  Elvis’s two simple words successfully grabbed hold of everyone’s attention.

  Instantly, other than the sound of the flapping sound from the firewood, everyone just stared at Gu Mengmeng in silence, causing her to feel uneasy uncontrollably.

  She just took a nap, was there a need for the whole tribe to surround her?

  “Alright, let’s dig in.” Elvis carried Gu Mengmeng and stood up, sitting down again after reaching the campfire.

  Gu Mengmeng was pretty worried so she asked, “Your body’s still not recovered, is there no problem carrying me like that?”


  Elvis raised his brow and laughed, saying, “It’s just a small injury. After carrying you for a whole afternoon, I’ve already recovered quite well.”


  Gu Mengmeng rebuked, “What’s the use of carrying me? I’m not even medicine.”


  Elvis played with Gu Mengmeng’s hair, tangling it around his finger and pulling it to his nose to take a sniff. Chuckling, he said, “You’re my elixir savior, nothing is more effective than you.”


  Gu Mengmeng did not answer him. If she was not aware that there was no Internet here, she would have suspect Elvis of reading some strange online novels while she was asleep.

  She looked at the campfires surrounding her, including her campfire, there was a total of 19.

  Every family had a fireplace, that means that no female died in this battle.

  Ha, yeah, even if all the males in a family were killed, single males would take the initiative to continue protecting the females. Unless not a single male was left in the tribe, or else the females would definitely be protected well.

  Gu Mengmeng inherited Elvis’s good eyesight so she could see exceptionally well in the light from the fire.

  Every familiar face was so calm that not a tint of sorrow could be seen.

  Like in the past, they were just instructing the males to eat this and that, to do this and that……

  Gu Mengmeng felt weird.

  She was prepared to see the sorrowful sides of the females tonight and then get tortured until her whole body was covered with cuts and bruises from all the guilt and no other injury could be added.

  She knew that it would definitely be very painful but she also knew that she deserved to undergo that torment.

  However, she did not imagine that these females were not the least sad, as if the males who died were strangers they had not seen before instead of their partners who went through life and death with them and took care of them painstakingly.

  This helped reduce Gu Mengmeng’s mental burden but she felt a surge of indescribable sadness.

  Sandy’s fireplace was the closest to Gu Mengmeng’s, just on the right side of the tree hole.

  Sandy sat back-facing Gu Mengmeng and did not turn her head from the start.

  Hede and his two brothers did not prepare to roast meat at Gu Mengmeng’s fireplace but instead, sat beside Sandy’s fireplace. Burke sat beside Kanwu, his gaze piercing through the fire and landed on Gu Mengmeng with a scorching temperature, as if he could not control his thoughts about her.

  Lea pinched the tree branch meant to roast meat and broke it into two parts with a crack. He smirked and said, “That pair of eyes really makes one feel uncomfortable……I really want to dig them out.”


  Gu Mengmeng shook her hands and sighed. “Forget it, the kids know that you guys don’t like him so they brought him to Sandy’s side to get some food. Just ignore him, let him see all he wants.”


  Lea took two deep breaths before walking to Gu Mengmeng, using his body to block Burke’s sight. He glared at Burke with a black face and an almost terrorizing gaze, saying, “How can I do that? What if he ruins you with his stare?”


  Gu Mengmeng did not know whether to cry or laugh. She patted Elvis’s shoulder and signaled him to turn around.

  Elvis heed by her instructions and completely turned his back against Sandy’s fireplace. Gu Mengmeng huddled into Elvis’s arms and snuggled up against his chest. Then, she lifted her face to smile at Lea which Lea return with a snort before continuing to roast the meat.
