Beast World: From Villainess to Cub-Raising Chef novel Chapter 108

Chapter 108: Chapter 108: Good Luck, Miss Bai Su

With one cooking and the other assisting, and the lamb chops already roasted, the meal was ready in no time.

A look of excitement on her face, Bai Su asked Lu Tingyan to get two wine glasses from the fridge. She was going upstairs to change.

Amused, Lu Tingyan told her to slow down. He did as she asked, taking the glasses from the fridge and pouring wine.

Bai Su rustled around upstairs for a bit before coming down in a little slip dress, her long hair let down.

She often wore her long hair in braided buns, so when it was down, it fell in natural waves.

Her rabbit ears drooped on either side of her head, looking cute and coquettish.

Bai Su had only freshened up a little; she wore no makeup. Thanks to the nurturing of her Healing Ability, her body was in excellent condition from the inside out. Even without makeup, her complexion was far more beautiful than any cosmetics could achieve.

As Lu Tingyan watched her slowly descend the stairs, his gaze softened. "Susu..."

Bai Su felt a little shy. She walked up to him and looked at him expectantly. "Do I look nice?"

Lu Tingyan’s Adam’s apple bobbed as he swallowed. "Beautiful."

Bai Su pulled him to sit down across from her.

The only light in the entire dining room came from the flickering flames of the candelabra on the table.

The heating was on full blast, filling the room with a warm, romantic ambiance.

The sweet fragrance of a honey peach seemed to bake in the warmth, taking on a tempting quality.

The roasted lamb chops on the table exuded a rich, complex aroma. The creamy scent of butter mingled with the fragrance of rosemary and other herbs, enveloping the lamb and making one’s mouth water.

They clinked their glasses, took a few sips, and began their meal.

Lu Tingyan had always had a large appetite, but his table manners were elegant and refined.

He used to only eat canned food and only knew how to use a spoon.

But after many meals with Bai Su, she had taught him how to use chopsticks, as well as a knife and fork.

He loved meat, always cutting off sizable chunks. He would put a piece in his mouth and chew it gently, making almost no sound.

He would always wait until he had completely swallowed before taking another bite.

He was methodical and composed, not at all like someone who had just learned table manners, but rather like someone who had been strictly trained and cultivated since childhood.

Bai Su had to admit, some people are just inherently attractive. This attractiveness wasn’t just about looks, but a composite impression emanating from their appearance, voice, and temperament—a beauty that shone from the inside out.

Finding the sight of him so pleasing, Bai Su couldn’t help but take a few extra bites herself.

She had also prepared an after-dinner dessert.

Once the table was cleared, she brought out two glasses of a frozen lemon dessert.

There was nothing more delightful than eating a cold dessert in a warm room.

She had made a lemon yogurt sorbet. Its dense texture was more like a soft paste, cool and refreshing, with a perfect balance of sweet and sour.

Bai Su had just popped a spoonful into her mouth, not even giving it a chance to melt, when she was suddenly pounced upon and pushed down onto the table.

"Hey—" she yelped, startled, instinctively placing her hands against Lu Tingyan’s broad chest.

Lu Tingyan’s voice was thick with huskiness. "Susu, how much longer are you going to make me endure?"

Bai Su looked at him shyly. "Are you that impatient?"

The tip of Lu Tingyan’s nose nuzzled the crook of her neck. "You’re already enjoying your little treat. Can I have mine now?"

Bai Su’s heart began to race. She lowered her head and murmured, "But... I haven’t finished my yogurt sorbet yet..."

A glint appeared in Lu Tingyan’s eyes. "One little mouth is too slow. Let me help you."

"Ah..." Bai Su looked at him, bewildered.

As she was laid back on the table, she still didn’t quite understand what he meant.

Until...

She was turned into a human platter, laden with cold yogurt sorbet, which he then began to eat.
