Beauty and the Beast: Wolf Hubby XOXO - Chapter 174
Chapter 174: Elvis, The Horrible Team Player
Elvis called Sandy over to accompany Gu Mengmeng while he himself returned back to the lake to help Gu Mengmeng extract some more salt crystals. But sometimes… sigh…
When Elvis stood in front of Gu Mengmeng with his head lowered, just like a child who committed a mistake, Gu Mengmeng felt deeply what a horrible team player was for the first time in her life.
However, when she saw Elvis’s dejected expression, Gu Mengmeng unexpectedly wanted to laugh so badly and ask him, “Elvis, are you actually a pig in wolf’s clothing?” ”
“Xiaomeng, don’t be angry. I know where to get the salt crystals you want. Although it’s a bit far, I can definitely bring a lot back for you.”
Gu Mengmeng shook her hands and said, “Tell me first, how much salt crystals at the lake were affected by the water?”
Elvis cleared his throat and gestured in the shape of a rice bowl with his hands. Then, he turned his head to aside, not having the courage to look into Gu Mengmeng’s eyes.
Gu Mengmeng smirked, this Elvis was really not skilled in lying. If he really only destroyed this much, was there a need to be so anxious?
Gu Mengmeng neither exposed nor replied to him and she just folded her hands while tilting her head upwards to stare at Elvis.
Elvis then silently expanded the range of his two hands, from a rice bowl to a washbasin. After that, he kept peeking at Gu Mengmeng with the corners of his eyes, resembling a Siberian husky who tore down the entire house.
Gu Mengmeng face-palmed, now, she did not suspect whether Siberian huskies were close relatives with wolves at all.
Gu Mengmeng patted Elvis’s shoulder and said, “You’ve succeeded in degrading the entire IQ level of the wolf tribe. Please avoid touching others from the wolf tribe in the future, I’m afraid they’ll want to bite you to death.”
Elvis did not understand Gu Mengmeng’s words. After all, wolves that could defeat him… never existed.
“But let’s just treat it as her showing care,” Elvis thought. He then chuckled and tried to sound her out, “You’re not angry… about the salt crystals?”
Gu Mengmeng shook her head and said, “I saw that the salt crystals there are enough to feed our entire tribe for two to three years. Those that you destroyed will not affect much. Moreover, even if there were not any salt crystals, I’ve a way to extract them from the lake. The salt crystals now are just lessening the trouble for me.”
Elvis heaved a sigh of relief and understood why Gu Mengmeng insisted on going there herself in the morning.
Elvis’s ears suddenly moved, and he heard someone arriving at the entrance of the cave. From the familiar scent, he did not need to turn back to know who was the person.
Looking at Gu Mengmeng, Elvis spoke, “You can play with Sandy first. I’ll head out for a while. Be back soon.”
Gu Mengmeng did not take it to heart. After all, Elvis was the tribe’s leader, he could not possibly revolve around her everyday right? Thus, she nodded her head to imply that she got it. Then, together with Sandy, she continued to spread the salt evenly on the fish which Bode had handled. After that, they tied each fish one by one using tree vines, with ten fish bundled up together before placing them aside. Because the fish were all plump, the two females did not have enough strength to lift them up.
When Elvis walked out of the cave, he saw that the person was indeed Lea.
“She’s a lot better today.” Elvis did not raise any question and instead, directly stated to him.
Lea kept a straight expression. Even though he was trying so hard to maintain his ordinary past smile, the sunken part below his eyes and his haggard face revealed his suffering.
His plan regarding the messenger of the Beast Deity was always correct but there was an extremely important prerequisite. That is he could never fall in love with the messenger of the Beast Deity wholeheartedly. However, this important prerequisite was shattered to bits by Gu Mengmeng’s ‘Daddy Lea’ every time when he was defenseless.
