Chapter 247 – Triangles Are the Most Stable (1/2)

As for Elena, Shen DaiYing couldn’t make out what she was thinking.

Her words were full of ridicule and accusations, but she didn’t take the bait, she didn’t know whether she had something to rely on or she just didn’t care.

Didn’t care?

No, that’s the only thing she didn’t believe.

Before she still foolishly believed Elena was an aloof lady from a large household and only became Lin Xiao’s maid because he saved her life, but after finding out her real identity, she didn’t believe Elena’s bullshit anymore.

Who was Elena? She wasn’t even a human, but a high-level demon, a red-eyed black cat!

That deeply moving confession at the entrance to the remains and Xiao Hua’s intel could prove her identity. After realizing that, Shen DaiYing suddenly understood.

The ambiguous relationship between Lin Xiao and Elena, why Lin Xiao abandoned her to save Elena… because Elena wasn’t a human! They had an unspeakable secret between them!

Although Shen DaiYing didn’t know what that secret was, but she was more relieved. Even though she was blaming Lin Xiao on the outside, she had already found an excuse for him.

Of course, Shen DaiYing didn’t plan on saying it, but she planned to use it as a bargaining chip when the time came to it.

Originally, Xiao Hua planned to report this to Shen Yue Ge, but she opposed it and didn’t let her divulge it so Xiao Hua could only obey that.

Actually, as the person of contact, Xiao Hua shouldn’t accommodate Shen DaiYing. Even if what she did helps her, it was a betrayal of sorts to the organization, so something big was going to happen sooner or later. If something happened one day and everything came to light, then she and Shen DaiYing would be done for!

But it couldn’t be helped that she was softhearted.

It was the first time she saw the miss cry so much for a man, how could she bear to let her cry again?

Speaking of strange, she originally planned to take Shen DaiYing away, but she insisted on waiting for Lin Xiao and wouldn’t leave no matter how she tried to persuade her.

That scum is going to come back? What a joke!

Xiao Hua had thought that he wouldn’t come even if Shen DaiYing waited until the end of time, but that man unexpectedly stumbled over when the sky darkened. Although he brought that maid, his intention was still touching.

“Lin Xiao is it… I really can’t tell what he’s thinking, it seems like I have to thoroughly investigate him.”

She silently watched the reunion between them and sighed. She slowly retreated and melded into the background and vanished.

Since the Miss was safe and sound she didn’t have any reason to stay, and it was time to report back.

Of course it was a selective report.

“Sister Ying, a-are you okay? Did I hurt you?”

“No problem, hehe, I can still endure it… come on, use more strength!”

“Un… right, just like that, keep going!”

“Wu… Sister Ying, I can’t! I-I can’t anymore!”

Thankfully, Xiao Hua already left, otherwise if she heard that, she would probably cut Lin Xiao down.

Of course, they weren’t actually doing anything and were just trying to hurry along.

Since Lin Xiao was very weak and couldn’t walk by himself, he had to have someone supporting him. Since Elena was already standing by and just watching, this responsibility fell onto Shen DaiYing.

Even though she was also weak herself, she still took it upon herself to act as crutches for him and used her frail shoulders to support his body, and in the end, it was of course a failure.

She couldn’t support Lin Xiao’s weight at all with her current strength, when Lin Xiao tried to lean on Shen DaiYing earlier, they both weren’t able to stand steady and he ended up falling over right on top of her.

“Sorry, Sister Ying… a-am I too heavy?”

“No worries, it was my fault I wasn’t standing steady, let’s try again!” Shen DaiYing endured the pain and supported Lin Xiao up and bent down to indicate for him to try again.

“Uh…”

This time Lin Xiao wouldn’t do it.

How could he be willing to do that?

Watching her delicate body being crushed underneath his, his heart was almost bleeding. He would rather crawl then subject her to this.

But there was no choice, it was already late and darkness enveloped the forest so they had to leave the island as soon as possible and reconvene with Teacher Woos and them so they had to travel through the night.
