Seven Cubs, Seven Fathers, Zero Days Off novel Chapter 164

Chapter 164: Chapter 162: He Cannot Be Without Shen Yue, Cannot Be Without Liu Bao.

How many times had they fantasized about getting along with their children like this, only to find they simply didn’t know how.

They couldn’t let go of their pride either.

And the children would never be this relaxed, happy, and unguarded around them.

’Is it really because we don’t know how to be fathers, or is it because we’re just that terrible?’

This was the scene Bai Chaosi awoke to.

Hearing his own son call another man "Father," he felt as if he’d been plunged into an icy abyss.

’How could Liu Bao call another man Father?’

’I’m right here.’

’I’m his father.’

’Did he make a mistake?’

Bai Chaosi slowly got to his feet, watching how happy and at ease Liu Bao was with Si Muye.

His heart felt like it had been viciously gouged out with a knife.

He looked at Liu Bao and tentatively called out,

"Fuxue, Liu Bao... Father is here."

WHOOSH.

The little cubs and Si Muye immediately looked over.

They saw a limping fox slowly approaching, its fur stained with patches of blood.

It was obviously severely injured.

Si Muye paused, slightly stunned.

’This fox... it has nine tails. Is it from the Nine-tailed Fox Clan of Snow Ridge?’

He glanced at Liu Bao.

’This fox called himself Liu Bao’s father. Does that mean... he is Liu Bao’s real father?’

Liu Bao watched Bai Chaosi walk over, his little face sinking as he said angrily,

"You are not my father! I don’t want you as my father! From now on, I only have one father, and that’s Ancient Bear Father!"

Bai Chaosi froze in his tracks.

His heart felt as if it had been seized in a tight grip, squeezing the air from his lungs. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

He opened his mouth to speak.

"Liu Bao, listen to Father’s explanation. Last night, I..."

"I don’t want to."

Though Liu Bao was just a little boy, his temper was just like Shen Yue’s—he couldn’t stand being wronged in the slightest.

He cut Bai Chaosi off directly.

"Liu Bao doesn’t want to listen! Female Mother already said that from now on, you have nothing to do with me."

His voice was fierce in a childish way, and his tone was extremely harsh.

"It’s useless even if you explain! Liu Bao is already sad, and Female Mother is sad too. We don’t need you anymore!"

"Go away!"

Children always speak their minds. They say whatever they’re thinking. And it’s always the truth.

So as Bai Chaosi listened, a deep, stabbing pain pierced his heart, and his eyes reddened.

How could he not know they no longer needed him?

But he needed them. He couldn’t be without them.

He couldn’t be without Shen Yue, and he couldn’t be without Liu Bao.

Listening from the side, Si Muye guessed that something must have happened last night to cause this rift between Liu Bao and the fox.

It also seemed that a lot had happened in the month he’d been away.

’If this fox is Liu Bao’s father, then the other five must be the fathers of the other children.’

’But if they’re all the children’s fathers, why were they nowhere to be found when A Yue was giving birth?’

’They let A Yue endure her pregnancy all alone and give birth by herself in the barren wilderness.’

’Since they were capable of abandoning their mate and children back then, what are they doing showing up now?’

Bai Chaosi looked at Liu Bao with red-rimmed eyes.

"Liu Bao, I know that last night Father hurt you and your female mother. It was Father’s fault, but... can you trust Father just one more time?"

"Can you give Father another chance?"
