Chapter 707 - Finally Home
“Oh yes, what should we do with Burke and the children?” Gu Mengmeng asked.
Elvis replied, “Burke’s injuries are quite serious but he will live. The four little ones had been drugged unconscious by Lea and will recover within a few days. I had asked Collin to bring them to Saint Nazaire and take care of them. You don’t need to worry.”
Gu Mengmeng nodded before relaxing.
Having rested for four days, Lea’s injuries had already more or less healed.
Gu Mengmeng leaned against Elvis with some worry. “Did you all also suffer such injuries in the past? Why do I feel that you both have never been well since being with me?”
Elvis rubbed Gu Mengmeng head. “What are you saying? It’s very normal for a male to suffer injuries.”
Lea also smiled. “That’s right. If I don’t get injured, how to make you ache for me?”
Gu Mengmeng understood that they were just comforting her.
Sandy had told her quite a number of the past great feats performed by Elvis and Lea. It was mostly about how they had emerged victorious from countless fierce battles, and escaped from endless dangerous situations. They had been described by Sandy as sort of Arnold Schwarzenegger-like commandos. Their accumulated trials and tribulation had resulted in the present-day Saint Nazaire.
But since meeting her, these two somehow always looked rather wretched, constantly suffering from one injury or another.
Gu Mengmeng smiled and didn’t expose their ruse. She just nodded. “Since Lea has more or less recovered, why don’t we head back to Saint Nazaire. I am worried about the children, and… to find the items for Cole, we need to plan properly.”
Elvis and Lea didn’t object. They would yield to her every whim. For better or for worse, they would accompany her even to the depths of hell.
As long as it was for her, anything was possible.
The three of them took two days to return to Saint Nazaire.
After that incident during that memorial, she had been tricked into Sauder by Cole. Thereafter, it had been to the Snake King valley and then back to Sauder. They had finally settled the matter at Sauder and was about to hurry home when this situation happened.
It was just a trip back home. How did such a simple matter become even more challenging than getting a train ticket back home during the Spring Festival?
Even as Gu Mengmeng stood before her own cave, she felt a sense of bewilderment and surreality.
“What’s the matter?” Elvis kissed Gu Mengmeng’s little face.
Gu Mengmeng shook her head. “Nothing, let’s go home.”
Elvis placed Gu Mengmeng down and held her left hand while Lea took her right hand. The three of them entered the cave.
Yeah, in the past, they had returned home in this manner too.
On the day that the Platform of the Deity’s Punishment allowed them to bring Lea home, they had enlarged the entrance of the cave to make it possible for the three of them to enter at the same time.
Hede and his brothers were not home. Gu Mengmeng was rather disappointed and looked at Elvis. “Where are the children? Are they still at Sandy’s?”
Elvis kissed her forehead. “Don’t worry, we had given off our scent on the way home, and everyone knows we are back. Those wolf pups will return soon.”
Gu Mengmeng nodded and remained silent.
Giving off their scent… she was still not used to it.
As expected, Sandy were leading the four wolf pups over before long.
