Gu Mengmeng thought for a while and realized that Lea seemed to expressionless most of the time too, especially in front of outsiders where he had the same fake smile, looking like he was being polite but was actually distancing himself from others. When he was together with her, Lea had more expressions, but it was also seldom for him to express outward feelings. Most of the time, it was low key and faint, the type that will be ignored if one was not paying attention. Whether it was being happy or sad, he always expressed it with a smile.
Gu Mengmeng supported her chin with her hand, looked and Lea and asked, "Does your family has this rule being passed down that you have to 'maintain the fake smile resembling a prince'?"
Lea shook his head and answered, "No... At least my beast Father didn't teach me this."
Gu Mengmeng asked, "Then why did Cole and you looked like the wax sculptures in Madame Tussaud's? With the fake smile on regardless of anything that happened?"
Lea paused for a moment as though collecting his thoughts. He replied, "Maybe it was because he was too important to me, that I started imitating him unconsciously."
Gu Mengmeng thought, maybe... Eldest brother equivalent father approximately equals to a father's love as great as the mountain?
Lea's past was covered with too much sadness and Gu Mengmeng did not want to keep rubbing salt into his wounds, so she did not continue asking. Instead, she returned to the topic before and said, "Maybe he was just shocked because he did not expect me to really know the offering ceremony speech? This does not mean anything, I would also be shocked if someone started reciting the entire 'Oxford English Dictionary in front of me."
Lea shook his head, let out a meaningful smile and said, "Did you only see shock on his face?"
Gu Mengmeng nodded, recalled carefully and indeed she only remembered seeing some expressions of shock on his face only.
Lea hooked onto Gu Mengmeng's chin and examined every detail on her face like admiring a piece of art. He suddenly smiled and said, "Well no wonder, not everyone understood him like I do."
Lea turned his hand to brush against Gu Mengmeng's small face lightly with his fingertips and said with a seducing tone, "Do you want to know why Cole raised the challenge to Elvis so that he could be your beast pet, even though he clearly had his own females?"
Gu Mengmeng nodded, indicating a yes.
Lea's hand brushed from Gu Mengmeng's shoulders to her arms, stopping at her upper arm. Drawing some circles on it, Lea asked, "Do you want to know what he wants to do during the Offering Ceremony?"
Gu Mengmeng thought for a while, even though she knew how to do the Little Apple dance and its English lyrics, she would not be sure what other tricks did the previous ridiculous Messenger prepare. Since this ceremony was done yearly, Lea must know the details to it. There was no harm in rehearsing beforehand, in case of embarrassments on stage. So, Gu Mengmeng nodded his head again.
Lea's hand continued to move downwards, past her elbow, down her lower arm and he grabbed onto her wrist. He asked again, "Cole is the type to never give up if his goal was not met, he must have backup plans after Elvis rejected his challenge... Do you want to know how is he going to deal Elvis?"
Gu Mengmeng did not even give a second thought and nodded her head violently.
Lea moved his hand all the way till he met Gu Mengmeng's fingers. With fingers interlocked, he moved his body nearer until his face was at Gu Mengmeng's nose tip and he said with a densely ambiguous tone, "Call me Daddy Lea and I will tell you."
