Chapter 151: You Want to Compete with Me Too?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lea felt a sense of enjoyment at Gu Mengmeng’s words.
Just for this short while, let him enjoy the t.i.tle of being the ‘only’. Even though it might not be forever, today must have been the happiest day of his entire life.
With hands around Gu Mengmeng’s shoulders, Lea looked at Maya as though looking at a rival in love, he asked, “What? You want to compete with me too?”
Maya was shocked, she leaned backwards and fell to the ground. She looked at Lea with horror and said, “No… No, Witch Doctor, I didn’t mean to…”
“That’s right.” Lea held his head high haughtily and walked past Maya with Gu Mengmeng in his arms. These few steps were more coquettish than ever.
The fish bones at Bode’s side were already stewed till milky white. Even Gu Mengmeng smelled the fragrance and was all ready to start eating, not to mention Sandy and Maya.
Gu Mengmeng hopped over to the pot and put in the sliced ginger, before adding in the fish meat after letting it boil for a while. After approximately five minutes, Gu Mengmeng clapped her hands and said, “It’s done!”
Reaching her hands out to grab, Gu Mengmeng then realized that this pathetic Beast World did not even have bowls and chopsticks. She was able to hold the tree branches to eat while barbecuing, but how was she going to drink the fish soup? Hold the stone pot and drink from it?
Gu Mengmeng glanced around. Lea was confused, but he followed Gu Mengmeng’s glances while asking, “What are you looking for?”
Gu Mengmeng described the shapes of bowl and chopsticks briefly. Lea nodded and seemed to be deep in his thoughts, before leaving a light kiss on her forehead and said, “I know where to find things similar to that, wait for me to go and get it.”
“Okay,” Gu Mengmeng nodded obediently. Boyfriends… are such capable beings.
Sandy and Maya crowded beside Gu Mengmeng and the three little heads surrounded the pot, sniffing and drooling over the fragrance. Just when they almost could not resist the temptation, Lea finally came back. But looking at what was on his hands, Gu Mengmeng turned into a stone on the spot as though she was struck by lightning.
Gu Mengmeng looked at Lea holding half of a tiger skull in his left hand, upside down. The eye area was shaved till flat, while the two furry ears were still dripping with water. It clearly showed that the thoughtful Lea had carefully washed the head after retrieving it. But, even a tiger skull dripping with water was scary, okay?
And look at his right hand, what were those things that suspiciously resembled the ribs of a tiger?
Gu Mengmeng took a few steps backwards instinctively, almost b.u.mping into the stone pot behind her. Lea rushed to her in a sprint, he grabbed Gu Mengmeng’s waist with the hand that was holding onto the bones of the tiger and she fell into his arms.
“You had promised not to make me worry,” Lea said solemnly.
Gu Mengmeng’s teeth were chattering in fear, she stuttered, “Erm… Erm well, well, can you put whatever is in your hands down…. before having a talk?”
Lea did not understand, but he followed what she said.
Gu Mengmeng looked at the half tiger skull and the ribs that were put aside by Lea and pulled him to somewhere further away before saying, “Did you actually want me to eat with that?”
Lea looked at the tiger skull and nodded his head genuinely.
Gu Mengmeng suddenly tripped and fell into Lea’s arms, she moved and murmured, “Can your interests be any less gory… That thing is too scary, I don’t dare to use it.”
Lea broke into a grin and comforted Gu Mengmeng by patting her head that was snuggling in his chest. “It is just food, don’t be scared.”
Gu Mengmeng had no tears left to cry, she could only let out a roar in her mind, “Can you please don’t use that loving expression and say such horrible things!”
