Barete stared at Gu Mengmeng's eyes, his resolute face filled with strict determination, "I want to protect you."
Thump, Gu Mengmeng's maiden heart was tugged on brutally by this not-so-gentle sentence of Barete.
How could she forget? Mr Holy said before that if one avoided the Deity's Punishment, the rage of the Beast Deity would be vented on his female.
Even though Barete and her only knew each other's name and nothing else, but this fellow was so persistent in affirming her as his partner and was also willing to risk his life for her.
A touching relationship was not about him being unafraid of everything. It was instead about him being so clearly afraid of everything but because he needed to protect you, he did not shrink back.
The corners of Gu Mengmeng's mouth curved upwards unknowingly. Barete was indeed a tough man, she was charmed by him!
