Chapter 1396: Impossible, I Already Made It Very Clear.

“My decree is my own. Whoever creates trouble for you deserves to be beaten up.” Gu Mengmeng stated firmly. “Moreover, where in the world is there a rule that says that you must always accept a love confession? Since he dared to come forward to do so, he must have been mentally prepared to challenge your partners. Just take it that you sent Collin or Hodgson to accept his challenge. Who can he blame if he loses?”
Sandy poked Gu Mengmeng’s head. “How many years have you been in the Beast World? Are you still unclear of its rules? You are right in saying that a male has to challenge the current partners of a female he is wooing, but the female also has the right to choose, okay?”
Gu Mengmeng blinked in confusion at Sandy.
Sandy sighed. “Don’t tell me that since accepting Elvis and Lea as your partners, no other male has confessed his love for you.”
Gu Mengmeng thought about it before nodding. “Yes, there were about two or three?”
Sandy continued. “What did the two of them say when those males confessed?”
Gu Mengmeng glanced sideways at Elvis and Lea as she pondered. She shook her head. “I forgot. It seems like I will usually just reject them directly.”
Lea took one step forward and glared at Daji, who very wisely jumped off from Gu Mengmeng’s arms. Lea then pulled Gu Mengmeng into his embrace and pinched her cheek. “You are so heartless. You don’t even know how much effort Elvis and I put in to fend off those silly admirers of yours? Mmm? When that second-level tiger in Zacharias confessed to you, did you reject him? And that witch doctor in Saint Nazaire…”
“I did reject them!” Gu Mengmeng insisted righteously. “I rejected them all when they confessed their love for me.”
“To a male, your way of refusal is not one at all. It is only a hint to test their sincerity and determination.” Lea shook his head helplessly as he gave a bitter smile.
Gu Mengmeng thought about it. “Impossible. I already made it very clear.”
Lea held onto Gu Mengmeng’s cheeks and swayed her face side to side. “Your gentle tone and roundabout choice of words—no way does it sound like a rejection. No male would give up their pursuit of you after hearing your kind of rejection.”
“Huh?” Gu Mengmeng felt she had really made herself very clear.
But to be honest, it was truly a burden to have to reject someone. Especially in the Beast World, where a confession meant that the male was offering you a lifetime of love and care, whereas a confession by the men in the present world included all sorts of disclaimers. Faced with such a pure-hearted and self-sacrificing confession, Gu Mengmeng really could not bear to speak too harshly.
Blinking, Gu Mengmeng asked Lea. “But they no longer pestered me after I rejected them.”
Lea laughed in exasperation. “Did you really think they were chased off by your few gentle words?”
Gu Mengmeng nodded profoundly. “What if not so?”
Placing Gu Mengmeng in front of him, he stared right into her eyes with a chilly smirk. “If you wish to partner my Mengmeng, you must first challenge her partners. Do you wish to challenge me or him?”
Lea tilted his head and Elvis came over to stand behind him with a black face and intense murderous aura.
Gu Mengmeng shivered. “Oh, so they didn’t dare to continue pestering me because they were scared off by you two?!”
