Gu Mengmeng understood Elvis’ line of thought. “Is Cole intending for Burke to kidnap me?”


  Lea didn’t appear to mind and looked up at Gu Mengmeng. “I don’t think so, Burke and you…… it’s just like those playthings which Cole brought back for me from outside the tribe. Just an expression of goodwill.”


  Elvis gazed afar. “Or it might be a reenactment.”


  Gu Mengmeng was stunned for half a second before sitting up. “You are saying…… they want to kidnap Kanwu and the rest to hold them over me?!”


  Lea patted Gu Mengmeng’s shoulder soothingly. “If that’s the case, Burke would not be hanging around so closely to Kanwu and the rest. Cole is obviously using Burke as a bait. As long as we keep up this vigilance against him, what chance does he have?”


  Gu Mengmeng was still worried. Her children had been far too close to Burke in recent days. If Burke wished to take them away, his chances of success were very high.

  Elvis held his large hand over Gu Mengmeng’s head. His gaze was profound and calm. “Don’t worry, Ian and his men are watching over them. I will never let those wolf pups draw you into danger again.”


  Gu Mengmeng was finally somewhat reassured. She wandered over to the edge of the tree hole. “Kanwu and the rest have been too close to Burke these days. I just don’t like it…… why don’t you teach them personally? You are so powerful. You would definitely be a better teacher than Burke.”


  Elvis got down on one knee and kissed Gu Mengmeng’s forehead while holding her little hand. “You are sure that you want me to go?”


  Gu Mengmeng looked inquiringly at Elvis. “What’s the matter?”


  Elvis chuckled. “Nothing. I was just worried you couldn’t bear it.”


  Gu Mengmeng felt a faint sense of foreboding. She tugged at Elvis’s arm. “Tell me, how are you going to train my sons?”


  Elvis thought for a moment. “Chixuan is still in a coma and cannot train. I will leave him at home for the time being as a toy for you play.”


  Gu Mengmeng felt his words were rather strange, but failed to see exactly how.

  Nevertheless, Chixuan was really unable to train in his current condition. Even a rabbit could bite him to death now.

  Elvis continued. “Jialue and Lea are the same, with intelligence as their core ability, and physical prowess as an auxiliary skill. Just pass that kid over to Lea.”


  Thinking of Jialue, Lea put his hand to his cheek. “I have always been the one to cause trouble for others. But that young punk is a pain in the neck, completely undisciplined. Still acting cute in front of me when caught in the act…… and you know that I am helpless before that pair of adorable eyes. I will be eaten alive by that kid…… there was once I blindfolded him with a piece of animal skin. Guess what happened next?”


  Gu Mengmeng snorted in laughter as she was present then.

  That brat Jialue used his paws to pull down one side of the blindfold and nibbled on one finger as he asked Lea, “Lea daddy, are we playing bondage games?”


  Lea had been completely frazzled. Jialue’s tone and expression was a perfect imitation of Gu Mengmeng. If Gu Mengmeng had been the one who uttered those words, Lea would have immediately pounced forth to bind her up, strip her naked and have his way with her. But it was Gu Mengmeng’s own son who had spoken those words.

  As a result, Lea had immediately carried Gu Mengmeng off to his room and spent half a day inside before his anger was finally vented.
