Chapter 1267: He Would Never See Her Again After 10 More Days
After washing the grapes, Elvis ordered the group to carry them back to the stone castle. He then handed Gu ngng over to Lea, while he went to the forest to find a suitable tree to make wooden barrels to store the wine.
Lea maintained a faint smile throughout the entire journey back. He ignored Gregory’s lingering looks at Gu ngng. Exhibiting no signs of jealousy, it was as if Lea completely did not care.
The stone castle housed two Beast Kings and the Ninth Highness, so outsiders were naturally not allowed to enter at will. Therefore, apart from those helping to carry the grapes back, the rest of the tribe returned to their own hos after washing the grapes.
Only Gu ngng, Lea, Gregory, Auretin and Sandy’s family were at the stone castle.
Gu ngng filled two large basins with grapes. She gave one to Sandy for her to bring back to eat. For the other one, she asked Lea to keep for their own consumption.
Gu ngng then asked the small snakes to crush the remaining grapes to pulp, like they did last year.
Sandy was very curious about this process and showered Gu ngng with questions, to which Gu ngng answered them all patiently.
Only when Elvis and so other n returned with the newly-created wooden barrels and the temporary seals for the stone basins, did Sandy finally settle down. She tugged at Gu ngng. “Eh, that fellow is looking at you all funny.”
Gu ngng turned to look and Gregory instantly shifted his gaze. His movent was very stiff, which made him look rather suspicious. Nonetheless, Gu ngng didn’t think much of it. After all, he had declared right from the start that he didn’t fancy her. He wouldn’t be slapping himself in the face like that now, would he?
Sandy clicked her tongue when she saw that Gu ngng was not interested. She then went to poke at Lea. “Eh, that bird beast is powerful and good-looking. He is on a completely different level from you and Elvis. If Gu ngng accepts him, you might lose your most favored status.”
Lea just smiled nonchalantly. “What can I do? Our ngng is so exceptional that it is inevitable that others will fall in love with her on first sight. If I have to guard against every one of them, then the whole world would beco my love rival.”
Sandy raised one brow. Did Lea get slamd in the head? Why had his personality suddenly changed? Wasn’t he always treating her as a love rival and threatening her?
What did he say the previous ti? That she should be thankful she was a female or he would have definitely killed her in case she tried to snatch over Gu ngng’s affections.
Why was he pretending to be so magnanimous now?
Lea seed to have seen through Sandy’s thoughts. “Anyway, Gregory is only staying here for a month, and will be returning to the Motou mountains after that. Even if he mates with ngng now, he can only be her lover for about 10 more days... as for , I can bear anything as long as ngng is happy. So if ngng wishes to accept him, I can endure those 10 days.”
Gregory clenched his fists at Lea’s words.
His heart constricted unbearably, but he could not fathom why.
He had set down the deadline himself, to leave in 10 days ti.
He was the leader of the vulture tribe and had only co down to fulfill the marriage contract. But the Heart of the Desert now resided in the body of a male, and he could not fulfill the contract anymore. There was no longer any reason for him to stay on.
He had to return to the Motou mountains to continue protecting the sacred grounds of the vulture tribe.
He would probably never ever descend the mountains again.
So, he would never see her again after 10 more days?
That radiant her.
That assertive her.
10 more days...
And then he would never see her again?
Why was he feeling so uncomfortable all over?
Gregory’s brows were deeply furrowed. He could not explain this bizarre phenonon happening to his body.
Perhaps he had been down from the mountains for too long, and was not used to this type of environnt.
10 days.
He could return in 10 days.
Everything would be fine after he returned... right?
