Seven Cubs, Seven Fathers, Zero Days Off

Chapter 55: Chapter 55: But, Will She Accept This?

Because Shen Yue had woken up just after the men had been discussing how she’d borne them sons, she had absolutely no idea why they had all shown up at her door.

And when Mu Silin finished speaking, the other four men in the forest looked as if they had been struck by lightning.

They all stared in disbelief at the person sleeping soundly in Bai Chaosi’s arms.

’So, by some twist of fate, they had annulled their marriages with A Yue?’

’Only to clear the way for this Leopard?’

Mu Silin enjoyed watching their expressions shift back and forth, feeling quite pleased with himself.

As he spoke, he glanced at Ye Lüqi and twisted the knife.

”Golden Lion King, it’s not just that annulling a marriage is difficult now; securing one is just as hard. After all, females are so rare. And this is a female whose marriage you already annulled. Tell me, do you think she’ll ever forgive the man who repeatedly declared his disdain for her?”

”Therefore, I’m the one who is qualified to marry her. You’ve lost this time.”

Ye Lüqi couldn’t believe his ears.

’How is this possible?’

”Impossible. How could she be the Duchess?”

He had seen her once from a distance. That Miss Shen Yue of the Duke Mansion was supposed to be ugly and act erratically, as if she weren’t all there. How could she look like this?

The three subordinates behind him were also stunned.

Their eyes darted back and forth to the woman in Bai Chaosi’s arms.

The Duchess’s terrible reputation was known far and wide. A few months ago, she had ruined her name in Beastification City, was stripped of her noble title, and exiled...

At this thought, the three men’s eyes widened.

’Exiled?’

’Isn’t this barbaric land the place of exile?’

Ye Lüqi thought of this as well, and his handsome face grew stiffer and stiffer.

’To think that Miss A Yue was actually the Shen Yue he had so vocally disdained.’

Bai Chaosi’s eyes flickered as he looked down at the woman in his arms.

He didn’t feel particularly pessimistic.

A glimmer of light appeared in his eyes. ’It must be fate.’

’To think that the woman who could capture his heart and stir his passions was actually his betrothed, Shen Yue of the Duke Mansion?’

Although, this news was also quite a shock to him.

He didn’t understand why the rumors had painted her in such a light.

But the fact that he had traveled thousands of miles to find her was proof that they were meant to be together.

’As for the annulment, as long as I quickly send someone to intercept the annulment letters being handled by the elders, the marriage shouldn’t be dissolved.’

An idea struck him, and he immediately glanced in the direction where his subordinates were hidden.

’He who strikes first, wins.’

His subordinates instantly understood the look in his eyes.

One of them immediately transformed into a White Fox and vanished from the spot with incredible speed.

’Good heavens!’

’What a bombshell!’

’The Young Master’s fiancée is actually the woman he’s been searching for all this time!’

’And so many males from the royal family are competing with the Young Master for her!’

’Weren’t the rumors that the Duchess was plain and infertile?’

’Those are complete lies!’

’Bah, damn those liars!’

’I have to run faster. This marriage cannot be annulled, no matter what.’

’The Young Master’s happiness rests on my four hooves!’

Meanwhile, Lan Cangyue felt a wave of anxiety.

Just a moment ago, he had been hoping his marriage had already been annulled by the Queen Mother and King Father, but now he was terrified that it really had been!

When the Queen Mother and King Father had asked him about the annulment, he hadn’t taken it seriously.

He didn’t know if the Queen Mother and King Father had actually gone through with it. If they had, he would have to return to the Undersea Palace and personally ask his King Father and Queen Mother to go to the Land Royal City once more to renegotiate the marriage.

He couldn’t lose to these men. He was determined to win this Female Master.

Just then, one of Huang Ziyue’s subordinates appeared silently beside him.

He had witnessed the chaotic scene of the men confronting one another and had overheard their conversation.

He looked at Huang Ziyue.

Huang Ziyue’s eyes questioned him about the results.

The subordinate’s face looked constipated as he gave Huang Ziyue a guilty, silent nod.

The results of his investigation were the same.

Just as the Great Emperor Master had suspected, this Miss A Yue was indeed Miss Shen Yue from the Duke Mansion, who had been exiled all the way from the Royal City to this Wilderness.

His jaw had practically hit the floor when he found this out.

After all, they had gone to great lengths to annul the marriage with the Duchess.

But now, overnight, the Duchess had become the female mother of the Little Young Lord, the one the Great Emperor Master had traveled thousands of miles to find.

’Who could have imagined it?’

Not only had she given birth to the Little Young Lord for the Great Emperor Master, continuing the bloodline of their Flood Dragon Clan, but she also possessed the legendary SSS+ fertility, knew how to cook, had Fire Control, and most importantly, she was beautiful and loving. She was probably the most unique existence in this Beast World.

If word of this got out, the entire Royal City would be shaken to its core!

And they had annulled their marriage with such a precious Miss Shen Yue!!

Now, the obstacle before the Great Emperor Master was not just the competition from other men or the small matter of him ”stealing” the child, but the lingering resentment from their annulled marriage.

’It was one difficulty piled on top of another!’

Mu Silin took in the expressions in everyone’s eyes.

He looked at Ye Lüqi.

”Why is it impossible? You can find out if she’s the Duchess with a simple investigation.”

Moreover, a thought suddenly struck Mu Silin.

’If they were all the males who had mated with Shen Yue back in Beastification City, does that mean... according to the rumors, the Duchess, Shen Yue, had stormed into Beastification City in a rage, had relations with several strange males, and even severely injured a few innocent ones, leading to her being disowned by the Duke Mansion and stripped of her noble title... were they the main culprits behind all that?’

’All the suffering Shen Yue had endured on her journey, the danger of giving birth alone—was all of it caused by them?’

’If they hadn’t insisted on annulling the marriages and pushed her to this point, she wouldn’t have run off to Beastification City to vent her anger.’

’She wouldn’t have so coincidentally met them while they were in Beastification City, become pregnant with their children, and then been exiled.’

’But if none of that had happened, they would never have met the Shen Yue of today. They might have remained deceived by the rumors forever.’

’So, in a way, it all seemed to make sense. It had all come full circle to create the present outcome. And the present outcome seemed good—they all had children now.’

’The only bad part was the injustice and harm she had suffered in the process.’

The other four men, being just as clever, naturally thought of the same things Mu Silin had.

Their brows furrowed, and they all looked in unison at Shen Yue in Bai Chaosi’s arms.

A thick wave of guilt washed over them.

’From now on, they had to make it up to her.’

’Apologize, admit their mistakes, beg for her forgiveness, stay by her side, dote on her, hold her in the palm of their hands, and cherish her in every possible way.’

’But... would she be willing to accept any of it?’

Shen Yue, of course, had no idea about the inner drama unfolding in their minds. All she felt was their terrifying silence.

It was dreadfully quiet.

The wind didn’t even dare to blow past them. She felt like she could hear a pin drop.

’I’m so nervous. Have they figured out I’m awake?’

’Why aren’t they talking? Say something!’

’Oh my god, this is torture.’
