Gu Mengmeng turned Elvis around and around to look at him in detail and after confirming that he did not have any abnormality other than the wound on his back, she then heaved a sigh of relief. Pouncing back into Elvisâs arms, she hugged onto his waist and said, âYou scared me to death that day. Youâre always so healthy, why did you suddenly faint? I thought that I was going to become a widow just after getting married.â
As Gu Mengmeng whined, she punched Elvisâs chest and added, âDonât scare me like this in the future, get it?â
Elvis let her do whatever she wanted to and felt that it was happiness even though he was being hit by her. He nodded his head earnestly and answered, âAlright, I wonât scare you in the future again.â
Gu Mengmeng hugged onto Elvis while breathing in two deep breaths before suddenly recalling that Lea was still outside. She cleared her throat awkwardly and said, âThat... I allowed Lea to stay in our cave.â
Elvis did not have the chance to open his mouth yet when Gu Mengmeng sat up straight, like a spring that was being pressed onto, and looked straight into Elvisâs eyes. She continued to explain in a flurry, âDonât misunderstand, itâs not what youâre thinking of.â
Elvis was slightly taken aback as he chuckled while asking, âWhat is it that Iâm thinking of?â
Gu Mengmeng choked as she pursed her lips, saying, âNo matter what youâre thinking of, itâs not what youâre thinking of.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âOh,â Elvis nodded his head while smiling, implying that he got it.
Gu Mengmeng held Elvisâs hand and said seriously, âThat day, you were unconscious and covered in blood. I was scared to my wits and was so worried that you would not wake up but I was also scared that those strange fellows would return so I was extremely helpless. And at that time, Lea appeared at the entrance. He promised that he would treat you on the condition of staying in our cave until next spring. Since I donât have any reason to ask him to bear the risk while running to and fro in the wind and snow for us, I agreed. Itâs just like that, really, nothing else.â
âI always believe Xiao Mengâs words.â Elvis held Gu Mengmengâs hand and patted her uneasy face gently.
She did not know how guilty she looked right now. Although she was clearly just stating facts, she was unable to appear natural and right.
Gu Mengmeng asked in utmost cautiousness, âYouâre... not angry?â
Elvis asked her back instead, âWhy should I get angry?â
Gu Mengmeng fiddled with her fingers and replied, âBecause... I acted on my own and let Lea enter our cave.â
Elvis felt a warmth sensation in his heart and smiled, âWe have already mated so strictly speaking, this cave is yours. You can let anyone enter or get out of the cave as you wish. Nobody has the right to doubt your decision, even if itâs me.â
Gu Mengmeng tilted her head to ask, âWho says you canât? We are spending our life together so we have to discuss matters. If you donât feel comfortable, you can just say it out loud. Letting others stay in our home is my fault. If itâs me, Iâll definitely feel uncomfortable. I can understand if youâre angry but can you donât stay angry for too long? Itâs really a special case then...â
Elvis held onto Gu Mengmengâs shoulders and stared right into her eyes, saying, âIâm not angry, Iâm really not.â
This time, Gu Mengmeng was the one who was confused. She tilted her head and asked Elvis, âI let my ex-boyfriend stay at our home and itâs when youâre still unconscious... youâre not even angry at this? Are you not afraid that heâs the next-door Uncle Wang (cuckold)?â
âNext-door... Uncle Wang?â Elvis did not understand. He was certainly sure that there was only his cave in his territory, next door... sounds like a cave used to put dried preserved fish, so another name for dried preserved fish is next-door Uncle Wang? But why should he be afraid of it? And even if Lea was preserved, he was also a preserved fox, why did he become a dried preserved fish? Donât understand... donât understand...
