Beast World: From Villainess to Cub-Raising Chef novel Chapter 291

Chapter 291: Chapter 288: The Truth from Back Then

Leia was beyond excited, her face filled with anticipation at the thought of finally growing up.

Xiao Yi said from the side, "Don’t input too much. She can’t handle much Healing Power at once..."

Leia threw a shoe at him. "Cut the crap!"

She turned her head to Bai Su. "Go for it. I can take it."

Bai Su: "..."

Xiao Yi: "..."

Bai Su extended her spiritual power into Leia’s body.

Leia’s internal structure was bizarre.

Her body was that of a child, but her meridians were incredibly robust, like those of an adult.

No wonder she was so strong in a fight.

’Da Bao is the same way...’

’So does this mean that when Little Treasure reaches Level 10, he might be able to solve Da Bao’s problem?’

Bai Su focused, pouring her spiritual power into Leia’s body.

When she sensed that Leia’s meridians had reached their limit for absorbing spiritual power, she slowly withdrew.

Leia, who had been holding her breath, her face flushed red, grew anxious when she saw Bai Su stop. "Why are you stopping? Keep going! I can take it!"

Bai Su said, "Don’t push yourself. Your meridians are about to burst. It must be agonizing, right?"

Leia blustered, "It doesn’t hurt! I’m not in pain at all."

Xiao Yi sighed and put her shoe back on for her. "Don’t be impatient. We’ll take it slow."

"Bai Su is here now. Does another day or two really matter?"

Bai Su found this odd. With four Beast Husbands of her own, she was all too familiar with this kind of interaction.

The look in Xiao Yi’s eyes as he watched Leia was anything but platonic.

’Could they be...?’

Bai Su narrowed her eyes. "You two... are a couple, aren’t you?"

Xiao Yi froze for a second before breaking into a friendly smile. Just as he was about to speak, he was smacked in the face with a shoe.

Leia’s face turned beet red, her guilt all but written on it. "Y-y-you... you’re just a kid! Why are you asking so many questions? It’s none of your business!"

Bai Su snorted with laughter. It was the first time she’d ever seen Leia so flustered. "I never would’ve guessed. You can get embarrassed?"

Leia shoved Xiao Yi forward. "If... if you’ve got nothing better to do, then check on him too."

Now certain they were a couple, Bai Su stopped teasing and just looked at Xiao Yi. "Would you like me to check on you?"

Xiao Yi: "Do I get this as a family perk?"

Leia gritted her teeth. "Shut your mouth! Stop asking so many questions about a simple check-up!"

Bai Su nodded, smiling brightly. "It does."

Xiao Yi: "In that case, I’d be happy to accept."

Bai Su extended her spiritual power into his body.

After only a moment, she couldn’t help but frown. "Your body is so strange."

"Your meridians are this withered?"

Xiao Yi: "Mm..."

He regularly transferred his spiritual power to his beloved, hoping to break the seal that kept her from returning to normal.

In truth, Leia didn’t deny their relationship out of shyness.

It was because they had faced far too much judgment on their journey together.

Whenever they were seen together, anyone who found out about their relationship would look at Xiao Yi with contempt, thinking he was a pervert.

Leia had always had a carefree personality and couldn’t care less what others thought.

In fact, the more people feared her, the happier she was.

But she couldn’t stand seeing Xiao Yi get sized up like a pervert whenever they went out.

It would drive her crazy.

Over time, Leia had grown accustomed to this pattern of behavior.

Whenever someone discovered their relationship, her first instinct was to deny it.

It wasn’t out of shyness, but to protect him.

Xiao Yi knew all of this.

Bai Su cleared the blockages in Xiao Yi’s body with her spiritual power, her brows furrowed. "You can’t keep expending your spiritual power like this. Your body can’t handle it; you’ll collapse."

No wonder he looked so listless and sickly every time she saw him.

As if he were suffering from a chronic illness, ready to collapse at any moment.

Leia kicked him. "Did you hear that?"

Xiao Yi wasn’t annoyed. "Alright, alright."

’I’ll just see what tricks she has up her sleeve.’

Bai Su continued to channel her spiritual power, reconnecting the severed points in his brain.

Suddenly, the color drained from Luo’an’s face as a long-sealed memory was released in his mind.

His vision began to blur.

His body slowly sagged, as if he’d lost all control.

"Luo’an? Luo’an?" A gentle voice, one he hadn’t heard in ages yet knew so well, called out to him.

Luo’an slowly opened his eyes to meet the pure, innocent gaze of a young woman.

It was Alice, Yelias’s sister.

Luo’an stared at her, stunned. "Alice, you..."

Alice clung to his arm, pleading, "Please take me! That stuff is supposed to be delicious! Please!"

Luo’an looked at her, exasperated. "You silly girl, who eats fresh food?"

Alice: "I was looking through historical records from Ancient Blue Star, and I found out that the humans back then ate fresh food. I hear it tasted amazing!"

Luo’an: "But your surgery is tomorrow..."

Alice: "I’ll be fine! Don’t you have faith in my brother’s medical skills?"

Luo’an scoffed. "Him? He’s such a stick-in-the-mud. Your illness could be cured with my potion alone."

Seeing that he was about to start bickering with her brother again, Alice quickly changed the subject. "Oh, come on, you’re both brilliant!"

Luo’an crossed his arms and turned his head away. "If we’re both so brilliant, then why are you letting your brother operate? Don’t you trust me?"

"If I were treating you, you wouldn’t need surgery at all. And aren’t you the one who’s most afraid of pain?"

Alice: "Well, I am afraid..."

Luo’an: "You silly girl. Listen to me. Drink my potion, and you’ll be better in three days. No surgery required."

Alice: "But... my brother said..."

Luo’an’s expression soured. "And here you were, saying you trusted us both equally. If you don’t drink my potion, I’m not taking you mushroom picking."

Alice: "But if my brother finds out I took two types of medicine, he’ll yell at me."

Luo’an: "Don’t worry. My potion is not only undetectable, but it also works fast. Your necrotic organ will soon slough off, and a brand new one will grow in its place."

Alice clenched her jaw. "Alright, then!"

She took Luo’an’s potion and drank it in one gulp.
