Beauty And The Beast: Wolf Hubby XOXO Chapter 1177 - An Utter Scumbag

Chapter 1177: An Utter Sc.u.mbag

“I advice you not to underestimate the enemy.” Auretin threw a dampener at Gu Mengmeng. “You have the powers of a Beast King, but the desert is a completely different environment. There are sand storms all over and any misstep might mean getting buried under the sand until your body disintegrates. Meanwhile, scorpions scurry unimpeded under the sea of sand. So even with your Beast King abilities, you might not have an easy advantage over a monster who has survived over a thousand years.”

d.a.m.n, in this Beast World, she really had no age advantage at all.

It seemed like every other strange creature was at least a thousand years old?

Grumblings aside, Gu Mengmeng still nodded. “Alright, I know.”

Gu Mengmeng had a limited appet.i.te. Meanwhile, Elvis and Lea depended on Auretin to lead the way, and would naturally not s.n.a.t.c.h his share. So of the two large pots of food—apart from a small bowl for Gu Mengmeng—all of it entered Auretin’s belly. Auretin suddenly felt that it was no big deal to return to that place. As long as he had meat to eat, wasn’t everywhere the same?

After breakfast, Elvis carried Gu Mengmeng to the open s.p.a.ce beside their cave to take in the sun. She leaned lazily in his embrace, eyes narrowed like a coquettish kitten.

“Since we are still waiting for Wabei to arrive, why don’t you go visit the Beast Deity first? You can ask about the Heart of the Desert and also inquire about that person—otherwise Wabei would nag at you nonstop when he is here.”

Gu Mengmeng mulled over Elvis’ suggestion, agreeing that it was very logical.

She had received some fatherly care and concern from the Beast Deity when she was upset over Oakley’s matter. So she shouldn’t visit the Beast Deity only when she had a favor to ask. But somehow, she always ended up calling on him only when she needed help. It was like every time she headed home to show some filial piety, it was just to ask for “pocket money”.

Gu Mengmeng gave a low laugh as she shook her head slowly.

“What are you laughing about?” Elvis asked softly.

Gu Mengmeng replied, “I was reprimanded by my father the previous time.”

“The Beast Deity…” Elvis frowned. Another opponent whom he could not defeat, and could not even reach.

He knew Xiao Meng was suffering but he could not even find a way to help her vent her frustrations.

Struck by a deep sense of helplessness, Elvis hugged Gu Mengmeng closer. “I am sorry. I have let you suffer.”

Gu Mengmeng shook her head with a smile. “Being reprimanded by my own father is not much of a suffering. In my world, we have a saying that goes “spare the rod and spoil the child”. My father was already very kind, only giving me a short scolding. Previously, I had a schoolmate who accepted the love confession of a boy from the same cla.s.s. Her mother found out and rushed to the campus to slap her own daughter right in front of everyone. She then pulled her by the hair to the principle’s office and transferred schools on the spot. They left town that very night and even changed telephone numbers. There was no way to communicate with them. It was like they had disappeared from the face of the earth.”

“That male… didn’t put up a fight?” Elvis once again felt that the males in that world were rather cowardly and useless.

Gu Mengmeng shook her head. “Fight? After that girl was taken away by her mother, that boy continued joking with the other guys like nothing major had happened. He said the girl’s mother was too conservative—her daughter was already in her second year of high school and she still acted like any romantic inklings eroded the morals. That a girl’s chast.i.ty still had to be preserved like it was in the Qing dynasty? He even claimed that luckily he was just fooling around, otherwise he would be doomed to have taken on such a fierce mother-in-law… tsk, anyway he was an utter sc.u.mbag. I really felt that my schoolmate had suffered for nothing.”
