Beast World: From Villainess to Cub-Raising Chef novel Chapter 72

Chapter 72: Chapter 72: End of the Engagement Ceremony

Bi Yue walked over to give him a massage, glancing at the documents in his hands. "Father, since it costs so much to support these disabled Beastmen, why not just hand them over to Lu Tingyan?"

Bi He waved a hand dismissively. "They’re heroes of our clan, not some disposable cargo. Why would I just give them to Lu Tingyan? To hand him a favor for free? How would I ever be able to hold my head high in front of him again?"

Bi Yue pouted. "But those cripples have been dragging down our Bear Clan for a long time now."

Bi He shot her a glare. "Watch your words."

"If it weren’t for their sacrifices, would you be living such a comfortable life? Would you be able to go to the beauty salon several times a week? They took the brunt of the Southern Country people’s cannon fire with their own bodies. It’s our duty to provide for them."

Although unconvinced, Bi Yue nodded obediently. "Okay..."

Bi He let out a long sigh. "Alas, I know Lu Tingyan means well."

"But these disabled members of our Bear Clan are often met with cold stares, even within the clan itself."

"If I hand them over to him, it might be fine for a day or two. But how can I rest easy in the long run?"

"He can’t watch over the Disabled Tribe every single day. There’s no guarantee his subordinates won’t grow resentful over time and mistreat them."

A flicker of annoyance crossed Bi Yue’s eyes. ’With so many burdens, of course anyone would get annoyed.’

Bi He shook his head. "Don’t you think I know that? If only we could find a permanent solution for their disabilities... But never mind. There’s no point talking about it. Even Lanton Medical can’t fix them."

Bi Yue’s eyes glinted as she suddenly recalled Bablo mentioning that he wanted to recommend Bai Su.

A wave of disgust washed over her.

’Bai Xue was right. That bitch is a base female who insinuates herself everywhere and will stop at nothing.’

’If I hadn’t been lucky enough to catch it, that bitch might have really used that idiot Bablo to cozy up to my father.’

’Trying to curry favor with our Bear Clan Tribe?’

’In her dreams!’

After Bai Su and Lu Tingyan’s engagement ceremony, her status was essentially made public throughout the Federation.

Once the ceremony was over, Bai Su followed Lu Tingyan back to his villa.

His villa had an open-air hot spring that no one besides Lu Tingyan was permitted to enter.

Lu Tingyan led her to the edge of the hot spring, undressed her, and gently placed her in the water.

With a soft *pop*, the little rabbit reverted to her animal form. She floated leisurely on the surface, her little rabbit belly up, as the warm water flowed over her body, helping her relax almost instantly.

Lu Tingyan’s heart ached for her. "You’re exhausted, aren’t you?"

Bai Su shook her head. "I’m fine, I’m fine. It’s just my face that’s stiff."

’I have to go back to the restaurant tomorrow and open up.’

’Even though I’m engaged to Lu Tingyan now, I’m only staying the night because it got too late.’

’The little ones are still up on the mountain.’

Lu Tingyan said, "I’ll arrange for more soldiers to come help you."

Bai Su didn’t turn him down. Lately, the two little ones, Bai Xiaolang and Bai Xiaoshe, had been finding it more and more difficult. They would sometimes even doze off on their feet. She decided she would sort out the server situation this week.

Lu Tingyan suddenly asked, "By the way, is Li Chenlin at your place?"

Bai Su nodded. "He is. How did you know?"

Lu Tingyan scoffed. "You think the security system I installed for you is just for decoration?"

Bai Su blinked. "Um... it might be a little inconvenient for him right now."

’Yelias said he’s in a deep hibernation and will be hard to wake. The best way is to soak him in warm water for a week until he softens up, then use the aroma of food to coax him into waking up on his own.’

’I really didn’t expect this snake to be so delicate.’

Lu Tingyan raised an eyebrow. He reached out and poked the little rabbit’s tummy, pushing it under the water. "How is it inconvenient? Did you and he..."
