"Actually, you could have upgraded a long time ago, right?" Gu Mengmeng's little face was pressed against Leia's chest, listening to his heartbeat.
Although it was a question, it was said in a statement tone.
Leia chuckled, not denying it.
Gu Mengmeng continued: "I thought about it many times later. The last time we encountered a stray beast attack, although you were flanked, the opponent was also a level three orc. With the energy you reserved at level three, In that case, you can use the level system to turn the situation around as long as you break through the boundaries, but you seem to rather be injured than to level up... I always found it strange that until last night, those three stray beasts attacked you together without even discussing it. Only then did I understand what you were thinking."
Leia always had an indulgent smile on his face. He never liked others to speculate on his thoughts, especially when his thoughts were seen through. He would resist and immediately force himself to hide his emotions deeper.
But when he was seen through by Gu Mengmeng, he felt a faint sense of excitement and anticipation.
It's like a gift that you carefully wrapped is opened by your loved one, and then just by looking at it, the other person knows how carefully he selected the gift and how carefully he packaged it.
It felt really good to feel that his efforts were seen and cherished, so good that the blood all over his body was flowing warmly, nourishing every cell in his body.
"Well, tell me." Leia coaxed Gu Mengmeng to express more thoughts. He liked to hear her explain her thinking process, because he couldn't get into her brain and see clearly what she looked like when her mind was filled with herself. . Therefore, he cherished every word she explained to him, and even more cherished the smart expression on her face when she talked about topics related to him.
Gu Mengmeng didn't know what kind of mood Leia was looking at her at this moment. He always looked at her affectionately, and she seemed to be used to it.
Just thinking about the reason why Leia refused to upgrade, Gu Mengmeng felt a little distressed. She sighed softly and said: "You don't upgrade just to focus all the danger on yourself when you encounter the situation like yesterday." body, using myself as bait to keep me safe."
My heart trembled.
His cuteness was so sensitive and slender that he felt warm and proud but also a little uneasy.
She is so sensitive, so she can't just accept him stupidly with peace of mind.
Gu Mengmeng raised her head, met Leia's eyes, and said seriously: "You clearly know that I am strong enough now, and you don't need to do this anymore."
"Fool." Leia rubbed Gu Mengmeng's head. The sunlight dappled through the leaves on his face, bringing a lot of warmth to his smile. He took Gu Mengmeng's little hand and put it to his lips and kissed it. , then continued: "No matter how powerful you are, you are still my weakness. If you hurt me at all, you will kill my heart."
"So you would rather be injured or even die than upgrade. Just to turn yourself into the weakest member of the family, so that all enemies will use you as a breakthrough point in their instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and let all dangers come to you. Come on, right?" Gu Mengmeng was a little excited, her eyes were red, and she said stubbornly as if she wanted to cry but not cry, "But have you ever thought about it? My heart will hurt too."
