Beauty and the Beast: Wolf Hubby XOXO - Chapter 736

Chapter 736: Could You Let Me Become One Of Your Partners?

Fei Rui timidly reached out one tiny hand. He was obviously very scared but struggled to trust in Gu Mengmeng. His demeanor nearly melted Gu Mengmeng’s heart.

Without much effort, she pulled Fei Rui out of the well. He could have climbed out himself but was just waiting for permission.

“Thank you.” Fei Rui was very obedient. His smile revealed an eye tooth and he looked just like your neighbor’s little brother.

His hands were cool and felt very much like Snakel. Gu Mengmeng’s eyes dimmed a little. She knew Snakel was doing well but she could not help feeling a sense of longing.

Gu Mengmeng brought Fei Rui back to her own cave. Worried about leaving Gu Mengmeng alone with this stranger, Sandy also tagged along.

Fei Rui expressed curiosity over everything. He kept gazing about and was full of questions. He wanted to reach out and touch all sorts of things, but was unwilling to let go of that first touch of warmth. In this manner, he followed Gu Mengmeng into the cave and sat compliantly to the side with both hands on his knees. His bright eyes tracked Gu Mengmeng steadily and he behaved like a good student listening attentively to his teacher.

“Why were you in the well?” Gu Mengmeng spoke in a gentle voice, as if she was a teacher addressing her favorite student.

Fei Rui pouted as he replied bashfully. “I wanted to travel along that little river, but it had dried up. So I had no choice but to swim over along the underground stream. I noticed a strange opening and came up through there, but was attacked… I counterattacked and that opening was subsequently sealed…”

Hearing Fei Rui’s sob story, Gu Mengmeng just felt like hugging him and buying him a sweet to comfort him.

“So you have come to find me?” Gu Mengmeng asked again.

Fei Rui nodded. Under Gu Mengmeng’s encouraging gaze, he spoke again. “I know where the Kiss of the Ocean is. Can I exchange it for a wish?”

Kiss of the Ocean…

Gu Mengmeng’s heart skipped a beat.

Her heart was in turmoil. On one hand, she wished to use those five treasures to exchange for Chixuan. On the other hand, she felt that handing over those five treasures to Cole was an extremely dangerous matter. She subconsciously hoped that she would never find them.

But now that one had found its way here, perhaps it was heaven’s will.

Gu Mengmeng calmed herself. “Yeah, of course you can. Tell me about your wish.”

Fei Rui squeezed his fingers and took several deep breaths. He then raised his head and looked at Gu Mengmeng with resolution. “Could you let me become one of your partners?”

Pfft…

Gu Mengmeng nearly choked to death on her own saliva.

She looked at Fei Rui in exasperation. “Do you like me?”

Fei Rui lowered his head and thought for a moment. He shook it. “I don’t know what is like. But I need your power to protect my sister.”

Before Gu Mengmeng could question him further, two shadows descended.

Gu Mengmeng came face to face with a wide, sturdy chest. She looked up into a pair of clear, blue eyes.

“If you wish to become Xiao Meng’s partner, you must challenge her current partners. Do you wish to challenge Lea or me?” Elvis’ face was calm, without any trace of anger or rage. Nonetheless, it held a sharp malevolence which made one break out in a cold sweat.

Lea waved his huge tail and gave an overly “gentle” smile at Fei Rui. “Why don’t you challenge me. Let’s settle both new and old scores once and for all.”
