Chapter 122 – Take a Sniff, and a Lick (2/2)

She didn’t know, but she knew that their relationship couldn’t continue on like this.

“Lin Xiao, you cured my wounds, so I’m very grateful.” She sighed, then hardened her tone, “However, Lin Xiao, you should remember, I’m Caesar’s fiancée. Although I don’t really mind, but you carried me away in front of everyone… no matter what, that’s not really fitting, right? It was too disrespectful.”

“… Sorry” Lin Xiao lowered his head to express his apology.

He was rather careless about that, he had to explain it properly later on. His reputation didn’t matter, but it wouldn’t be good if it embarrassed Shen DaiYing.

However, her words were kind of strange, “Although I don’t really mind”, why?

Was she just being polite, or…

“Cough, Lin Xiao, you aren’t thinking about something rude, right?” Shen DaiYing squinted while questioning.

“No, no, definitely not!”

“Sigh… actually, you’ll regret it sooner or later.” Shen DaiYing dejectedly sighed, her tone became more dim, “I actually know that the person you like isn’t me.”

“Not you?”

“Yeah… we haven’t known each other for long, right? Also, you obviously have someone worthy of treasuring next to you… compared to her, I’m very hateful, right?”

“How could that be? I…” Lin Xiao didn’t know how he should express his feelings, so he continued on, “Then, how hateful are you?”

“Eh?”

Shen DaiYing evidently didn’t expect Lin Xiao to ask something like that, curiously lifted her head to look at him, opened her mouth, but didn’t know how to respond.

“Could you be as hateful as that princess who gave those beggar sisters some coins?” Lin Xiao gently smiled, and seriously said, “I thought that you were very cute.”

Shen DaiYing stopped and remembered what happened yesterday and laughed.

“Lin Xiao, you really are different. I clearly told you to forget what happened, why are you so disobedient?”

“Sister Ying, I…” Seeing her beautiful smile, Lin Xiao was momentarily stupefied.

“Don’t tell anyone about yesterday, just treat it like a dream… similarly, I also wont tell anyone about your multi-casting. I know that you don’t want to reveal your strength, right?” Shen DaiYing raised a suggestion.

“… okay.” Lin Xiao could only nod his head.

“But you really are amazing, hundred times multi-casting… good thing I was quick, otherwise it would’ve been terrible!” Shen DaiYing jokingly rebuked him.

“No, sister Ying, you’re even more so, right? You’ve never even used that short sword.”

He knew that Shen DaiYing never went all out.

“That?” She gently touched the short dagger at her waist, her eyes became lax, and her voice became sentimental, and she quietly mumbled, “I wish that I’ll never use it again… especially against you.”

“What did you just say?”

“Nothing. Sorry, I have to go, otherwise everyone would misunderstand!”

She left a sweet goodbye, and hastily left, leaving Lin Xiao alone in the room.

The effects of the Demon King HP Potion was indeed astonishing, she was just limping earlier, but now nothing looked off when she was walking, only the masculine jacket wrapped around her waist looked weird.

Watching her leave, Lin Xiao suddenly remembered.

“Hey, sister Ying, your shorts, and also your pantyhose!”

He yelled loudly after her, but there was no response, she was already long gone.

Seeing those two pieces of female clothing, his heart beat faster.

What should he do? Should he take it home?

Of course, its not like he wanted to take it home to sniff or lick it… he just wanted to find a chance to give it back to Shen DaiYing!

After some turmoil, he looked left and right like a thief, then tiptoed over, and tried shoving them inside his pockets.

At that time, a cold voice came from the doorway.

“Pervert, how disgusting… also, that’s my blood, right?”

A silver-haired red-eyed maid was standing at the door, her eyes filled with disdain.

“Eh? Elena? W-why are you here?”

Lin Xiao jumped, he didn’t even have time to explain before she poured cold water on him.

“That woman, will be the death of you.”
