Beast World: From Villainess to Cub-Raising Chef novel Chapter 162

Chapter 162: Chapter 161: A Troll Comes to Pick a Fight

*

Bai Su was in the middle of a whirlwind of activity.

Yan Qingya had just finished her postpartum confinement but was already back in the lobby greeting guests, clad in high heels, a camisole, and a cardigan. The smile on her face was so sweet that Bai Su sometimes suspected she had secretly eaten three pounds of white sugar in the kitchen before her shift.

Industrial saccharine—artificial and cloying.

Bai Su had no choice but to pull her into a corner. "Ayala..."

Yan Qingya smiled at her. "What is it?"

Bai Su said, "...Could you maybe not smile like that?"

Yan Qingya kept smiling. "Nope."

Bai Su asked, "Why not?"

Yan Qingya replied, "For work, I got a special 8-hour smile-lift filler."

Live Comments: [Hahahahaha, this female is so cute too.]

[She’s really going all out for work.]

[*Sob* Are all females this independent now? They’re all out building their own careers. What’s the point of us males then?]

[Slightly off-topic, but that smile-lift looks great. Miss, where did you get it done?]

Bai Su was speechless. "..."

’There’s no need to go *that* hard,’ she thought.

She said with an amused laugh, "You don’t have to be so tense at work. Generally, our customers are pretty easygoing."

Bai Su watched her darting around in high heels, worried she would wear herself out.

’She just had a baby. She really needs to rest more.’

Yan Qingya nodded, only half-understanding. "Oh, is that so..."

Then, she suddenly laughed again. "But running a restaurant is way harder than opening a bar or a club. By the way, that bar you invested in for me is already up and running. The young masters are in training... Mmph!"

Quick as a flash, Bai Su clapped a hand over her mouth and hissed, "That’s a secret! You can’t talk about it!"

’If Lu Tingyan and Yelias found out she was opening a bar with male hosts, they’d die of jealousy.’

Yan Qingya caught on and lowered her voice as well. "They won’t find out."

Live Comments: [Oh, but they already know.]

[Yeah, top donor Leader Lu, come on out and take a stroll. You’ve been sitting in the VIP section for half the day.]

[LMAO, I’m dying. What’s the point of whispering? Susu, your mic is clipped to your collar!]

[Shhh, let’s not tell her! Let’s see when she figures it out.]

In his office, handling military affairs, Lu Tingyan stared at the live broadcast, his eyes narrowing.

’A club, a bar, training young masters, huh...?’

Just as Bai Su was about to speak, a female burst through the main doors, looking for a fight. She stormed over toward Yan Qingya in a few large strides. "Hey! Get your boss out here."

Bai Su and Yan Qingya turned at the sound of her voice, and both froze.

’Bi Yue?’

The live stream camera next to Bai Su panned over to Bi Yue, and the live comments section instantly grew wary.

[What? Our Susu is the Federation’s First Duke, how does someone still dare to show up and cause trouble?]

[That face looks a little familiar. Didn’t she cause a scene here before?]

[I think so, I remember her too.]

When Bi Yue saw Bai Su, she also froze for a moment before her face darkened. "Good! Saves me the trouble of hunting you down!"

"Bai Su, you..."

Before she could finish, Kong Ji moved with lightning speed, restraining her and forcing her to her knees in one smooth motion. "Duchess, what are your orders?"

[Hahahahahaha, little bro Kong Ji is so cool!]

[That ended so abruptly. I thought she was a tigress, but she was all bark and no bite.]

[What the... I already had an 800-word flame post ready to go, but this female is such a weakling?]

The corner of Bai Su’s mouth twitched. She felt a bit exasperated.

For the past few days, Bi Yue had been constantly trying to ambush her.

One time, she tailed Bai Su’s car but was intercepted by Bablo before she could even get close.

Another time, she was lurking furtively outside Bai Su’s mansion, only for Lu Tingyan to have her thrown far away as he was leaving.

You couldn’t say she was completely stupid; she knew enough to try a different method each time.

But you couldn’t say she was smart, either, since she always showed up with "I’m here to make trouble" written all over her face.
