Chapter 1474: You Are Brighter Than The Sun

“Is your mood better?” Gregory asked.

Gu Mengmeng nodded and stood up from Gregory’s arms. She walked into the cave as she stretched, while saying, “Previously when I had a part-time job, I had to wake up very early in the morning and that was all because I had no choice at that time. So I had a wish that when I am riched in the future, I would sleep until I can wake up naturally, without having to wake up early anymore. After that, I did not become rich but with Elvis and Lea, my wish of sleeping until anytime I wanted came true with the t.i.tle of Messenger of the Beast Deity. Anyone who wake me up would be scolded by me.”

As Gu Mengmeng spoke, she had already came to sit by the fire. Using the beast skin to wrap herself and sitting by the fire to warm herself, she hugged her knees and lightly swayed her body. Her smile was filled with sweet memories as she recalled the past, then she continued, “Do you know something? Elvis and Lea know that I have a temper from waking up, so they never woke me up. There was a time when a female beast from the tribe was making a din outside my door in the early morning and disrupted my self, so I went out, enraged, and beat her to a pulp… Both of them do not hit females, but they beat up all the males in her family and from then on, no one dared to ever disrupt my sleep.”

Gregory had already walked to Gu Mengmeng’s side. He added four to five ice cups into the pot, so that it would boil to form water for Gu Mengmeng to wash up and drink.

While Gu Mengmeng watched, she said, “But it is an exception today, the sunrise was really too beautiful. Seeing the sun gradually light up the horizon, it was too breathtaking for me to even step away, moreover who can stop the dawn break? My father had always told me that the previous messenger of the beast deity left behind something in the Beast World, called faith, and what I want to bring to the Beast World is something called hope. But I do not know what hope is, could it be that enjoying life with my partners every day is called hope? I don’t think so… Today, it was as though all my doubts have cleared. I am not the sun, I do not have light rays, but… my existence itself is hope.”

Gregory did not disrupt her. He liked to listen to her speak, anything would do.

Her voice was like the most gorgeous instrument and the most pleasing melody.

No matter how much she was rambled, he would listen seriously to every word she said.

Despite those past events being unrelated to him, so long as it was linked to her, he was interested.

“Regardless of the difficulties or pain that everyone encounter, even if they think they cannot endure anymore, they would think to themselves at that time, never mind, we still have the messenger of the beast deity. No matter how huge the obstacle is, we call pull through, because she will definitely save us. It is an obstacle because it is tough but it will pa.s.s. After pa.s.sing through the most difficult times, everything would be better. Even if I do not appear, they would give the credit to me, saying that the messenger of the beast deity gave them hope, allowing them to survive these ordeal. Is it shameless for me to be saying this? As though I am overestimating myself.”

Gregory scooped out the warm water from the pot and pa.s.sed to Gu Mengmeng to wash up. As he watched her rinse her mouth, he said, “Don’t belittle yourself.”

After receiving the ice cup from Gu Mengmeng’s hand, he pat her back to make her spit out the water from her mouth and said gently, “In my eyes, you are brighter than the sun, with the most dazzling presence. So long as I have you, I will know where I should go.”
