Seven Cubs, Seven Fathers, Zero Days Off

Chapter 112: Chapter 112: Going All Out for Love

Shen Yue swore.

From now on, she could never let these men drink again!

Because when they got drunk, they called her "Female Master."

It gave her the distinct feeling of keeping pets.

And most importantly, she was already taking care of a bunch of little ones; now she had to chase after a bunch of big ones too!

’What did I do to deserve this?’

She sat in a chair, watching Ye Lüqi rolling around on the floor in his sleep.

Actually, she’d had three main reasons for making this meal. First, to thank them for risking their lives to save her. Second, to deepen her relationship with them. And third... to compensate them on behalf of the original Shen Yue.

She knew perfectly well.

If her suspicions were correct, the original Shen Yue had deliberately gone to Beastification City, plotted against them, slept with them, and used them to bear children.

That meant they were the real victims here.

In this Beast World, the scarcity of females and abundance of males had led to a society where females were revered and males were subordinate. Of course, this "subordination" only really applied to mate selection, where males were indeed in a more humble position.

Therefore, in the eyes of the Beast World People, a man’s purity was far more important than a woman’s.

Once they had been slept with by a female, an imprint of that female would be left in their bloodline. That imprint could never be removed, proving they had been marked.

Other females might be willing to have relations with them, but they would never take them as official, recognized Beast Husbands.

They would be relegated to the fringes of society—males who could have casual relations but would struggle to ever be formally accepted by a female.

So, she could understand why these men desperately clung to her after finding her.

Though she wasn’t sure how much genuine affection they felt for her, their situation was clear: the original Shen Yue had slept with them, and she had even borne their children.

If they didn’t want to be slept with by another woman, get picked over by others, and end up as devalued, marginal males who could never be formally claimed, their only option was to recognize her as their Female Master and protect her with their lives.

All for the sake of getting her to grant them official status.

This was the competition between males.

’That’s why I understood their intentions from the start. Otherwise, there’s no way I’d believe these men fell for me at first sight.’

’But at the end of the day, the original Shen Yue was the one who took their purity. It’s completely understandable that they’ve come looking for me now!’

So, although she didn’t know what the original Shen Yue had been thinking, she now had to accept this debt of gratitude to the six men who had risked their lives for her, feelings or not.

Secondly, and most critically, was her and her children’s situation.

In the future, she would have to face a powerful, unknown enemy. She couldn’t do it alone. She might not be able to protect the children by herself.

So, she needed the strength of men. She needed them.

’As long as they’re genuinely good to the children and help me protect them,’ she thought, ’I’m willing to try and get along with them.’

Shen Yue tidied up the new bamboo house.

She packed everything that needed to be moved into her storage space, then transferred it all into the new house.

Since it wasn’t far away,

Shen Yue just loaded all the cubs onto her tricycle and drove them over.

Meanwhile, Huang Ziyue and the others were still passed out, some sleeping suspended in trees, others in a deep trance.

Only Bai Chaosi, Gu Fangqi, and Lan Cangyue were still conscious enough to stumble after her.

The scene was absurd: Shen Yue on her tricycle, being chased by a wolf, a fox, and a man blowing bubbles.

The three of them shouted as they chased:

"Female Master, don’t go!"

"Female Master, don’t abandon us!"

"Female Master, your little fox can’t live without you! Come back..."

Shen Yue: "..."

’Good heavens, thank goodness no one’s around to see this out here in the middle of nowhere. Otherwise, people would laugh their heads off!’

’I seriously regret not having a camera in my storage space.’

’I could have recorded this whole pathetic display. It would have become a permanent stain on their record they could never live down.’

And it wasn’t just her.

Hidden in the shadows, Bai Chaosi’s subordinates had just returned after recovering from their injuries, only to witness this exact scene.

The two subordinates simply couldn’t believe their eyes.

’That fox, chasing and shouting as he runs... is that our noble, pristine Young Master?’

The jaws of the two men nearly hit the floor.

’The Young Master is really putting it all on the line for love!’

But then they glanced at Lan Cangyue, who was running while blowing bubbles, and they felt a little better.

’Well, at least...’

’...there’s someone even more embarrassing than our Young Master!’

Shen Yue saw Lan Cangyue blowing more and more bubbles, and the corner of her mouth twitched...

’If this fish keeps this up, is he going to get dehydrated?’

When she arrived at the bamboo house, the little cubs saw their new home. It was even bigger and more beautiful than the last one, and they started jumping for joy.

"Wow! What a big house!"

"We have a new home!"

"Look, all our toys are here!"

Shen Yue looked at the toys in the yard, and the apricot tree.

And the fresh flowers and stone table placed to one side.

None of this had been here when she checked this morning. Yet in just half a day, the men had managed to recreate the exact layout of their old yard.

’And the original apricot tree was destroyed... Did Bai Chaosi go dig up a new one?’

She glanced around and saw that a ring of beautiful pink roses had been planted in the yard as well.

A smile touched her lips. ’Sure enough, when men actually put their minds to something, their efficiency is nothing to scoff at.’

While the children were playing outside, Shen Yue went into the house to organize things.

But just then—

She had just stepped into the house when footsteps sounded from behind her.

Shen Yue turned around.

And saw Bai Chaosi, who had already transformed back into his human form, stumbling toward her.

His stunning, jade-like face was flushed. His usually cool eyes were misty, hinting at a sense of grievance.

Shen Yue watched him approach, stunned by the emotion in his eyes, and before she could speak...

...he pulled her into his arms.

"Female Master, I don’t feel well."

His warm, seductive voice slipped right into her ear.

Shen Yue was held tightly in his embrace.

Her nose was pressed against his warm, solid chest, and a faint, fresh scent entered her nostrils.

She could hear his strong heartbeat and even feel the taut power in his muscles.

Her ears began to burn.

"Wh... where don’t you feel well?"

’Is it a headache? An upset stomach?’

’Logically, this premium dry red shouldn’t cause a hangover!’

’Good wine doesn’t give you a headache.’

So she thought.

But then—

Bai Chaosi grabbed her hand and, before she could react, pressed it against a certain... spot.

His voice was seductive and husky:

"Right here. This is what doesn’t feel well."

That scalding sensation...

It took Shen Yue a few seconds to process...

BOOM.

Her mind instantly short-circuited!

She reflexively tried to pull her hand away, but he held it fast, pressing it firmly against him.

The thing beneath her palm was radiating a ferocious heat...

Shen Yue’s face turned visibly red...

’Oh my god, this is going to be the death of me.’

’This fox!’

’This fox has no shame!’

Shen Yue nearly had a nosebleed. Her hand began to tremble.

"Hey, um, fox... how about we be a little more... prim and proper?"

’It was just too sudden!’

’Too direct! Too intense! She was completely unprepared for this!’
