Chapter 123 – Emperor’s Son-in-law (2/2)
Also it seems like someone purposely smeared out the Saint’s real name on the notice, if he wanted an answer he had to personally attend the ceremony tomorrow.
“Wait… Elena, other than the notice, you saw something else, right?”
He bumped into Shen DaiYing that day, and saw another side of her, but more strangely Elena was also nearby.
Lin Xiao thought it was a coincidence at first, but the signs later on showed that it definitely wasn’t. From that day on, Elena held some strange hostility against Shen DaiYing, and even said something strange to him after the match.
There was something wrong, Elena definitely knows something!
Lin Xiao started asking, and Elena didn’t feel like hiding it and told him everything she saw and heard that day.
The mysterious underground room at the outskirts, the Eastern tribe envoy, Lesser devils, Archbishop Anderson… Lin Xiao would have never even dreamed that Shen DaiYing was hiding so many secrets, and she had so much power backing her.
Most importantly, Elena also heard the conversation between Shen DaiYing and Anderson, so she was a hundred percent sure that Shen DaiYing was the one who killed Jackson and David.
“She, Shen DaiYing, Great Qin Empire’s princess, Caesar’s fiancée , the successor of the ‘Moonlight soul flower’ assassination technique, a coldblooded killer, knows about Lesser Devils, and is also close to the archbishop of the Holy Light Church.” Unexpectedly, Elena slightly smiled after finishing, “So Lin Xiao, you should understand, right?”
“I…” Lin Xiao furrowed his brows and went silent.
Of course, he understood, he once said that he wanted to find a normal girl to be his girlfriend, but now that Shen DaiYing has so many title, she was the furthest away from a normal girl.
A killer, a schemer, was it really as Elena said, would chasing after Shen DaiYing be the death of him?
“No, I still don’t… I think that Sister Ying is a good person, there must be something else going on.”
Although he was saying that, on the inside Lin Xiao knew better than anyone else, he just wasn’t willing to face reality.
No evidence…. he wasn’t suspecting that Elena was lying, but there was still no hard evidence that Shen DaiYing was the killer.
He at least had to get a piece of crucial evidence!
“Lin Xiao, it just seems like you merely like her for her body, right?” Elena ruthlessly taunted, “And you even used my blood to treat her, taking that chance to take advantage of her, you damn pervert…”
“Eh, did you see everything?” Lin Xiao felt like an old man that was caught having an affair, and tried to defend himself shamefully, “I-it was because she was injured, isnt it normal that I help her treat her wounds? As for your blood… hmph, what about it? Can’t you just give me some more?”
“What? You want more?” Elena glared at him, and sternly scolded, “Lin Xiao, I really don’t understand, do you actually like her? Do you understand her? Does she treat you well?”
She tossed out three questions in succession, and Lin Xiao was unable to answer.
That’s right, why was it? Was it really as Elena said, was it just because Shen DaiYing was a vixen, and seduced him with a body that many thirsted for? No, definitely not! That was one thing that Lin Xiao would never admit.
This was the first woman that he liked, how could it just be a vulgar thirst from the lower half of his body?
“Hehe, I know.” Elena slapped her own head, and gave her answer with a sneer, “I almost forgot how much of a decadent good-for-nothing you were. You’re pursuing Shen DaiYing so that you can become the princess’s husband, right… in the Great Qin Empire this position would be the emperor’s son-in-law.”
