Beast World: From Villainess to Cub-Raising Chef novel Chapter 39

Chapter 39: Chapter 39: Mysterious Grandpa Transforms into an Old Overbearing Tycoon

Bai Xiaolang rushed out from the corner, shielding Bai Su. "You’re not allowed to bully my mom!"

When Mrs. Bai saw the little boy who looked almost identical to Lu Tingyan, her eyes widened in disbelief.

She glanced at the boy, then back at Bai Su, a guilty look in her eyes. "How... How is this possible? How could those children still be alive?!"

Bai Su’s eyes narrowed. "What?"

A flash of panic crossed Mrs. Bai’s eyes. She hurriedly ordered her bodyguards, "Are you all dead? Tie her up and bring her back! And... and that child, tie him up too!"

"Yes, Ma’am!"

Mrs. Bai finally relaxed a bit when she saw her bodyguards force the mother and son into a corner, gaining a tactical advantage.

She sighed in relief internally, her superior expression returning as she looked down on Bai Su. "We’re doing you a favor by letting you return to the Bai family, so don’t be ungrateful! The Bai family isn’t a place just anyone can waltz into!"

Bai Xiaolang hid his wolf claws behind his back, secretly gathering his strength.

His power wasn’t sufficient right now. He had a one hundred percent chance of winning a one-on-one fight, but one-against-many was a different story.

Because he could only use his Companion Ability once in a short period...

’Damn it, I’m too weak!’

In the nick of time, an angry shout came from outside the door. "Stop!"

An old man with a white beard, leaning on a cane, walked in with an angry expression. "The Bai family certainly puts on quite a show."

Mrs. Bai turned to see the old man, her eyes widening in disbelief. It was only when she saw his white tunic suit and the insignia on the back of his aged hand that she was forced to confirm his identity.

Yarko Lanton, the head of the Lanton Family, which controlled hundreds of core medical technologies worldwide.

It was no exaggeration to say that members of the Lanton Family were respected figures in any country they went to.

After all, Beastmen cherished their lives. No matter how ruthless an organization of desperados was, they would never turn away a highly skilled doctor.

The Lanton Family practically held the medical lifeline of every country in the world. Though not a kingdom, they were the universally acknowledged uncrowned kings of the medical field.

Mrs. Bai was secretly astonished. ’I’ve only ever seen such a figure from a distance, on the roadside outside the venue, back when the leading clan of the Lu Family held their annual banquet.’

The Bai family’s status was not high enough to even get an invitation to the annual banquet.

’To think I’d see the head of the Lanton Family in a place like this!’

Mrs. Bai quickly plastered on a fawning smile and scurried over. "You must be Old Sir Lanton, correct? Forgive my rudeness. I am from the Bai family of the Imperial City..."

"So it’s you, from the Bai Family, bullying my granddaughter here?" Yarko shot her a cold glance.

Although the old man was advanced in years, his eyes were still clear and sharp. The natural aura of a powerful individual emanated from him, so intense that the Bear Beastmen present could hardly lift their heads.

Mrs. Bai’s heart skipped a beat. "This must be a misunderstanding, right? Sir... w-we wouldn’t dare bully your granddaughter!"

Yarko walked slowly to Bai Su and patted her head protectively. "Don’t be afraid, kiddo. Grandpa is here. I’d like to see anyone try to touch you!"

Mrs. Bai froze on the spot. ’What was there not to understand?’

’But how did she not know when this little bitch had gotten involved with the Lanton Family?’
