Chapter 1332: Gu Mengmeng Gets Drunk
Gu Mengmeng already felt rather tipsy but Wabei remained alert. Gu Mengmeng rubbed her temples as she shook her head. “No more, I can’t drink anymore.”
Wabei hooked one arm around Gu Mengmeng’s neck. “You said you would get drunk with me… are you going back on your word?”
Gu Mengmeng stood up unsteadily and walked gingerly over to the wine barrel. She pried open the cap of the barrel before curling one finger at Wabei, who was sitting nearby. “Little s.h.i.+t, I am not a petty person. Don’t you know… since I said we wouldn’t stop until we are drunk, I will keep my word. Come over here… look at this. Did you see… it’s all wine. I am a rich tyc.o.o.n. Understand?”
Wabei went over to the wooden barrel and inhaled deeply. He looked at Gu Mengmeng with a face full of greedy desire. “This is… for me?”
Gu Mengmeng gave a “please go ahead” gesture. “Finish this, and there’s more over there… see, there are so many more… more than enough for you. Feel free to drink up!”
Wabei held Gu Mengmeng’s shoulders and knocked his head against her forehead. “Gu Mengmeng, you are a true friend! From today onwards, I will be your friend! Your problems are my problems. I will climb high mountains and dive deep seas for you. It will be as if it was you who gave birth to me…”
“Mmm…” Gu Mengmeng’s voice went off-pitched. She shook her head to right it. “My partners are a wolf and a fox. I can’t give birth to such a huge snake like you…”
Wabei also shook his head and turned her around by the shoulders. He pointed at the mark at the back of her neck. “No, you have a snake as your partner. Look, this mark here… this mark… it looks very familiar, I think I have seen it somewhere before…”
Gu Mengmeng rubbed the back of her neck with a look of realization. “Yes yes yes. There’s a snake mark on my neck… alright then, from now on, I was the one who gave birth to you!”
Lea and Elvis exchanged looks. They didn’t know whether to laugh or cry as Gu Mengmeng and Wabei spouted all that nonsense with such serious faces.
Wabei thought about it before saying, “So… I was conceived by you and Snakel… then Snakel’s mother and I became partners and I became Snakel’s stepfather… so Snakel and I, who is the father?”
Gu Mengmeng looked like she was also dragged into the confusion. She used the fingers of her two hands to try and calculate and figure it out. In the end, she smacked her forehead. “You are my father!”
Wabei nodded. “Alright, I am your father!”
Gu Mengmeng thumped the wine barrel. “Come, cheers to you, Daddy!”
Wabei nodded solemnly. “Alright. Daddy, let me drink to you!”
With that, he duck his head into the barrel and start slurping noisily.
Elvis elbowed Lea. “So, who is whose father now?”
Lea held his forehead. “I didn’t even pa.s.s elementary Chinese, I don’t really understand.”
Lea then grinned and went over to pull Gu Mengmeng into his arms. “He wouldn’t be able to finish this barrel anytime soon. Go and take a nap first.”
Gu Mengmeng stared at Lea, momentarily stunned. She then smacked Lea. “Evil demon! Give me back my master!”
Lea was shocked by the smack. He stared innocently at Elvis. “Her master is…”
Elvis thought about it before pulling at Auretin, who had been beaten black and blue by Lea. “Take him. Just accommodate her request.”
Lea nodded and dragged Auretin over to Gu Mengmeng. “Here, I return your master to you.”
Gu Mengmeng didn’t take hold of Auretin but just knelt down, staring dumbly at him. After a couple of seconds, she blubbered. “I heard that I can become immortal if I eat him… in this way, I can accompany my men forever… why don’t the three of us share him and eat him up?”
