Chapter 628: So Please Leave, Stop Annoying Me.

Burke was standing beside her and blocking himself from the rain using his prey while Gu Mengmeng sized him up before asking, “What are you doing?”

Burke carried his prey on his shoulders and tried to block as much rain as possible from Gu Mengmeng. He was standing at a spot against the wind but he stood there firmly, not moving an inch even though the rain hit him from behind. “I met Elvis when I was on the way back…are you waiting for him?”

Gu Mengmeng did not answer him as she just quietly looked down at the pool of water by her feet. With every raindrop, the ripples spread open but not a single circle was created when their path was smashed by another drop of rain.

Burke did not mind her reaction as he continued, “I came out to hunt on behalf of the tribe elders, you said that…if we want to stay behind, we have to provide for ourselves and not become a burden for the tribe.”

Gu Mengmeng still did not reply to him.

After Snake’s incident, Gu Mengmeng was clearly aware that if you did not want to give others a chance from the beginning, you had to keep your kind and casual side to prevent giving them hope and creating misunderstandings.

Burke seemed like he could not see Gu Mengmeng’s repulsion towards him as he added, “I, Burke, always keep to my promise. Since you’re shielding our tribe, my life is yours.”

Upon seeing how Burke did not have any intention to stop, Gu Mengmeng looked at him coldly with the corners of her eyes and said, “Your life has no value to me. So, keep it to yourself because I don’t need it. And, you’re blocking my view of the rain so please leave, stop annoying me.”

Burke was taken aback for two seconds and his expression froze. Then, he lowered his head and said, “I’ll accompany you until Elvis returns. After all, you’re in the wild and it’s not safe for a female to be here alone.”

The rain was still falling heavily and the dense mist filled the surroundings. It was very cold but it made Gu Mengmeng feel comfortable.

Gu Mengmeng chuckled lightly and said, “Do you still think that….anyone can hurt me in the Beast World?”

Burke’s legs wobbled from the beast pressure Gu Mengmeng slowly emitted. Frowning, he clenched his teeth but still did not want to leave.

Gu Mengmeng kept her beast pressure and just stared at him calmly, saying, “I won’t accept you so you don’t have to waste your effort to garner my favor. There are many females in the tribe, your success rate will be higher if you change your aim.”

The rain was pelting down, making one feel the chill to their bones. Burke, too, felt cold sweat forming over his entire body, the chill inside him being worse than the rain.

Gu Mengmeng indeed had the ability to protect herself, she did not need him.

But, Burke still shook his head firmly and said, “I’ll accompany you until Elvis returns. Once he comes back, I’ll leave.”

Gu Mengmeng frowned and rejected him, “I said, I don’t need your accompaniment.”

Burke stood his stand stubbornly, “If you don’t need anyone’s accompaniment, don’t give off such a lonely expression. It really makes one’s heart ache.”

Burke’s volume was not high. If Gu Mengmeng did not have such sharp hearing now, she probably could not have heard him in this rain.

Startled for a moment, Gu Mengmeng stood up slowly and said, “Since you’re not leaving, I’ll leave.”

Burke looked at Gu Mengmeng walking speedily into the rain and lost all focus. Until she completely disappeared, he then lowered his head slowly and muttered to himself, “I just…wanted to accompany you.”

Gu Mengmeng accurately found where Elvis was after entering the forest.

When she had just reached, Elvis was biting onto the throat of a tiger. Its blood was diluted after being washed away by rainwater and tainted a large surface area of the trench between the soil, looking like blood vessels across a human body.
