Chapter 1607: Treasure The Person Before You
Fei Rui’s death brought a huge blow to Gu Mengmeng.
She felt very uncomfortable but she could not blame anyone.
She could not vent the frustration suppressed within her and remained depressed every day.
At this time, she would be reminded of Cole.
After Cole died, Gu Mengmeng thought a lot. If she did not think about liking or hatred towards him, she realized that he treated her quite well.
He bore the burden of all the dirty and unsightly things, so that when something like what happened to Fei Rui occured, she could blame him with a reason, accuse him and criticize him, whereas she herself could be at ease.
Even though Cole’s personality was twisted, but he really treated her nicely.
Elvis and Lea were unwilling for Gu Mengmeng to continue staying in the deep sea, where she would be reminded of sad memories, so after they updated Carter on the operation of the tribe, as well as the precautions when guarding the Kiss of the Ocean, they left with Gu Mengmeng.
It was rare that during this period, Auretin, who had always been a glutton, did not bug Lea for food. Instead, he wore an emotionless face with a solemn aura each time.
After arriving on land, Auretin asked Gu Mengmeng, “Are you feeling upset?”
Gu Mengmeng looked at him in confusion.
Auretin pursed his lips and added, “About little Fei Rui.”
Gu Mengmeng’s eyes dimmed and she nodded.
Auretin, “Is it a feeling of emptiness?”
Gu Mengmeng smiled bitterly and nodded again.
Auretin replied ‘Oh’ after thinking deeply, then said after a long period of silence, “So it feels like this to lose a friend.”
Gu Mengmeng looked at Auretin in confusion. She wanted to say something, but she could not find the right words to express herself.
But as though he could understand the emotions in her eyes, Auretin replied directly, “In the past, I did not have any friends. After knowing you guys, I finally became close to others. You and Elvis, Lea are all strong enough, so... this is my first time losing a friend.”
Gu Mengmeng patted Auretin’s shoulders and said, “Someone once told me that not every farewell is an expected one, they would always bring you pain and take you by surprise. So... treasure the person before you. While he is still around, treat them as nicely as you can, so that when this ‘surprise’ comes, you would not be feeling regrets. You won’t be tortured by all the ‘what-ifs’ – ‘what if I had treated him nicer’, ‘what if I had listened to him more attentively’, ‘what if...’”
Auretin seemed to understand vaguely and nodded dazedly. For the first time, he turned around to look at the never ending deep ocean.
He was telling himself that from that day onwards, if he met someone he cares about, he would treat them as best as he could.
After leaving the ocean, the last stop was Saint Nazaire.
When they returned to Saint Nazaire, they could see Barete standing straight at the entrance of the tribe from a distance.
Barete, whom they had not seen for a long time, had matured and was no longer that young man who was impulsively brave and blindly following Gu Mengmeng’s instructions to help her escape from Saint Nazaire.
Within a short span of five years, he had already built up an aged feeling because of an unmentionable relationship.
Besides Barete, Burke and Kanwu had all reached Saint Nazaire.
Gu Mengmeng was not the least surprised. After all, Chixuan had already rushed to the Snake King valley right after winter ended, so it was impossible for Kanwu and Burke to not know that something had happened to Gu Mengmeng.
