âWhat are you doing?! That scared me!â Gu Mengmeng hollered.
Wabei did not mind her chiding as he swayed his tail, clicking his tongue, saying, âWasnât the reason why you put in so much effort to search for that wrecked flower at the remote and desolate place just to activate the Beast King blood of your demure wolf so that he can surpass fifth-level? Youâve been clasping that flower in your hands for so many days, are you deciding to let it wilt before giving it to him?â
Upon being reminded by Wabei, Gu Mengmeng then recalled the reason for searching the Heart of the Desert was for Elvis to level up.
But she did not know why, every time she saw the flower, she felt disconsolate.
âI canât remember where this flower came from....is is really okay to use it? Could it be Coleâs trick?â As Gu Mengmeng said, she furrowed her brows slightly and continued, âIn the past, whenever we searched for the Seven Treasures, Cole would also interfere and do something disgusting. He did not appear this time round.....tsk, I feel that Iâm suffering from persecution delusion, I actually feel uneasy if he doesnât jump out like usual.â
Lea held his cheeks and said, âI find it strange too....he asked Joshua to lure you to find the Heart of the Desert but he did not appear at all....ha, this is not his usual style.â
Elvis held Gu Mengmengâs hand and suggested, âTo know whether itâs a trick, we just need to step on it.â
Gu Mengmeng widened her eyes at Elvis and said, âYou want to.....no way, what if something happens to you?â
âWill you allow something to happen to me?â Elvis asked while smiling.
âI wonât allow!â Gu Mengmeng answered firmly without hesitation.
Elvis nodded and said, âIâll always listen to Xiao Mengâs words. And I wonât do things you donât allow, right?â
âBut....â Gu Mengmeng looked at the flower in her hands and hesitated.
Elvis kissed Gu Mengmengâs forehead and said, âAs long as you donât allow me to die, even if I fall into hell, Iâll break the Bridge Over Troubled Waters and swim across the Lethe River. Moreover, youâve to believe my wild beast instinct, this flower....isnât dangerous.â
Gu Mengmeng looked at Lea but Lea smiled charmingly and said, âYeah, use it. If he really dies, I can move up the hierarchy and become the First Partner~â
Seeing how Lea was acting indecently, Gu Mengmeng put her heart at ease.
Nodding, she asked, âThen.....are you prepared?â
Elvis nodded and said, âI always tell you that I only have you in my heart but you always donât believe me....itâs the best timing now. Touch it, see whether my heart has other impurities other than you.â
Although it was not murder, Gu Mengmeng still shudder at the thought of cutting open Elvisâs chest with her bare hands to put the red spider lily into his heart.
What if she did not estimate well and kill Elvis?
âWhy donât we let Lea do it. Heâs the witch doctor, he has better grip over his hands. I didnât open up someone before, what if my hands shake and I become a widow....â
Elvis laughed and pulled Gu Mengmeng over, kissing her, saying, âFool, do you feel that I will allow anyone to cut open my chest other than you? If I resist out of instincts, Iâm afraid it wonât work, right? That will then kill me.â
Thinking about it, Elvisâs words made sense too.
Other than Gu Mengmeng, why would he trust others to stick their hand into his chest to touch his heart?
Gu Mengmeng took two deep breaths and said, âAlright, Iâll....Iâll do it.â
Lea pecked Gu Mengmengâs cheek and assured her, âItâs fine to shake your hands, even if Elvis die, you still have me, you wonât become a widow~â
