Beauty and the Beast: Wolf Hubby XOXO

Chixuan finally closed his eyes after getting a satisfactory answer.

Gu Mengmeng felt a reflexive sense of worry as Chixuan shut his eyes. He had already been in a coma for so long. How long would he be sleeping for again?

Cole held Gu Mengmeng’s hand gently. “Don’t worry, he will be fine.”

Gu Mengmeng shot a scornful look at Cole, full of disgust and guardedness. She tried to shake off his hand to no avail, and instead ended up jolting Chixuan, who was lying on her knee. The wolf pup squeezed his eyes and whimpered in pain.

Cole’s smile deepened as Gu Mengmeng gave up struggling. He continued. “In your eyes, I am probably the world’s biggest villain, right?”

Gu Mengmeng refused to answer but just gently wiped the blood off the side of Chixuan’s lips. There were no visible external wounds, but he must have suffered internal damage. Otherwise, why would he vomit blood?

Cole was unperturbed by Gu Mengmeng’s lack of response. He just continued. “You are the Messenger of the Beast Deity, representing the brightest and most righteous power in this world; while I am the leader of the stray beasts, representing the darkest and most evil side. Since the two of us don’t wish for anything happen to Little Xuan, he will definitely be alright, isn’t that so?”

Gu Mengmeng said with cold disdain, “You don’t wish for anything to happen to him, but made him your human shield? Don’t take me for a fool. Don’t you dare deny knowing that Chixuan would rush out to protect you, and so you purposely didn’t duck when Elvis attacked you?”

Cole chuckled. “If I said I didn’t duck as I wanted you to see him beat me… would you believe it?”

“No way,” Gu Mengmeng replied.

Cole lowered his head so that one could not see his expression. He just said mildly, “Ah Gu… I thought that after you met Peter and Natalie, you would at least understand me a little better…”

Gu Mengmeng frowned as she stared at Cole like he was an “idiot”.

Cole exhaled and gave a self-mocking smile. “Never mind, I know you don’t like hearing things about me. I won’t bother you any more. Just stay by Little Xuan’s side, he has not seen you for a long time. Although he didn’t say so… I know he missed you a lot.”

Gu Mengmeng didn’t reply and Cole didn’t say anything further. The two of them sat quietly until the doors were pushed open and Dylan walked in with a steady gait. Wordlessly, he glanced at Cole before offering a polite bow to Gu Mengmeng. He then immediately went over to Chixuan and started treating him.

Dylan’s attitude towards Cole surprised Gu Mengmeng.

She thought that with Cole’s petty character—he was someone who would seek vengeance for the slightest grievance—Dylan would be the first to suffer from his return.

After all, it was Dylan who had helped Gu Mengmeng and Lea drag Cole down from his high position as the tribe leader to his current stray beast status, and losing one arm and tail in the process.

So it was an unexpected sight to see them meet up again in such a civilized manner.

Cole stood beside Gu Mengmeng and chuckled. “Are you surprised I didn’t kill him?”

Gu Mengmeng didn’t agree or deny it. She just kept her eyes on Chixuan, her whole heart was being occupied by this son of hers.

Cole watched Gu Mengmeng quietly out of the corner of his eye. “The Kiss of the Ocean. Did you get it?”

Gu Mengmeng answered with a “mmm”, unwilling to speak more to Cole.

Since he already knew she had met Peter and Natalie, would he not know that she had retrieved the Kiss of the Ocean? Asking even though he already knew the answer. A complete waste of her breath.
