Picked up a Demon King to be a Maid

Chapter 204: Why Do I Like You? Because…

Chapter 204: Why Do I Like You? Because…

Shen DaiYing instantly came to a realization after seeing the bowknot.

At that time, because Lin Xiao accidentally injured her legs during the intramural competition. He tied a bowknot on her leg after helping her apply the medicine, and that night she accidentally dropped it at the scene of the crime

That was evidence that only Lin Xiao knew about.

So thats how Lin Xiao saw through her identity and already knew that she wasnt a charming princess, but a coldblooded killer!

Shen DaiYing couldnt help but want to roar with laughter when she recalled how Lin Xiao got along with her. She had thought that she was the only one wearing a mask of pretense, who would have known, that he was also a similar man!

Lin Xiao knew about her true self but he didnt expose her and even flirted with her like nothing was wrong, playing a boring love game between male and female

What was that?

Was he pitying her? Or toying with her?

Why!? Shen DaiYing couldnt refrain from raising her voice.

Ah? Lin Xiao was startled.

Im asking why are you doing this! Shen DaiYing clenched her teeth, as her tone raised unconsciously, Do you also want to join us? To join Shen Yue Ge if thats the case, then you probably already killed Caesar, right?

Nope, he ran away with Devoru.

Since you didnt kill him, then why did you save me!? Shen DaiYing clutched Lin Xiaos collar, and sharply questioned him, I have to kill him, otherwise, I must die there one of us is destined to die! Since you didnt want him to die, why did you save me!!!

Lin Xiao was baffled by Shen DaiYings emotions and strange logic and didnt know how to respond.

Answer me! Why did you save me! Haah? The normally gentle and charming Shen DaiYing was now hysterical, she used all her strength to demand an answer she long knew.

What else could it be?

Hes already told her twice, its already left a deep impression in her heart, how could she pretend she doesnt remember?

Okay, perhaps she just simply wanted to confirm it one more time.

Then, Lin Xiao was willing to give her that answer.

The third time

Why? Sister Ying, of course its because I like you. Lin Xiao blinked and chuckled in response.

At that moment, everything stopped.

The midday sun shone straight down, Lin Xiaos plain face was illuminated by the blinding light. Lying in his embrace, Shen DaiYing couldnt clearly see his expression.

Perhaps it was because the sun was too blinding, the backlight made everything appear blurred, or perhaps it was because of the tears that made the world misty.

To like someone, what kind of feeling was that?

Shen DaiYing didnt know, after all, shes never liked anyone before. Even if she knew about the matters between man and woman, she had no idea what it meant to like someone.

In the past, there were numerous men that said they liked her and wanted to marry her, to love her for the rest of their lives. But she knew that wasnt love, they simply wanted her for her body.

Shen DaiYing fully knew how alluring she was for males, so she also learned how to distinguish those two-faced flies.

And now, Lin Xiao said those words to her again.

Confessing like those other men

Like?

What kind of joke is that, shes a killer, both her hands were dyed in blood. She wasnt Lin Xiaos ideal perfect princess why did he like her?

If it wasnt because of her body then is there another reason?

No, she doesnt believe it!

She couldnt believe it!

You like me huh, heh heh Shen DaiYing quietly repeated his words, with a slight dejected expression.

Uh, actually, Line Xiao thought his words troubled her, so he quickly added some more, Sister Ying, I dont need you to give me a response right now, you can just treat me as a friend like usual although I saved you, b-but you dont have to do anything special of course, I wont oppose if you promise to marry me either hehe, just kidding.

What? Marry? Shen DaiYing kept repeating his words.

She didnt understand.

She absolutely had no idea about what Lin Xiao wanted!

Lin Xiao, you know that Im not the perfect lover from your fantasies, do you still like me?

Of course. Lin Xiao responded without even thinking about it.

You know that Im trained in powerful assassination techniques, do you still like me?

I do!

You know Ive killed a lot of people before, do you still like me?

I do!

You know Im a killer, a tool for a certain organization do you still like me?

I do! Or rather, I like you even more!

Why?

Because thats exactly what I want! It was unknown whether he was serious or joking, Lin Xiao responded with a smile, How great would a killer be, Sister Ying, if you can marry me, then we can

We can? We can what!?

She thought that Lin Xiao would say something like they could live in seclusion, find a small town and get married, have kids and get a plot of land and live a happy normal life, but she guessed wrong.

Lin Xiao didnt feed her those pretenses but said something that made her neck cold

Sister Ying, I never thought you were such a powerful killer, you can even instakill a group of seventh level magicians. If you marry me, then who would I need to be afraid of? I can just get you to assassinate whoever offends me!

Lin Xiao became happier the more he spoke, completely not noting Shen DaiYings increasingly cold expression.

Sister Ying, since youre an assassin, then you have to carry out your masters orders, right?

Right. Shen DaiYing tilted her head and stared at him, So?

Then, from now on, Im your master! And youre my dedicated killer, so you have to obediently listen to my orders!

Youre my master? Oh, so thats what it was Shen DaiYing bitterly smiled and suddenly understood.

She finally understood why Lin Xiao liked her.

Thats not to like someone at all.

The reason Lin Xiao approached her, talked to her and investigated her was to find proof she was a killer and that was all to get a hold of her so he could get an obedient killer.

It was unexpected but not surprising.

Perhaps thats the only reasonable answer.

Like he was responding to her supposition, he continued to speak excitedly bitterly disappointing words.

Shen DaiYing! I officially announce that youre my servant starting from right now! Youre my dedicated killer, you dont have to think, youre just a tool to carry out missions! You do whatever your master tells you to, a mere tool cannot disobey their masters orders! Do you understand?

Is that so? Then master, whats your order? Shen DaiYing had a dark expression, and asked like she already resigned herself to this fate.

Not only did he save her, he even saw through all her secrets. She was also severely injured right now and was imprisoned within Lin Xiaos embrace, so she didnt have any other choice.

So there was only one question left.

What was Lin Xiaos order?

What kind of mission would he issue as the master?

Who do you want me to kill? Caesar? Or Rosie? Or perhaps some high ranking official of Lombard Kingdom? Ill carry it out no matter who it is. Shen DaiYing responded with her machine-like voice.

No, I dont want you to kill anyone. Lin Xiao finally put on a serious expression and gazed into Shen DaiYings black eyes.

!?

Shen DaiYing! Lin Xiao suddenly shouted.

Yes. Shen DaiYing answered in a daze.

What should you call me?

Master.

Okay, now Im ordering you

What do you require of me, master?

Shen DaiYIng, Im ordering you

Yes, your order is

Im ordering you to, be, my, wife!

Yes, master wait, what did you say? Hah?

Shen DaiYing thought she misheard and looked at him incredulously, trying to read any useful information from his expression.

But she failed.

Because, Lin Xiao already pulled her into his arms!

Shen DaiYing, I order you to be my wife! Did you hear that? You cant refuse or resist, you have to obediently accept it. Stay by my side for the rest of your life, and you cant keep on doing stupid things! And you definitely cant leave me! Do you hear me?

Lin Xiao!? You you

Hearing his emotional confession, the third confession, Shen DaiYing shuddered, like she was struck by lightning. The corners of her mouth raised, her vision became blurry, and two streaks of scorching hot liquid flowed down her cheeks for some reason.

The youths warmth, she could feel it even if the waves in her heart werent settling down, but his actions were gentle like water.

Was this Lin Xiaos response?

Could, she believe in him?

To become his tool, his dedicated killer to carry out his order, that sole mission, her lifes mission

To become his wife.

Lin Xiao, do you really like me that much? You really are cute hehe, but I I What he heard were Shen DaiYings choking sobs.

The darkness in her eyes eventually disappeared and she regained her usual charming appearance. She was now back to that admirable princess.

But she was kind of strange.

Her squinted eyes were filled with tears.

Her sobbing voice began quivering
