Beast World: From Villainess to Cub-Raising Chef novel Chapter 64

Chapter 64: Chapter 64: Fighting to Be the Father

The System complained indignantly, "But his affection level shouldn’t have dropped that much! Weren’t you the one who saved him that night? And didn’t he seem to like you?"

Bai Su, however, wasn’t bothered. She only asked, "How many points were deducted?"

System: "No points were deducted."

Bai Su was surprised. "No points were deducted?"

The System nodded. "That’s right. Affection you’ve already gained is automatically converted into points for you to use. They aren’t taken back, otherwise, it would make calculating store purchases a mess."

Bai Su breathed a sigh of relief. "Then what are you so angry about? It’s not like we’ve lost anything."

’Besides... if points can’t be deducted, doesn’t that make these male leads like sheep that constantly produce wool, for me to shear again and again?’

’Torment them a bit to lower their affection, and when I’m short on points, I can just farm their affection levels again to cash in.’

’Their affection levels would never be maxed out, which means the points would never end?’

Bai Su’s eyes narrowed. She felt like she’d discovered a new business opportunity.

If the System knew what was going through her mind right now, it would probably feel compelled to light a candle for the four male leads.

It let out a faint sigh and tried to comfort Bai Su. "Don’t be sad. Li Chenlin just doesn’t realize how great you are. Once he does, he’ll fall for you!"

Bai Su nodded, amused. "Don’t worry, I don’t mind."

’He’s a complete masochist. Why should I care?’

Bai Su placed the beef and mutton into a stew pot, letting them cook in advance.

The Federation was located in the north, and by October, the weather had grown much colder. Pre-cooking the beef and mutton and letting them simmer on the stove actually enhanced their flavor.

Besides, these dishes sold much better once winter set in.

As she was busy working, a sudden commotion erupted outside.

It was Li Chenlin, who had forced his way in with his men.

Hearing the commotion, Bai Su rushed out of the kitchen, only to see the guards Lu Tingyan had assigned to protect her home knocked out on the ground.

Li Chenlin advanced menacingly, his eyes fixed on Bai Su.

Bai Su frowned slightly. "What are you doing here again?"

Li Chenlin looked at her in disgust. "I’m not here for you. I’m here for my own blood."

He had sensed his bloodline was nearby last time but had been unable to find it. Moreover, he had been ambushed by a rival, so his strength hadn’t yet recovered.

He had been recuperating ever since he returned.

The moment he saw that Bai Su was the fiery little female he had been obsessed with, he was instantly certain that the little Snake Beastman she had rescued was his child.

He was sterile and had only ever been with that despicable female, Bai Su, once in his life. If he truly had an heir, that woman must have used some trick to conceive.

Hearing the commotion, Bai Xiaolang and Bai Xiaoshe also came out, only to see the menacing Li Chenlin.

Li Chenlin’s eyes also fell on Bai Xiaoshe.

The little one was still so young, his silver hair and golden eyes nearly impossible to conceal.

The night had been too dark; he hadn’t noticed at all.

Bai Xiaoshe had yet to come of age or shed his first skin. There were distinct white snake scales on his neck and arms, and judging by their patterns, he was already a Level 7 Little Beastman.

That despicable female, Bai Su, had actually borne him such an exceptional child.

But that wouldn’t stop him from taking the boy away!

Li Chenlin entered his Beastification State, his snake tail lashing out to coil around Bai Xiaoshe.

Bai Su quickly jumped in front of her children. "You can’t take my children!"

Li Chenlin let out a dark sneer, his eyes on Bai Su as if she were some contemptible villain. "I am the child’s father. Among Snake Beastmen, the young must live with their paternal kin!"
