Chapter 386: Reasons For Jealousy

Chapter 386: Reasons For Jealousy

Princess Claire, why dont you sleep for a bit?

No! I-Im not tired!

Claire drove the carriage and closely followed behind a certain team, and she still wouldnt sleep even after continuously yawning.

But princess, youve been awake for two days already, if you continue on like this, your body wont be able to take it!

Yesterday, they pulled an all-nighter to avoid the ants, and she still hasnt rested today either. Andre and the others all took the chance to sleep for a bit on the carriage, but she still wouldnt rest.

Her reason was that she was worried that Lin Xiao and them would run away, so she wanted to keep an eye on them.

But was that the truth?

Andre silently shook his head.

If Claire was really worried about Lin Xiao running, why didnt she just pick up the speed? Why did she keep maintaining a distance as to not get discovered?

Andre didnt believe that Claire would be that foolish, so there must be a reason why.

That brat wouldnt have just got her just like that, right? Andre muttered.

He knew that there were a lot of young and outstanding investigators that were interested in Claire. But they had no idea how to get closer to her, and the type of men she liked was still a mystery.

Could it be that she doesnt like men and likes women?

Those kind of rumors were spreading since she was so handsome and a lot of girls also had a crush on her.

But Andre now understood, Claire likes brats like Lin Xiao!

He clearly looked down on her and even insulted her to her face and shes still shamelessly chasing after them is there something wrong with her head?

Actually, he was just jealous! Watching his beautiful boss easily getting picked up by a kid from who knows where, how could he not feel angry?

But that didnt matter, there was something more important he couldnt let Claire keep following Lin Xiao.

This rescue mission was supposed to be taken on by just him, but a stinking brat came out of nowhere and conquered Claire. If this continues, he wouldnt be able to reap any benefits and he would be stuck as a follower at her beck and call.

Andre wont do anything like that!

Princess Claire, Lin Xiao is a bastard! You dont have to lower yourself to his level, since he offended you, you can take care of him when we get back, theres no need to keep following him.

N-no

Claire rubbed her weary eyes and didnt know how to respond to Andre. All she knew was that she had to watch that bastard so she still persisted.

Do you believe that bastard can be trusted?

Hm? What do you mean?

I mean that you cant get tricked by him! Yao Zi may be strong, but their team may be difficult to be of use think about it, theyre from Lombard Kingdom and only came here to save Caesar, theyre not necessarily sincere in helping us!

The investigators may have all gotten directions from the four kingdom alliance, but everyone was playing for themselves, especially someone like Lin Xiao, hes even more suspicious!

Even if they were, but if he doesnt follow your orders, he would be a problem sooner or later!

Thats

As a commander, the most important thing wasnt the subordinates strength, but their loyalty! Disobedient soldiers will never be good soldiers!

But was Lin Xiao really just a soldier?

As a commander how could she chase after a disobedient solder?

Her true thoughts were

Princess Claire, you cant be interested in him?

Hah? W-what are you saying?

Claire bit her lips and blushed.

How would she fancy a bastard like that? Impossible!

But Claire did feel her actions were ridiculous she wasnt chasing him to catch him or take out her anger on him.

So why?

No, the reason she was full of resentment was because of two other people.

What? One stinking maid with a humongous rack, and a high heel wearing **** Claire muttered while feeling her own chest.

Her tomboy nickname wasnt just ridiculing her personality, but also her flat chest.

Claire gently sighed and then touched her own legs. Since she trained her body regularly she had a good figure, but she still couldnt compare to that ****.

Who is that bastard? Why are they so dead set on following him?

Actually, Lin Xiaos insults werent much to her, but the other two beauties lashing out made her lose face.

In front of Elena and ShenDai Ying, it was like she was a mistress who got caught. What was more infuriating was that they were both more beautiful and womanly than her.

In comparison, she was a wretched undesirable tomboy!

Uh.. princess Claire, you arent jealous, are you?

Jealous!?

What did that mean? Who was she jealous of? Lin Xiao? Was she jealous of their beauty, or jealous that they can accompany Lin Xiao?

Hehe, princess Claire, I was just joking, dont mind it. How could someone as outstanding as you be concerned with a bastard like Lin Xiao? You arent actually following him, youre just coincidentally taking the same road because youre both going to Yellowstone!

T-thats right! I wasnt purposely following him! Its just coincidentally the same road!

Right! Actually, you dont have to use the same road.

Hm?

Even without Tom, my brother can help us find Caesar

Before leaving he already said that his brother Andrew already entered the plague zone to find the missing team. They have already decided on a place to meet beforehand, so once they meet Andrew, they can easily finish the mission.

My brother is a seventh-level warrior! Far stronger and more experienced than those brats! He probably already finished investigating and once we meet up we can find Caesar!

Hm

If she listened to Andres advice and go find his brother, she can show that shes not a jealous mistress, but if she did that, she would completely lose track of Lin Xiao

Logically, she should go, but she couldnt leave just like that.

Perhaps it was because she was exhausted, she felt her eyelids droop and her thoughts becoming slower. Amidst that drowsiness, she seemed to have seen a group of people standing in the center of the road and a black-haired boy was waving at her.

Lin Xiao!?

She thought she was hallucinating because of how tired she was, but she took a closer look and it was actually Lin Xiao, so she quickly stopped the carriage.

Lin Xiao walked over with his maid along with his usual harmless smile.

Brother, you cant even open your eyes because of how tired you are. Under the road traffic safety law, you get 6 demerits for fatigued driving, and your license will be suspended after 12 demerit points I recommend you rest a bit.

Road traffic safety law? Demerits? License suspension? What are you talking about?

Although he had a friendly attitude, he kept saying incomprehensible nonsense, along with the stinking maid next to him, Claire thought he purposely came to pick a fight.

Bastard, what your words, Im not your brother! Im a woman!

Oh? So you knew that. Lin Xiao couldnt help but laugh.

You!? Hmph, just letting you know, I-I wasnt following you, we were just coincidentally taking the same road!

Coincidentally? Heh, it doesnt matter, dont worry I didnt come to fight with you. You should let someone else drive.

What?

Claire you havent slept and you need some rest, so let someone else drive. Lin Xiao repeated himself and helped Claire give orders, Andre, come help her quickly, you dont have to follow from so far, I wont eat you.

O-oh

Although he wanted to strangle this arrogant brat, Andre still instinctively listened and took over the reigns from Claire.

Wait! What are you trying to do? A-are you worried about me?

They were just quarreling earlier and almost started fighting, so why was he worried about her now?

Is he looking down on her?

Or was Lin Xiao
