Chapter 1066 - Greed Was Man’s Basic Nature
Gu Mengmeng gave up and decided to stay behind. She took two steps backwards and stood facing Elvis and Lea. After squinting her eyes to size them up, she remained silent for a while before saying, “I’ve Wang Xiaoxin’s psychological knowledge now so I can fish out information from your words and after each step, I can get to the truth eventually whenever I want. But I don’t want to do it so you two better tell me immediately, directly and clearly what exactly is going on?”
Lea did not want to say the truth because he was scared that Gu Mengmeng would feel burden and guilt.
Because after she had two partners, she was always acting with utmost caution when it came to relationships. She could clearly request anything she wanted in a confident and straightforward way but she was now scared to do so.
Just like how Victor expressed his love for Gu Mengmeng just now. Regardless whether she decided to accept Victor, Elvis’s and his way of doing things were not appropriate in the Beast World. She had the authority to get angry and may even abandon both of them but she came over to appease them with a nervous mindset.
This led to them reaching out for a yard after taking an inch. Now, even the leading position in the family had become unclear.
But Lea did not forget that he was the one who forced Gu Mengmeng in playing this inferior role. Back then, if he accepted Gu Mengmeng with a quiet conscience and did not stir things up, he would be living a holy life with her today. Or maybe if he let her go elegantly when she clearly rejected him after mating with Elvis, even if he were to live life like death alone, he would not pester her, disturb her or force her. That way, she would definitely be living life in a confident and straightforward, dignified and imposing way.
But greed was man’s basic nature, something that was engraved in their bones.
They would want to possess things they could not possess and when they eventually possessed whatever they wanted, they would want to possess more. And when they wanted to possess more, they would want to solely possess those things. When sole possession is impossible…..then, like wild beasts protecting their food, they would bare their teeth at anyone who tried to step close to them, in an attempt to warn and threaten them.
If this happened in other families, they would end up as males who were detested and abandoned.
However, when facing their possessive characters, Gu Mengmeng tolerated them with a guilty mindset.
Lea felt conflicted at times, he truly did not wish Gu Mengmeng to take in any other males but he wished that Gu Mengmeng could live life in a more confident and straightforward way, even if it meant giving him a lashing-down.
So, when Gu Mengmeng asked him why he was unwilling to give birth to little wolves, he hesitated.
Unwilling?
Ha, every nerve and every cell in his body was growling, he wants! He wants her to give birth to his children!
But…
Lea frowned deeply, lowering his head.
The previous Messenger of the Beast Deity’s expertise was to conjecture one’s heart. After passing down through so many generations, many important information had went missing but just with their aberrant copy, the snow fox tribesmen still had the ability to control the entire Beast World.
In this generation, Cole and Lea were the cream of the cop, one of them being a fierce and ambitious male and the other being a hermit. And what a coincidence, they both fell for the same lady.
Lea did not want Gu Mengmeng to spot any flaws from his expression so he lowered his head and avoided her gaze in silence.
Elvis did not think about so many matters like Lea, he only knew that since he promised Gu Mengmeng that he would not hide anything from her, he had to keep to his promise.
Extending his hand out to pull Gu Mengmeng, he tugged and pulled her into his arms. He kissed the top of her head and said, “Do you remember how you almost died from giving birth to Kanwu?”
