After becoming top guides, they are obsessed with

Chapter 595 You want me to bow down and submit?
When Yu Xia saw the silhouette in the darkness, she suddenly didn't want to go in anymore.

Farrell's figure was hidden in the darkness, like a lurking beast that could pounce and devour her at any moment.

"What are you here for?" Farrell's voice rang out in the dark, silent office.

Yu Xia couldn't see his face clearly, but she could feel his gaze piercing through the darkness, as if questioning or scrutinizing her. It seemed to weigh heavily on her, carrying a slightly oppressive feeling.

"I"

"Get to the point," Farrell said in a businesslike tone.

Yu Xia heard a slight creaking sound from the chair. Farrell sat up straight, clasped his hands on the table, and said, "If there's nothing else, go outside."

“I still have a use for those two guides, give them to me.”

Yu Xia didn't bother with any other pleasantries and went straight to the point: "You can't just take people away without asking me. Don't forget, Chief Farrell, you're now my subordinate."

She met his gaze, and even though she felt a little intimidated, she didn't want to lose to him in terms of presence.

On her way here, she had already planned how to ask Farrell for the person. Who was she? She was now the royal family with the strongest sea race bloodline! Even without Queen Selius's status, all the sea races outside had to listen to her!

Farrell and she stared at each other in silence for a moment, then Farrell leaned back in his chair, the old chair creaking under its own weight.

"This is an office. Didn't Celius teach you that you should have the proper attitude when discussing business, Your Highness?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Xia hesitated for a moment before entering the office, but remained standing at the doorway, not getting close to Farrell.

As soon as she entered, the door closed behind her, cutting off the light from the hallway and making the room even darker.

Something silently drifted past Yu Xia, who noticed a subtle mental fluctuation and was startled.

She searched for the source of the mental fluctuations and saw a blurry shadow disappearing into the darkness.

That's Farrell's spiritual body?
"Come here." Farrell tapped his knuckles on the table.

Yu Xia composed herself and walked towards him.

"Why didn't you turn on the light?" she asked.

“I don’t like it,” Farrell said.

Yu Xia moved cautiously in the darkness. As soon as she stood in front of Farrell's desk, he stood up.

The moment Farrell moved, she instantly became alert and took a step back.

Farrell didn't approach her, but instead walked towards a certain part of the office. A moment later, Yu Xia heard the sound of the water dispenser being turned on.

A cup of hot water was placed in front of Yu Xia.

Seeing that she didn't react, Farrell grabbed her wrist and put the hot water in her hand.

Yu Xia felt the warmth from the water glass in her hand, and her tense nerves relaxed slightly. She politely said, as was her habit, "Thank you."

Only after she finished speaking did she belatedly realize that Farrell was now in her position, and there was no reason for her to thank him.

Yu Xia was somewhat annoyed by her mistake, but fortunately Farrell didn't seem to notice this small detail.

But he still held her hand, his palm supporting the back of her hand, then slowly moved to her wrist, his fingers caressing her skin.

When Yu Xia tried to pull her hand away, he stopped her first.

“Your body temperature has dropped,” Farrell said.

"Yeah, it's a bit cold outside, and the temperature in your base is quite low too."

Yu Xia answered almost instinctively.

After saying that, she felt that what she said seemed a bit wrong. Sea creatures shouldn't have high body temperatures, but she had felt normal body temperatures from Selius and Bello. Not all sea creatures are cold, right? "Give those two guides back to me. I'll take them back." Yu Xia held the water glass with both hands. The warmth of the water glass made her cold hands feel a little better.

Farrell stood beside Yu Xia without saying a word.

Yu Xia couldn't understand Farrell's thoughts, and the dim environment made her uneasy. "I have nothing else to say. If you don't give him back to me, I'll go find him myself."

Farrell walked around her once and then stopped behind her.

Yu Xia got goosebumps from his scrutinizing gaze, and the feeling she had when she stood at the door came rushing back.

She felt as if she had been captured by a bloodthirsty beast, which was considering whether to bite off her neck first or keep her as food.

Yu Xia gripped her water glass tightly, somewhat regretting coming alone like this. She should have called Silver Fang or Metis along.

Farrell placed a hand on her shoulder, and Yu Xia held her breath, not daring to move at all.

"Besides this, is there anything else you want to say to me?"

"Gone."

Yu Xiaqiang remained calm. As soon as she finished speaking, Farrell's body pressed against her, her back against his cold chest.

"Gone?"

Farrell bent down slightly and leaned close to her ear. "Think about it again."

Yu Xia felt his breath was icy cold, and her heart felt like it was being squeezed, making her stiffen.

"I came here to talk to you about this. Are you going to give them to me or not?"

Yu Xia couldn't stand the feeling of being haunted by a demon and immediately wanted to get away from Farrell.

The moment she moved, Farrell pressed down on her shoulders and pulled her even closer to his chest.

"Did you forget something?"

Farrell's hands gripped her like steel bars, his tone calm, yet Yu Xia felt immense pressure.

What did he mean by that? Could it be that he...
"You say you're my superior, and you want me to obey you." Farrell stared at her face, his long, cool hair falling over her shoulders. "You think you can make me bow down with just a few words? Aren't you being a little too naive?"

Yu Xia took a slow breath, suppressing the fear in her heart, and said, "I don't care what you want to do, at least here, you have to listen to me."

Farrell stared at her for a moment, his gaze falling on her long hair that emitted a faint glow in the darkness.

Her blue hair, which resembled Selius's, had become much lighter in color at that moment.

He lifted her long hair, revealing her slender, fair neck.

Yu Xia was startled, "What are you doing?!"

She was extremely wary of Farrell; even the slightest movement from him would trigger her defenses.

In the struggle, she let go of the water glass in her hand, and Farrell caught it quickly and placed it on the table.

"What are you afraid of?" Farrell turned her around, and before Yu Xia could react, he grabbed her waist and lifted her onto the desk.

Farrell braced himself on either side of her, blocking her escape route.

Yu Xia leaned back, "If you have something to say, say it. Don't get physical."

Farrell put one arm around her back to prevent her from dodging, "It seems you haven't just forgotten, you simply haven't taken me to heart at all."

Yu Xia: "?" Why did you suddenly bring this up?

Her mind raced at that moment, recalling that Farrell had worn the same outfit as her the night before, and she felt a mixture of surprise and uncertainty.
