No Lack Of Wings Over Here

"Although you only met him once, you can't possibly not have noticed his motives and desire for Mengmeng?" Lea shook his head with a chuckle. "Let's take a step back.

Gregory tightened his fists as he instinctively avoided Lea's eyes.

Lea waved his tail and mercilessly burst Gregory's hopes. "As someone who has been through it, I can tell you that my Mengmeng does not respond well to threats, but has to be coaxed. No plan and scheme is as good as wholeheartedly wanting the best for her. As for what that crippled fox promised you, I can guarantee… he cannot accomplish it. In this whole world, there is no one who can do it."
