Gu Mengmeng nodded with a laugh but Lea just snorted. "He has really found a good excuse to join Saint Nazaire. I can't do anything to him now."
Gu Mengmeng shook Lea's arm as she grinned. "Alright now, don't pick a quarrel with a kid. Mmm?"
Lea pinched Gu Mengmeng's face as he gave in.
"When do you intend to begin your trip back?" Gu Mengmeng asked.
Fei Rui smiled. "If the Great Messenger agrees, I will head off now."
"So soon?" Gu Mengmeng was rather surprised. She thought he would at least wait till tomorrow as it was nearly nighttime now.
Fei Rui nodded. "I am going back via the waterways anyway, so it doesn't matter whether the sun is up. Moreover, Melinda is pregnant and I wish to hurry back as soon as possible to accompany her. After all, this is her first pregnancy."
"Melinda is pregnant?!" Gu Mengmeng had a major reaction. She jumped straight up, eyes wide open with shock. Her lips curled up involuntarily.
