Seven Cubs, Seven Fathers, Zero Days Off novel Chapter 200

Chapter 200: Chapter 198: How Beautiful Can She Be?

Looking past her, Shen Yue saw that Bai Chaosi’s seat was empty.

’It seems Xiao Ya only dared to come over now that Bai Chaosi is gone.’

’I just don’t know what she’s planning.’

Shen Yue watched her calmly.

"Something you need?"

The three curt words didn’t make Xiao Ya back down. Instead, she continued,

"Let me guess. You were just staring at A Xi’s seat. Could it be you were thinking about him?"

"Wondering where A Xi went?"

Shen Yue: "..."

’Does this woman think I’m some love-sick fool?’

’Besides, I was looking at the empty seat *next* to Bai Chaosi’s, not at his spot, was I?’

Beside her, Huang Ziyue’s brow furrowed slightly.

’This woman really knows how to take advantage of any opening. Stirring up trouble now that the fox is gone?’

Shen Yue looked at Xiao Ya with amusement and uttered a few light words:

"Wrong. Guess again."

Now it was Xiao Ya’s turn to be speechless...

Her expression stiffened. She hadn’t expected this woman to play along just to mock her.

She quickly adjusted her expression and resumed her faint smile...

She couldn’t let herself be defeated.

"Let’s forget it. What’s the point in guessing? I don’t know you well, so how could I possibly know what you’re thinking?"

"Besides, even if I were right, what could I do if you refused to admit it?"

Shen Yue listened, amused.

"So you *do* know we’re not familiar?"

She leaned forward slightly, her words exceptionally sharp.

"I was starting to think you were a mind reader, the way you were trying to guess my thoughts."

"What? You’ve spent a few days by Bai Chaosi’s side, and now you think you can show off to me? Did you come here to assert your presence?"

Xiao Ya froze instantly.

She had never imagined Shen Yue would be so direct.

She had completely exposed her hidden intentions.

That was exactly why she was here—to assert her presence. *She* was the one who could now stand openly by Bai Chaosi’s side.

’And this ugly monster could only hide behind a veil, sitting next to another ugly man.’

Their conversation had drawn the attention of those around them. Even Hu Tu’s two young children stopped their playing and ran over to Shen Yue’s table.

The two little ones looked at Xiao Ya and praised her generously.

"Wow, pretty sister!"

"You’re so pretty, sister! You’re the prettiest female I’ve ever seen!"

In truth, Xiao Ya had already drawn a great deal of attention when she entered the hall with Bai Chaosi.

After all, she was strikingly lovely, with a pair of lively, innocent almond eyes. Most of the banquet attendees were male, so how could they not be drawn to her?

But since she was sitting beside Mr. Bai of the Fox Clan, no one dared to stare.

Now that Mr. Bai had left and she had approached the woman in red on her own, those gazes fell upon her without restraint.

The gasps of admiration and praise from Hu Tu’s two children now voiced what everyone else was thinking.

This young female from the Rabbit Clan really was a beauty!

Hearing the children’s words and feeling the crowd’s eyes on her, Xiao Ya’s face took on a shy, demure expression.

She basked in their attention, then looked down at the two children on the floor with a humble expression.

"Oh no, I’m not nearly as beautiful as the lady before you. You probably don’t know this, but the women of the Flood Dragon Clan are each more beautiful than the last!"

"Compared to her, I’m nothing at all!"

At these words, all eyes turned to Shen Yue.

Everyone sized her up with curiosity.

They also marveled at the young Rabbit Clan female’s audacity. After all, the Rabbit Clan was at the very bottom of the food chain among the Beast Clans.

They were known to be the most timid.

In the presence of the Flood Dragon Clan, they might not even be worthy of a glance from a distance.

Yet here she was, not only completely unafraid of the imposing aura of a Flood Dragon Clan member, but getting close and even daring to speak to one.

Her courage was truly commendable.

The two children on the floor, about eight or nine years old, listened to Xiao Ya and blinked as they stared at Shen Yue.

"Really? Is this sister even prettier than you?"

"But why is she wearing a veil? Pretty sister, can you take off your veil?"
