novelOnce Friends
| ← Ch.0900 | Ch.0902 → |
Lea went to tackle Oakley's matter so Gu Mengmeng did not want to interfere anymore.
His situation was different from Sandy, Sandy lost her consciousness through Cole's hypnosis, it was against her will.
But Oakley.... . did not seem like he was controlled.
Gu Mengmeng did not know what difficulties he had but she gave him a chance to seek help from her. As long as he was willing to tell her the truth, she would help her, isn't it?
But...
He eventually chose to stand on her opposing side.
Not to deny, Oakley's determination made Gu Mengmeng bitterly disappointed.
They were once friends so Gu Mengmeng would not fold her hands and watch him die.
But, all that's left between them was just two empty words 'once friends'.
A familiar aroma wafted from downstairs. The blood in Gu Mengmeng's body was also circulating well after Elvis's rubbing so she felt extremely fresh.
After stretching, Elvis carried her and headed downstairs.
Lea lifted his head and upon seeing Gu Mengmeng, he grinned from ear to ear, his fluffy white large tail swaying behind him, showing his extremely good mood.
He scooped a bowl full of food and held a wooden spoon in one hand to feed Gu Mengmeng.
Gu Mengmeng was used to this kind of behavior, whenever she went to see the Beast Deity, Lea would be the one to feed her her first meal after waking up from a few days of sleep.
Only like that could he make sure that she was full, which would make him feel assured.
This...
seemed like some obsessive compulsive disorder.
But since it did not affect anything important, Gu Mengmeng did not intend to correct him either.
After eating her full, Gu Mengmeng then asked, "Where did Hede and his two brothers go? Where did they run wild to?"
Lea replied, "They went hunting with Burke. They said that they needed to prepare some food for Burke's tribesmen from his old tribe so that Burke need not work so hard when we leave."
"Isn't there two other females in his old tribe? It's been so long, have they not found new partners yet?" Gu Mengmeng questioned casually.
Lea laughed and explained, "Females from the snow-fox tribe won't mate with males of an outside tribe. If they returned to Saint Nazaire with us, there would still be some hope but here.... . ha, there's only the elderly, weak, sick and crippled left in the tribe, Burke has to shoulder all of these alone."
Gu Mengmeng did not say anything else and just nodded her head in silence.
It was good to let the three little ones help their Master Burke, after all, Gu Mengmeng owed him a lot previously.
Although Cole devised a plan and pulled him in, it was a fact that she made use of Burke before.
Or maybe, her distancing from Burke was the best help for him.
Or else, who knew whether he would become Cole's next target?
"Oh right, Elvis told me that you snatched back Sauder's ownership rights."
Lea washed a fruit and gave it to Gu Mengmeng. Seeing how her cheeks puffed up like a cute squirrel after biting a big piece, he smiled unknowingly and nodded, saying, "Yeah, after all, I'm the Ninth Highness of the snow fox tribe. That bunch of sly old foxes wants to maintain the tribe's dignity so they won't let me live under the control of a lynx. So, all I need to do for them to push me to the peak of authority was to not reject their suggestion. Ha.... it's the easiest to manipulate someone's heart."
Gu Mengmeng asked, "What...... suggestion did they give you?"
Lea's smile faltered and his gaze became cold as he said, "Working together with Cole, one black and one white, one in the open and one in the dark to become the two sharp knives in your hands for you to clear all obstructions in front of you and to aid you in becoming a greater presence of the previous messenger of the Beast Deity."
