Seven Cubs, Seven Fathers, Zero Days Off novel Chapter 199

Chapter 199: Chapter 197: What Are You Looking At, Young Lady?

As Shen Yue was lost in thought, she sensed a pair of eyes furtively staring at her.

The gaze was locked on her, like a predator watching its prey.

It made her feel uncomfortable.

She lifted her gaze slightly to look, only to find the spot was empty.

But she could have sworn the gaze had come from that direction just a moment ago.

As she frowned in confusion, another gaze, faint and almost nonexistent, fell upon her. She raised an eyebrow and looked back to see Xiao Ya, whose gentle, expressive eyes were smiling faintly at her.

But there was a hint of triumph mixed into that smile.

Seeing this, Shen Yue’s crescent-moon brows arched higher and higher, the corners of her lips turning up slightly... 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Then, before Xiao Ya could react, she tilted her head and flipped her off.

Xiao Ya: "..."

This brazenly provocative and coolly audacious gesture, combined with her disdainful look, left Xiao Ya speechless.

Although she didn’t understand what the woman meant by raising her middle finger, her instincts told her she was being mocked.

In that instant, her face turned completely red.

Bai Chaosi, of course, didn’t miss a thing. Seeing Shen Yue’s head-tilt and her utterly dismissive expression toward Xiao Ya, he felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction.

It was so infuriating and yet so secretly satisfying that he wanted to laugh.

He just loved how she was so brazen, so undisguised in her hostility toward any woman standing next to him.

’It’s like she’s unhesitatingly declaring her claim over me to them.’

Just like when she faced Jie Ying, she hadn’t shown him any deference. Anyone who displeased her would be met with a heavy counterattack.

She would never let herself be at a disadvantage.

Huang Ziyue naturally saw Shen Yue’s gesture, and he also saw the secretly pleased look Bai Chaosi shot toward Shen Yue.

An unfathomable darkness swirled in the depths of his eyes. Before Bai Chaosi could look away, he wrapped his arm around Shen Yue’s waist.

"Does your husband need to go vent your anger for you?"

’This woman is such an eyesore, and she dares to provoke Shen Yue. I really don’t want to let her stay any longer.’

Shen Yue’s lips curved into a smile as she listened, and she shook her head.

Seeing this, Huang Ziyue narrowed his eyes and swept his gaze over Bai Chaosi. The warning in his eyes was unmistakable, telling Bai Chaosi that if Xiao Ya dared to provoke Shen Yue like this again, he would personally gouge her eyes out.

Bai Chaosi’s gaze swept over the hand Huang Ziyue had wrapped around Shen Yue’s waist, then he looked away.

It was as if he hadn’t seen Huang Ziyue’s warning at all.

Just then, Shen Yue suddenly felt that same intimidating, predator-like gaze lock onto her again.

Instantly alert, she looked over once more.

But the spot was still empty.

Huang Ziyue had clearly sensed something as well, and he followed Shen Yue’s gaze.

But like Shen Yue, he saw nothing.

The aura around him shifted slightly as he secretly mobilized his spiritual power, probing in that direction.

Across from them, Bai Chaosi held his teacup, discreetly observing his surroundings.

After all, when he first entered, he too had sensed a subtle presence, something that seemed to appear and disappear by his side.

But whenever he tried to pinpoint it, it was as if it had vanished into thin air.

It made him wonder if he was just imagining things.

Just as the three of them keenly sensed that something was amiss...

At the entrance, Hu Tu walked straight in with his Female Master and two children.

His good-natured face and hearty laughter instantly drew everyone’s attention away from Bai Chaosi and toward him.

Everyone began to greet him.

Hu Tu nodded cordially to the crowd as he walked toward the table where Shen Yue, Huang Ziyue, and Wu Huo were seated.

Seeing this, Huang Ziyue and Shen Yue had no choice but to shift their attention.

Hu Tu, holding a wine cup a servant had handed him, approached with a smile and stood before their table.
