Chapter 44 – Love is Bittersweet (2)
Elena’s words woke Lin Xiao up.
Rosie couldn’t see the situation objectively, her maiden heart was haunting her, that’s why she firmly believes that the reason why Caesar was ignoring her was that he disliked her, but that was far from the truth. Instead of saying that Caesar was ignoring her, it was better to say that Caesar was afraid to face her!
Thinking about the situation from the perspective of a male chauvinist, the whole thing would be different ——
First of all, if a chauvinist and a cute girl were hiding in a tree and facing a crisis of life and death, what would he think?
Do you even need to ask, of course, he would want to break through the encirclement and save the cute girl!
However, the enemy was too strong, during the hard battle, just as he saw some hope of escaping, yet he found that the cute girl was taken away by the black and hard pervert. What would he think?
Do you even need to ask, of course, he would have regretted it and want to save the cute girl!
That night, because he lost too much blood, Caesar was already losing consciousness. If Momm hadn’t appeared, he might have already been pounded to a pulp by the Jackalweres. Although his own life was saved, he later heard that Rosie was captured by the Jackalwere, facing the danger of losing her innocence, he could not help but blame himself for his weakness.
Fortunately, Lin Xiao saved Rosie at the last minute and saved her life and purity. The next day, when Caesar was awakened from his nightmare, there was only one emotion in his mind——
Disdain? No. He only had regret, monumental regret!
“Why, why am I so weak, why can’t I even protect a single woman? Am I even qualified to be a hero?” Elena’s face was still expressionless, she only used different pitches to imitate Caesar’s tone, “I’m guessing that Caesar believes that what happened to Rosie was his responsibility, he wasn’t strong enough, so he’s scared to talk to Rosie, he feels ashamed.”
“It seems very reasonable… Demon King, how do you know?”
“Because I’ve seen people like that.” Elena recalled something from a long time ago. “There was a man who dreamed of becoming a hero. His wife was raped and killed by demons, so he brandished his sword and rushed me. At that time, his eyes were exactly the same as Caesar’s.”
“Oh… how unfortunate. What happened to him?”
“I killed him with one swipe of my paws.” Elena replied indifferently.
Lin Xiao felt a chill running down his back.
In any case, Elena’s analysis was very reasonable. If Caesar ignored Rosie out of shame, it means that there was still room for improvement in their relationship, so that Lin Xiao’s plan could proceed smoothly.
“Elena, the task I assigned to you last night, did you remember it?”
“…Hmph.” Elena pretended not to hear.
“Please! If you help me with this, I’ll definitely repay you!” Lin Xiao clasped both hands together and said earnestly.
“No need to repay me.” Elena was helpless, “As long as you don’t make me call you master again.”
“That can’t be done. This is a matter of principle. If you are my maid, you have to call me master!” Lin Xiao refused.
“…” Elena really wanted to kill him with a swipe of her paw.
“However, I promised to help you find out the truth!” Lin Xiao patted his chest and promised, “Mr. X, that guy who delivered you to my house, I will definitely catch him. In addition, I will continue to investigate the method of dissolving the slave contract and send you home as soon as possible. How about that, are you willing to help me?”
“Hmph, whatever you want.”
“Demon King, best wishes for our cooperation, I look forward to your performance!”
Lin Xiao nodded and revealed a satisfied smile.

Camp
Rosie’s tent
Lin Xiao roping Rosie into becoming his accomplice —— this was the first step of his plan A, only success was allowed, no failures!
“Excuse me, is Rosie here?”
Lin Xiao shouted a few times outside the tent, but no one answered, so he changed a way.
“Miss? Missy, are you inside? If you’re not wearing anything, then I’m coming in.”
Lin Xiao’s declaration was a bit strange, he seems to have gotten it backward.
“Pervert, what the hell are you saying? If I’m not wearing anything, you still dare come in! Do you not believe that I’ll poke your eyes!” Rosie’s delicate abuse came from inside.
“Oh, so you were here.” Lin Xiao squeezed into the tent. “Miss, why were you ignoring me?”
“…What do you want? Stop worrying about me and scram.” the depressed Rosie sat in the corner, turned her head and glared at Lin Xiao, and then returned to hugging her legs and sulking.
“Missy, don’t be sad.” Lin Xiao consoled.
“I, I’m not sad! Are you blind? How do I look sad?” Rosie wiped the tears on her face and pouted in a quiet voice.
“Actually, I don’t think Caesar is scorning you. You misunderstood him!” Lin Xiao threw his first bait.
“Misunderstanding? Was I?” As soon as Rosie heard that, her attitude became more friendly, but there was still some doubt.
“Of course. Caesar felt guilty, he believed that it was his fault and he didn’t protect you properly, so he is not willing to face you, he definitely is not abandoning you!” Seeing this, Lin Xiao timely put Elena’s theory to use.
