Chapter 1082: Young Master Chixuan
Gu Mengmeng exuded a dark and ominous aura. A lack of of sleep made her deeply unhappy.
As she stepped out of the cave, Elvis used his hands to gently shield her eyes from the the piercing sunlight, so that she could slowly get used to the daylight.
Since inheriting Snakel’s abilities, eyesight was no longer the only way which Gu Mengmeng sensed the world. Every cell in her could inform on what was happening in the vicinity even without her actually seeing it.
“Who is it? What do you want?”
Despite not being able to see, she accurately faced the unwelcome guest at her door. Speaking through clenched jaws, Gu Mengmeng’s voice was soft but held such a chilly undertone that it could freeze someone even under this blazing sun.
“Great… Great Messenger… we… we…” The men was scared stiff by Gu Mengmeng’s annoyance at being woken. They have been stray beasts for so many years and had engaged in so many savage and bloody fights, coming face to face with imminent death countless times—but they have never been as frightened as they were now.
So it was true that a bad guy should stick to his character. It was much easier snatching things than sending gifts. It was too scary trying to be a good guy.
Elvis’ fingers gradually parted, allowing the sunlight to slowly shine into Gu Mengmeng’s eyes.
Gu Mengmeng could see a large stone basin filled with grapes behind those stray beasts.
Raising her brows, Gu Mengmeng suddenly felt much placated. Her tone softened, but she still lazily leaned her head against Elvis’ shoulder. She glanced at the beasts who made the delivery. “For me? Who asked you to send this?”
“Lord Cole asked us to deliver… deliver this…” The stray beast felt rather aggrieved. He had not behaved so timidly even when battling Elvis, but he couldn’t even speak properly when faced with Gu Mengmeng.
“Tsk.” She had already guessed it but the confirmation still irked her. Rolling her eyes, she said, “Take it away. I don’t want anything from Cole.”
With that, Gu Mengmeng turned her head and sprawled against Elvis’ shoulder, indicating that she wished to return to her cave to continue sleeping.
The stray beast immediately piped up, “But these fruit were personally picked by the young master. Lord Cole is just helping the young master deliver this. Great Messenger, please don’t reject the young master’s gesture of filial piety.”
Gu Mengmeng paused and turned to look at the stray beast.
Ha, he had been stammering the entire time, but could recite this speech so fluently. Someone probably taught him to say that?
“Young master?” Gu Mengmeng didn’t care who taught him to say those words. Anyway, she knew the answer even without asking, and she didn’t wish to hear that name again.
The stray beast noticed that Gu Mengmeng indeed halted after hearing the words which Cole taught him to say. Even her reaction was exactly as predicted by Cole. He felt a bit more settled at this and stopped stammering. Nodding his head, he replied, “Yes, young master Chixuan.”
Gu Mengmeng frowned, feeling extremely unhappy.
She did not want Chixuan to have anything to do with Cole. But Chixuan had been by Cole’s side for so long that even the stray beasts were calling him young master.
What young master?! Chixuan wasn’t even Cole’s son!
But it was meaningless arguing with these underlings. Gu Mengmeng clenched her fists. “Got it. Leave the fruit and get lost.”
“Yes.” The stray beasts nodded before taking their leave.
