“That……” Wabei wanted to ask but was interrupted by Gu Mengmeng.

  “Hurry up, I wish to return to Saint Nazaire as soon as possible. ” Gu Mengmeng was thinking that the chapter on Victor had finally come to an end after that huge fuss—it was best that Wabei didn’t bring it up again.

  How could Elvis and Lea not see through her actions?

  But that Victor was not worth their effort to pursue. It was enough for them to make their stance clear. It wouldn’t do to harass after Gu Mengmeng and make her feel distressed.

  Moreover, if not for that stupid tiger dredging up the past and inciting Elvis and Lea, they would not have bothered about him at all……

  After rushing along the entire day, they found a cave to rest for the night.

  This cave was previously dug by Elvis and gang the previous time they returned to Saint Nazaire from the stray beast camp. With Natalie and Peter there, and knowing Gu Mengmeng’s character, they had dug this cave in advance when mapping out their journey. This was to offer Gu Mengmeng a convenient place of rest during the return trip.

  The cave was well-concealed and still possessed Gu Mengmeng’s Beast King aura. No normal beast would dare to go near, not to mention the other ordinary wildlife.

  After dinner, a light rain fell.

  For Wabei, this type of weather made the outdoors more comfortable than the indoors, hence he wandered out. Gu Mengmeng didn’t bother about him.

  Lea raised a fire to keep the inside of the cave dry, so that Gu Mengmeng could have a comfortable night’s sleep.

  Since Gu Mengmeng’s nosebleed at Sauder, Lea had not raised a fire inside the cave for a long while. Now, Elvis and Lea kept Gu Mengmeng warm in bed by holding her one on each side.

  With the fire burning in the cave, the warm, toasty air made Gu Mengmeng feel drowsy. She leaned against Elvis and lowered her eyelids, as she started to fall asleep.

  Elvis’ eyes narrowed as he gazed upon her guileless sleeping profile.

  Those slightly parted lips were like an invitation, making Elvis feel like he was in a trance. Before he had time to think, his lips were upon hers.

  Half in dreamland, Gu Mengmeng didn’t resist against that familiar breath. She instinctively wrapped her arms around Elvis’ neck.

  This movement was undoubtedly a form of encouragement. He had just wanted to steal a kiss, but Elvis now felt a growing urge.

  He turned and laid on Gu Mengmeng’s body, with both hands cradling her head. He placed his weight on his knees, which were situated between her legs, pressing close but not crushing her.

  This kiss progressed from a light sweetness to a deep lingering. Because she was so familiar with Elvis, Gu Mengmeng could respond to his kiss by instinct and did not even open her eyes the entire time. It was as if she was moving through a dream.

  When her tongue answered his teasing, he became even more daring at this sign of permission.

  Already in a drowsy state by the warm fire, Gu Mengmeng was now even more in a daze by Elvis’ kiss. Her brain was slow to react but her body responded instinctively.

  The Fox Seductive Fragrance permeated the entire room, suffusing the surroundings with an alluring scent.

  “Xiao Meng, you are…… giving your permission, right? Mmm?” Elvis’s husky voice reverberated close to Gu Mengmeng’s ear, tugging at her heartstrings.

  Feeling ticklish, Gu Mengmeng answered with a soft, “Mmm……”. She wriggled to straighten herself, as if expressing displeasure at Elvis restraining her movement.

  But in Elvis’ eyes, her response and action was no doubt an affirmation……
