Chapter 808: You Can’t Run Away In Our Next Life.
Elvis lowered his head and kissed Gu Mengmeng’s collarbone. He said in a raspy, low voice, his gaze as deep as the ocean. “No matter what you want to do, I will support you. But you must promise me that you will not be sad. When you are sad... my heart will crumble into pieces, it’s very, very painful.”
Gu Mengmeng kissed Elvis’ forehead in return. Her gaze was calm and gentle. In a voice as light as a feather across Elvis’ heart, she said, “As long as you all are well and happy, nothing will make me sad.”
Elvis knew that Gu Mengmeng’s “you all” included him, Lea and those four little ones. It even included Sandy, Auretin, Ian, Wabei and all those whom she cared about.
In reality, it was not an easy thing to have everyone be “well and happy”. After all, fighting was an integral part of life for males. They were constantly engaged in the battle for life and death. To be able to live to a ripe old age like Snakel—he was the only one the Beast World who was able to do that.
But for Gu Mengmeng’ sake, Elvis was willing to shoulder that burden and protect everyone she cared about. As long as she could be well and happy.
Gu Mengmeng leaned against Elvis’ chest, her eyes full of a faint heartache.
“Hubby, could you tell me what happened during your childhood? I am nearly driving myself crazy thinking about it...” Gu Mengmeng interrupted herself halfway. “But if talking about it will bring back the pain, it doesn’t matter if you don’t tell me, I... don’t really want to know that much, anyway.”
Elvis rubbed Gu Mengmeng head with a smile. “Silly girl, didn’t I tell you before? Although the past was not that great, it made me the powerful person I am today, making it possible for me to meet you. So, if that was the price I had to pay to meet you, I feel it was too little, actually... it could have been even more painful.”
Gu Mengmeng was amused by Elvis’ bizarre logic. Her doe-eyes shone with a sweet glow. “No wonder our sons said you and Lea are weirdos. Who will ever wish for more pain?”
Elvis pinched Gu Mengmeng’s little chin and kissed her alluring lips. “As long as I can meet you, I am willing to pay any price.”
“I guess I must have saved the Milky Way in my previous life, to be able to meet such great guys like you and Lea.”
Elvis didn’t know what was the Milky Way, but...
“If saving the Milky Way will enable me to meet you, then Lea and I will go save him in this lifetime. So that you can’t run away in our next life.”
Gu Mengmeng smiled and nodded. “Yeah, I won’t run. I will obediently wait right here for you two.”
Elvis’ heart softened at finally seeing a smile from Gu Mengmeng. “I will bring you to see my “childhood”. Otherwise your imagination will run wild.”
“Really?” Gu Mengmeng’s eyes brightened.
Elvis nodded.
Gu Mengmeng happily pecked Elvis’ on the face. The knot in her heart gradually relaxed.
She knew that Elvis’ past was not pleasant. But that was precisely why she wanted to understand it and be involved in it.
No matter what terrifying scars he bore from the past, she wished to use warmth and love to erase those wounds.
Elvis’ called out to Lea and then carried Gu Mengmeng into the depths of the stray beast territory. They encountered fights between stray beasts on the way, but Elvis ignored them and walked right past. No matter how savage and bloody the fight was, he maintained a jaded expression, without even the tiniest flicker of his eyelids.
