$328 I'm Afraid I'll Lose You

"We won't go back to the stone fort. It's too far." Elvis said to Leia: "Find a cave nearby. If there's no suitable one, dig one. We'll live by the stream in the future."

Gu Mengmeng shouted: "Hey, wait a minute. Why do we have to live by the stream? My son is still in the stone fort."

"We'll go back and pick them up after we settle down." Elvis said as he walked towards the shore with Gu Mengmeng in his arms.

They came out in a hurry and didn't bring animal skins. Elvis had to wrap Gu Mengmeng tightly with his tail to prevent her from getting sick after getting into the water.

Gu Mengmeng hadn't seen Elvis so angry with her for a long time, and she was a little confused.

Isn't it just a nosebleed? It's not like she's cheating on you, so why should you be so mean to her?

"That...husband, why are you angry?" Gu Mengmeng asked cautiously.

Elvis stopped and looked at Gu Mengmeng with a complicated and deep gaze. He said hoarsely, "I'm not angry, I'm afraid..."

Gu Mengmeng then set her eyes on Ke'er who had been following them. After thinking about it for a while, she felt that it was unlikely, but she still asked tentatively, "Are you afraid of Ke'er?"

"Him? Ha..." Elvis laughed contemptuously as an answer.

Gu Mengmeng thought so too. Elvis dared to fight Ke'er face to face when he was at level 3, let alone now.

But...

"Then what are you afraid of? Why do you live by the stream?" Gu Mengmeng really couldn't understand.

Elvis's dark blue eyes seemed to contain a bottomless black hole, and the vortex wrapped her in it. His voice was very soft, but every word fell on Gu Mengmeng's heart: "You are bleeding, I'm afraid I will lose you."

Bleeding?

Gu Mengmeng thought about it and understood. She asked with a bit of a smile: "Because I have a nosebleed, do you think I'm going to die?"

"Xiao Meng!" Elvis yelled at her seriously for the first time. Although it was only two words, it was just her name, but it was the most serious thing he had said to her.

But Gu Mengmeng was not afraid, but laughed out loud. She put her arms around Elvis' neck and whispered: "Silly husband, I have a nosebleed because we have been eating barbecue too frequently recently. In addition, you are afraid that I will be cold at night, so you always make a fire in the room and roast me, that's all. My body is very good, I won't die, don't be afraid."

Elvis was skeptical about Gu Mengmeng's explanation.

They eat and live with Gu Mengmeng, why didn't he, Leia, or even the three little ones have nosebleeds, but only Gu Mengmeng did?

Gu Mengmeng seemed to have seen through Elvis's thoughts and said, "You are males, so you must be more tolerant than me. I am so delicate, don't you think so~"

The word delicate actually contains self-deprecation in Gu Mengmeng's words, mainly to ease the atmosphere and make Elvis and Leia happy.

However, when Elvis and Leia thought seriously and nodded carefully to express their agreement, Gu Mengmeng blushed instead.

She said she was delicate... Haha, I'm afraid she won't have this face in the future.

Elvis hugged Gu Mengmeng tightly in his arms, but he still seemed to be worried and insisted, "Stay by the stream for a few days. I will take you back to the stone fort when I am sure you are okay."

Leia reconsidered and added, "In the future, barbecue will be banned from the menu, and the method of keeping warm will be that Elvis and I will hold you together."
