Beast World: From Villainess to Cub-Raising Chef novel Chapter 302

Chapter 302: Chapter 299: Yelias’s Drunken Confession

The next day, Bai Su didn’t wake up until the afternoon.

The physical discomfort she felt had vanished.

Her Clone retracted into her body. She let out a slow sigh of relief, closed her eyes, and focused once more on the Beast God Crystal Stone within her Spirit Sea.

Sure enough, the final golden section had also been lit.

A huge weight was finally lifted from her heart.

’It seems this link doesn’t entirely require a spiritual connection. Wen Lan and I don’t have any romantic feelings for each other, but it still worked, didn’t it?’

System: [How can you be so sure you and Wen Lan don’t have feelings for each other? I think you two are quite sweet together.]

Bai Su: [You think I wouldn’t know my own feelings for him?]

System: [I think you do.]

Bai Su: [It’s not about what you think. It’s about what I think.]

System: [Fine.]

It added: [All four pieces of the Crystal Stone are lit. Do you want to try cultivating with the Beast God Crystal Stone? It’ll be much faster, you know.]

Bai Su: [Do you still have those multiplier items you gave me last time?]

System: [Yes. Two hundred ordinary points each.]

Bai Su nodded. [That’s fine.]

’She still had plenty of ordinary points; more than enough.’

She then asked, [How many golden points do I have left?]

System: [After exchanging for the Beast Language Skill last time, you have a little over eighty thousand remaining.]

Bai Su nodded. [Good.]

’That’s still enough.’

She closed her eyes and began to absorb the spiritual power she had received from Wen Lan.

His spiritual power lingered in the channels of her Spirit Sea, exceptionally domineering and reckless. Just in the time she had been asleep, it had already explored every inch of those channels.

Among all of her husbands, his spiritual power was the most bull-headed.

’Bai Su now had a pretty good idea where Wen Dabao got his unpredictable nature from.’

She channeled the spiritual power into her Spirit Sea, infusing it into the Beast God Crystal Stone.

The four streams of power fused, converging into a white energy.

Bai Su felt a nourishing sensation wash over her entire body, and she was instantly filled with energy.

When she opened her eyes again, it was completely dark outside.

Lu Tingyan had already had dinner prepared.

When Bai Su came downstairs, Lu Tingyan was in the living room watching cartoons with Wen Xiaobao. Beside them, Li Chenlin was clumsily playing cat’s cradle with Hua Hua, while Wen Lan was chasing Wen Dabao, trying to give him a spanking.

Bai Xiaolang, Bai Xiaoshe, and Bai Xiao Zhu were clearly used to the chaos. Perfectly content in their own little world, the three of them had their heads huddled together, engrossed in studying something.

Bai Su scanned the room and frowned slightly. "Is Yelias not home yet?"

Lu Tingyan answered, "Still at the lab. Did you two have a fight recently?"

Hearing this, Li Chenlin seized the chance to stir the pot. "What kind of Beast Husband is he? Does he expect our Susu to personally go and placate him? So inconsiderate."

"Unlike me. I just want Susu to be happy with me. I could never bear to argue with her."

Wen Lan’s lip twitched. "Enough. Your manipulative act is nauseating."

Li Chenlin glared at him. "What the hell is it to you?"

Hua Hua patted him on the head, the tap neither light nor heavy. "Don’t be like that, my child. Stop making trouble. Little Ye is going through a tough time."

Li Chenlin was instantly jealous again. "What does he have to be upset about? I became Susu’s Beast Husband much later than him, and you don’t see me complaining."

Bai Su ignored their squabbling and said to Lu Tingyan, "I’ll go get him."

Lu Tingyan offered, "Want me to go with you?"

Bai Su shook her head. "No, it’s fine. You stay here and watch cartoons with Little Treasure."

’She figured that giving him the cold shoulder for a few days should have been enough time for him to cool off.’

Yelias: "You just don’t want me anymore."

Bai Su looked at him calmly. "Yelias, you’re the one who did something wrong, not me. What’s the point of arguing with me now? Do you expect me to placate you?"

Sensing her anger, Yelias quickly reached out and grabbed the hem of her clothes. "Susu, don’t be angry. I didn’t mean for you to placate me."

Then, sounding aggrieved, he added, "But you haven’t come looking for me for days. You didn’t even care that I didn’t come home. Doesn’t that mean you don’t want me anymore?"

Bai Su laughed in exasperation. "Let me say it again: you’re the one who did something wrong, not me."

"I was deceived and kept in the dark for so long. Is it my fault that I got angry and didn’t immediately come looking for you?"

Yelias hiccuped drunkenly and shook his head honestly. "It’s not Susu’s fault. It’s my fault."

Bai Su said, "Exactly. I didn’t look for you because I wanted you to reflect on what you did wrong and then come apologize to me. I didn’t want you to abandon all hope and sit here drinking instead of coming home."

Yelias’s eyes brightened slightly. "So you’re not abandoning me?"

Bai Su replied, "If you do something to displease me right now, I really will abandon you."

Emboldened by the alcohol, Yelias staggered to his feet and tried to lunge toward her. "Susu..."

Bai Su pushed him back down. "Sit there and talk. Don’t get clingy."

Yelias nodded, aggrieved. "Awooo..."

His brain seemed to be working slowly, but his hand still held a death grip on Bai Su’s sleeve, afraid she would leave.

"I’m sorry, Susu. I shouldn’t have lied to you..."

"Back then, the Lanton Family had a mole from the Medical Alliance. I had just returned and wasn’t familiar with the family, so the only way I could get close to you and investigate the truth of my grandfather’s death was by using a disguise."

"After I found out the truth, I didn’t say anything because I was afraid of dragging you into the Lanton Family’s internal strife. I was afraid you’d be in danger..."

"And then later..."

"Later..."

His voice trailed off, getting quieter and quieter.

Bai Su wasn’t falling for it. "What happened later? Speak up. Don’t try to gloss over it."
