5. Time to Depart
After hearing Xia Lulu's words, Xia Yi cared a great deal.
"Absolutely able to satisfy me?"
What is it?
Her curiosity grew.
"What are you talking about?" Xia Yi couldn't help but ask.
Upon hearing this, Xia Lulu's eyes carried a playful meaning.
"I see you have no clue."
"Clue, clue about what?"
"Do you want to know?"
Xia Lulu smiled.
"Just act coquettishly towards me, and I'll tell you."
"Uh!"
Xia Yi woke up to the realization.
This was Xia Lulu's trap, she must not fall for it!
That was close, she almost fell into the trap and got teased again.
How could she possibly act coquettishly towards Xia Lulu?
That would be like abandoning the dignity of the Human Sword Saint.
Such a thing, Xia Yi could not do.
Acting coquettishly towards her archenemy? Maybe in the next life!
"No way, Xia Lulu, I will definitely not act coquettishly towards you," Xia Yi quickly refused, "I want to emphasize once again, we are enemies, don't flatter yourself."
"Is that so…"
"Of course!"
Xia Yi stood tall.
"Then, why would someone actively want to sleep with me?" Xia Lulu tilted her head.
"That, that is…!"
Xia Yi's gaze wandered.
"Ahaha! No way, no way! Someone can't seriously believe that, right? All of this is just acting, my flawless acting, and someone thinks it's real?"
Xia Lulu didn't even need to speak, no need to use words to counterattack.
Just smiling, then casting her gaze towards her daughter.
This method, for Xia Yi, was like torture!
She was almost unable to withstand it.
"Xia Lulu, this is really… acting!"
"So it's acting, huh? Amazing, my daughter's acting is so good, it even fooled me, I didn't notice at all!"
Xia Lulu feigned surprise, reading in a monotone.
The little princess bit her lip, her cheeks flushed red.
Her head was nearly steaming.
This was outright bullying!!
"Anyway, that's how it is, I'm leaving, I will definitely complete the work, I'm ready to set off, that's it!!"
After dropping these words, Xia Yi left Xia Lulu's office as if fleeing.
The confrontation was lost again!
…
"Huff… Huff… Huff…"
Xia Yi returned to her room, her escape was as desperate as if her life depended on it.
Wuwu!
Confronting Xia Lulu, she lost again.
Why can't she ever win against that woman in a confrontation!!
She lay on her bed, pondering left and right, unable to figure it out.
Knock knock knock.
There was a knock on the door.
"Your Highness, you're in your room, right?"
It was Sera's voice.
"Sera, come in."
"As you command."
Sera opened the door and saw the disheartened little princess lying on the bed, looking unhappy.
Seeing this scene, Sera felt inexplicably happy.
"Sera, are you laughing at me?!"
"No, Your Highness, I'm not laughing, I'm happy for you."
"What's there to be happy about?"
"Of course, you'll soon be able to leave the Dragon Palace and make a name for yourself, earning the respect of all dragons."
"That… Of course!!"
Xia Yi sat up, immediately invigorated.
She had long been ready to stretch her wings and make a big splash.
"Your Highness, have you reported to the Queen?" Sera asked.
"Yes, I've told her, I plan to leave for Golde today, there's no time to lose!"
"Today? No problem, I'll go with you."
"Sera, you're going too?!"
"Yes, at least someone needs to assist you with this task. However, we dragons can't be too high-profile with this mission. If too many dragons go to Golde, we might be exposed before the investigation even begins, which could alert other races. If that happens, everyone might temporarily set aside their differences and decide to deal with us first, which would be detrimental to our mission."
Sera explained to Xia Yi.
She thought carefully, indeed that was the case.
After all, Golde is different from the Blackstone Kingdom, having already left the protection of the Dragon Kingdom, no longer a vassal state.
If dragons intervene openly, it will definitely unite the other races against us, creating resistance.
Hmm, it's a bit troublesome, these things really need to be considered.
"No worries, Sera, I have it all figured out, we can set off now!" Xia Yi replied, "Time waits for no one, the more we delay going to Golde, the more variables might occur there."
"Your Highness, it's completely fine to depart for Golde today, but I need to confirm, is there anything else you need to bring for this job?"
"Absolutely necessary to bring?" Xia Yi was puzzled, "Sera, what do you mean?"
"For example, you could bring some spare clothes, pretty little dresses…"
This maid, she really treats me like some girl, huh?
Ridiculous!
The dignified Human Sword Saint, my actions are only for efficiency.
Whether I can wear pretty clothes or not, I don't care at all.
"No need, Sera," Xia Yi waved her hand.
"Your Highness, are you sure? Wearing clothes you like can improve your mood, and you'll be more focused on your work."
"Um…"
Xia Yi was slightly swayed.
After thinking it through, it's all for the sake of work.
"That does make sense, just bring a little, for the sake of work efficiency!"
"Then, Your Highness, do you need to bring your doll?" Sera pointed to the stuffed dragon pillow on Xia Yi's bed.
It was a long little dragon, always favored by the little princess, who would hug it when sleeping at night.
"Sera, don't underestimate me, it's just a work trip, there's no need to bring these, treating me like a child!"
"But…"
"No buts!" Xia Yi firmly refused, "I went to the Blackstone Kingdom with Lucia last time without the doll, and nothing happened!"
"My sister told me that your sleep quality in the Blackstone Kingdom was average. I'm not treating you like a child, but this doll can stabilize your mental state during sleep, and good quality sleep will improve your work efficiency the next day."
"Is it really so?"
"Yes, Your Highness, it's the same for most people."
Xia Yi felt that Sera's reasoning was indeed correct!
If I bring my pillow, I might sleep more soundly.
I did regret not bringing my favorite stuffed pillow to the Blackstone Kingdom those nights.
"Your Highness, I strongly advise this, it's a suggestion to help you complete your work smoothly, it's an adult's advice to another adult," Sera said earnestly.
"Really, no choice then! Since it's Sera's request, I'll agree, but it's not because I want to bring it!"
Xia Yi agreed.
"Just bring these, nothing else!"
"Alright."
Sera smiled, the Princess was indeed easy to handle.
She quickly packed everything up, ready to go.
Everything was ready, just waiting for Xia Yi's command.
"Then, let's set off, our destination is—"
Lol, yeah she truly is sometimes easy to handle!
