Chapter 1133 - Gu Lectures On Swindling Again

“Mmm?” Mandy looked at Gu Mengmeng with a perplexed expression.

Gu Mengmeng said, “I want all the females to distance themselves from her and not play with her.”

Mandy nodded as realization dawned. She smiled. “Ah, I understand now that you put it like that.”

Without asking why, Mandy nodded and said, “No problem. Leave this matter to me. By tomorrow evening, I guarantee that not one of the 16 valued females will pay any attention to her again.”

Gu Mengmeng smiled approvingly, before adding. “But you cannot let anyone know I was the one who asked you to do this.”

Mandy nodded. “No problem.”

Gu Mengmeng ladled another bowl of meat for Mandy. “Have a little more.”

“Mmm.” Mandy accepted and ate several more bowls.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Gu Mengmeng didn’t have a big appetite and had already eaten some roasted meat at the bonfire. Hence this pot of stewed meat mostly went into Mandy’s tummy.

Having nearly finished the entire pot, Mandy finally licked her lips in satisfaction and bade Gu Mengmeng goodbye. She then followed Ian back to her own cave.

Lea exchanged a grin with Gu Mengmeng as he cleared the table. “Looks like the two of us are on the same wavelength.”

Gu Mengmeng chuckled as she snuggled in Elvis’ arms. “The Beast World holds females in the highest regard. A partnered male will treat his own female like a goddess. As long as the 16 valued females alienate Maya, she would find it difficult to maneuver within Saint Nazaire. After all, half the males in Saint Nazaire already belong to the 16 valued females, while the other half... are wooing them.”

“Without anyone to cooperate with her, Maya will not be able to get up to her tricks.” Lea approved of Gu Mengmeng’s line of thought.

Gu Mengmeng nodded. “Previously, I never felt there was anything wrong with Maya, and so didn’t think so. But now that I think of it, Nina was rather maligned. Her bossy manner—I reckon at least 80% was instigated by Maya? And I still thought that Maya was the one being bullied by Nina, and that Maya was just bearing it in silence. I never imagined it was actually the other way round.”

Lea rubbed his own nose, feeling uncharacteristically sheepish.

After all, he was the very person who had tacitly condoned Maya’s instigation of Nina...

Elvis saw that Lea was feeling uncomfortable and so cut in. “You really think Mandy can influence those females? They are such a chaotic bunch with so much infighting amongst themselves. They don’t look like they will comply.”

Gu Mengmeng laughed. “Give them a common enemy and they will naturally band together.”

Elvis didn’t really understand Gu Mengmeng’s meaning so she explained. “People always possess a crowd mentality—this means that a thing becomes a matter-of-course the moment everyone else is doing it. Even if you feel something is not quite right, you will still go along with it, otherwise you will become the odd one out and no one likes to be different. In the end, you might even carry out the act to an even more extreme level just to prove you are not the odd duck.”

Elvis was still uncomprehending, but Lea’s smile widened. He even stopped his washing and sat beside Gu Mengmeng. He listened attentively to Gu Mengmeng’s analysis.

It felt like Gu Mengmeng was once again conducting her lecture on how to swindle people.

Mmm, this was also a common type of human behavior. The desire to gain the approval of others and be adored. Especially by they people they themselves liked.
