Snake laughed and felt that Gu Mengmeng was right based on her memory of Bai Lan. Bai Lan’s tone…… most likely sounded like this. Even though the use of words might be slightly different, the content would most likely be similar.

  “Since you have already guessed it, why do you still have to discuss it with her?” Snake asked.

  Gu Mengmeng had been laughing softly with her head lowered the whole time and her eyes were slightly embarrassed as she replied, “I just needed Bai Lan to scold me, then I can be assured and tell myself that ‘What Bai Lan said was right, it is not my fault to ignore me. He is inhuman for not taking responsibility for me after I was born, causing me to live a life worse than a roadside beggar even though I have parents, so no matter what troubles he faces now, it’s his retribution/ I don’t need to pity him, much less blame myself for it, he deserves it!’”


  After Gu Mengmeng said that, she secretly turned to look at Snake and took a deep breath, saying, “Are you thinking that I am so mean? Did you regret finding such a girlfriend like me?”


  Snake shook his head and laughed, “There is no kindness or evil in my eyes, no right or wrong, just you. You are the standard for me to weigh right or wrong. If you seek kindness, I will give myself to buddha; if you seek evil, I will give myself to become a demon. Regardless of kindness or evil, I will be by your side.”


  “Thank you for saying that.” Gu Mengmeng thought for a moment and planted a kiss on Snake’s face. Then, she added, “Even though I know this is not real, I am still touched hearing it. With your consolation, I feel much better now.”


  “You fool.” Snake stroked Gu Mengmeng’s head and said, “Lying is to achieve a goal that cannot be reached by telling the truth, but I don’t need anything and I don’t need to lie.”


  Gu Mengmeng was amused by Snake and said, “Are you really in your second year of university? Not grade two? Saying that you don’t need anything…… Tsk, are you down with a shameless disorder?”


  In fact, he did not need anything.

  Except her.

  But the words were intended to make her laugh. So long as she laughed, he had achieved his goal and did not mind being ridiculed by her. So long as she was happy, he would be too.

  “Then what’s your future plans? Are you going to forgive him or take revenge on him? I can help you either way.” Snake asked.

  Gu Mengmeng shook her head and said, “I want to know why he had come looking for me suddenly in school but I don’t have the courage to do so. As for forgiving him, I can’t do it. Taking revenge on him…… there’s no need. I was really upset, but it has passed. But since I had endured it, why do I have to involve myself again? Anyway, I did not have a father for 10 over years, I am just hoping that he would never appear before me, so that I can continue being a fatherless child for my life.”


  “Alright.” Snake kissed her forehead and said, “He will never appear before you again, don’t worry.”


  Gu Mengmeng laughed and said, “I hope so.”


  After that day, Gu Mengmeng’s bastardly father had never appeared again.

  She did not know that her bastardly father, mistress, and their illegitimate children had been thrown to Zimbabwe by people instructed by Snake. That was a country with gross domestic product per capita of 0.1 USD, average life expectancy of males of 37, average life expectancy of females of 34, with 20.1% of them as HIV carriers.

  The next day, the sun rose as per usual. Snake and Gu Mengmeng entered school together, but they realized that they were being pointed at and mentioned by everyone around them. Strangely, they were not pointing at Gu Mengmeng, but…… Snake?!
