Gu Mengmeng lowered her head, blushed and whispered in soft words, âThere are poisons in me... Deadly ones...â
âI know.â With that, Elvis kissed down her neck, brushing past Gu Mengmengâs collarbone with the tip of his tongue. He said with a hoarse voice, âBut I am willing to...â
Gu Mengmeng put both of her hands on Elvisâs shoulders as her body shook uncontrollably. She bit her lower lips and said with tears forming in her eyes, âBut I am not.â
Elvis paused for a moment and he stretched his back up straight. With one hand lightly hooking onto Gu Mengmengâs chin, he stared at her teary face and said, âAre you... looking down on me?â
Gu Mengmeng shook her head and dared not to look at Elvis in the eyes. She said softly, âI know that you are injured and it hurts to even stand or sit down, right? But, if you donât want to admit... I wonât ask. So, donât ever cover up your wounds like this, I will feel heartache.â
Elvis felt sharp pains in his heart by Gu Mengmengâs words.
The Gu Mengmeng now was not someone that he could hide his weaknesses by pretending nothing had happened anymore?
She had known everything, but held it in, forcing out smiles and laughters and playing it along with them in exchange for their heartsâ content...
Elvis hugged Gu Mengmeng into his arms and said in her ears, âI really do hate that snake, whom made your sense so sharp... but did not give you the intelligence to match up to it.â
Gu Mengmeng was stunned for a moment, she blinked her eyes and felt that the worries she had was disrupted by the second half of Elvisâs sentence.
Elvis took a deep breath as he held onto Gu Mengmengâs shoulders. His sapphire blue eyes stared straight into her eyes and said, âDid you not understand? I said that... I am willing to.â
Gu Mengmeng felt that her brain had malfunctioned and she was having difficulty breathing. She stared back at Elvis without moving, as though her soul had been attracted to that pair of eyes.
Elvisâs smile was gentle and filled with fondness. He rubbed Gu Mengmengâs small head and said, âBeing âdomestically abusedâ by you to death... would probably be the happiest way of dying in this entire world. If it is you, I will accept anything. Even death itself.â
Gu Mengmeng felt like her heart was being grabbed forcefully. There were no roarings and every word Elvis said was peaceful and gentle, but it was like a tender hand that held her heart steadily. If he just closed his fingers now, she felt that her sensitive heart might explode.
Gu Mengmeng raised her hand to hug Elvis back, she buried her small face into Elvisâs neck and shed the first tear ever since she left the Snake King valley.
âHubby... What can I do... I am so scared... I donât know what had happened, I couldnât control my emotions at that time... What if... What if... Sobs sobs... What if one day, I murder all of you accidentally...â
Gu Mengmeng was crying, but Elvis was laughing.
Finally, the enclosed door that Snake had built with a thousand years of loneliness had been pushed opened by a small margin.
Her Gu Mengmeng was escaping from that small gap.
As long as he could hold her hand, whether it was pulling her out from there or accompanying her in, it did not matter anymore.
âIdiot.â Elvis kissed on Gu Mengmengâs tears and his voice was filled with his whole life of emotions, while his eyes were as gentle as the infatuation from the deepest part of the ocean. He patted her back softly and said, âI will never die. Remember? I will never do anything that will make you sad. So, try to believe in me and leave everything that makes you unhappy to me, alright?â
