Beast World: From Villainess to Cub-Raising Chef novel Chapter 54

Chapter 54: Chapter 54: Taming the Fault-Finding Bai Family with Delicious Food

Bai Su smiled faintly and said humbly, "It’s nothing, really. Just a little over 110 pounds."

She was intentionally managing her weight, keeping it around 120 pounds. It was a good balance, so she wouldn’t be unhealthy or too weak.

Most females in the Federation weighed around 88 pounds.

Females there admired a frail, slender build. The more delicate and willowy they were, the more it accentuated their petite, elegant figures.

Bai Su couldn’t get behind that sort of beauty standard.

Bai Ruxin glared at her, displeased. "An elder has been waiting for so long, and you haven’t even invited me in to sit. Is that what you call manners?"

She had been ordered to observe Bai Su today and wasn’t about to go back so easily.

Bai Su’s mouth twitched. This aunt of hers had been away her whole life, rarely ever returning to the Bai family.

She didn’t have any grudge against her aunt, but she didn’t appreciate people finding fault with her.

Bai Su said, "If you have something to say, just say it out here. It’s not like we’re close..."

Bai Ruxin insisted on entering, pushing her aside as she strode in. "I’d like to see what you have to hide. How dare a junior like you..."

Before she could finish, she caught a scent in the air and her eyes widened. "What... what is that smell?"

She couldn’t help but swallow hard.

Bai Xiaolang’s eyes flickered as he put on a sweet, obedient smile. "This is the nutritious meal my mama made. Would you like to try some, Auntie?"

Seeing the adorable little wolf cub, Bai Ruxin felt her heart skip a beat.

She was a full generation older than Bai Su, yet this little one called her "Auntie." ’What an absolutely heart-stoppingly cute little cub!’

Upon seeing the Snow Wolf ears on his head, Bai Ruxin quickly put two and two together and turned to Bai Su. "You really gave the Leader a son?"

Bai Xiaolang’s hand trembled involuntarily, and he didn’t dare look at Bai Xiaoshe beside him.

Bai Su had no intention of hiding it from her guests, so she admitted it matter-of-factly. "That’s right. Who else would it be?"

Bai Xiaolang beckoned obediently. "Come on, you guys. My mama’s cooking is famous far and wide. It’s really yummy, you know."

The aroma made Bai Ruxin’s mouth water uncontrollably. She also wanted to see what Bai Su was up to, so she nodded. "Fine."

She then pointed to the Lion Beastman beside her and introduced him to Bai Su. "This is Captain Yan Jiu of the military. He’s also the primary liaison for the Female Protection Institution, in charge of maintaining its security."

In other words, a military officer who sided with the Female Protection Institution.

Bai Su nodded at him and gestured them in. "Come in and sit down, both of you. It’s time to eat."

The Federation was said to be composed mainly of the Wolf Clan, the Lion Clan, and the Bear Clan.

If Lu Tingyan hadn’t been so overwhelmingly powerful, leading the Snow Wolf Clan to prominence, the Lion Beastman clan would have been the ones to produce the leader back in the day.

After all, Lion Beastmen were once the kings of the forest.

But they struggled to find suitable females, and most of their offspring failed to inherit their ancestors’ talents. They gradually declined, which allowed the up-and-coming Wolf Clan to surpass them.

This was also why the Lion Beastman clan sided with the Female Protection Institution. They wanted to use the institution to gain an advantage and match the Beastmen of their clan with more exceptional females.

Currently, the number of females in the Federation was dwindling. Females with good fertility and strong genetic inheritance were even rarer. Across the entire Federation, only the Bai family produced females in any significant number.

But as a Rabbit Beastman family with a high number of female births, the Bai family’s internal politics were also very complex.

The most promising branch of the family right now was the one descended from Rachel—namely, her daughter, Bai Xue.

Bai Xue had been bright and exceptional since childhood. With her excellent genes, she learned everything quickly. Furthermore, she had recently broken through to Level 5, proving she was a female with the potential to advance even further.

Aside from being a bit spoiled and having a somewhat naive and willful personality, she had almost no other flaws.
