Chapter 698: Chapter 686: Is Ao Ye Making a Move Now?!

Later, the tourists observed cautiously that the sea otter was free to enter and leave the pet hut and the vacation area. It could leave anytime if it didn’t like to stay around.

After that, questions about this began to die down a bit.

Although some people still harbored doubts, they couldn’t find evidence of the sea otter being mistreated and had no grounds to report.

"Little sea otter, did you miss me?"

When Xia Yue arrived, she saw the sea otter playing among a group of pets.

She then called out to it loudly.

The sea otter, with its sensitive hearing, immediately looked over upon hearing Xia Yue’s voice.

"Ah ah ah," Seeing the real Xia Yue, it immediately abandoned the other pets and fled towards her.

Xia Yue bent down to hold the little otter that rushed over to her.

She rubbed its neck and stroked its smooth fur. It was simply too adorable to touch.

"My little darling, have been happy recently? Did you sneak some bites of my abalone and sea snails?" She beamed, while lovingly holding its little head.

"Ah ah ah, why did you return so late? I’ve waited for you for so long. I even tried to catch fish for you, but you didn’t return. So, I had no choice but to eat them. I didn’t steal anything, it was given to me." The sea otter yelled at her, even shedding tears.

Xia Yue was touched as she did not expect the little guy to cry. It must have really missed her.

"That’s wonderful. The place I went to was too dangerous, and I couldn’t bring you along. I missed you too," Xia Yue replied.

"Ah ah ah, okay then, I’ve been taking good care of this place. All the pets here obey me. I am the boss here now." The sea otter nodded, pointing towards the pets standing in the distance, and proudly announced to Xia Yue.

"You’ve really done a good job. After your shift, I’ll go fishing with you and catch abalones and sea snails. I’ll make grilled fish for you." Xia Yue complimented the otter while petting its head.

"Ah!" The sea otter wagged its tail in excitement and nodded enthusiastically.

"You stay here for now, I’ll take a look at other places and come back for you tonight." Xia Yue excused herself after catching up with the otter, intending to visit other areas.

"Ah, I also want to go," the sea otter reluctantly yelled.

"If you leave, what about them? If they run away and bite someone, our resort would be finished. You need to keep an eye on them, good boy!" Xia Yue pointed at the pets in the distance and consoled the otter by stroking its head.

"Ah, fine." The sea otter cast a glance at the unpredictable animals in the distance and reluctantly let Xia Yue leave.

Xia Yue smiled and touched the otter’s head one last time before leaving the pet cabin and heading towards the nearby Chinese-style hotel.

Upon seeing Dragon Lord Ao Ye at the front desk, she was stunned. She stepped back to make sure she was in her own hotel.

Then she walked up to the front desk.

"Dragon Lord?" Xia Yue tentatively exclaimed.

Ao Ye knew what she must be thinking by the look of disbelief on her face.

"What do you want?" Ao Ye asked her.

"Is it really you? How did you become human?" Xia Yue stared at him wide-eyed and asked.

"I changed because I wanted to change. Why are there so many questions about that? When did you get back?" Ao Ye didn’t want to explain, as he himself didn’t understand why he changed into a human and ended up working at the front desk, a job that was so unlike him.

But he had been doing this job for over a month.

"Then why are you here? Where are the others? Didn’t we agree that the marketing team should rotate at the front desk?" Xia Yue saw that he seemed quite irritated, so she decided not to ask further and changed the topic instead.

"If there’s nothing else, stop blocking the way," Ao Ye addressed her coldly. His stern expression revealed no hint of softness, reminding her mentally to increase the intensity of her training later.
