After becoming top guides, they are obsessed with

Chapter 625 Why don't I hate her at all?

Once on the third floor, Mingye skillfully broke free from Yu Xia's grasp and stepped aside, maintaining a proper distance from her.

Yu Xia smiled secretly at his actions. He was afraid that the Ivys would see this and hold him accountable.

She deliberately startled Mingye by taking a step closer to him, and he immediately moved away by the same distance.

Yu Xia took a step forward, and he took a step back.

After going back and forth like this a few times, Naruno turned to the side and said in a cold tone with a hint of helplessness, "Your Highness, the reception room is just ahead."

Yu Xia stopped teasing him and followed him to the reception room.

She sat in the drawing room for a few minutes, and then Yunsha and Margaret brought Ivy and the others over.

Yu Xia glanced at the Ivy group but didn't see Raphael.

Has he not returned yet?
Yu Xia's mental energy was in a shielded state, and she dared not use it casually even in the Holy City's territory.

Now, the guides in the North Sixth District are all in the same mental network under Raphael's leadership. She is afraid of being exposed, so she checks on them only through Raphael's mental threads.

"Your Highness, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting," Yun Sha said gently and politely.

Yu Xia stood up and nodded slightly to them, neither appearing too arrogant nor disrespectful, thus befitting her status as a sea princess.

"What brings the princess here at night?" Margaret asked.

Yu Xia handed the box to Margaret, saying, "At the banquet last time, my subordinate offended the elder. He has been busy with his mission these past few days and has not had a chance to apologize to the elder. I only just found the time now."

Margaret looked at her with some surprise. She hadn't taken the incident that day to heart at all. In the past, the Holy City and the Sea Clan had countless conflicts. When they really fought, they were always aiming to kill each other. They never thought about apologizing.

She didn't take Yu Xia's words seriously at all, but she didn't expect her to actually come.

The other Ivy members looked at each other in bewilderment.

They had just heard that the sea princess had come to pay her respects, and they hadn't even eaten or bathed, just wanting to come and see her.

Ever since they met this sea princess, the Ivi have always been inexplicably curious about her.

However, they were mortal enemies of the sea creatures and had always harbored hatred and prejudice against them. Even their curiosity was never revealed; they only spoke to her briefly in private.

“Your Highness is too kind.” Margaret hesitated only for a moment before accepting the box. “Since the princess has already apologized for this, then…”

"Your Highness," Yun Sha interrupted Margaret, smiling as she said to Yu Xia, "I heard that Your Highness has been leading the sea tribe day and night to search for civilians and heretics these past few days. You must be very tired."

Yu Xia maintained a distant and indifferent expression, saying, "This is a common task for everyone, and I also want to complete the task and return to the ocean as soon as possible."

Yun Sha said, "Seeing His Highness fight the Tiger Tribe leader in the arena that day was truly an eye-opener for us."

Yu Xia didn't understand Yun Sha's meaning, but a sense of vigilance still welled up in her heart.

Yun Sha may seem gentle and easy to talk to, but in some ways she is much more perceptive than Margaret.

"It was just a small competition, nothing special," she replied succinctly.

Yun Sha nodded, "So, Your Highness's strength has not yet been fully displayed. If Your Highness returns to the ocean, I believe there will be few who can rival you."

Yu Xia replied without batting an eye, "Of course, I am the highest-ranking member of the Sea Clan. If I weren't on land, even ten more Tiger Tribe leaders wouldn't be a match for me."

Why is it that it feels a little smug to brag in front of acquaintances?

Especially in front of Yun Sha and Margaret, she had been raised by Yun Sha and Margaret since childhood. Although they were not her mothers, they were more like mothers to her.

When she talks to them, she can't help but feel a little cocky.

Yunsha caught the prince's subtle expression and smiled.

Margaret scoffed inwardly, thinking that although the princess was young, her temperament was still like that of a child.

"I wonder if Your Highness has had dinner?" Yun Sha changed the subject, saying, "Would Your Highness do us the honor of dining with us?" Yu Xia wanted to say that she had already eaten, but since her purpose for this trip was to improve relations between the Sea Clan and the Holy City, she said, "I ate a little, but it wasn't to my liking."

Yun Sha said, "Then Your Highness must not be full yet. Your Highness, please take a look and see if our food suits your taste?"

Yu Xia nodded in agreement and went to the third-floor restaurant with Ivy and the others.

Although the water and electricity were cut off, it was only recently, and the hotel still has plenty of food supplies.

The food in Ivi wasn't as refined as in the Holy City, but it was still quite delicious.

Yu Xia had already eaten a lot when she arrived. She usually has a good appetite, and Bello had figured out her tastes, so she tried her best to cook things she liked.

So every time she eats, she stuffs her stomach full.

Yunsha probably knew that she had already eaten, so she simply had someone place a vegetable salad and yogurt in front of her.

Yu Xia thought to herself that Yun Sha was the most thoughtful. She had just put a piece of salad into her mouth with her fork when a plate of meat patties with sauce was pushed in front of her.

She turned her head and saw that Jorena had just withdrawn her hand and was silently eating the food in her bowl.

Margaret pushed another plate of chilled fish fillets in front of her.

Yu Xia couldn't eat that much either. She forked a piece of pork chop and a piece of fish from each of the two dishes and pushed the rest back to them.

Yunsha observed the sea princess's behavior to guess her temperament.

Yun Sha raised an eyebrow slightly when she saw that Yun Sha clearly couldn't eat anymore, but still forked a small piece from the two dishes as a gesture.

This little princess's personality is quite different from that of the sea people.

The Ivy and her companions ate quietly, with only the slight clinking of their cutlery.

This scene was somewhat strange to the Ivi, not because it was quiet, but because they were actually eating with the sea princess.

When Yun Sha invited the sea tribe princess, they didn't think of objecting; in fact, they were somewhat looking forward to it.

That's strange. Could it be that this sea princess used her charm on them?

Most members of the sea tribe's royal family possess this ability, and Potti, being the highest-ranking member, might also have the strongest charm ability.

That's right, otherwise why wouldn't they dislike her at all?

The Ivi and the others ate their meal quietly, but their mental links were connected, and they chattered excitedly.

"Why is she eating so little? Doesn't she like our food?"

"Is she embarrassed to eat? I think she only eats what Elder Yunsha gives her."

"She doesn't look embarrassed at all. She's probably disgusted by our food. The fact that she's sitting down to eat with us is probably the limit of her patience."

"We don't hate her, so why would she hate us?"

After this Ivy finished speaking, the other Ivies all rolled their eyes at him, saying, "What do you think?"

"Don't forget, we and the sea creatures are mortal enemies, mortal enemies!"

"What do you think the princess means? Is she trying to form an alliance with our Holy City?"

"Impossible. How could the sea race possibly form an alliance with the Holy City? They're just temporarily currying favor for this mission."

“I think she’s different from those nasty sea people,” one of the Ivy said. “She even apologizes.”

Yu Xia propped her head up with her hand, slowly chewing her salad. Feeling the occasional glances from the Ivys, she paused, then lazily swept her gaze over and smiled at them.

The Ivy and her companions were stunned for a moment, then lowered their heads and began to eat voraciously.

"She used her charm on us again!"
