Chapter 46 - Not Allowed to Divorce Even with Broken Relationship?!
Gu Mengmeng looked at Sandy with a confused face, not knowing why she said that.
Sandy pressed her lips together and lowered her volume further, “This is an unsaid rule between the females that we do not intervene anything between them and their males.”
Gu Mengmeng looked at Sandy, thought for a while before nodding her head.
Indeed, even an upright official finds it hard to settle a family quarrel. It was not suitable for her as an outsider to intervene.
Gu Mengmeng sighed and held back her raging chivalrous heart. She decided to be a humble onlooker and watch this ‘Break-up Arena’ live on stage.
“I would have long broken up with Nina if I am Quentin,” Gu Mengmeng twitched her mouth scornfully and tilted her head slightly to tell Sandy.
Gu Mengmeng kept her voice very low, but the crowd had heard it.
Her words were even more unacceptable than Nina saying she wanted to divorce with Quentin. It was an idea that would shake the whole world.
Sandy was also shocked, her big adorable eyes blinked and looked at Gu Mengmeng. After what seemed a long time, she said, “A male can only have one partner in their entire lifetime. Once they were divorced from their partner, they would receive the punishment from the Rage of the Beast Deity. Even if those that are stronger are able to survive it, they will become stray beasts. The lead the life of the walking dead, not feeling joy and warmth for the rest of their lives, in addition to getting chased and killed by all orcs. That type of life… is so pathetic.”
“What?!” Gu Mengmeng’s eyes opened wider than Sandy’s. Not allowed to divorce even with a broken relationship between the couple? This was an utmost inhumane rule, making divorce seem like destroying the whole galaxy, even getting chased and killed by everyone? What has me divorcing got to do with you?
Sandy was confused looking at Gu Mengmeng’s shocked reaction. Wasn’t this common sense? Why did Gu Mengmeng act as if she doesn’t know about it at all?
Gu Mengmeng looked at Sandy’s expression and realized she had probably overreacted.
Maybe, in this world where the gender ratio was unbalanced to the extreme, this rule acted as a form of protection for the females? Otherwise, just the personality of the females in the Beast World would make males want to strangle countless number of females like Nina.
Although Nina was loathsome, the Beast World could not continue to breed and raise offspring if all the females were strangled to death.
After thinking through it, Gu Mengmeng looked more relaxed. She shook her head and said, “Never mind then, why do we have to join in the fight between them couples? Come, let’s go back and eat. Your rabbit meat seems no longer warm, may I help you heat it up?”
Talking about food, Sandy immediately forgot Gu Mengmeng’s oddness moments ago. With shining eyes, she nodded and answered softly, “Gu Mengmeng, the rabbit meat you cooked was so delicious, unlike any I have eaten before. It has a… a… I don’t know how to describe it, but it was really delicious.”
Gu Mengmeng smiled and said, “Eat more if you like it.”
As she was speaking, she took the remaining rabbit meat in Sandy’s hand and put it back to roast on the fire pit. But the location was even nearer to Nina and Quentin, making Gu Mengmeng look like the popcorn seller in front of a cinema, not missing out anything on screen without buying tickets.
The smell of roasted rabbit spread out and Nina’s tongue twisted, she could not even scold Quentin fluently. Looking at the Sandy’s blessed face as she satisfactorily munched on a piece of rabbit meat, Nina had almost bid her tongue as well.
Damn!
Nina was furious. She was the most beautiful in the tribe, when did it become the lowly half-orc female Sandy’s turn to enjoy delicious food first?
