Beast World: From Villainess to Cub-Raising Chef novel Chapter 175

Chapter 175: Chapter 173: Bai Su Is Complained About Again

Bai Su: "Huh?"

Li Chenlin stood obediently to the side. "Susu, since you don’t mind me joining you... how about I help you out when you cook later?"

Yelias’s eyebrows shot up in displeasure.

’What now?’

’First, he steals Lu Tingyan’s spot, and now he wants to steal mine?’

Yelias forced a polite smile. "That won’t be necessary. I am, after all, an apprentice Susu taught with her own two hands. I’m more than enough help in the kitchen."

Li Chenlin didn’t yield an inch, though his face remained gentle and gentlemanly. "I was asking Susu, you know. I only listen to Susu. Yelias, why are you being so tyrannical? I just got over that bad habit myself, and now you’re picking it up. Shouldn’t Susu be the one to decide who helps in the kitchen?"

The tension between them was palpable, an undercurrent of hostility swirling as they both turned to look at Bai Su.

Seeing this, Lu Tingyan wrapped a fiercely possessive arm around Bai Su.

Bai Su: "..."

’It seems Li Chenlin’s arrival has shattered the balance between Lu Tingyan and Yelias.’

’But...’

She looked toward Li Chenlin. He was just standing there gently, not the least bit angry.

’The old him would have already flown into a rage and stormed off by now.’

’Shouldn’t a person who’s turned over a new leaf receive encouragement?’

Bai Su gave him an encouraging smile. "Alright, Li Chenlin can help then. Kitchen prep is very simple. I’m just happy you’re all willing to help me cook."

Yelias, defeated.

Li Chenlin’s lips curled, a flash of delight crossing his eyes.

Bai Su patted Lu Tingyan. "Alright, let go of me now. You be good and let Yelias take a look at you and prescribe some medicine. Go lie down on the sofa for a bit. I’ll go make you something light to eat."

She and Li Chenlin went into the kitchen and started bustling about with dinner preparations.

Yelias glared sullenly at Lu Tingyan on the sofa. "This is what happens when you let the wolf in the door."

Lu Tingyan: "..."

’I miscalculated. I didn’t think that stupid snake would turn out to be such a green-tea master.’

Yelias: "Susu is sleeping with me tonight."

Lu Tingyan: "It’s my turn tonight."

Yelias: "And you think you’re justified after letting the wolf in?"

Lu Tingyan: "Or what, you want me to have Flar bring over another two truckloads of your family’s ’outstanding young talents’ for you to choose from? Let’s see which one of them *wouldn’t* be considered ’letting the wolf in.’"

Yelias: "..."

While these two were sulking at each other, the atmosphere in the kitchen was perfectly harmonious.

While helping wash vegetables, Li Chenlin watched Bai Su expertly handle a fish and praised, "Susu, you’re amazing. Watching you do such delicate work is a real pleasure."

Bai Su laughed. "Practice makes perfect. It’s nothing that amazing."

As a Wolf Beastman, Lu Tingyan’s hearing was particularly sharp.

The continuous stream of sounds from the kitchen made his expression grow darker and darker.

"Susu, how do I wash this?"

"You’re so amazing!"

"How should this be cut?"

"So clever! How did you think of cutting it this way? It really is fast!"

"Susu, what should I do? The more I get to know you, the more I realize how truly outstanding you are..."

"Ah... HISS, I cut my hand..."

"It’s fine now. After you blew on it for me, it doesn’t even hurt anymore."

Lu Tingyan silently snapped two chopsticks in half.

Unable to bear it any longer, he stood up.

Suddenly, his terminal rang out.
