Chapter 327 – Spring Breeze, Maiden (2/2)

“Hehe, sister Ying, are you not happy because I’m here?” Lin Xiao smiled and teased her.

“Of course not! Why would I not be happy? But… but…”

ShenDai Ying stuttered and didn’t know how to explain herself. She never did anything bad, yet it felt like she was caught by her husband trying to sneak out with some other man. She wanted to quickly explain herself as to not cause any misunderstandings.

Lin Xiao almost laughed out loud when he saw that, it was rare to see ShenDai Ying in a predicament, so he crossed his arms and enjoyed it, and he looked at her until he became mesmerized.

“Hey, what are you looking at?”

“Me? I’m looking at you.”

“What are you looking at me for? It’s not like I’m some strange demonic beast…”

“I just like looking at you.”

“… Eh?”

ShenDai Ying’s face flushed red when she heard that and lowered her head with embarrassment.

“Uh, cough… Um, sister YIng, are you teaming up with Yao Zi for this mission.”

“Yeah… so you already knew.” ShenDai Ying quietly responded and quickly explained, “Don’t misunderstand, it’s not what you think, it’s actually because…”

“It’s an assignment?” Lin Xiao interrupted her.

“Eh? H-how did you know?”

“I didn’t, I guessed… now I know.”

“Uh… you tricked me!”

“Otherwise?” That’s the only thing I can do to catch a naughty princess like you.”

“Tsk, its still too early for you to catch me!”

As expected, this was the only person who could make her feel comfortable, he liked her true self, so there was no need for pretense and lies. She could take off her mask and didn’t have to be worried about getting hurt.

“So… you knew I was teaming up with them, so you followed?”

“Of course.”

“Hehe, that’s great…”

ShenDai Ying smiled from the heart again and inwardly bit her lips, ready to reveal everything to him.

There was nothing that she needed to hide from him, no matter how secret the mission was, she was still willing to tell him.

“Lin Xiao, actually, my mission is…”

“Sister Ying, you don’t have to force yourself.” Lin Xiao shook his head and stopped her, “I don’t care what your mission is, I just want you to promise me one thing.”
