Beast World: From Villainess to Cub-Raising Chef novel Chapter 209

Chapter 209: Chapter 207: My Dad’s Period

Mirene swallowed hard. "Then... what about me?"

Rosa Meiya glanced at him with disgust. "You can differentiate into a female and go inherit the throne!"

Mirene stared at her in disbelief. "Sis, you’d give up the throne for Bai Su?!"

Rosa Meiya rolled her eyes, a flicker of ambition in their depths.

’Compared to the mere throne of the Sea Clan, the position of Beast Husband to the King of Ten Thousand Beasts—power second only to one and above all others—is far more appealing!’

’What does this foolish, shortsighted brother of mine know?’

「Meanwhile.」

Bai Su finished up some minor tasks at the Female Protection Institution and was about to head back.

Bai Ruxin hurried over to her. "President."

Bai Su looked at her. "Is there something else?"

Bai Ruxin hesitated. "It’s just..."

It was rare for Bai Su to even remember her, and she had been brought back to work at the Female Protection Institution, so she cherished this job immensely.

But her grandmother, younger brother, and younger sister had all placed the Bai family’s hopes on her, and she found it hard to refuse them...

Bai Ruxin steeled herself and said, "It’s just... your father... no, the Bai family wants to see you. They want to apologize in person and hope you can give them that chance."

Ever since they offended Bai Su and were dragged down by their collusion with the Medical Alliance, the Bai family had been in a slump from which they had yet to recover.

The Bai family’s corporate shares had plummeted, and they were now drowning in debt.

Bai Junlan had been dismissed from her position as president, and unable to bear the online criticism, she had a stroke out of sheer anger. She would now be bedridden for the rest of her days.

Bai Jiayue and Bai Ruyan constantly whined in her ear with regret, saying they wanted to apologize to Bai Su in person and regretted how they had treated her before.

In truth, Bai Ruxin knew they just wanted Bai Su to give them a chance by visiting the Bai family’s home.

Given Bai Su’s current status, as long as she visited the Bai residence, it didn’t matter what she did there or how long she stayed.

Because in the eyes of outsiders, Bai Su—the Level 8 Female, the First Duke, the Leader’s Wife—had visited the Bai family.

Then, other noble families wouldn’t dare to look down on the Bai family anymore.

With the Bai family’s methods, they could naturally leverage the ambiguous public opinion to stage a comeback.

Bai Su was a smart person.

The moment Bai Ruxin started speaking, Bai Su must have understood the Bai family’s intentions.

And indeed, there was no surprise on Bai Su’s face. She just stared at her fixedly. "You know I don’t share the Bai family’s bloodline. I’m not really one of them."

Bai Ruxin nodded quickly. "Of course, I know. You don’t have to force yourself. I’m just passing on the message. Whether you go or not is entirely up to you."

Bai Su looked at her. "Then do you want me to go?"

Bai Ruxin was taken aback. "Me?"

Bai Su nodded. "Yes. I want to know what you think."

Meeting Bai Su’s sharp gaze, Bai Ruxin felt as if all her little calculations had been seen through.

She felt a little guilty and a little awkward.

It was already more than generous for Bai Su to have called her back to continue her post.

Bai Ruxin took a deep breath, thought for a moment, and decided to be honest. "Well, I’m a member of the Bai family, so of course I want what’s best for them and hope you’ll go. But I also know you have a grudge against them, so it would be perfectly understandable if you didn’t."

"You’ve already drawn a clear line with the Bai family. It’s naturally for the best if you don’t get involved with them again."

A smile touched the corners of Bai Su’s lips. "Alright."

Bai Ruxin paused. "What?"

Bai Su said, "I’ll go, for your sake."

Bai Ruxin quickly understood, a flash of joy crossing her face. "Really?! That’s wonderful!"

Bai Su patted her on the shoulder and turned to leave the institution.

Tears of gratitude welled in Bai Ruxin’s eyes as she watched her retreating back.

’I really didn’t pick the wrong side.’

From the first time she stepped into Bai Su’s restaurant, she knew that Bai Su was actually a very kind and gentle person.

The Bai family could recover, and her children and Beast Husbands could finally return to a normal life. They would no longer be bad-mouthed and ostracized wherever they went.
