Gu Mengmeng was stunned for a moment before she burst out into laughter.
She should not be blamed for being a lovestruck fool but Gregory really had a serious face when he used a serious tone that was meant for reading âMind Clearing Spellâ to say such romantic lines. It was too special, too hilarious, and too mushy that it was extraordinary.
âYou said that there is a term called âreciprocate courtesyâ in your world?â Gregory did not care about Gu Mengmengâs foolish laughter. Regardless of what she did, she would always seem adorable in his eyes.
Gu Mengmeng nodded as a response to his question.
Gregory looked down and laughed softly, âI think this term is great, I like it.â
âHmm?â Gu Mengmeng looked at Gregory in confusion.
Gregory was a little reluctant but he still replied, âI gave you a gift you life, shouldnât you reciprocate and give me a gift to make my mood better?â
Gu Mengmeng unwrapped the beast skin and said, âYou have seen for yourself, I donât have anything on me, so I donât have a gift for you. But I will note it down and prepare a gift for you once we go down the mountain, how about that?â
Gregory shook his head, saying, âI want it now.â
âBut I donât have anything now.â Gu Mengmeng shrugged her shoulders helplessly.
âYou have.â Gregory ascertained.
Gu Mengmengâs lips jerked and her face became unpleasant.
They agreed on not becoming partners, Gregory must not have...
âWhat do you want? Say it first.â Gu Mengmeng had already been overthought things once, and did not want to make the same mistake again so she felt that it was better for her to clear things up.
Gregoryâs face was slightly red and his ears turned suspiciously pink.
âSince I already have a title, shouldnât you give me something... special...â
Gu Mengmeng looked at Gregoryâs embarrassed look and her heart skipped. She took a step back and tightened her grip around the beast skin and said with her guards up, âGregory, we have been interacting well these days but I think of you as my family... I cannot do that.â
Gregory looked at Gu Mengmengâs cautious expression and his eyes darkened. He lowered his head in disappointment and said, âAlright, since you are unwilling... then I will be like everyone else in the future, and always call you by Gu Mengmeng...â
âHold on.â Gu Mengmeng blinked and felt that she had overthought things again, so she asked, âWhat is âsomething specialâ that you want?â
âNickname.â Gregory said in an upset tone.
Gu Mengmeng held her forehead and she felt relieved and did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Right, how could she forget. The males in the Beast World like to give their female partners a nickname.
Lea called her Mengmeng, Elvis called her Xiao Meng, Snakel called her Twomeng and even Cole that psychopath called her Ah Gu.
It was a great recognition and satisfaction to a male when they have a unique nickname for their female. Auretin did not have it because he did not need it â he did not need anything other than braised meat.
Gu Mengmeng rubbed against Gregoryâs body and took the initiative to lean on his shoulders, as she smiled, âI thought you were referring to something else. Isnât it just a name? Alright, what do you want to call me?â
âI really can?â The hope that returned after he fell into despair made his eyes light up.
Gu Mengmeng nodded and said, âYou can, just give me a name, so long as itâs not too disgusting I can accept it.â
Gregory pursed his lips and said hesitantly, âBaby Meng...â
Gu Mengmeng looked at Gregory with widened eyes. Baby Meng? Wasnât that the name of a bun?â
