Chapter 155 - Lesson Learned
Gu Mengmeng did not reply to Sandy. Please forgive her, for she has always valued love over friendship, hence hibernating. Moreover, she and Lea are so infatuated with each other right now, of course Lea is the only one in her eyes. Sandy will definitely understand~
“You’re back. You’ve worked hard.” Gu Mengmeng took Lea by his neck and kissed his face.
Lea looked a lot more relaxed, yet it was still difficult to hide his disappointment: “You sang really well, it’s a pity… I could not listen to all of it.”
Gu Mengmeng was all smiles: “Isn’t it just singing? If you want to listen, I can sing to you every day.”
Lea raised his eyebrows, smiled and kissed Gu Mengmeng’s face: “I’m really looking forward to that.”
It was clear to Gu Mengmeng that Lea wanted to listen to listen to her singing now, so without further ado, she snuggled up in Lea’s arms and sang Hebe Tien’s “My Little Happiness”. When she finished singing, she looked up and fixed her eyes on Lea’s sweet smile, only to see him gently raising her chin with his finger and put his lips on hers. After kissing for awhile, he started chanting in a slightly hoarse voice: “Gu Mengmeng, Gu Mengmeng, Gu Mengmeng…”
“Hmm?” Gu Mengmeng looked confusedly at Lea. He hasn’t called her by her full name for a long time, but now that he called her like that again, she felt a sense of unfamiliarity grew within her. This unfamiliarity pounded at her heart one time after another, messing up the rhythm of her heartbeat.
“I’m chanting your name, very seriously.” Lea kissed Gu Mengmeng’s forehead once again, and said affectionately: “Because I know, meeting you has been the happiest thing that has ever happened in my life.”
Gu Mengmeng couldn’t help but to laugh from the sweetness she felt in her heart. She hugged Lea while patting his back lightly: “They are just lyrics, you don’t have to take them too seriously. Many lyricists merely write songs pretending sadness without any substantial content.”
Lea did not say much, only kissing Gu Mengmeng on her tiny mouth again, then saying: “I’m going to cook fish for all of you to eat.”
Gu Mengmeng felt a little iffy. Why was Lea suddenly so friendly towards Sandy and Maya when he has only cared about her all along? She turned around again, only to see Bode with a flushed face. He took the initiative to take the bowl that Gu Mengmeng had just used, helping her to re-stack new, clean leaves and delivered them to her, “I won’t complain that you’re troublesome anymore. You’re really great, you’re really really great.”
“Eh?” Gu Mengmeng was at a loss. Why did everyone become so different just after a fishing trip?
Sandy noticed her confusion and walked over: “They definitely heard the song you just sang for Maya and I. Gu Mengmeng, you’re really nice, you definitely sang that so Lea wouldn’t dare to bully us in the future right?”
Gu Mengmeng really wanted to tell her that it was a misunderstanding…
But since it has come to this, Gu Mengmeng decided not to explain. After all, she had learned her lesson from the Yoo Sijin story.
Lea had made additional improvements on the basis of Gu Mengmeng, making the fish taste even more delicious than before. Although Gu Mengmeng was already full, she ate another bowl of fish. Lea, satisfied, carried Gu Mengmeng with the stone pot that Bode had washed and walked back.
Gu Mengmeng was still carrying a big bowl in her arms. It was the one that she had snatched back on behalf of Elvis when the fish had just been cooked by Lea.
The sunset dyed a light layer of afterglow on Lea’s silver fur, presenting a mysterious color that was between pink and purple. The gentle breeze scattered some of the fur. From Gu Mengmeng’s point of view, the word “Otherworldly” was clearly written on Lea’s profile. After looking at him for a while, she fell asleep soundly.
Lea’s embrace, truly brings one peace.
