Chapter 208: Someone You Like

Elvis gave Gu Mengmeng a tug and pulled her back into the cave. Thinking for a moment, he hugged her in his arms and then turned around, using his back to face the entrance so as not to let the cold wind get to her.
“It’s snowing, this means that winter is coming. Females are generally more delicate and can’t leave the cave again or else they will get sick.”
Gu Mengmeng could not comply. What a joke, she could not leave the cave just because it was snowing? Then all the kids living in the northeast of China had to stay at home to avoid the winter for half a year every time?
Gu Mengmeng struggled to leave but Elvis shook his head to reject her firmly. Seeing how acting shamelessly was useless, Gu Mengmeng changed a policy and continued bluffing, “Over at our side, there’s a custom. You have to stroll under the snow with the person you like during the first snow because after walking for a while, the couple will get white heads (old age).”
Elvis did not understand her so he asked, “White heads?”
Gu Mengmeng nodded and said, “Yeah, it’s using the time of one snow to experience what it’s like to grow old together. It’s very romantic isn’t it?”
Elvis nodded his head blankly. He did not know what exactly the so-called romantic was.
Just like the story Gu Mengmeng told Sandy previously, that story with the so-called Yoo Sijin in it. Sandy never gets tired of hearing this story and later on, Maya was also so mesmerized till she lost her composure, pulling Gu Mengmeng to repeat it again and again. And even Nina who hated Gu Mengmeng the most would hide at a faraway place to eavesdrop a few sentences. But to males, that Yoo Sijin… was simply just trash.
He tried to stay patient and listen to her attentively before but he could never understand why the few females would scream excitedly all of a sudden, then hug one another together while laughing so… indecently?
He tried to raise questions before but they were all heartlessly given the cold shoulder by all the females. After that, he became smarter and did not ask any more questions related to romance because he knew that as long as females like it… or, he knew that as long as Xiaomeng likes it, he would accomplish it. That was enough.
Seeing Elvis nod his head, Gu Mengmeng shook his arm and asked, “How is it? Shall we experience it?”
Actually, Elvis’s interest was aroused because Gu Mengmeng said, “Strolling under the snow with the person you like”
Person you like… right?
Elvis savored these four words and the corners of his lips curved upwards uncontrollably, giving off a light smile.
Upon seeing Elvis’s expression loosen up, Gu Mengmeng continued to work hard to play up to him, “You’re smiling? Does that mean that you’ve agreed? Let’s go, let’s go, let’s just go and play for a while. I’ll wrap a few more beast-skins. I won’t fall sick if we just play for a while.”
Elvis could not stand Gu Mengmeng’s unceasing coaxing and pestering. In the end, he wrapped her up like a dumpling and tucked her in his arms, carrying her out of the cave.
Gu Mengmeng had never seen such a heavy snow before. When the snowflakes fell, she could even clearly see the direction of every fall. In the past, out of curiosity, she saw the real appearance of snowflakes under the microscope. That was the most beautiful thing she had ever seen before, the fineness and smoothness of every line formed an intriguing and wonderful picture.
The shape of snowflakes in the Beast World were similar, but they were a lot bigger overall. Thus, there was no need for a microscope for Gu Mengmeng to clearly see snow falling from the sparkling and crystal-clear sky, appearing magnificent and sumptuous, just like in paradise.
The speed of the falling snow was tremendously fast. From the start of the snow fall till now, it was at most only less than half an hour but Saint Nazaire already looked as if it was a building covered in cream from a birthday cake, as enchanting as in a fairytale.
