Chapter 144: I Have Always Been Here
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
As Lea was speaking, Elvis walked out from the shade of the trees.
Gu ngng lowered her head like a child that had done sothing wrong, not daring to look into Elvis’ eyes.
She already knew that it was a misunderstanding with regard to whether Elvis was going to be her godmother. Yet, why was she still afraid to face him?
Gu ngng did not wish to think into it, neither did she dare to, and could only look down while wringing her fingers.
“Change your clothes, wearing wet ones can make you sick easily.” Elvis stretched out his hands and took Gu ngng out of Lea’s arms, then said to him, “Co out once you’ve transford back to your original form, she does not want others to see you like this.”
Lea nodded without question, transforming into a fox and shook off the water on his body. His fur instantly fluffed up, without a trace of being in a sorry plight like a drowned rat. It was as if it took him a second to be blown into place by a blow-dryer.
Sure enough, God treats different people differently after all. Gu ngng recalled how long she would usually have to blow her hair dry, deeply feeling the biasness of God..
But, her boyfriend is truly good-looking. As a human or a beast, he has an attraction that makes you not want to take your eyes off him.
Elvis carried Gu ngng to find a place to shelter from the wind, then started to remove her clothes.
Gu ngng covered her chest, “It’s fine it’s fine, I can change by myself.”
Elvis stared at Gu ngng with a distant gaze for a long while, his hands in mid-air. He finally slowly put down his hands, turning around desolately, “I will look out for you over there. Call when you need help.”
“Oh, alright.” Gu ngng felt a little guilty as she was the one who had flirted with Elvis, not knowing what was going on. From the mont they first t by the lake, everything she had done was sufficient for him to misunderstand. Although she did not an it, now that she knew the concept of love in the beast world was different from that of her own, she had no reason to continue misleading him.
Moreover, since she had already decided to date Lea, she could no longer give Elvis any aningless hope.
Then, Gu ngng yelled while changing into her dress, “Elvis, are you still there?”
“I have always been here.” Elvis replied.
Gu ngng: “Lea confessed to , and I agreed to date him.”
Elvis gave a long pause, before slowly acknowledging with a “Hmm”.
Gu ngng: “Back at where we lived, a female can only be together with a male. Since I have agreed to date Lea, I will not have any other lover...”
Elvis’ voice remained soft, as if he did not care. He then carefully asked: “Then... what about Yoo Sijin?”
Gu ngng smiled while shaking her head helplessly: “Is that joke still not over? I thought I have already told you guys, that is only a story, there is no such person. Even if there is, his female is Kang Moyeon, not Gu ngng.”
Silence, another long silence.
It was only until Gu ngng almost thought that Elvis was gone when he asked, “Then... what about ?”
This ti round, it was Gu ngng’s turn to not know what to do. Her hand that was tying her shoulder strap suddenly halted, not knowing how to answer to that.
It was as if ti stopped at that mont, as Elvis’”What about ?” replayed endlessly in her head. It was rely a simple sentence ford by 3 words, yet... she did not know how to reply.
Elvis turned around and walked over from behind the rock, taking the straps from Gu ngng’s hands and tying them up for her while saying “Since you are now at Saint Nazaire, you only have to follow the rules here.”
Gu ngng still did not say anything, only looking up at Elvis’ back lit face.
Elvis’ facial features were shrouded in the sun, unable to be deciphered, and Gu ngng could not guess what kind of expression he had. She could only hear him say: “But you will set the rules here.”
