Gu Mengmeng retracted her body and said, "So I can only wait, until thousand years later, when another person transmigrate by accident like me, and coincidentally she would be willing to help me to gather all seven treasures to save Snakel and Gregory?"
Samuel walked behind Wang Xiaoxin and held her hands up to kiss the back of her hand. Then he said, "The Messenger of the Beast Deity that you chose is not as intelligent as you."
Wang Xiaoxin shot him a look of rebuttal and withdrew her hand. She pinched his waist, then walked to Gu Mengmeng's side and said, "You really thought that you had transmigrated by accident and coincidentally gather all seven treasures?"
Gu Mengmeng was stunned and she frowned slightly. Subconsciously, she nodded her head.
She could not think of anything else but judging by Wang Xiaoxin's facial expression and words, she felt that it was not a coincidence after all.
"In this world, all the coincidences are arranged meticulously beforehand by others." Wang Xiaoxin lowered her head. With bitterness forming at the corner of her lips, she said, "Ever since you met Snakel, you had already been part of my roulette of destiny. From the Tear of the Beast Deity, to Kiss of the Ocean, and then to the other five treasures, did you not sense that it was as though there was a pair of invisible hands pushing you forward and forcing you to act in that way?"
Gu Mengmeng nodded. Each time when she had been searching for the seven treasures, she had usually not been willing.
The Tear of the Beast Deity was forcibly given to her because Snakel had to save her, whereas the Kiss of the Ocean was so that she could find an cure to Chixuan's poison...
Every time it seemed like she had a reason that was compelled by circumstances. Just like what Wang Xiaoxin had said, it was as though there was a pair of invisible hands behind her pushing her forward.
But...
"Snakel is your own son, how could you bear to do it?" Gu Mengmeng looked at Wang Xiaoxin with a look of disbelief. She really could not understand it. If she had clearly known what obtaining the Tear of the Beast Deity would do to Snakel, how could she, as a mother, bear to do it?
Wang Xiaoxin did not seemed surprised by her question as she smiled and responded, "Did you not know? In the Beast World, only your partner is your family. My son... Ha, he is your male partner, your family member, not mine. As a mother, I could only do my best to help him earn your favor, so I dragged you along to watch television with me, so that you could see how nice he treats you. Just now, I had even attempted to persuade you to give up on Elvis and Lea and stay with him in the modern world. Unfortunately... you did not choose him. The source of his suffering is that he was not good enough, at least not to the extent that you would love him unconditionally."
Gu Mengmeng felt as though her heart had been weighed down by a millstone that it felt extremely painful.
She shook her head and said, "No, you were wrong. It's not that Snakel is not good. He's good, very good."
"If he's that good, why did you not want him?" Wang Xiaoxin replied her with another question.
Gu Mengmeng was speechless. After staying silent for a long while, she said plainly, "I... will wait for him."
She had a long millenium for her to think about what feelings she had for Snakel.
Also, for Gregory, she could slowly think carefully about how she would face both of them after a millenium.
Wang Xiaoxin did not insist further and only nodded, then she said, "With this sentence of yours, my foolish son's feelings had not gone to waste after all."
Wang Xiaoxin held Gu Mengmeng's hands and patted the back of it, then said, "You have gathered the seven treasures and have become the new Beast Deity. And I finally can stop meddling in the affairs of the Beast World and can peacefully lead a carefree life with my partners. This time is my first time meeting you in my true form but it will also be our farewell. My story has completely reached the end and I will need you to continue it. as for me... I will no longer be part of it."
