Chapter 1136: Gentlemen, This Is As Far As I Can Help You Guys.
Mandy didn’t disappoint Gu Mengmeng. Nothing happened the next morning but by noon, the atmosphere in Saint Nazaire was clearly different.
Because Elvis had already stocked enough food and no longer needed to go out to hunt, Gu Mengmeng let him accompany her as she made the rounds within the tribe. One, was to inspect the territory to see if there was still anything to be done. Two, was to check on Mandy’s results.
The 16 valued females were gathered by the little stream and looked as though they were having a discussion. They all stood up and warmly greeted Gu Mengmeng when they saw her approach.
Gu Mengmeng waved at Mandy, who came up to her with a wide grin.
“What were you talking about? Smiling so happily.” Gu Mengmeng asked even though she knew the answer. After all, with her current hearing abilities, she had already overheard their conversation from afar.
Mandy laughed. “Leanna accepted several new males yesterday night. She was just showing us her mating marks.”
Mmm, Gu Mengmeng had overheard this part earlier.
Leanna’s new partner was marked on her b.u.t.tocks…
To prevent Leanna from lifting her animal hide skirt and showing off her new mark, Gu Mengmeng interrupted. “During last year’s winter, three females in Sauder had given birth, while one is pregnant. You must all work harder so that I won’t lose face. Don’t let others say my 16 valued females look good on the outside but have nothing else to offer. Understand?”
“Don’t worry, Great Messenger. This winter, we have abundant food supplies and have you, our chief and the witch doctor holding the fort. We don’t need to worry about being attacked and will do our best to mate. Next year after winter, we will definitely not let you down. We will not let those foxes in Sauder outperform us.” Leanna a.s.sured.
Gu Mengmeng nodded in satisfaction. “Females are the most precious resource of a tribe, while babies are its biggest foundation. You must all work hard. The honor of Saint Nazaire depends upon you.”
The females all looked like they had had a boost of adrenaline. They stood before Gu Mengmeng with a stance that implied that they would not cease until they got pregnant.
Gu Mengmeng nodded with satisfaction as she thought to herself: Gentlemen, this is as far as I can help you.
As they talked and laughed, Maya also came by.
But before she even came close, the faces of the 16 valued females darkened.
Gu Mengmeng purposely looked at everyone in puzzlement. She then looked at Maya, but didn’t say anything.
Mandy exchanged glances with the 16 valued females. She then walked to Gu Mengmeng’s side and said in a coquettish manner, “Gu Mengmeng, I want to tell you a secret. Come back with me to my cave, alright?”
Gu Mengmeng naturally had to follow Mandy’s script, hence she nodded. “Alright.”
She then turned to the right. “Sorry ladies. Mandy and I have to leave first. I will come chat with you all again another day.”
“Great Messenger, take care. Great Messenger, goodbye…” The 16 valued females beamed as they waved at Gu Mengmeng. They saw her off with their eyes.
In reality, Gu Mengmeng followed Mandy as they circled around and quietly returned to the little stream. They hid behind a large tree some distance away, secretly peeking at the scene by the stream while keeping out of sight.
“Oi, half-beast female.” Leanna was the first to attack. She took one step forward to block off Maya. “We are resting by this stream. Get lost.”
Maya looked like she never expected to be chased off. She stood there in a daze, not knowing how to react.
