Beauty and the Beast: Wolf Hubby XOXO (Web Novel) - Chapter 99: Self-Harming Is the Most Foolish Act

“You have secrets in your heart?” Lea stared at Gu Mengmeng’s face that were getting increasingly red from him approaching, with a slight bit of warmth hidden in his smile. If one did not look closely, it would have felt the same as other times, but the warm aura around him was not a lie.

“No… nope.” Gu Mengmeng denied flatly.

Lea did not insist, but put her small hands against his left chest, where his heart was at, and lightly pulled her waist towards himself. Gu Mengmeng was then pressing against his chest.

“I’ll let you touch me back, so don’t get angry, alright?”

As though getting electrocuted, Gu Mengmeng immediately wanted to take back her hands, but Lea did not allow her to. He covered her hands with his and pressed them against his heart. With a tilted head and gentleness in his eyes, he asked, “There is a secret in my heart, if I dissect it out for you, will you stop being angry at me?”

“Huh?” Gu Mengmeng’s thick eyelashes fluttered and looked at Lea, confused.

“We have promised.” Lea smiled, before revealing his sharp claws right in front of Gu Mengmeng and cut against the edge of Gu Mengmeng’s hands into his flesh, inch by inch.

“What are you doing!” The scarlet red blood trickled down from Lea’s fingertips. Gu Mengmeng was stunned for a second, but immediately broke free of Lea’s grip on her hands forcefully, before holding his wrist that were turned into sharp claws to stop him from hurting himself. Gu Mengmeng felt an immense anger, she glared at him with eyes wide open and said, “Self-harming is the most foolish act!”

“But… it is also the most effective.” Lea withdrew his nails and tightened his arms, Gu Mengmeng who was holding on to his wrists then flew into his arms. Lea hugged Gu Mengmeng tightly, using the force like he was grinding her into his body, as though this was the only way to prove her existence.

“You feel heartache, am I right?” Lea asked with a bit of gratefulness and palpitation with the smile in his eyes.

The injury just now was merely a scratch to his fur, which would heal even before the sun sets, but such a small wound could result in such a big reaction from her…

Although self-harming was foolish, it was…. worthy.

“Yes, I felt heartache!” Gu Mengmeng’s mouth twitched and pressed onto Lea’s wound heartlessly. Half of her fingertip disappeared into the flesh and the warmth of blood from it burned Gu Mengmeng’s heart. “Aren’t you just bullying me because I will feel heartache for you? I am telling you, anyone that makes me sad will not have a happy ending!”

“Urgh…” Lea curved his back and his forehead was filled with tiny droplets of sweat, but his eyes still looked at Gu Mengmeng affectionately and did not leave her face for a single moment.

Seeing that Lea was in huge pain, she quickly withdrew the hand that were pretending to be fierce, but her wrist was firmly grabbed by Lea, not letting her escape just like that.

“You haven’t seen the secret yet.” Lea held Gu Mengmeng’s hand and directed her towards his wound, smiling seductively as though the person bleeding was not himself. He said alluringly, “Open my heart and I will show you…. who it belongs to.”

“No no, I don’t want to!” Gu Mengmeng pulled back her hand with all her strength, but how could she beat Lea in terms of strength? Seeing that her finger tip was almost going to touch Lea’s wound, Gu Mengmeng’s eyes were filled with pleas. She said in a sobbing tone, “Please, don’t do this.”
