Seven Cubs, Seven Fathers, Zero Days Off novel Chapter 54

Chapter 54: Chapter 54: Where Did They Get the Nerve to Come Looking?

A smile hung on Mu Silin’s handsome face.

His eyes watched him leisurely as he slowly began to speak, his words laden with hidden meaning.

"How could I possibly break off the engagement? This general is not like some people—fickle and flighty, falling for every new person they see. They act on hearsay, disregard their fiancée’s feelings, and break off engagements on a whim. I despise such scumbags. That’s why I could never bring myself to break off this engagement!"

Upon hearing this, Huang Ziyue frowned.

The tension in his heart stretched even tighter.

He had a feeling the Black Panther’s words were confirming his suspicions!

Ye Lüqi, however, failed to catch the underlying meaning. With a look of surprise, he jeered:

"You haven’t broken the engagement, yet you’re here trying to steal a woman from me? Hurry up and get back to your Muxue City and marry that female you’re politically engaged to! Or, you can compete with this king after you’ve broken it off."

"But then again, you’ve never been a match for me, not since we were kids. And when it comes to winning a woman, you have even less of a chance!"

His boastful confidence was so impressive that his three subordinates behind him couldn’t help but applaud.

Well said, Your Majesty!

This is the spirit! We have to fight for Miss A Yue to the very end!

We can’t back down!

We must crush the Black Panther Royal Family’s arrogance!

Ye Lüqi smoothed his sleeves, radiating the aura of a king, and added:

"But I have to tell you, breaking an engagement isn’t so easy these days. It took me quite some time to break things off with that ugly female from the Duke Mansion."

"If you want to compete with me after you break your engagement, it’ll be tough. It’ll probably take you some time, and by then, Miss A Yue and I might already be inseparable."

Shen Yue, who had been awake for some time:

"..."

’What a scene.’

’Maybe I should just go back to sleep.’

After someone pinched her waist, which had hurt, she had wanted to keep sleeping, but their voices were simply too loud.

They had woken her right up.

Once fully awake, she realized she was surrounded by so many men.

She was even being held in someone’s arms. She figured that staying perfectly still and feigning sleep was her best option.

Although she couldn’t open her eyes, she didn’t miss a single irritating word of their conversation.

She was afraid she wouldn’t be able to hold back from rushing over and landing a couple of solid punches on that arrogant, conceited man.

’I’ll teach him a thing or two about a female’s status.’

’Inseparable with me?’

’He must be dreaming.’

Moreover, she could tell from the Black Panther General’s words that he had likely been here for some time.

’He even overheard what I said to Si Muye and knows the word ’scumbag’. He uses it quite well, too.’

’Judging by how long he’s been here, it seems this Black Panther General is the one who secretly saved me and Er Bao.’

Shen Yue tried to quiet her breathing, keeping perfectly still as she continued to eavesdrop on the men tearing each other apart.

At this moment, Lan Cangyue’s eyes showed a flicker of shock as he listened to Ye Lüqi.

He wondered, ’He must have successfully broken off his engagement with that ugly female, right?’

’Otherwise, with an existing engagement, he wouldn’t necessarily be able to compete against these other men.’

Meanwhile, Mu Silin listened, looking at Ye Lüqi as if he were an idiot.

Then, as the others were lost in their own varied thoughts, he almost laughed out loud.

"I’d say you haven’t been the Golden Lion King for nothing."

"You’ve just gotten stupider the longer you’ve held the title!"

Ye Lüqi’s face darkened.

’This brat can’t win against me, so now he’s resorting to personal attacks, is he?’

Mu Silin continued with a smile:

"You really did a good thing, breaking off that engagement. I almost want to applaud you."

"In fact, I should really thank you for clearing the way for me."

Ye Lüqi stared at him, his tone turning cold:

"What do you mean?"
