Beast World: From Villainess to Cub-Raising Chef novel Chapter 195

Chapter 195: Chapter 193: Wen Lan Delivers Himself

He decided to act immediately.

Wen Lan got up and went to the restaurant across the street to find Bai Su.

Bai Su was setting up her camera to start her stream. When she heard Wen Lan wanted to learn how to cook from her, her expression didn’t change. "Oh."

She was still holding a grudge against Wen Lan for beating Li Chenlin up so badly.

Wen Lan raised an eyebrow. "What’s that ’oh’ supposed to mean? You disagree?"

His self-righteous attitude made Bai Su laugh in exasperation. "What? Just because you’re asking me to teach you, I have to agree?"

"How do I know you won’t suddenly lose your temper and beat me up like you did Li Chenlin?"

"I’ve always valued my life, and I don’t like spending time with people who have violent tendencies."

Wen Lan’s eyes widened in disbelief. "Me? Injure him?"

’When the two of us fight, it’s always a clash of spiritual power. I didn’t even touch the hem of Li Chenlin’s clothes yesterday!’

’Da Bao was right. That stupid snake is so afraid I’ll get close to Bai Su that he’s deliberately slandering me in front of her!’

’Fine, fine, fine!’

’The more he does this, the more determined I am!’

Wen Lan cleared his throat, a dejected look appearing on his face. "After seeing your other three children yesterday, I went home and thought about it. You really are better at raising kids than I am."

"Little Treasure and Da Bao are more attached to me. They’re only sticking around you because it’s something new. After a while, they’ll want to come back to me."

"But I don’t know how to cook, so they have to put up with eating canned food."

"If it weren’t for the children, I wouldn’t have come to you to learn to cook."

"Bai Su, I know we’re not on the best of terms, but for the sake of the kids, can’t we both take a step back?"

"I’ve already come to your door to become your apprentice for the children’s sake. Can you, for their sake, take me on as your student?"

The children were Bai Su’s weak spot.

She really didn’t like Wen Lan, especially since he had never been pleasant to her and had beaten Li Chenlin so badly.

But no matter what, he was at least a good father, willing to swallow his pride and come to her for his children.

Bai Su thought for a moment and her heart softened. "Alright then. My work hours are from 10 AM to 2 PM every day. You can come find me in the kitchen, and I’ll teach you on the side."

After speaking, she paused. "Do you have the time?"

Of course Wen Lan had time.

’His mission is to protect her. She’s right under my nose, so what could I possibly be busy with?’

But the words on the tip of his tongue took a sudden turn. "For the children, I’ll make time to be here punctually, no matter how busy I am."

Bai Su felt a little more satisfied. "Good."

She had a waitress from outside bring in a new apron and hand it to Wen Lan.

But to her surprise, Wen Lan recoiled, his brow furrowed. "Just put it there. I’ll get it myself."

The waitress saw how much he seemed to disdain her. She pressed her lips together but didn’t say anything, simply putting the apron down before leaving.

Bai Su narrowed her eyes. "What are you doing?"

Wen Lan didn’t speak, just walked over and put on the apron. "I’m ready to start anytime."

Bai Su crossed her arms and watched him, the warmth in her eyes fading. "If you want to learn from me here, you have to follow my rules."

Wen Lan noticed the change in her attitude and found it baffling. "What rules?"

"Show my staff the most basic respect."

Wen Lan realized what she meant. A glint flickered in his eyes, but he offered no explanation. "Got it."

His disdainful behavior had made Bai Su very uncomfortable. "You’d better."

’The waitstaff here are all females who came for treatment. They’re from the lower class, but in my eyes, that doesn’t make them inferior.’

’If Wen Lan shows that kind of disdain for the staff again, I might start to think there’s a problem with his character, and that it might not be right for the children to stay with him.’

Bai Su pressed her lips together and didn’t say any more on the matter. She just added, "I’m about to start my livestream. If you don’t want your face to be shown, wear a mask."

Wen Lan noticed her cold attitude and frowned slightly. He didn’t say anything, just found a mask and put it on.

The live camera turned on, and Bai Su quickly slipped into her streaming persona. "Good morning, everyone. I’m your boss, Bai Su."
