Chapter 1127: The Forgotten Maya

Gu Mengmeng shook her head . The storage area in their cave had been expanded to more than three times its size . For the first year, Gu Mengmeng knew it was to ensure she had enough food . Elvis and Lea both ate very little, just enough to stay alive .

Last year, Cole had led her by the nose to spend winter in Sauder . Elvis did not have much time then to make preparations, but luckily they had help from the three little ones . They managed to prepare enough food in the end .

This year…

Ha, Elvis had gone into rampage mode . It was as if he couldn’t wait to butcher every single prey in sight and bring them all back . The cave was now filled to the brim . Even if the three of them ate ravenously, they would not be able to finish so much food over the winter months .

What else could she want? Nothing, really nothing…

Over the next few days, Lea left early in the morning and returned late at night, looking very travel-weary .

Gu Mengmeng’s heart ached to see him constantly on the move . She said that she could prepare the meals herself during this period and told him not to return everyday just to cook three meals for her .

After all, Lea could settle his own meals out in the wilderness . He could get more rest if he didn’t need to spend time cooking .

But Lea didn’t agree . He hugged her and said, “The daily three meals are an excuse for me to catch my breath . If I don’t make use of this reason to come back and see you, I will probably not be able to make it through these long, tiresome days . ”

Gu Mengmeng’s heart was suffused with sweetness, but she still couldn’t bear to see him suffer . Hence, she offered to prepare the three meals, and he could just come back to eat with her .

But Lea held her little hand firmly . “Silly girl, your male is still alive . How can he let you suffer so?”

Failing to convince him, Lea continued to come back promptly everyday to prepare the three meals . He would hurry out to continue his work only after ensuring Gu Mengmeng was well taken care of .

The weather had turned cooler . Even without any prior experience of it, one could tell winter should be approaching soon .

“Mengmeng . ” Lea draped an animal fur over Gu Mengmeng’s shoulders before wrapping his arms around her . He kissed her forehead . “It will be winter soon . Should we hold a bonfire party to celebrate a bit?”

“Mmm?” Gu Mengmeng didn’t understand . Everyone was busy preparing their own food supplies . Who would have the time to organize some bonfire party?

Lea said, “Saint Nazaire was not too peaceful the same time last year . You are back holding the fort this year and no one dares to come and create trouble . But the hearts of our people still harbor a lingering shadow of fear . Yesterday when I met Maya, she said that she still feels as if some enemy might charge in at any moment and snatch away her family’s food and kill all her males…”

“Maya . . ” Gu Mengmeng pondered for a moment . She had nearly forgotten about that female .

Maya was previously on good terms with Nina, and just stood by watching coolly as Nina bullied Sandy for so many years . Thereafter, Gu Mengmeng had arrived and Nina lost power . Only then did Maya distance herself from Nina and started hanging out with them .

Because of the high value of females and the desire to keep the peace and harmony within Saint Nazaire, she had not given much thought to Maya .

They lived in the same tribe but they were not close at all .

“Mengmeng . ” Lea hooked Gu Mengmeng’s chin . His slanted eyes met hers and she detected the slyness behind his faint smile . Lea said in a low voice, “I want you tell Maya that you wish to get a male vulture as a partner . And that we are going to the Motou mountain range to seek out a treasure during the monsoon season . ”

Gu Mengmeng looked at Lea in puzzlement . “Why should I tell her that?”
