Chapter 672 - Aren’t I Your Hero?
Hooking Gu Mengmeng’s chin, Elvis smiled a dark and evil smile as he stared at her in deep affection, saying, “As long as you’re happy, it doesn’t matter to raise a little wolf cub to failure. But one thing you have to remember, when he becomes food for the enemies, you’re not allowed to be sad and cry.”
Gu Mengmeng pursed her lips.
She knew about the survival of the fittest principle, there was too much of Snake’s memories that concerned the concept of passing down.
And wasn’t this attack of the stray beasts a living example?
Even a baby eagle would not learn to fly when he was being raised in his Mother hen’s nest.
She was aware of all the principles but… Kanwu is her blood-related son, her heart will definitely ache for him.
Kanwu completely ignored Elvis as he treated his words as a puff of wind passing his ear that disappeared upon a wind’s blow.
Kanwu placed his little hand on Gu Mengmeng’s leg as his azure blue eyes reflected the glow from the campfire. He had a type of persistence that kids his age did not have. Frowning slightly, he looked into Gu Mengmeng’s eyes and assured her, “Mummy, don’t worry. I’m not in pain, I’m really not in pain. As a wolf, this trivial injury is nothing.”
Gu Mengmeng was taken aback for a moment before she broke out into a smile.
Kanwu this little rascal….
Although he said he hated Elvis and was always on loggerheads with him, but in reality…..the influence of his Father had developed roots in his heart.
That furrowed brows and that deliberate, mature gaze of his, together with his words ‘as a wolf’…..
If you look closely, it would not be hard to notice that Kanwu had many details imitating Elvis unknowingly.
Rubbing Kanwu’s little head, Gu Mengmeng nodded in gentleness and commended, “My son is so brave.”
Kanwu was surprised, he thought…..that his Mother will get angry.
He provoked the authority in his family and went against his Mother’s arrangements. If he did not run into the battlefield on his own will, his Mother would not chase after him into the battlefield. That way, his Mother would not emit her beast pressure upon agitation and would not end up being so weak
But his Mother did not chide him.
Not even a sentence.
But before his Mother woke up, he was ready to be hung on a tree and die from heating under the sun or even banished from the tribe.
“Mummy….” Kanwu felt his nose scrunch up as he called out in a baby voice.
Gu Mengmeng opened her arms wide and hugged Kanwu, patting his back lightly. “My son’s all grown up, he’s not the little wolf cub who only knew how to hide behind his Mother’s back to seek help after being bullied by his Father. In the future, Mummy will rely on you guys for protection, alright? My little hero.”
Kanwu looked up with tears welled up in his azure blue eyes. He nodded firmly and promised, “I’ll protect Mummy forever and forever.”
Gu Mengmeng cupped Kanwu’s face and landed a peck on his forehead, saying, “Alright, I’ll be looking forward.”
Kanwu wanted to add something but Lea had already grabbed him by his neck out from Gu Mengmeng’s arms. Lea smiled a gentle smile and said, “Kanwu still have to treat his injuries, after all, he’s just a half-orc so his recovery abilities are still too poor. If we don’t treat him in time, I’m afraid he will have it hard later on in life.”
Gu Mengmeng nodded and gave her consent, “Alright, I’ll hand Kanwu to you.”
Lea carried Kanwu and turned his head to walk away, leaving a sentence, “Don’t worry.”
Gu Mengmeng did not know why but upon hearing Lea’s words, she felt a chill down her spine. Why did he look so much like a……human trafficker when he lifted Kanwu away.
“Aren’t I…..your hero? Hmm?” A deep and husky voice sounded over her head, encompassing a strong emotion to kill someone….
