After becoming top guides, they are obsessed with

Chapter 621 Pretending Not to Know

Yu Xia really never wanted to see Raphael again.

She now strongly suspects that Raphael is deliberately tormenting her, which is why he's pretending not to remember her.

Otherwise, how could he be so clear about her physical reactions?
But she couldn't really ask Raphael that question; she had already asked him yesterday, and Raphael hadn't admitted it.

She didn't want to press the matter further; if she did, Raphael would have even more reason to keep her by his side.

When the time comes, the sea tribe will decide whether to help her conceal it if he's happy, or to expose her identity if he's not.

Now, whether he really knows or not, she can only pretend he doesn't.

After being entangled with Raphael for another half hour, Yu Xia quickly slipped away once their energy had largely merged and diffused.

She quietly made her way to the location of the sea creature convoy.

Raphael linked all the guides to the mental network, including her, but deliberately concealed her presence to avoid being discovered.

The guides have completed most of their task; now all that's left is for the sentries to evacuate the civilians.

Halfway there, Yu Xia saw Farrell standing next to her car in the distance, with Silver Teeth talking to him.

Seeing this, Yu Xia stopped and wiped her slightly swollen lips, thinking it would be better to go back later.

Yu Xia looked around, then turned to the other side of the street, deciding to wait until everyone had almost finished before going back.

Yu Xia activated her mental barrier, sat on the little dolphin, and strolled around the nearby streets while checking the mental networks of the guides.

The red dots in the mental network are turning white one by one, indicating that the hidden civilians have been found and taken away by the sentries.

The streets were filled with sentries and ordinary soldiers carrying people. Those who were less resistant were influenced by the guide's mental power and went to join the evacuation team on their own.

Yu Xia strolled around the street for a while, then stopped in front of a snack shop. Just as she was about to go in, a small golden dragon silently landed on her shoulder.

Yu Xia was startled. "Why didn't you make a sound?"

The little golden dragon affectionately nuzzled her cheek, circled in front of her, and gestured for her to follow it.

"."

Yu Xia looked around but didn't see Canulius.

She whispered, "Do I have to see you now? I'm still on a mission."

The little golden dragon cried out, turned its head to look at her, and flew forward.

Thinking of her deal with Canulius, Yu Xia had no choice but to follow.

As she walked through an alley, a long arm reached out and pulled her into the alley.

"Put me down!"

Canulius held her against the wall, kissed her cheek, and said, "I missed you."

Yu Xia: "Master, when you came to see me, didn't you have something to do?"

Canulius kissed her forehead again. "Call me Canulius. I've been busy all night. The heretics in this area have been cleared out. The rest can be left to my men."

Canulius ran his fingers across her slightly swollen red lips, which still carried the familiar scent of someone.

Yu Xia turned her head to avoid his hand and said, "Then you have to consider me a little. I can't always be away."

Canulius asked, "How late am I? An hour, half an hour, or five minutes ago?" He didn't spell it out, but Yu Xia already understood what he meant.

She wanted to explain, but then she thought, why should she explain? Right now, they were mortal enemies, and their relationship was a transaction.

“We just met yesterday. If you want to see me, you have to tell me in advance.” Yu Xia felt that she couldn’t indulge Kanulius. Otherwise, if he wanted to see her regardless of the occasion and she didn’t go, he might come looking for her. Given the sea people’s hatred for dragons, it could easily lead to trouble.

“Okay.” Canulius kissed her, his warm golden eyes reflecting her face. “Give me your contact code, let’s add each other as friends.”

Yu Xia's "okay" was stuck on her lips. She suddenly remembered that she was now using the Calebette terminal account, and her previous terminal was temporarily unusable.

“What’s your contact number? I’ll add you when I get back. There’s no signal here, so I can’t add you,” she said.

Yu Xia secretly rejoiced, thankfully there was no signal, otherwise she would have been exposed.

Kanulius took out a wristwatch-like device similar to a terminal and put it on her wrist. "This is a communicator specifically for contaminated areas, and it contains my communication code."

Yu Xia held the communicator up to her face and looked at it, saying, "That's fine then, Patriarch. Remember to let me know in advance if anything comes up."

Canulius pulled her up a little, burying his head in her neck and kissing her. "Your Highness, we didn't agree to these rules when we made the deal."

Yu Xia grabbed a strand of hair and pulled it back. "Remember, contact me before you need to reach me."

Canulius stared at her for a moment, then pressed his lips to hers.

An hour later, Yu Xia went to find Bello.

Before that, Yu Xia sprayed perfume she found in the store all over herself.

When Bello saw her return, her expression wasn't good, but she tried her best to maintain a calm and composed demeanor.

Yu Xia leaned closer to him and asked, "Smell me, does my perfume smell good?"

Bello, smelling the strong perfume on her, said, "Your Highness, you smell wonderful. There's no need for you to wear perfume. These perfumes don't smell good."

Yu Xia was relieved to see that he couldn't smell any other scents on her, but just to be on the safe side, she took out another bottle of perfume and sprayed it on herself. "I don't have a nose as sensitive as your Sentinels, so I can't smell the scents you're talking about. I just like perfume."

Upon hearing this, Bello said, "Then I'll find Your Highness a better perfume; these scents are too inferior."

Yu Xia also found it a bit pungent, but pretended to like it, "Really? I think it smells quite nice."

“Let’s go back, Your Highness.” Bello: “The people in this area have been mostly evacuated. We can move on to the next area now. Everyone is looking for us.”

Back at the convoy, the strong perfume emanating from Yu Xia made Yin Ya and the others frown.

"Little Potty, what did you spray on yourself?" Metis asked, rubbing his nose.

Yu Xia shook the cloth bag at her waist, showing them the various perfumes inside. "I just found a perfume shop and bought some perfume."

Silver Teeth: "It smells awful."

Yu Xia took out a bottle and sprayed it at them, "Where does it smell bad? You guys spray some too?"

The sea creature sentinels surrounding her all stepped back.

The Sea Clan is actually a very beauty-loving and particular race with a high overall aesthetic standard. They also use some fragrances, and the perfume in Yu Xia's hand smells too inferior to them.

Farrell stood still, his cold, gray eyes fixed on her without any emotion. "Where did you go?"

Yu Xia blinked at him and said, "I'm on an evacuation mission with Bello."

Farrell didn't say anything, but took a big step, grabbed her by the waist, and shoved her into the car.
