Beauty and the Beast: Wolf Hubby XOXO Chapter 1370 - I Will Be The Scapegoat

Chapter 1370: I Will Be The Scapegoat

Cole smiled bitterly at Gu Mengmeng’s expression. He stroked his own hair helplessly. “Little Xuan was right after all… you would never believe my words. Little Xuan is carrying out the same tricks I previously used on you and using them better and more viciously… it seems like the student has surpassed the teacher. Never mind, I will be the scapegoat then. Just take it that I snatched the Soul of the Forest and forced him to the brink of danger. However, now that I have him secured, will this negate my crimes?”
“Give me back my son.” Gu Mengmeng stated coldly.
Cole smiled. “Ah Gu, are you able to take care of them if I return them all to you? I heard that you are going to the Motou mountain range to get the Love of the Sky during the drought season. Thereafter, you are going to bear some offspring for my ninth brother. With such a hectic schedule, do you still have time to take care of Little Xuan?”
Gu Mengmeng replied with a stony face, “Is that any of your business?”
Cole remained kneeling as he gazed up at Gu Mengmeng. “Ah Gu, of course I must protect your weak spot so that no one can threaten you with it.”
Gu Mengmeng said, “In the entire Beast World, only you would dare to use my son against me.”
Cole nodded with a smile, looking as honored as if he had been awarded with the Best Citizen prize. “Others may make use of your weak spot to take advantage of you or harm you. But for me, I am using him to guide you onto the correct path.”
Gu Mengmeng replied, “You and I hold different goals and your so-called correct path is definitely not the one I want to head down.”
With that, Gu Mengmeng handed Lea over to Elvis before walking to Cole’s side. She squatted down and eyed him. “You had the guts to wait for me here because you feel you are already a Beast King and have no need to fear me anymore, right?”
Cole kept quiet as he gazed joyfully at Gu Mengmeng. This was one of the rare times when she had approached him on her own accord.
Gu Mengmeng continued. “But don’t you forget. Even though you are a Beast King, you are still a stray beast. And it just happens that I somehow became the Stray Beast King. So you should be afraid of me… you should have hidden in the gutters like before. You should have fled the moment you detected my scent in the air. That way, you might have preserved your cheap, little life. Because I am not someone you can afford to provoke.”
At that, Gu Mengmeng drove her fingers into Cole’s right chest, exactly where she had previously dug a deep indentation. Gu Mengmeng knew the Soul of the Forest was there.
Her palm entered Cole’s chest and rummaged around the blood and flesh until she felt the Soul of the Forest. Gu Mengmeng didn’t pull it out but just smiled coldly. “Give me back my son and I will let you continue being a Beast King. Otherwise… ha, I wonder what will happen to a person who fell off his high pedestal?”
“Alright, I will return him to you.” Cole withstood the intense pain as he maintained his heinous smile at Gu Mengmeng.
Gu Mengmeng retrieved her hand before walking back to Lea’s side. She turned and looked scornfully at Cole. “Also, I don’t like others flaunting their Beast King status in front of my men. Don’t forget that you still exist beneath my feet.”
Cole understood Gu Mengmeng’s meaning. He gave a faint smile at Lea, after which Lea felt his strength gradually return to his body. He wriggled his wrists before gently tugging at Gu Mengmeng’s forearm, pulling her into his lap.
