“Mandy?” Gu Mengmeng felt rather surprised. Those 16 valued females treated her like how fans worshiped their idols—they liked her a lot but kept a respectful distance. Gu Mengmeng always had to make the first move as they would never come find her on their own accord. It was as if they were afraid of bothering her.

  Mandy kept her hands behind her back with obvious unease. She approached Gu Mengmeng timidly. “This morning when Master Witch doctor went to find Ian, he said I could come play with you……”


  Play with you……

  Was she a kid?

  Gu Mengmeng chuckled as she gazed at Mandy, who looked like a child who had won a sweet. It was as if “playing with her” was a prize.

  Actually, her fox was probably just worried that she would be bored alone at home, and so had Mandy come over to keep her company?

  Gu Mengmeng passed a bowl over to Mandy. “Have you eaten breakfast?”


  Mandy shook her head as she blushed.

  “When Master Witch doctor came over, I was just about to eat. But he said he has prepared a lot of food for you this morning, so I can come over and eat with you. So…… mmm, although my Ralph has learned some cooking skills from Master Lea, his cooking is still not as good. So……”


  Mandy instinctively swallowed her saliva and gazed at the large pot of fragrant stewed meat in front of Gu Mengmeng. Her eyes filled with desire.

  Gu Mengmeng waved. “Perfect, come over and eat with me then.”


  “Mmm.” Mandy agreed quickly. She happily sat down diagonally opposite Gu Mengmeng.

  Gu Mengmeng chuckled. The scent left behind by Elvis and Lea on their seats announced that these belonged to the masters of the house and no one else was to sit on them.

  And the seat directly opposite Gu Mengmeng was usually occupied by Wabei, whose scent was also very domineering. In the entire Beast World, probably only Gu Mengmeng would dare to sit there.

  So comparatively, the stools diagonally opposite her were more free to use. Auretin, Barete, Ian, Fei Rui and other guests had sat on them before, and so Mandy automatically chose to sit there.

  Gu Mengmeng didn’t comment and just ladled a huge helping of meat into Mandy’s bowl. “Lea’s cooking is exceptionally good. Eat more.”


  “Mmm.” Mandy smiled sweetly. She received the bowl from Gu Mengmeng and took a bite, before sighing appreciatively. Gu Mengmeng could clearly see the words “bliss” on her face.

  Mandy spoke as she ate. “Great Messenger, when I was leaving, I heard Master Witch doctor asking Ian about some Love of the Sky…… and Ian looked reluctant to talk about it.”


  Gu Mengmeng paused and looked up at Mandy. “Have you and Ian become partners?”


  Mandy nodded with a bashful smile. “Mmm, we did it yesterday.”


  With that, Mandy turned and showed off the mark of a soaring Eagle-owl between her two shoulder blades. It looked like it was passing through a valley, its eyes sharp and indomitable. It was probably Ian at his most confident.

  Gu Mengmeng chuckled. “Hey, congratulations.”


  Mandy smiled sweetly. “I have to thank the Great Messenger for this. If not for your approval…… Ian would have definitely rejected me. On the day we became partners, Ian said he had actually liked me since a long time ago. But because he is the former chief of the Eagle-owl tribe, he cannot shirk his responsibilities. He had no choice but to suppress his own feelings. He said I must have suffered, and he even apologized to me.”


  Gu Mengmeng gave a low laugh. “He knows how to apologize? I have never known him to be soft-spoken when speaking against me.”
