Chapter 812: Actually I Really Don’t Need That
After hearing Gu ngng’s narration, Elvis’ face remained unmarked by emotion, even his inner heart was a sea of calm.
His desire for kinship had long been eradicated in those pits.
Now that he suddenly had a mother who had lived on in sha and suffering for his sake, the only reaction he had was: Actually I really don’t need that.
Slowly exhaling, Elvis took over the cup of water brought over by Lea and fed so water to Gu ngng. Seeing her lips moistened, his brows relaxed and he chuckled.
“Xiao ng, so what do you hope for to do?” Elvis asked in a soft voice.
Gu ngng was montarily taken aback. She shook her head and gently pressed a fingertip at a spot on Elvis chest, directly over his heart. She said, “I hope that you will follow your heart. Do whatever your heart tells you to do.”
Elvis covered Gu ngng’s little hand and held it tight to his chest. Her soft palm pressed against his left ribs.
He stated in a low, raspy voice, every word dropping straight down upon Gu ngng’s heart. “At this spot, there is only you. There is nothing else.”
Gu ngng blushed. She gazed directly into Elvis’ eyes, as if she was being sucked in.
“Honestly, I really don’t care what happens to them. I think they don’t need my forgiveness either. But, if I can make you feel better by forgiving them, then I will do so.”
Gu ngng lowered her head. She had no idea what she was feeling.
Subconsciously, she still hoped that Elvis could forgive his own parents. Because only then would he be able to achieve absolution from that nightmare. But if he was only forgiving them because of her... there would be no aning to it?
Sighing, Gu ngng raised her head. “Let’s not talk about forgiveness for the mont. The important thing now is how to save Natalie.”
“Alright, we will think of a solution to save her.” Elvis always gave in to Gu ngng. Whatever she wanted to do, no matter how difficult, he would accompany her.
Gu ngng didn’t say another word but just quietly leaned against Elvis’ chest, refusing to budge.
Elvis gladly accepted her reliance. But to save Natalie, they had to stay here for the ti being.
Exchanging a quiet look with Lea, they silently agreed to get up and head back.
Elvis was a forr mber of this stray beast tribe, and this was their original base. In the years since, the stray beasts had not moved and no proper tribe had dared to co and challenge this territory. As a result, the original caves were still more or less preserved.
However, the cave which Elvis used to stay in had changed owners several tis. Currently, there was only a second-level leopard living there. Although it looked vicious and savage, it was also very sensible. Seeing that the incoming folks were way beyond its own capabilities, it fled with its tail between its legs.
Elvis and Lea dug at the cave to make it deeper and more spacious. After all, they had to stay here for the ti being, and they couldn’t let Gu ngng suffer.
Gu ngng sat at the entrance of the cave and watched as her two n toiled. Her heart grew warm at the sight.
They had endured so many cruel hardships but grew into such kind and gentle n. This in itself was sothing that was worth celebrating.
“It’s all stray beasts here. Don’t go through into heat as and when you like. If your slutty fox mates here with you... tsk, don’t go looking for trouble,” Ian said as he sat down beside Gu ngng.
