smile of Lea that could mesmerize everyone.

  NO! NO!

  Gu Mengmeng turned her head to look at Sandy who was sitting at one side, well-behaved, “Those squatting and smelling over there are your males?”


  Sandy looked over at the direction where Gu Mengmeng was pointing to and then turned back to Gu Mengmeng and nodded, “Yeah, that’s Bode and the rest.”


  “Why don’t they come over?” Gu Mengmeng could not understand.

  Sandy seemed to be already used to Gu Mengmeng having no common sense, so she did not think too much about it and just explained patiently, “This is Elvis’s territory. Without his permission, other males can’t enter as they wish. If it wasn’t because of you, females like me wouldn’t be able to enter as well.”


  Gu Mengmeng asked with a blank but adorable expression, “Has Elvis always been this solitary and not interacting with others?”


  Sandy could not help but smile as she shook her head, “Elvis is not solitary. Every male has his own territory consciousness and other males can’t trespass as they wish or else it will be considered as a challenge and they will be attacked.”


  Gu Mengmeng blinked her eyes and touched her chin before saying, “What if I need to find you in the future? What if I enter the territory of other males…… would I die very badly?”


  Lea, who was adding dried leaves into the fire, added casually, “Don’t worry. You have Elvis and I, nobody can hurt you.”


  Both of Gu Mengmeng’s eyes shone like stars and she clasped her palms together in front of her chest, looking at Lea in worship, “Daddy Lea is so reliable!”


  Lea laughed and did not say anything. He just added a large handful of dried leaves into the fire out of joy and almost put out the tiny flame which was just started.

  “Gu Mengmeng, why are you calling Lea ‘Daddy’? What does ‘Daddy’ mean?” Sandy tilted her head and looked at Gu Mengmeng, asking, resembling a curious baby.

  “Daddy……” Gu Mengmeng felt a strong sense of despair. The combination of Daddy and Mummy was the first words she picked up when she was learning language but she did not know how to explain these titles by their literal meanings.

  After thinking for a long time, Gu Mengmeng forced out her words, “Daddy is the most reliable male in this world and will save us from any danger and obstruction. Regardless what kind of difficulties we face, he will step in front of us to protect us and ensure our entire lifetime’s safety. Daddy is the only male in this entire world that would never abandon us or betray us.”


  She said, only……

  Lea’s heart contracted out of control. This was the first time he heard this familiar yet unfamiliar word from a female.

  Was…… the only she said…… referring to him?
