Chapter 267 – The Master Who is Eaten Poor by the Maid (1/2)

Xiao Hua was walking alone in the long corridor outside the banquet hall preparing to invite today’s main character, and accompany her beloved lady to this grand banquet.

“Really, Miss just had to invite Lin Xiao, is he worthy?”

Even after seeing that scum off, she still complained nonstop.

Lin Xiao was just a commoner, even if he hid his true strength, he still couldn’t change his own low status. Think about it, Great Qin Empire has a ton of strong people, but none of them caught Shen DaiYing’s eyes, but what about Lin Xiao?

He’s just a poor student living in poverty, even if now he obtained an alliance investigator status, he still doesn’t have any reputation. He neither has money nor status, just a plebian. What’s more, he even admits himself that’s he’s an unmotivated good-for-nothing, you might as well kill him instead of expecting him to work hard and make a great career to give Shen DaiYing happiness!

“Sigh, Lin Xiao is really dawdling, does he not want to marry our lady? If he really wanted to, shouldn’t he be devoted and work hard?”

As for Lin Xiao, Xiao Hua didn’t really hate him, rather she looked forward to his future.

If he could train more diligently and strive for progress and also maintain a distance from other women at the same time, then Xiao Hua may be able to accept his presence.

Xiao Hua would obviously be happy for Shen DaiYing if she could be happy with the person she likes, but Lin Xiao’s behavior is too disappointing!

Not to mention his laziness, even if he did one day have the qualification and status to marry Shen DaiYing, Xiao Hua ventured to guess that Lin Xiao would definitely make a harem, he’ll probably collect a castle worth of just maids!

“Sigh, Miss, can you please tell me what you see in him?”

In her opinion, Lin Xiao and Shen DaiYing had no future together, and Shen DaiYing should be clear about that.

Shen DaiYing had said that she only wanted the comfort she felt from him, if that was the case then she could have just met him in private like when she went to cook for him and kept her feelings in the dark. Why did she invite Lin Xiao to attend today’s banquet?

Since they made up their mind to be secret lovers without a future, why did Shen DaiYing use this banquet to make Lin Xiao’s existence known to the world?

Acting out against Elena?

Testing Lin Xiao’s feelings?

Or simply willful?

Xiao Hua didn’t understand.

“But Miss, did you forget the main topic of today’s banquet? Lin Xiao will be devastated when he learns of it!”

No matter how bad, Lin Xiao was still a man, no matter how thick-skinned and unfazed he is, if he witnessed that scene with his own eyes and ears, I’m afraid it will also make him go berserk.

A greedy man and an infatuated woman who is willing to be a lover…

“Lin Xiao should already be inside by now, right?”

Xiao Hua thought as she walked.

“A poor boy like him would probably hide in the corner while stuffing himself, right? Since he’s never had royal cuisine before.”

“Speaking of which, he only changed his maid’s clothes, why did he forget to change his own clothes? People will probably think he’s a beggar with his appearance.”

“A beggar?”

“Wait…”

Thinking about that, Xiao Hua suddenly realized she forgot something important.

Since Lin Xiao didn’t have an invitation, she specially brought him into the palace past the guards, and thought that would be enough, but she forgot that there was another gate.

“Damn, ShenDai JianRen is still guarding the banquet hall door!”

Xiao Hua’s heart tightened when she thought of him.

No invitation and dressed plainly, Lin Xiao will definitely be stopped by him.

If ShenDai Ying’s lover was humiliated because of her, she’ll definitely be scolded!

“I really hope nothing happens… Lin Xiao, even if you get beat, don’t blame me, I didn’t do it on purpose.”

Xiao Hua became more flustered as she hastened her pace and quickly went to go find ShenDai Ying.

…

…

At the same time.

“Hey kid, what are you doing?”

Before Lin Xiao could step into the hall, a man to the side blocked his way.

Lin Xiao didn’t react in time and almost crashed into him, thanks to Elena noticing and stopping him in time, she prevented him from making a fool of himself.

“Are you talking to me?”

When he took a good look, Lin Xiao saw the person who stopped him was a middle aged man wearing a dark green kimono, with a black sash at his waist and a pair of wooden clogs.

Eastern tribe?
