Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lea grabbed Gu Mengmeng’s arm, but did not pull her close, just remaining in the position of being back to back.
He dared not turn back, afraid of seeing her rejection with his own eyes.
She dared not turn back, afraid of not being able to withstand his pleading.
Lea’s voice was a little dry, with a bit of coldness in his hoa.r.s.e voice, “I… I will go onto the Platform of the Deity’s Punishment.
Gu Mengmeng wanted to ask: Why are you going up the Platform of the Deity’s Punishment?
But the words stopped in her throat and turned into a faint ‘Oh’.
Lea used up all the force he had and slowly released his grip.
He let her go, but she hesitated.
Humans, are selfish and greedy after all.
Lea was right, she was indeed enjoying the care and fawning he had given her by her side.
Gu Mengmeng let out a bitter laugh as she told herself, since she could not give him what he wanted, she should let him go.
Taking her hand out, Gu Mengmeng left heartlessly.
After she had walked away in the distance, Lea could then turn around. He sat on the ground slowly with his back against the tree, he clutched his chest with great force and stared at the direction Gu Mengmeng had disappeared. The left hand that had pulled her wrist remained in the position when she took her hand out. He said, “I was only wrong for that single time in my entire life… But I could not even have the chance of being forgiven?”
Gu Mengmeng brought the kids to the river and was ready to jump down to wash her sons, but was stopped by Elvis.
‘Splash, splash’. With Elvis’s signal, Jialue and Kede jumped into the river.
Chixuan hesitated for a while, but followed them after being stared by Elvis. Only Kanwu was left standing by the river, full of mud but refused to go down.
Although he was feeling uncomfortable from the mud all over his body, he just did not want to listen to Elvis. The more he asked them to go down, the more he did not want to do it! Tsk, mom is around anyway, what can he do?!
Eh?!
There was a sharp pain on Kanwu’s b.u.t.t and the next second, he landed into the river in a free fall position.
Struggling to come up and fight with Elvis, Kede stopped Kanwu.
Kede used the language of wolf cubs and said, “Can’t you see that mommy is being upset right now? Beast Father is thinking of ways to cheer mommy up, don’t be a troublemaker.”
Kanwu then realized that their mother’s expression did not seem right.
Letting out a few howls which failed to catch mommy’s attention, Kanwu started was.h.i.+ng himself unwillingly in the water, thinking to himself, “I am not arguing with you because of my mom, if not, humph, why would I wash the mud on my body. I will just stand in front of mummy like this and see how you explain to her.”
Elvis knew what that boy was thinking, but could not be bothered with him. He thought to himself, “If not for your mom being upset now and I am busy comforting her for you to stir troubles, do you think I care whether you bathe or not?! Just be the dirtiest one and wait till my wife dislikes you, where I would throw you out immediately.”
The father and son despised each other and did not give a pleasant look, but for the woman that was important to the both of them, they reached an agreement to not look for one another’s trouble in this short while.
Elvis hugged Gu Mengmeng and made her sit in his arms. He held her hand gently and asked, “Are you really not planning on forgiving Lea?”
Gu Mengmeng shook her head and said, “It’s not him at fault, he does not need my forgiveness.”
Elvis asked, “Not him?”
Gu Mengmeng replied, “Yes, not him, but me.”
Elvis sighed and asked, “Because of you not being able to mate with him?”
Gu Mengmeng nodded.
Elvis said, “Xiao Meng, what are you actually concerned about? If it was because of me…”
Gu Mengmeng shook her head, bitterly smiled and replied, “Not because of you, it was me not being able to get over my mental barrier.”
