Chapter 1245 - Your Smile Is So Scary, I Must Have Done Something Wrong.
By the time Bode laid out the animal skins, Gu Mengmeng had just finished feeding Sandy the bowl of mince meat. She then glanced at Collin, who stood up without a word and headed outside, his head lowered the entire time. Collin was usually proud and domineering, one of the tyrants in Sauder—but he became as docile as a dog in front of Gu Mengmeng. He did not dare to talk too much and would just follow meekly behind her. On seeing Gu Mengmeng sit down on one corner of the animal skins while Elvis sat behind her for her to lean back against—Collin made to do the same so that Sandy could recline on himself.
But he had just taken one step onto the animal skin when Gu Mengmeng clicked her tongue. Collin was so scared that he hurriedly withdrew his foot, before gazing pitifully at Gu Mengmeng.
Gu Mengmeng said, “Give Sandy to me. Go get all the males in your house out here now.”
Collin secretly broke out in a cold sweat. He nodded timidly, not daring to utter a word. He hurried to gather Sandy’s original four partners and the new seven ones together. All 11 of them stood in one straight line in front of the animal skin.
Sandy’s original four males knew what was happening. They kept their eyes lowered and dared not make any noise.
But the seven newly partnered wolf beasts were befuddled. They exchanged confused looks but did not dare to raise any objections. After all, right before them was the Messenger of the Beast Deity and the Queen of the wolf tribe. And sitting right behind her was the Wolf king himself.
Gu Mengmeng cast a sweeping glance across all 11 faces. She said in a neutral tone. “You are all so daring.”
“Great Messenger, I have done wrong.” Collin was the first to acknowledge his mistake. His attitude was sincere.
Gu Mengmeng chuckled. “Oh? Tell me, what have you done wrong?”
Collin scratched his head. “I don’t know but your smile is so scary, I must have done something wrong.”
Gu Mengmeng smiled in exasperation. She lowered her head and asked Sandy, “Girl, what made you fall for this dumb block of wood then?”
Sandy’s throat was so hoarse that she was completely unable to speak. She could only smile helplessly as she gave a gentle shake of her head.
Gu Mengmeng lifted her chin again. “How many fourth-level beasts are there in your family now?”
Collin answered, “Currently, I am the only one. But I think Hodgson and Jerry will be promoted after just one more battle.”
Gu Mengmeng nodded. “So as of now, you are still the most powerful in your household?”
Collin nodded dumbly.
Gu Mengmeng’s face darkened. “What is your duty as the most powerful in your family?”
“Protect Sandy,” Collin answered without even the need to think.
Gu Mengmeng smirked. “Is this what you call protecting Sandy then? Mmm?”
Collin was stunned by her question. He also felt rather aggrieved. “But Sandy herself chose those partners…”
“Oh, so if one day Sandy decides to commit suicide, will you just let her go and die?!”
“No way!” Collin looked up in a panic. He was so anxious that he could hardly speak properly.
Gu Mengmeng pointed at the bear mark over Sandy’s heart. “Your mark is over her heart, and you are also the most powerful in the family. You need to protect her, and your first priority is to ensure her safety under any circumstances. But she was tortured into such a state right under your watch. And you still dare to tell me you don’t know what you have done wrong?”
Feeling very distressed, Collin lowered his head. “Then… next time, I will rush in to break up the mating when she really can’t take it anymore.”
