Beast World: From Villainess to Cub-Raising Chef novel Chapter 102

Chapter 102: Chapter 102: Flirted With in the Live Stream

Bai Su blinked her big eyes. "Why aren’t you cutting?"

Only then did Yelias realize he was holding a knife.

A knife that looked remarkably like a scalpel...

His brow furrowed, and he subconsciously moved to throw the knife away.

But a small hand covered the back of his. "I’ll teach you!"

Bai Su took his hand from the side, arranging his fingers. "Like this. Grip the handle with your back three fingers, and use your thumb and index finger to control the force and direction..."

Yelias felt himself once again enveloped by the sweet scent of a juicy peach, as waves crashed against his spiderweb, one after another.

The web rippled like the surface of water, trembling gently and assailing his sanity.

He absolutely loathed holding knives...

As if not sensing his aversion, Bai Su took his other hand and placed it on the radish. "Hold it down now. You have to curl your fingers. Don’t press down with your fingertips, it’s easy to cut yourself that way. It’s better to curl them and press down with your knuckles..."

Although the little rabbit had slender limbs, it was still a bit difficult for her to embrace him from behind like this.

She had to lean her head out to teach him the slicing technique.

As her little head strained forward, her chest inevitably brushed against his back.

Even though Yelias was used to a life of abstinence and had seen female bodies before, this was the first time he had felt such a full weight. His ears turned an unnatural shade of red. "Susu, I..."

He wanted to pull his hand back and tell her that he didn’t like holding knives, nor did he like using them to cut things. It would remind him of unpleasant memories.

"Ah..."

As he pulled his hand back, Bai Su let out a soft cry.

She quickly retracted her hand. A bead of blood, piercingly red, welled up on the pale, tender pad of her index finger.

Yelias froze. "Sorry, I..."

Bai Su quickly waved her hand. "It’s nothing, just a small cut."

She brought her finger to her lips, stuck out her tongue, and deftly licked the drop of blood away. Then she bent down to look for a bandage in the cabinet. "It’s just part of cooking. When you chop vegetables often, you’re bound to nick your hands. I’m used to it. It’s no big deal!"

Yelias’s mind went blank. All that remained was the fleeting glimpse from a moment ago—a visual stimulus that was wet, pink, clean, and soft.

After applying a cute bandage, Bai Su looked at him again. "Still want to learn?"

Yelias, who had been about to explain, pressed his lips together and fell silent for a moment. Meeting her eager and expectant gaze, he ultimately softened. "I’ll learn..."

Bai Su beamed. "Come here! I’ll demonstrate once, and you’ll get it."

Yelias nodded lightly and stepped closer.

Bai Su held the knife and gave him a slow, detailed demonstration. "Actually, cutting things with a knife is very simple. It’s not as complicated as you think. Look..."

Yelias watched her hands deftly hold the knife and slice the radish into perfectly even pieces. His eyes flickered, his thoughts unreadable.

Bai Su knew you couldn’t get fat from one meal.

She finished slicing the radish and didn’t make him try again. She just cooked by herself, explaining the steps to him as she went.

Yelias was very smart. He could basically remember anything he was taught after hearing it just once.

It was also his first time visiting.

Bai Su didn’t actually make him do anything.

’She was only deliberately testing him. After confirming he truly had an aversion to using knives, she had a good guess as to why.’

’The plot of the novel hadn’t changed in this regard.’

’It was because of a mistake on the operating table years ago. He failed to save his sister, which left him with a psychological trauma, and he hadn’t dared to touch a knife since.’

’Now that she had confirmed the root of the problem, Bai Su could prescribe the right remedy.’

She made an arrangement with Yelias for him to come here every morning as an apprentice.
