Chapter 413: Chapter 403: Constant Guilt

"No worries for now," Yan Mo said, looking at her resistant expression.

"I heard you’ve been exchanging ideas with Milia lately, how does it feel?" Xia Yue asked as she walked into the pavilion and sat down.

Yan Mo followed and sat on her right, saying, "It’s been quite good, she’s a fine workout partner, and my strength has increased a lot."

"I heard you lost, how do you feel? Don’t let it knock you down. She’s been around longer than you, so she’s definitely stronger, but you did force her close – that’s pretty impressive." Xia Yue propped up her chin and spoke as she looked at him.

"I’m not upset, in fact, I’m quite glad. Meeting an opponent who can defeat me early on gives me more motivation to improve, to become more powerful. That way, I can protect you no matter where we go," Yan Mo said, his eyes deep as he looked at her.

Xia Yue caught the seriousness in his eyes, taken aback for a second, she couldn’t meet his gaze and shifted hers, smiling, "That’s good, that’s good."

"Right, we’re having a meeting tonight. I’ve already told Ziluo and Milia. I asked them to inform a few managers from the Ghost House as well. The meeting will be at 8 o’clock in the Conference Hall in the Mansion.

You should tell Ao Mi, Professor Chen, and Manager Zheng too. We’ll briefly discuss the recent situation in the holiday area, giving everyone an overview.

While at it, we’ll also go over the preparations for the upcoming tasks, which should be assigned in the next few days."

Xia Yue suddenly spoke up, addressing him.

"Okay, I understand." Yan Mo nodded.

"Also, I ran into that sea otter from before at the beach. It’s been living here for several days. I briefly communicated with it and found out that it’s about to gain spiritual wisdom; it’s very smart and comprehends simple words." Xia Yue remembered the sea otter by the sea and shared it with Yan Mo.

"The sea otter from before is here? Wasn’t it sent to the City Zoo? Professor Chen said they were planning on sending it back home." Yan Mo looked at her with confusion.

Xia Yue took out her phone and showed him her chat history with Professor Chen.

After reading the chat, Yan Mo says, "If Professor Chen says so, let it stay. Do you know where it’s staying now?"

"I upset it and it ran away. I’m not sure where it resides." Xia Yue felt a bit guilty, recalling how the sea otter angrily chirped at her before running away.

"It’s been a while, it probably found a good place to stay," Yan Mo said.

"I think so too." Xia Yue nodded her head, referring to the fact that the sea otter’s physique didn’t appear to have changed, indicating that it has been doing well.

It’s better for humans not to interfere too much.

After chatting for a bit longer, the two parted ways.

Xia Yue returned to her room, laying on the couch playing with her phone, her table still full of drinks and snacks.

Around five, Xia Yue received a call from Xia Yu.

"Yueyue, how have you been? You haven’t called or messaged me recently?" Xia Yu asked with concern on the other end, knowing that Yueyue could use her phone from the conversation he had with their grandparents.

"Big Brother, I’ve been great, how about you? Is work busy? Are you eating well?" Xia Yue looked at Xia Yu’s call, feeling a bit guilty for forgetting to check in.

"I’m good, been eating well. I just finished chatting with Grandpa and Grandma. They said you were done with your business, so I called," Xia Yu laughed.

"Hehe, I just finished my tasks today. Chatting with my colleagues made me forget to call you," Xia Yue tried to hide her guilt behind laughter.
