Chapter 919
“A person who purposely restricted his own promotion so that he could be used as bait—is now teaching others the importance of becoming stronger?” Gu Mengmeng recalled Lea’s earlier decision, which still made her feel very angry and made her heart ache.
Lea smiled enchantingly. He tapped Gu Mengmeng’s little face with one finger before drawing her into his arms. “You are a grudging little fellow. Haven’t I already repented? Moreover, our family situation was different from his. We already have a powerful Elvis, that’s why I dared to be a weaker Lea. But for his family, he is already the most powerful. If he becomes a handicapped beast, the combat capabilities of Sandy’s whole family would be greatly reduced. Playing the hero without regard for Sandy’s safety is stupidity to the extreme.”
The validity of Lea’s words were undeniable.
From an objective angle, Collin needed to ensure his own safety and quickly upgrade his powers. This would be the greatest guarantee for Sandy’s own security.
Sacrificing himself in exchange for a fleeting moment of safety for Sandy—his actions today were too reckless.
If they were not present today, Cole would probably have killed Collin and then killed Sandy.
By then, what hope could there be for Sandy?
But when one was faced with danger, when would they have the time to think so much? They would just do their best to protect the person most important to them. Gu Mengmeng still felt that this was something that didn’t deserve a scolding.
Collin did not want to be the cause of a quarrel between Gu Mengmeng and Lea. Hence, he lowered his head and said in a rough voice, “Gu Mengmeng, don’t blame Lea. The fact that he is willing to treat my injury shows how highly he regards your close relationship with Sandy. In general, males in a tribe who got injured will be left to fend for themselves. If not for Lea, my arm will definitely be handicapped. And if I ended up a handicapped beast, I will have to leave Sandy in order not to be a burden to her… so, Lea not only rescued my arm, he saved my life. Moreover, he is speaking the truth. I must become more powerful in order to protect Sandy.”
Great, here we have one person willing to be an abuser, while the other person was willing to bear the abuse.
And it made Gu Mengmeng appear nosy.
Gu Mengmeng smacked Collin’s arm viciously, making him cry out in pain. Only then did she pat off her hands and say, “Good that you know this. Quickly upgrade yourself. If something like this happens again, where you are helpless when Sandy is faced with danger, I will bring her back to live with me.”
At this, not only Collin, but even Lea was incited.
Sandy and Gu Mengmeng living together? Then where would he and Elvis live?!
You must be kidding?!
After glaring at Collin, Lea gritted his teeth. “You, from tomorrow onwards, you must go train with Elvis daily to improve your capabilities as soon as possible!”
Collin quickly nodded. “Yes yes yes. I will definitely do my best.”
Gu Mengmeng couldn’t be bothered with those two fellows anymore. She wanted to get down from Lea’s arms to take a look at Sandy, but he refused to let go.
“It’s a rare opportunity that Elvis is not around, and I can finally hold you. You want to see Sandy, right? I will carry you over.”
“Sandy is a female.” Gu Mengmeng’s words held an underlying meaning. It was not convenient for Lea to enter.
But Lea smiled cunningly. “I am a witch doctor.”
Gu Mengmeng held her face and thought: You are abusing your position for personal gains.
But Lea did not care and just strode into Sandy’s bedroom with Gu Mengmeng in his arms.
