Gu Mengmeng nodded with a laugh but Lea just snorted. “He has really found a good excuse to join Saint Nazaire. I can’t do anything to him now.”


  Gu Mengmeng shook Lea’s arm as she grinned. “Alright now, don’t pick a quarrel with a kid. Mmm?”


  Lea pinched Gu Mengmeng’s face as he gave in.

  “When do you intend to begin your trip back?” Gu Mengmeng asked.

  Fei Rui smiled. “If the Great Messenger agrees, I will head off now.”


  “So soon?” Gu Mengmeng was rather surprised. She thought he would at least wait till tomorrow as it was nearly nighttime now.

  Fei Rui nodded. “I am going back via the waterways anyway, so it doesn’t matter whether the sun is up. Moreover, Melinda is pregnant and I wish to hurry back as soon as possible to accompany her. After all, this is her first pregnancy.”


  “Melinda is pregnant?!” Gu Mengmeng had a major reaction. She jumped straight up, eyes wide open with shock. Her lips curled up involuntarily.

  Lea pinched Gu Mengmeng’s little nose. “Sandy will definitely be jealous if she sees your current expression.

  Wabei laughed. “If I didn’t know better, I would have thought the kid is yours.”


  “Get lost!” Gu Mengmeng shouted at Wabei before turning to Fei Rui again. “Alright, you better hurry back then. Help me ask after Melinda and give her my blessings.”


  “Yes, I will.” Fei Rui nodded before tilting his head and smiling. “So Great Messenger, please continue your meal. I will take my leave now.”


  Gu Mengmeng insisted on sending Fei Rui off. After all, they would not see each other again for one whole winter season.

  Elvis and Wabei accompanied Gu Mengmeng to the well to see Fei Rui off. Lea remained behind to watch over the pot.

  After seeing Fei Rui jump into the well, Gu Mengmeng leaned her head against Elvis’ shoulder. “Actually, he didn’t hope for Dora’s death. I saw it just now. He was quite sad when he heard about her demise.”


  Elvis hugged Gu Mengmeng tightly around the waist. “Females are an especially precious resource to every tribe. As weak as Fei Rui is, he is still the leader of his tribe. So Dora…… was someone he used to value.”


  Gu Mengmeng frowned after listening to Elvis’ words. She straightened herself and looked at him. “So before I came over, you also valued Sandy and Maya?”


  Elvis was momentarily taken aback, before he laughed out loud. “You must be joking. Before you came to Saint Nazaire, this tribe was just a meaningless way for me to pass time.”


  In other words, he didn’t even care much about the tribe, so how important could the females in the tribe be to him?”


  In the past, if not for Lea’s constant urging that for the sake of the tribe, he could not kill females—would that Nina have been able to survive for so long right under Gu Mengmeng’s nose? Elvis would have killed Nina a thousand times over.

  He already treated complete females as such, what more for half-beast females?

  Gu Mengmeng thought about it and agreed. Hence, she laughed as she leaned back onto Elvis’ shoulder. “Hubby, am I very petty? I feel so uncomfortable the moment I thought that you valued someone else before……”


  “I like your pettiness. You must maintain it, understand? Mmm?” Elvis kissed Gu Mengmeng’s cheek.

  Gu Mengmeng twisted her lips and gave a low laugh. She nodded and answered with a “mmm” sound.

  Wabei rolled his eyes. “Doing nothing all day and night. Only knowing how to flirt with each other. Tsk, the whole world stinks of love.”
