Beast World: From Villainess to Cub-Raising Chef novel Chapter 13

Chapter 13: Chapter 13: Punching in Four Directions, Kicking in Eight

Bai Su frowned as she walked out the door and saw someone striding toward her, sleeves rolled up, hands on their hips, looking for a fight.

She recognized the person. It was the proprietress of the rice shop at the foot of the mountain. Everyone called her Xiao Mi.

Xiao Mi had a voluptuous figure, was very fertile, and was quite attractive. She was also a Level 3 Cat Beastman, known throughout the village as the famous Mi Xishi.

Several Beast Husbands trailed behind her, their faces etched with embarrassment. "Hey, just forget it, forget it."

"We’re all neighbors. Making a scene would be so awkward."

Xiao Mi shot them a vicious glare. "If you say one more word for that bitch Bai Su, you can all get the hell out with nothing to your names!"

"Don’t think I don’t know what you’re all thinking! You’ve all gotten bold, running up the mountain every day."

Bai Su stepped out of the orphanage, her expression perfectly calm. "What’s going on?"

Bai Xiaolang’s face was grim. Afraid they would bully Bai Su, he stood protectively beside her, radiating hostility.

With one hand on her hip, Xiao Mi pointed at Bai Xiaolang beside her. "You have the nerve to ask me what’s wrong? Your ill-mannered brat from the orphanage came to my shop and stole rice!"

Bai Su turned to look at Bai Xiaolang. "Is that true?"

Bai Xiaolang’s expression was awful. "No, I didn’t steal anything!"

Xiao Mi’s eyes widened in fury. "You still dare to say you didn’t? Wasn’t it just a couple of days ago that you overheard us gossiping about Bai Su?"

"When I got up this morning, I saw ten bags of rice missing from the warehouse! And the remaining seven or eight bags were slashed open, with rice spilled all over the floor!"

"You can go take a look right now! The cuts on those bags were clearly man-made. There’s no way they were gnawed open by rats!"

"Who else could it be but this feral little wolf whelp?"

The surrounding crowd began to chatter. "I saw it this morning, too. It’s true! The cuts on the bags were clean, like they were deliberately sliced with a fruit knife."

"Usually, everyone gets along. No one’s kid has ever done something like this."

"Yeah, how could something like this suddenly happen?"

Xiao Mi snorted, casting a disdainful glance at Bai Su before turning to the crowd. "Isn’t it obvious? It’s all because I was gossiping about Bai Su with a few friends at the foot of the mountain a few days ago, and this little wolf whelp held a grudge!"

"I wasn’t wrong, was I? Hasn’t Bai Su been seducing men lately? It’s the middle of summer, and males are already prone to going into heat."

"And her! She’s so desperate for a man, I can smell her slutty scent from a mile away!"

"She’s got our males running up the mountain every day for no reason. If you want to steal a man, have the guts to do it to my face! See if I don’t tear your face off!"

The commotion quickly attracted the attention of the construction crew.

But Bai Su was no pushover. Her expression turned cold as she stared at Xiao Mi. "Cut the crap. You come up here accusing one of my kids of stealing. Do you have any proof?"

"There are plenty of kids at the foot of the mountain, but you single out one of mine. What is it? Are you jealous of me?"

Xiao Mi’s eyes widened in disbelief as she pointed at her own nose. "Me? Jealous of you? Why don’t you take a good look at yourself?"

"An exiled female whose reputation stinks worse than the village sewer. Not a single male is willing to be your Beast Husband. Me, jealous of you? Don’t make me laugh!"

"Let me tell you, you have to give me an explanation for this today. Pay up! And make that little blind boy next to you apologize to me, or I’m calling the police!"

A shadow fell over Bai Xiaolang’s eyes. "I didn’t steal anything!"

Bai Su stepped in front of Bai Xiaolang. "He said he didn’t steal anything. If you keep falsely accusing my kid, believe me, I’ll rip your mouth apart."

"Falsely accusing?" Xiao Mi sneered. "Our kids down the mountain all have parents and good manners. Besides your orphanage, what other kids would do something so despicable?"
