Seven Cubs, Seven Fathers, Zero Days Off novel Chapter 197

Chapter 197: Chapter 195: City Lord Hutu

Shen Yue’s gaze remained fixed on Bai Chaosi. When she caught his eyes sweeping over her, a glance so faint it might have been her imagination, she narrowed her own.

But it was only for an instant.

Just as she was about to investigate further, he was already leading Xiao Ya toward the gate, step by step.

It was as if that glance had been nothing but her imagination.

Huang Ziyue pulled Shen Yue tightly into his arms, his gaze icily fixed on Bai Chaosi. He watched as the man, looking completely unfazed, led Xiao Ya right past them as if they weren’t even there.

Instinctively, his heart aching for her, he sheltered Shen Yue within his broad embrace, offering her his steadfast support.

Just then, the main gates to the City Lord Mansion slowly swung open. A group of attendants in green robes stood inside. From their very center, a man less than half an adult’s height walked out, his round belly jiggling. He had a guileless face, sharp fangs, and a pair of pointed gray ears.

His eyes narrowed into slits as he smiled, like a lazy cat. Cupping his hands in a salute toward Bai Chaosi, who stood before the gate, he exclaimed in amazement:

"Oh my! Are you truly Mr. Bai of the Snow Ridge Clan?"

Bai Chaosi, gentle and modest, bowed slightly in return:

"I am indeed. It is an honor, Hu Tu City Lord!"

Li City’s Lord, Hu Tu, instantly widened his eyes, finding it simply incredible:

"I never would have imagined! Not only has the Flood Dragon Clan arrived in my Li City these past few days, but now we are also graced by the presence of the Bai Family from the Snow Ridge Clan!"

"Everyone says the members of the White Fox Clan are born as beautiful as Immortals. Seeing you now, Mr. Bai, you are truly just as the legends of the Snow Ridge Fox Clan describe—divinely handsome!"

According to legend, the Nine-tailed Fox Clan was the noblest among the Fox Clan. Currently, there were only two high-ranking, pure-blooded branches left: the Fire Fox Clan of the Ye Country’s Royal Family, and the reclusive Nine-tailed White Fox Clan of Snow Ridge.

And it was said that the Nine-tailed White Foxes were born with extraordinary looks, each one peerless.

They were natural-born nobles, untouched by the dust of the mortal world.

And Bai Chaosi, standing before them now, was the very picture of those legends—incomparably noble, like an immortal gracing the mortal realm.

Hu Tu stared at Bai Chaosi as if he were dumbstruck.

And in doing so, he had voiced the thoughts of everyone at the gate.

They had truly never seen such a beautiful man. He was so beautiful they dared not look at him directly, as if a second glance would be a desecration.

Bai Chaosi offered a faint smile:

"Hu City Lord, you flatter me. My aptitude is mediocre; I am but one of the most ordinary members of the Snow Ridge Clan!"

Hu Tu chuckled, his expression endearingly guileless:

"Not at all! Although the Snow Ridge Fox Clan has not appeared in the world for many years, we all know that every member of the White Fox Clan is extraordinary!"

"Besides, in your written reply, you mentioned your surname is Bai. I assume you must have some connection to the Snow Master’s Bai Family of Snow Ridge. I wonder... is the world-renowned Young Master of the White Foxes, the famous Young Master Chaoxi, doing well these days?"

Hearing this, Xiao Ya, who was standing beside him, widened her eyes. ’Young Master Chaoxi?’

’Isn’t that Bai Chaosi’s name!’

’Could it be that this incomparably noble man beside her was the legendary Young Master of the White Fox Clan?’

’Was his status truly that noble?’

She had thought he was a noble, but she never imagined his status was *this* high!

So high that she could only gaze up at him from afar—a chasm in status that she could likely never cross, not even in a dozen lifetimes.

At this moment, she was so excited her heart felt like it was about to leap out of her chest.

She had originally thought that Bai Chaosi’s name was just a coincidence, the same as that genius young master.

But she never expected that he *was* the Young Master of the Nine-tailed White Foxes, the world-renowned, the astonishing Young Master Chaoxi!!

She fought to suppress the urge to jump for joy, her face flushing with excitement as she gazed at the man before her.
