Elvis gently tidied up the mess in detail, wrapping Gu Mengmeng up in a beast skin. Then, he made the flame at the fireplace bigger before turning to exit the stone house.
Lea had long since come back and was squatting by the entrance the whole time.
Elvis glanced at him and asked, "Why did you become like that?"
Lea smirked and said, "It's alright, I was just testing Auretin's skills."
Elvis sighed and sat down cross-legged next to Lea. He did not look at him as he continued speaking, "What's the point of holding it in if you're feeling upset internally? If you said it out loud...Xiao Meng would probably..."
"Don't implicate her in. The less she knows about it, the better it is for her." Lea interrupted Elvis and said, "I just want her to change her mind and like me, not...pity me."
