Gu Mengmeng looked at Auretin as if she was looking at an idiot and said, âBecause I have a husband already.â
Auretin probed further, âBut, even normal females have more than one partner. And moreover, youâre the messenger of the Beast Deity.â
Gu Mengmeng smiled helplessly and replied him, âSince you know that Iâm the messenger of the Beast Deity, Iâm naturally different from other females. I just need one partner.â
Auretin remained silent for a while before asking again, âWhy is it him? Wonât you feel scared or...disgusted?â
Gu Mengmeng frowned and asked Auretin while staring at him, âWhat do you mean?â
Auretin peered at Elvis before looking back at Gu Mengmeng, answering her, âDonât you know about his...family background?â
The expression on Gu Mengmengâs face was not very pleasant and she said with a clear repulsive tone, âI know, but what has my husbandâs family background got to do with you? What position are you in to make thoughtless comments of him in front of me?â
Auretin was taken aback and had the first expression Gu Mengmeng did not see before. He just merely widened his eyes a little, but it was enough to express his astonishment.
âYou know his family background but youâre still willing to accept him and youâre neither scared of him nor dislike him?â
Gu Mengmeng rolled up her sleeves and prepared herself to whack him. However, looking at all the prey stacked in front of him, Gu Mengmeng felt that she still ought to have some manners of a gentleman and that she should try to not take action if she could just reason. Thus, she lifted her chin up with her arms akimbo and said, âEveryone canât choose their family background, Iâm sure that your mother didnât discuss it with you either before you were born, right? No matter how freaking awesome your parents are, thatâs because your parents have the ability and this has nothing got to do with you. On the other hand, no matter how extremely wicked your parents are, thatâs because they lack morals. When they are forced to be executed, Iâm sure they wonât pull you along just because youâre their son.â
Auretinâs gaze was fixated on Gu Mengmengâs face the whole time. Listening to how she was filled with righteous indignation, his eyes started to have some focus even though he was clearly the one getting scolded. In his pupils, one could slowly see the reflection of her petite but powerful figure.
âRegarding whether youâve the right to find fault with my husband, the prerequisite is having something thatâs better than him and not because your parents are much more impressive or awesome than his, do you understand?â Gu Mengmeng spewed out all those words in one breath and after taking two deep breaths, she then continued, âOriginally, youâre a capable and talented male and I wanted to sincerely invite you to join Saint Nazaire to become a member of our tribe. But seems like....â
Auretin lifted his head up before he said with his eyes brimming with radiating vigor, âIâm willing to join Saint Nazaire without any additional terms.â
Gu Mengmeng was taken aback as she blinked her eyes, asking, âAre...you sure?â
Auretin nodded his head and replied, âIâm sure.â
Gu Mengmeng gave an awkward smile as she turned back to Elvis and said, âThat...why donât we take two deep breaths and forget everything that happened earlier.â
Elvis patted Gu Mengmengâs head and said, âIâll listen to you.â
Gu Mengmeng grinned from ear to ear as she extended her hand towards Auretin and said, âI welcome you to join Saint Nazaire.â
Auretin was shocked for a moment before he knelt down on the floor on one knee and placed his head below Gu Mengmengâs hand, giving off a....image of âMay the lord bless meâ.
Gu Mengmeng was so speechless until she choked and sighed. Why are the differences in our cultures as wide as the milky way? I just wanted to shake my hand with you to display my friendliness, big brother. What joke are you making by kneeling by my feet with that righteous expression? How am I supposed to react to your joke...
