Chapter 1440: This Bird Man Refused To Act According To Script
So you should smile at me before letting me fall into your trap and putting into action all the things you said earlier… you should not be revealing all that is at stake, placing me on my guard.
Gregory didn’t pull Gu Mengmeng into his arms but just took one step forward, narrowing the distance between them.
You are really forcing me into a dilemma like this. I still hoped to enjoy some warmth and gentleness from you during the time you are using me. I don’t care how short-lived or fake it is. But now it appears you have no intention of bluffing me at all. You… don’t even plan to use me. You claim to be just laying down all your cards on the table for me, but you are actually trying to scare me off, right?

Gu Mengmeng was speechless. She quietly took a small step backward.
She knew that if she directly rejected him, Gregory would never listen to her listing all the pros and cons. That was why she had pretended to be willing to accept him, so that he would patiently hear her out.
She thought that after listening to her speech, he would scold Gu Mengmeng
bitch
before turning to leave without even a backward glance. Who knew this bird man would refuse to act according to script.

I may not come down from the mountains often but I am not dumb.
At Gu Mengmeng’s retreat, Gregory took one big step forward to further narrow the gap between them. They were nearly sticking to each other now.
That supposedly cruel scenario you described earlier—isn’t that the most common situation in every family? Compared to those males who never even got the chance to tell their female their own names, at least you remember me, right?

Gu Mengmeng was suddenly speechless.
Apart from Sandy and her, the partnering situation in the Beast World was indeed as Gregory described.
Males might be easily accepted into the family but then forgotten thereafter. Apart from the first partner and a few specially favored ones, most females had no idea how many other partners they had. Like Nina and Ellie, they really didn’t even know the names of their own partners.

From the male’s perspective, sacrificing everything for the female is a matter of course. You talked about reward and requite… it will be my good fortune to get reciprocated, and my own fate if not.
Looping one arm around Gu Mengmeng’s waist, Gregory maintained an aloof expression as he looked at her.
You don’t need to come close to me and don’t need to remain at the same spot to wait for me. If you retreat, I will come forward… it doesn’t matter how far a distance you put between us. It doesn’t matter if there’s a deep ravine or the entire Milky Way between us. I will overcome the distance and the obstacles. It is a type of bliss to be able to feel jealousy and pain over a beloved female.

After all, he didn’t even have the right to feel jealous now.

Gu Mengmeng, I like you. Partner, beast pet, guardian beast or even food. I don’t mind.
Gregory plucked a feather from his ear and presented it to Gu Mengmeng.
So are you willing to accept me as a member of your family?

Gu Mengmeng was still hesitating when there was an earth-shattering crash.
Before Gu Mengmeng could react, Auretin had thrown aside the hunted game in his hands and attacked Gregory.
Dumbfounded, Gu Mengmeng stared at the two of them fighting. But Lea just waved his tail and said,
If he wishes to be our family’s guardian beast, he must first show us his capabilities.

Gu Mengmeng pointed at Auretin as she asked Lea,
This…

Lea grinned.
Oh, when Auretin came back, he asked me what was Gregory doing, so I told him Gregory was trying to snatch his rice bowl.
