Gu Mengmeng wanted to turn him down. She felt that such a position was too suggestive.

  Besides Lea and Elvis, she could not accept being hugged this way by others. Really, it felt extremely uncomfortable.

  Gregory could tell her discomfort and did not force her. He only said calmly, “The temperature here is much lower than on ground. You will freeze if you do not cover yourself with beast skin. Elvis and Lea are not around. Even though I am just a guardian beast, I also have the duty to protect and take care of you. It’s just feeding you some fruits, you don’t have to be so repelled, I know my place.”


  In fact, Gu Mengmeng did not think that much as all her actions were reflexive. After Gregory said that, she felt a little embarrassed.

  She tarnished his reputation and ruined his life. Originally, she wanted to treat him better, but she forgot that in the Beast World, it was not kindness to ‘not cause trouble to others’.

  A male beast would only feel secure if she was being pretentious, unreasonable, difficult to handle most of the time and giving them orders like a servant. Only then would they feel blissful and smile while saying, “Look at that, how reliant is my female partner on me, she gave me so many chances to prove that I love her……”


  Sighing, Gu Mengmeng opened her mouth to receive the Xue Ling fruit in Gregory’s hands, then she smiled an uttered a word of ‘thanks’.

  Gregory smiled faintly and sighed, before muttering to himself, “Will you say thanks to Lea and Elvis?”


  Gu Mengmeng thought about it then shook her head and replied, “In the past I would, but after getting used to it…… Come to think about it, I have never said thanks to them for a long time.”


  This answer made Gregory feel more at ease.

  She was thanking him not because she was distancing from him, but because she was not used to him caring for her.

  If he had a long time and more chances to take care of her, she would probably accept his gestures naturally like she would from Lea and Elvis, right?

  “Have another one.” As he said that, Gregory plucked another Xue Ling fruit and placed it at her mouth. Seeing her swallow it, he then asked, “Do you feel much better after eating something?”


  Gu Mengmeng nodded and leaned on Gregory’s chest lazily, saying, “I just don’t have energy. But these Xue Ling fruits are really refreshing. After eating them, I don’t feel so disgusted and I feel more comfortable.”


  Gregory laughed because of what she had said and replied, “If you like it, I can collect fresh ones for you every day. But you cannot eat too much at one go, otherwise it will be too cool and your stomach will be upset.”


  Gu Mengmeng wanted to say that it was too much of a trouble but she decided to take it back. If collecting fruits for her to eat in the snowstorm could make him happy, then she should let him be.

  After all, faced with Gregory who was only ten years old, she really could not come up with any of the unreasonable tricks that she used on Elvis and Lea.

  She avoided Sandy but not Gregory, and eventually still became a strange aunt. Sigh, such miserable fate she has.

  “I went out to take a look just now. The wind surrounding Love of the Sky has weakened and I predict that the winds would stop and snow would melt after seven days. But you only have half day, after taking it, you have to immediately leave Motou Mountains, you understand?”


  Gu Mengmeng turned back to look at Gregory and asked in confusion, “Why do I have to leave immediately?”


  Gregory lowered his head and laughed softly, “Love of the Sky is the treasure to stabilise the Motou Mountains. No one knows what Motou Mountains would become after losing Love of the Sky for 1000 years. In case of anything, you should leave after taking it, and don’t return no matter what, you got it?”
