Beast World: From Villainess to Cub-Raising Chef novel Chapter 220

Chapter 220: Chapter 218: Bai Su Steals the Show on the Court

From a corner, Xiao Yi stepped out with a broad smile. "I’d quite like to have a match with Miss Qin Nuo myself."

Mr. Qin’s expression brightened considerably, and he gestured for him to play.

Looks of regret appeared on the faces of the others.

Such a great opportunity, but it hadn’t fallen to them.

Qin Nuo glanced at Li Chenlin and Rosa Meiya in the corner, her thin lips tightening. She picked up her cue and stepped up to the table.

’Just you wait.’

’She would show them all who the real star of the show was.’

’Cheeks was a game for the nobility of the nobility, something only heirs to the Royal Family were qualified to learn.’

’Would that unbearably tacky rabbit female, flirting shamelessly in the corner, even know how to play?’

’Who did that low-status creature think she was, daring to snatch her prey at her own event?’

The opening game was played by Qin Nuo and Xiao Yi. The males from more powerful nations had all crowded to the front, surrounding the billiards table, unwilling to miss any chance to make an impression on Qin Nuo.

Qin Nuo merely made a simple break, and the room was already filled with cheers.

Bai Su looked toward the crowd, and her eyes inadvertently met Qin Nuo’s.

Qin Nuo gave her a haughty glance before scornfully looking away.

Bai Su was speechless.

The System popped up at just the right moment. "Host, do you need an item? I can help you put her in her place and quickly become the center of attention!"

"...No, thanks," Bai Su thought.

’She wasn’t an idiot. Why would she deliberately steal someone’s thunder and show them up on their own turf, in their own home, at a party they were hosting?’

She started to say something but ultimately kept her mouth shut.

’This System just loved to stir up trouble, anyway.’

The game ended with Qin Nuo as the victor.

She stood happily by the table, basking in everyone’s flattery.

Mr. Qin also nodded in satisfaction. "I can see everyone is eager to play. Please, enjoy yourselves. Don’t mind us two old folks."

With the opening game over, the guests began to mingle freely.

The brave ones naturally scrambled for a chance to play against Qin Nuo.

Those who knew their own limits kept their distance, busying themselves with networking and starting their own games.

Bai Su was getting a little bored. The party would go on for several more hours, there was nowhere to get a bite to eat, and just sitting around was torture.

She tugged on Li Chenlin’s sleeve. "Want to play a round?"

Seeing that she had finally shown a bit of interest, Li Chenlin’s lips curved into a smile. "Sure. Don’t worry, I’ll go easy on you."

Bai Su let out a laugh. "Alright."

She didn’t really know the skill level of billiards in this world. In any case, she was bored, so playing a couple of games with Li Chenlin sounded like a good idea.

Watching everyone else play so passionately made her own hands itch to try.

Bai Su deliberately found an empty table far away from Qin Nuo’s to start their game.

A waiter thoughtfully brought her the necessary equipment.

Bai Su thanked him and picked out a cue.

A glint of light flashed in the waiter’s eyes. After placing the items aside, he respectfully withdrew.

Huddled in a corner, a few inconspicuous young waiters began to chatter excitedly.

"It’s true! Lucy wasn’t lying! That young female actually thanked us!!"

"Gods, it’s unbelievable. How can there be a female who is so approachable?"

"She’s so noble and gentle, with a smile as warm and bright as the Beast God’s. She doesn’t hesitate to show her kindness, even to servants like us!"

"SOB... I like her so much! Which family’s young lady is she?"

"I heard she’s from the Snow Country."

Bai Su had no idea that her simple, polite gesture had sparked such a heated discussion among the staff. She leaned over the table and broke the balls with a clean, crisp shot.

The moment Li Chenlin saw Bai Su’s posture as she lined up her break shot, he sensed something was off.

’How does she look even more practiced than him?’

When Bai Su sank a ball with a clean, decisive shot, Li Chenlin’s last hope died. "Susu... so you actually know how to play."

Bai Su replied, "A little. It’s been a while."

Then she sank another ball.

Soon, people started to notice what was happening at their table.
