- Chapter 594: Keeping An Eye On You Daily!
When Lin Xiao heard what Elena said, he exaggerated his reactions and pretended to be terrified.
“What? So you were the one behind the scenes?”
“Hmph, it’s already too late for you, just wait to die!”
“Wah, so scary!? I never expected you to be the final boss! … Then let me ask you boss, why did you make humans do so many bad things?”
“How would I know?”
“But aren’t you the final boss, why don’t you know?”
“I, I… hmph, I know! But I’m not telling you!”
“Oh? Is that so?”
“Of course!”
“Okay then, I won’t ask… but even if you don’t tell me, I can guess it!”
“Oh? Then take a stab at it, what’s my goal?”
“Elena, the reason you laid this trap was to lure me in, right!”
“Lure you in? … What do you mean?”
“It’s simple… you purposely made them do bad things, so I would go to beat them, then you would help me by my side and use the opportunity to get closer to me, so that we would become intimate and then make me fall in love with you… that was your goal, right!?”
“Hah? Y-you pervert, what the hell are you talking about? How shameless! … Just go die!”
And so their never-ending ‘fight’ continued and pillows and blankets went flying, and the room quickly became a mess.
…
…
Since it wasn’t early anymore and the siblings should be at the gates soon, they should also leave as soon as possible.
And so they brought their things and tiptoed out of the room.
What? Why did they have to tiptoe? That was obviously because Lin Xiao didn’t want to be seen!
This was the holy light church dormitories and Lin Xiao didn’t tell Snow that he came back, neither did he tell ShenDai Ying. He sneaked back in, slept for a night and then was going to sneak away today.
Elena did ask him last night why he wasn’t going to say goodbye to them before he left, and Lin Xiao’s response was that he didn’t want them to worry.
If ShenDai Ying knew about the risks he was going to take, she might try to stop him. Lin Xiao didn’t want to bring more trouble to himself and didn’t want her to have any burden, so he chose to leave without saying anything.
Though he said that, as he walked along the long corridor, he couldn’t help but stop as they passed by ShenDai Ying’s room.
“I-I’m not going to wake her, it should be fine if I just take a look, right?”
And so he indicated for Elena to keep watch outside as he gently pushed open the door and peered in. He saw ShenDai Ying fast asleep under her blankets and he instantly felt a lot better.
Just one look was enough for him.
He closed the door and prepared to leave, but when he turned around he heard a familiar hoarse voice.
“Hey, peeping at sleeping girls when no one’s around… you really are a big pervert!”
“Hm? Who is it??”
Lin Xiao stopped and thought it was a ghost when he heard the voice out of nowhere, but it was just an old acquaintance.
“What, it’s Xiao Hua, you scared me… can you please not just appear out of nowhere, it’s really startling.”
“Hmph, I don’t think it’s my sudden appearance that scared you, but it’s because you have a guilty conscience!”
“How would I have a guilty conscience? Isn’t it normal to look at my future wife from the door?”
“Shameless… the miss has never agreed to marry you, so how is she your future wife?”
“Hehe, close enough, don’t be so angry.”
“… Sigh, I really don’t get why I get so angry every time I see you… how strange.”
“Right Xiao Hua, it’s been a while, have you thought about that thing?”
“What thing?”
“The thing I promised to do for you as thanks… do you remember?”
“Oh, I remember.”
“So have you decided?”
“No, not yet.”
“It’s fine! Take your time, as your brother-in-law, I’ll do anything with my power!”
“Mhm, thanks… wait, why did you use brother-in-law again, change that strange way of calling yourself!”
“It’s fine. Since you don’t want me to help with anything, then help me do something again!”
“Sigh, I don’t get the logic, but… fine, let me hear it.”
Yes, she came to find Lin Xiao, to help him do things. Even she didn’t understand why she was helping someone like him, but she still came…
“Xiao Hua, this time it’s simple, I want you to help me investigate these people.”
Saying that, Lin Xiao took out a small slip of paper and handed it over. She took a quick look and asked, “You just want information? That’s simple, why don’t you just ask around?”
“Uh, I naturally don’t just want that information, I want you to help me get more detailed information.”
“That’s easy… I can even help you find out how many times they wet their beds!”
Xiao Hua waved the paper in her hand and confidently boasted of her intelligence gathering capabilities and then smiled, “So it just an easy mission… I thought you would want me to help you get a map of the rebels.”
“Why would you think that?”
“Because you just agreed to Claire… to investigate the rebels by acting as negotiators, that’s not an easy task, so I thought you would push the dirty work to me.”
“Ugh, how could that be? Also, I don’t need your help for such small matters… please, don’t defame my character, am I someone lazy like that?”
“Are you not?”
“… Okay, I am. But Xiao Hua, I really can’t hide anything from you. The mission Claire gave me is secretive, even Yao Zi and Lin Tian don’t know everything, how do you know about it?”
“Hmph, of course I know! Because I had nothing to do recently, so I’ve been watching you every day!”
“Ah? Y-you’ve been watching me every day?”
“Of course!”
“Even when I’m sleeping?”
“That’s right!”
“Even when I use the washroom?”
“Yes! I… eh? No, no… bastard, who would watch you when you’re using the washroom! I’m not a pervert!”
“Hehe, that’s hard to say. I never thought you cared about me so much. But Xiao Hua, don’t get any thoughts, even if you watch your brother-in-law every day like a stalker, nothing will happen, so forget it!”
“Hm… w-who would want anything to happen with you? The reason I’m watching you, is because… oh right, because of the miss!”
“Hm? What does this have to do with sister Ying?”
“Of course it does! Since she likes you so much, so I need to watch you so that you won’t do anything you’ll be sorry to her about. Also, I can’t let you be in danger… if you die, wouldn’t she be sad?”
“Oh, so that’s why you’re helping me?”
“Of course! I don’t want her to become a wid… I can at least help you come back alive by helping you gather information.”
Xiao Hua slapped the paper in her clothes as she found a proper reason.
“But… Lin Xiao, you have to be careful this time! Shen Yue Ge gave me a new mission, so I’m going to be busy soon, and won’t have time to help… so, this is the last time I can help you!”
