Chapter 151 – Debt Repaying Maid

Was it just a misconception?

If it wasn’t, Elena was just a maid, how dare she look down on her?

So what if she was actually trying to kiss Lin Xiao? It was not her place, as a mere servant, to worry.

Shen DaiYing was in a bad mood, and couldn’t help but wrinkle her brows.

Speaking of it, even though she’s observed her for so long, she still doesn’t know what identity Elena has. Although she’s a maid in name, her relationship with Lin Xiao is too strange, it definitely wasn’t just a simple master-servant relationship.

She should take this chance to ask about it.

“Lin Xiao, it might just be me… but lately it seems like your maid is acting strange.”

She was afraid that Elena would hear, so she continuously moved towards Lin Xiao and whispered next to his ears.

She once again tossed away her dignity as a princess, not having learnt anything from what just happened. She was just lingering about that doubt she had.

“Uh…”

Although she was unaware, Lin Xiao learned his lesson.

This time, he didn’t even glance sideways and continued to look straight ahead the entire time. He endured his urge to turn his head, otherwise this time he would really kiss her!

Although that’s what he would like, something called integrity restrained him. So he couldn’t do anything perverted and shameless.

“You say she’s acting strange… how so?”

“Like ignoring people, even you. Since departing, I haven’t even talked to her yet.”

“Uh… I-I haven’t really either.” Lin Xiao responded awkwardly.

“Un, why is that? Ah, I know, is she angry at you?”

“Angry?” Shen DaiYing’s breath continuously tickled his ears, “Sister Ying, don’t worry about her! She has problems, thinking about killing me all the time.”

“Killing? Uh… stop joking, she’s just angry at you right! Tell me, how did you bully her?”

“I’m innocent, why would I bully her?”

“Really? Then why is she angry at you?”

“She has problems here.” Lin Xiao used his fingers to gesture next to his head.

“Eh? Really? But Lin Xiao, I’ve always been curious.” Shen DaiYing used her hands to cover her mouth and tried asking, “Where did you buy this maid? Sorry… I don’t mean anything, it’s just that a girl that beautiful is so rare.”

Silver-haired and red eyes, exceedingly refined, she’s never seen anyone with such strange characteristics, it was truly rare.

“Uh… that’s a secret, something I’ve never told anyone before. But since it’s you asking, I’ll tell you. Actually…”

“Un, I’m listening.”

According to Lin Xiao, Elena was actually the daughter of a large household, but because their family accidentally offended a powerful person, their family was getting wiped out. As she was escaping, she was caught by bandits and almost lost her life, but Lin Xiao saved her, and to repay that debt, she pledged to be his maid for the rest of her life.

Elena never used to be this cold, she was a graceful and generous noble lady, but being through all that left a shadow in her heart and changed her personality.

“Sigh, there’s nothing I can do, as long as she lives a good life, then I’m satisfied.” After he finished, Lin Xiao sighed.

That was the backstory he prepared for Elena, a maid repaying her debt. It was fitting and didn’t have any big loopholes, he planned to use it to trick the talkative students, but since Shen DaiYing asked, he might as well use it.

“Oh, paying a debt of gratitude, huh…”

Shen DaiYing smiled and nodded her head, but her eyes never left that beautiful maid.

Although the entire story was fabricated by Lin Xiao, she believed it completely, and it was like some part of her was touched.

In order to repay her debts, she devoted her life and became the hero’s maid. Shen DaiYing felt that Elena was very lucky, if possible, she also wished that she could meet her own hero and devote her life and become a happy ‘Debt repaying maid’.

With her unrealistic delusions, when no one noticed, Shen DaiYing’s gaze towards Elena, carried a hint of jealousy.

The carriages were still advancing.

And so, Lin Xiao and Shen DaiYing continue flirti… oh no, communciating, becoming more unrestrained.

Lin Xiao tried to get closer to her any chance he got and tried to raise her impression of him.

They talked about everything and anything.

Although she rejected him before, they never minded that, she still generously treated him as a friend.

Could it be fate?

The more he interacted with Shen DaiYing, the more he was mesmerized. He felt at peace just by sitting next to her and talking with her.

However, Shen DaiYing was distracted.

Lately, she has still been observing that person in secret, the maid, Elena.

To Lin Xiao, she may just be a debt repaying maid, but that was just his own wishful thinking. Elena’s feelings for him was definitely not simple.

Shen DaiYing suspected that Elena actually likes Lin Xiao! But she couldn’t say it because of some reason.

Although she didn’t have any evidence, and it didn’t at all look that way, but she trusted her intuition.

In order to obtain the real answer, Shen DaiYing had been looking for an opportunity to avoid Lin Xiao and get some alone time with Elena.

That day, she finally got the chance!
