Chapter 309: The Handmaid’s Tale

Chapter 309

Xavier gently brushed the melon seed from the corner of Chloe's mouth, his touch incredibly soft and unlike his usual commanding and authoritative demeanor as the Ancestor Lord.

After some time, the Werewolf Race leader Benny, who had been bent over in anger, finally began to recover.

He was helped to stand up straight, glaring furiously in Xavier and the others' direction, especially at Chloe.

However, Chloe didn't care if anyone was glaring at her. She even extended her hand in a friendly peace sign.

Benny nearly doubled over in anger again.

He swore he had never seen such an improper girl before!

Xavier was at least somewhat of a gentleman, so how did he end up with such a ruffian for a daughter?

With his subordinates calming him down, Benny managed to compose himself and said:

"If you want to enter, fine. But that army of millions behind you cannot."

Xavier didn't push on this point: "Alright."

Benny narrowed his eyes.

Once they entered Werewolf territory, wouldn't their fate be in his hands anyway?

Remembering how Xavier had led soldiers to blow up his research facility a few years ago, leaving it an empty shell, Benny felt a surge of anger.

Though he had already moved everything important out of that facility, Xavier's brazen entry into Werewolf territory still felt like a harsh slap to Benny's face.

This time... he must avenge that humiliation.

With this in mind, Benny revealed a ferocious smile and said in a low voice:

"In that case, you may enter."

Chloe's gaze fell on Benny's overly wide tooth gaps, her brows furrowing imperceptibly.

She wanted to say something, but seeing his still pale face after nearly doubling over in anger, she ultimately held back.

Never mind, let him keep some final dignity.

Though this leader was indeed quite dirty, surely the Werewolf Race as a whole couldn't be...

As it turned out, the Werewolf Race wasn't universally dirty - Benny just stood out as exceptionally filthy.

This became apparent as soon as they entered Werewolf territory.

Chloe had always thought the Werewolves did a good job with landscaping, but now she saw they had practically built their homes right in the forest.

Most of the Werewolf territory was this vast forest, and the werewolf citizens' dwellings were integrated into the woods.

Houses, supermarkets, schools - all these structures were built within the forest, looking not only unobtrusive but remarkably harmonious.

Chloe found it quite fascinating.

Moreover, the werewolf citizens on the streets were mostly clean.

On the contrary, they seemed to love cleanliness, especially the girls.

Wearing pretty dresses, sporting cute hairstyles, with clean faces and the fresh scent of forest herbs about them.

Completely different from Benny's sour stench.

Chloe felt instantly refreshed.

Not many were allowed to enter Werewolf territory. Besides Xavier, there was Chloe and her friends, plus a few of Xavier's trusted aides.

Not many, just three or four.

They were all tall and handsome, attracting 100% of the looks when walking together.

Though none of them particularly cared.

Daniel hadn't been back for a long time, and his eyes were full of nostalgia.

He walked beside Chloe, with Katherine and Qin Huaibei on the other side.

As they walked, Daniel pointed out various places:

"See that sweet soup shop? My dad used to take me there often, it was so sweet."

"And that old man selling tanghulu... Oh, it's his son selling now? I was wondering how he suddenly got so much younger, thought he'd found the fountain of youth..."

"Oh, and that cake shop, their mousse isn't good, but the pudding is decent."

"Want to try some?"

At this time, Xavier was walking at the front, his gaze sweeping over the bustling market street, occasionally discussing things with his aides beside him.

He looked every bit the serious, hardworking elite.

In contrast, behind him, Chloe...

She was already excitedly eating and drinking her way through town with Daniel.

The Werewolf cuisine was quite good, all natural and additive-free food with a subtle sweet flavor that was very fragrant.

Chloe followed him from the sweet soup shop to the tanghulu stand, then from there to the cake shop.

Hmm... the caramel pudding was indeed delicious.

Chloe and her friends each got one, and after buying them realized Xavier had stopped walking up ahead, seemingly waiting for them, so they hurried to catch up.

To avoid appearing too carefree, Chloe even brought a pudding for Xavier. ƒreewebɳovel.com

The moment he saw that caramel pudding, the usually composed Xavier's face showed a crack in his expression.

Stifled laughter could be heard from the aides behind him.

Xavier put on a stern face, looking seriously at Chloe.

He really wanted to know - what on earth made her think that the high and mighty Ancestor Lord would like to eat pudding?

However, Chloe's thinking was simple - I went out of my way to bring you pudding, eat it if you want, if not then forget it.

Seeing Xavier's hesitation to take it, Chloe frowned unhappily, thinking if you won't eat it then I will. She was about to take it back when she heard a sigh from above.

Then, the pudding was taken from her hand.

Xavier's face remained expressionless as he stuffed the entire pudding in his mouth and swallowed it. He then patted Chloe's head and turned back to continue talking with his aides.

Acting as if he hadn't just performed the feat of swallowing a whole pudding in one go.

Chloe couldn't help but curl her lips in a slight smile.

Qin Huaibei leaned in and said softly: "If you want to laugh, go ahead."

Chloe: "Better not, my dad probably still cares about his image."

Daniel chimed in from the other side: "You dared to hand pudding directly to your dad to eat, and you're still worried about his image?"

"What's wrong with pudding?" Chloe retorted righteously, "It's just pudding. My dad is the Ancestor of the Vampire clan, is he not worthy of eating it?"

Everyone: "..."

Daniel said wryly: "You know that's not what I meant."

Chloe shook her head: "That's not important."

With that, she continued walking forward, humming a tune.

The place where the Werewolves hosted distinguished guests was not far away, a large and luxurious treehouse.

Before entering, Chloe remembered something and turned to ask Daniel: "Aren't you going to stay at your own house?"

Hearing this, Daniel was struck as if by lightning: "You want me to stay alone? Are you even human?"

He rushed past Chloe and continued climbing: "I don't care, I'm staying here with you all."

The young wolf took the stairs two or three at a time, scrambling up.

Chloe looked back and saw Xavier simply spread his wings and flew up.

Of course, the Ancestor Lord's noble feet weren't meant for climbing tree ladders.

Once inside, Chloe discovered that a Werewolf maid had been assigned to the treehouse.

This maid had visible ears, fluffy light chestnut hair, and a gentle, beautiful appearance.

Chloe stared at her for a while before asking: "What are you here for?"

The maid gave a gentle smile and replied in a soft voice:

"The leader sent me to attend to the daily needs of our esteemed guests."
