Chapter 1007: Let’s Discuss The Terms

Gu Mengmeng felt as if her heart had dropped into her stomach . She then gradually relaxed and stood up from Elvis’ arms . She slowly walked over to Chixuan’s side . She didn’t say a word, but just quietly accompanied him .

They sat all the way until deep into night, and the moon was glowing in the sky .

Chixuan stood up . He didn’t say anything but just circled past Gu Mengmeng and returned to the cave . He laid down on the bed in the exact same position and closed his eyes, obviously going back to sleep .

Gu Mengmeng also wanted to stand up but her legs had gone numb after sitting for so long .

Her whole body tilted to the side as she tried to get up . Fortunately, Elvis had fast reflexes and immediately caught her securely in his arms .

“Don’t worry . Things will get better . ”

Now that things have reached this stage, Gu Mengmeng had no choice but to believe Elvis .

For the next ten days, Chixuan got up every morning to sit at the door without moving the entire day . Hede and the other two brothers would bring food to him . Chixuan would eat whatever that was placed before him, but if no one brought food to him, he would just go without eating anything . Then he would continue sitting until midnight, before returning to his bed to sleep . He ignored everyone and didn’t speak a single word .

Gu Mengmeng was dismayed but had no solution . So as to not let Gu Mengmeng worry, Elvis and Lea tried all sorts of gentle persuasion and hard threats on Chixuan behind her back . But that fellow was completely unmoved . Whether it was Elvis’ display of physical dominance or Lea’s crafty tongue—nothing could make Chixuan say a single word . He didn’t even exhibit the slightest hint of expression .

Until the day Cole came .

It was by Gu Mengmeng’s tacit consent that he was able to come .

Otherwise, he would never be able to bypass Wabei .

Cole stood before Chixuan . He glanced at him and said in a mild tone, “Little Xuan . ”

Chixuan lifted his head in a daze and met Cole’s gaze with empty eyes . His expression remained wooden, but his brows furrowed slightly .

He slowly got up and walked over to face Cole . After a long time, he turned back to the cave and wordlessly laid down on the bed to sleep .

Cole stood at the door and looked at Gu Mengmeng . He chuckled . “Ah Gu, I waited 10 days for you . Why didn’t you come see me?”

Gu Mengmeng frowned and kept silent . She just sat beside Chixuan . She held Chixuan’s hand and quietly watched her sleeping son .

Cole gave a light laugh . “Now that Chixuan has already returned to your side, I no longer have anything to threaten you with . You… don’t wish to kill me?”

Gu Mengmeng slowly set down Chixuan’s hand and gently stroked his hair before standing up to walk out of the cave .

Because of their height difference, she had to look up at Cole . She looked extremely haggard after the worries of the past 10 days, and Cole’s brows involuntarily furrowed when he saw her face .

“Do you have a way?” Although it was a question, Gu Mengmeng’s tone implied “let’s discuss the terms . Help me save Chixuan and I will do one thing for you . ”

“Anything?” Cole asked, insinuating that not only could he save Chixuan, he had also already decided on the favor .

Gu Mengmeng took a deep breath . “As long as it doesn’t involve harming my partners, family and friends . Anything else is okay . ”

Cole’s laughter held a confidence that showed this was just as he expected . He seemed to have already predicted that this scenario would happen . “What about harming yourself, will that be okay?”
