Chapter 694: Are You Abandoning Me?

“No!” Gu Mengmeng hollered and sped over .

Gu Mengmeng successfully distracted Lea and he was startled for half a second . He pushed Elvis aside and ran towards Gu Mengmeng . Lea threw her across his shoulders and sprinted in the opposite direction .

Gu Mengmeng was feeling very nauseous from being spun around like that, but she didn’t stop Lea’s madness .

After running for a whole night until the sun rose the next morning, they reached an extremely dense part of the forest .

Lea gradually slowed down and stared at his surroundings in a daze .

Brows tightly knitted, Lea put Gu Mengmeng down . His frown deepened when he noticed her pale face .

Twisting his lips, Lea was unable to utter a word of explanation .

How to explain?

That he had secretly started spiking Elvis’ food from seven days ago . That Lea had made use of Elvis’ complete trust in him to spike his food and weaken his body . That he had done it so Elvis would not be able to fully display his fifth-level beast power last night and enabled Lea to snatch her away?

She had such a good sense of sight, she must have clearly seen how despicable his face was last night .

What else could he say to her now?

Gu Mengmeng leaned against a massive tree and gradually sat down . She breathed out and looked up at Lea with a smile . “Not running anymore?”

Lea nodded in silence . He just waited quietly for her questioning and reprimand .

But…

“Next time, could you carry me across your back when you go for a long-distance run like that? Hanging me across your shoulders made me so nauseous…”

Lea, “…?!”

Gu Mengmeng raised her head and gazed at Lea’s befuddled expression . She chuckled . “I am hungry and thirsty after a long night of running . Could you get me something to eat?”

Lea gaped and wanted to say something but his words got stuck in his throat After much back and forth, he finally spoke a single word . “Alright . ”

Lea surveyed the surroundings and discovered a tree not far off, full of juicy fruits hanging off its branches . He quickly went over and plucked two of them . After wiping them clean, he presented the fruits to Gu Mengmeng . “Eat this first to stave off your hunger . I will go hunting in a while and make you something nice later . ”

Gu Mengmeng received the fruits and smiled with one raised eyebrow . “”Wow, never thought that I could still eat peaches in this place . ”

“Peaches?” Lea asked .

Gu Mengmeng nodded . “This is something that can be found in my previous place . However, they were not as big as this . ”

Taking a bite, the peach was revealed to be full of sweet juices . Gu Mengmeng squinted in satisfaction and handed over the other peach to Lea . “Ooh, delicious . Take one . ”

Lea shook his head and just continued to look at Lea in silence .

He was thinking that if he could have been a bit more selfish right from the start and let go of all that grievances and thoughts of revenge . If he had taken her away like he had now, hiding in the deep forest and never letting the Messenger of the Beast Deity appear . Then she would never have had to go through all that pain and torment . Could they have avoided all this aimless drifting? She would be like how she was now smiling because of the sweetness of a fruit and sharing it with him .

Lea pushed the peach back into Gu Mengmeng’s hands and kissed her lightly on the head . “Mengmeng, I love you… Mengmeng, sorry . ”

Gu Mengmeng chuckled . “Did you bring me into such a deep part of the forest just to abandon me?”
