Beauty and the Beast: Wolf Hubby XOXO (Web Novel)
chapter-427

Auretin got giddy from Gu Mengmeng’s smile.

In his memory, there had never been a female who smiled at him like that.

When he was small and weak, females used to banish him with displeased expressions, not allowing him to get near their territories.

Then, as he gradually got stronger, females started to feel not as displeased towards him. When he reached his peak at third-level, females from every tribe started to smile at him, then requesting to mate. However, he felt that such smiles were disgusting and made him very uncomfortable, so he would usually walk away before even saying a word of rejection.

Later on, he did not know why either, but more and more females started to express their goodwill towards him. It was as if those that had dared to confess were first beauties from each tribe.

Or perhaps… they were really very pretty? Auretin even started to question his sexual preferences, or else why would he only feel annoyed and disgusted when so many females, who are heavily sought after by other males, confess to him? Luckily, the good thing was, he was not only annoyed by females, but by males too…

Even so, he still goes to the beauty pageant in Sauder annually. He did not want to mate, nor join any tribe, he only… wanted to meet someone.

He did not know what meaning there was in his action either, perhaps he only wanted to know if he was a weird one, and that there are other people in this world who had a similar experience and background as him, yet had hacked through brambles and thorns against all odds to stand at the peak of the world.

He started to subconsciously imitate that person’s actions and ways of handling things. He had thought he would always remain this way.

He never thought that a change would happen that quickly.

Suddenly, one day, it was as if the ice in that person’s body had melted into water, nourishing his dry soul. There were no longer coldness and indifference in his eyes, the curvature of his lips was no longer only killing and bloodthirsty, his world was no longer only filled with destruction and subversion…

Auretin really wanted to know, how did the man once cold as ice turn into this?

Looking up, Auretin fixed his eyes on Gu Mengmeng’s smile, and it was as if… he found the answer.

“Stare any longer and I would gouge your eyes out.” Lea bore a grudge against him for calling him “nasty”. With a sweep of his tail, he brought Gu Mengmeng back into his arms, “Mengmeng, let’s not bother with him, we’ll eat our meat.”

Gu Mengmeng laughed out loud, and nested in Elvis’ arms to poke fun at Lea. Lea was not angry, yet he purposefully delivered a piece of meat to Gu Mengmeng’s lips “nastily”. Gu Mengmeng opened her mouth, but he took back the meat and raised his chin, “THIS is nasty~”

The three of them roared in laughter while Auretin sat there watching while holding the empty bowl. It was as if he was watching a movie with a warm plot, yet he did not dare to insert himself within.

Gu Mengmeng noticed Auretin in a daze, so she smiled and called out to him, “If you are not used to eating chilli, then go get some water and wash the cooked meat inside before eating so it wouldn’t be as spicy.”

However, Auretin did not do so, only stiffly picking up his chopsticks, picking up a few large pieces of meat and delivering them straight into his mouth. They were so hot blisters could form, yet it was as if he did not know pain, chewing determinedly, then swallowing…

Gu Mengmeng laughed helplessly, “It is just steamboat, why are you treating it like a life or death matter?”

Auretin looked at Gu Mengmeng, then swallowed the meat in his mouth before replying expressionlessly, “Delicious.”
