âShe is the most beautiful female in the whole world. I swear that I will cherish her and protect her and give her the best of everything. But... she treated me so well when I was injured. Why is she spurning me after I recovered? I never did anything to hurt her. Why does she fear me? Even if you are able to see my true feelings towards her with just one glance. Why does she not understand? I will never harm her...â
Carter felt very hopeless and frustrated. He slumped over and sighed without another word.
Gu Mengmeng laughed. âYou snatched the Mermaid Tribeâs territory and caused her people to be homeless. You humiliated her brother several times and forced him to travel all the way to Saint Nazaire to seek my help. Do you think such actions are not hurtful?â
Carter looked up with a lost expression. âI took over the Mermaid Tribeâs territory as she didnât like living in the Giant Fish Tribeâs area. She said she missed home so I snatched it over for her.â
Gu Mengmeng couldnât contain her laughter. She had truly seen it all now.
His way of thinking was really bizarre and twisted.
How did he come up with such a solution? Gu Mengmeng really felt that nothing could be more different than the thought processes of the two genders. How in the world did such a vast difference come about?
âAnd that Fei Rui. He was the one who kept challenging me. I never sought to give him trouble... itâs not my fault that he couldnât beat me...â
Gu Mengmeng propped her cheek on her hand. âYoung man, your way of thinking is what we call âdestined for a solitary lifeâ, understand?
Carter shook his head in all honesty.
Gu Mengmeng explained kindly. âIt means you are doomed to be alone forever.â
Anxiety crept over Carter. âWhy? What... what did I do wrong?â
Gu Mengmeng just felt like laughing. This totally felt like a student asking his teacher after handing over a blank script âTeacher, where do you think I went wrong? In what areas can I improve?â The teacherâs only possible answer would be: You have messed up so badly, you didnât even write your own name!
Gu Mengmeng patted Leaâs chest. âYou tell him where did he go wrong. I am afraid I might lose control of myself and nag him to death.â
Lea suddenly felt that this Carter wasnât that hateful. After all... he was blind. A handicapped fish was really quite pitiful.
Huh? Why did Lea say that Carter was blind?
Of course it was because Carter said that Melinda was the most beautiful female in the world.
You must be kidding me. The most beautiful female in the world was Gu Mengmeng, alright? He must be blind if he couldnât even see that?
Faced with a handicapped person, Lea would still show some kindness.
After all, witch doctors were sort of like nurses. Taking care of the infirm was his duty.
But on the criteria that the aforementioned sick person didnât covet his Mengmeng.
Clearing his throat, Lea inserted his tail into Gu Mengmengâs arms for her to play. Narrowing his eyes, Lea said, âWith your intelligence, I guess that framing her for stealing your treasure was not your own idea? Tell me, who was the mastermind behind that.â
Carter was nodded rather honestly. âThe idea was Doraâs. She said that as long as I kept Melinda by my side, she will eventually discover how good I am to her. I am to wait until she likes me back before telling her the truth. By then, even if she gets angry, she can hit or punish me however she likesâbut after her anger has subsided, she will remain by my side.â
