Beast World: From Villainess to Cub-Raising Chef novel Chapter 199

Chapter 199: Chapter 197: Game Arcade Date

Mirene’s eyes reddened, and he looked at Bai Su, his gaze full of hurt. His vulnerable expression made the onlookers’ hearts ache for him.

He stubbornly met Bai Su’s gaze for a long moment before finally admitting defeat, turning and running miserably out of the restaurant.

Seeing this, Yan Qingya hurried over. "Susu, how could you..."

Bai Su looked a little weary. "Are you going to blame me for hurting his feelings, too?"

Yan Qingya said, "Of course not. But in a place this public, you and he are both public figures..."

She was afraid Bai Su would get flamed online.

The more popular and followed a public figure is, the more their every word and action is magnified on the internet.

Bai Su had just rejected him so bluntly and impolitely, and Yan Qingya had seen someone recording it.

That video would definitely be on the internet by tomorrow at the latest, and Bai Su would surely face a storm of criticism. Yan Qingya could see it coming a mile away.

Bai Su understood her friend’s look and patted her on the shoulder. "I get plenty of hate online. Don’t worry, I’ll be fine."

’As long as I don’t care, their words are just farts in the wind.’

Yan Qingya gave her a headache-ridden look and couldn’t help but start complaining about that fish. "Honestly, did he have to emotionally blackmail you in front of everyone? He could have just done it in private, and everyone could have kept their dignity."

Bai Su patted her shoulder. "My shift is over. You watch the shop."

Yan Qingya had her popcorn and sunflower seeds ready. "You’re not staying to watch the shop with me?"

She was all set to spend three hours with Bai Su cursing out that dead fish of a Mermaid.

A smile touched Bai Su’s lips. "Nope. I’m going on a date."

Yan Qingya was about to say something else when she saw Li Chenlin’s ridiculously flashy red sports car drift to a stop at the restaurant’s entrance.

"..."

’Damn that flashy snake, always with the theatrics.’

’No, this won’t do. Tomorrow, I’m grabbing my Beast Husband from home and making him learn a thing or two!’

Bai Su got into Li Chenlin’s car.

It had been a long time since she had been this relaxed.

Only Li Chenlin always had time to take her out and have fun.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Bai Su started to feel a flicker of anticipation. "What are we doing for fun today?"

Li Chenlin’s lips curved. "Something a little more exciting today."

’I spent all last night cramming knowledge from "domineering CEO" novels. I’m terrifyingly good at this now!’

They pulled up in front of a holographic game center.

Bai Su paused. "This is?"

Li Chenlin smiled. "I’m taking you to play a game to relax."

’This was the one I found after searching every game center in the entire Imperial City—the one most suitable for bringing couples closer.’

’Today, I’ll definitely be able to hold her hand!’

Brimming with confidence, Li Chenlin walked around to the other side to open the door for Bai Su.

The two of them entered the game center.

Not long after they went in, a father-and-daughter pair of Cat Beastmen, one large and one small, followed them inside.

...

It was Bai Su’s first time in a place like this. She didn’t know anything, so she could only stand there obediently with her hands out, letting Li Chenlin treat her like a child as he put on her helmet, mask, protective gear, and special shoes.

Li Chenlin said, "This is a holographic forest adventure simulation. The people and monsters inside are virtual, but you’ll still feel pain if you get hit."

"Besides us, there are other two-person teams, also players exploring the map. They might attack us."

"Just stick with me. I’ll protect you, and we’ll break through all the obstacles to find the treasure deep in the forest!"
