Picked up a Demon King to be a Maid

Chapter 246: Non-Existent Dilemma

Chapter 246: Non-Existent Dilemma

Shen DaiYing!?

Elena was startled by Shen DaiYings sudden appearance and took two steps back.

Shen DaiYing was not even ten steps away from her, but she didnt notice her approach at all!

Even though Elena could see her, her perception skills couldnt touch Shen DaiYing, like a spirit without a body.

Detecting Elenas misgivings, Shen DaiYing smugly curled her lips.

She was actually hiding nearby the entire time and happened to overhear Elenas outburst. She didnt like what she heard and purposely sneaked behind Elena to scare her.

Its strange, Im clearly right in front of you, yet you cant feel my existence, why is that? Shen DaiYing smiled as she answered herself, Thats because Im an assassin! Hiding from others is my specialty other than that, I excel even more in killing!

As she said that, she lightly pulled her hand across her neck as she gazed at Elena, as if hinting at something.

Tsk

Elena clicked her tongue and took a good look at her.

Both her legs were bruised, her clothes ragged, with a pale complexion. Shen DaiYing seemed seriously injured, even if she was smiling and talking calmly, but Elena could tell that she was barely hanging on.

Not just that, Elena also noticed that even though her clothes were covered in dirt, her legs and face were still clean. Even in this state, she didnt forget to display her bodys most beautiful place, she really was a vixen to the bone.

What is she doing? Is she showing off? Whats the point?

Elena felt agitated and turned to look at the idiot lying on the ground and noticed that he already was out of it.

Tsk, perverted fool.

Elena cursed inwardly.

Sister Ying, i-is that you? Lin Xiao tried to turn his head but couldnt see her appearance and could only guess based on her voice.

Un, its me. Shen DaiYing gently responded.

Thats great, I knew that you would wait for me! I just knew it! I

Thud.

Lin Xiao tried to use his arms to support his body but ended up just like before and fell back into the ground.

Hehe, look at you, what are you so rushed for, dont force yourself.

Watching Lin Xiao struggle, she smiled and slowly walked over.

Of course Ill wait for you, no matter how long, even if you dont come, Ill be waiting.

As her shoulders brushed past Elenas, Shen DaiYings expression grew dark for a moment. As they exchanged glances, they could read anger or disgust from each others eyes.

If I dont wait, then I wont even have a chance to win. Ive already lost the first round after all.

Lin Xiao never heard Shen DaiYings muttering, thats because it was meant for another aloof maid.

Lost? Sorry, I have no intentions of competing with you, so you dont have to fight me for it.

Oh? So youre saying that Im not even qualified to compete with you? Shen DaiYing raised her brows and her tone was slightly provocative.

Tsk think what you like.

Hehe, Elena, its not good to be overconfident. I have more confidence that I can deal with men better than you.

Then you can try.

Do you think that you can get him just with big breasts?

Oh, then slender legs wont necessarily be a pleaser either, right?

You

Hey, what are you guys talking about?

Lin Xiao couldnt help but get curious when they left him hanging as they whispered to each other.

Hehe, nothing, dont move, Ill help you!

Shen DaiYing raised her brows at Elena and quickly ran over to grab Lin Xiaos arm and used her shoulders to support his body.

Really, a maid that cant even hold on to her master and just watches him fall to the ground sigh, if he was my master I definitely wouldnt let him fall.

Shen DaiYing said this while looking at Lin Xiao with her affectionate eyes, but it was obvious it was meant for Elena.

Hmph, sorry for that. How about we switch, and you be his maid?

Okay, thats what I want! I

Uh Sister Ying, d-dont blame her, shes also tired. Lin Xiao awkwardly scratched his head and helped speak for her.

Oh? Is that so. Shen DaiYing was a bit upset but she backed off and continued on, So, how did you guys end up like this, did you meet Lesser Devils?

Un.

Just like what Shen DaiYing had told him, Anderson was planning to use the Lesser Devils to slaughter the students. Thanks to her information, Lin Xiao was able to make it in time and save them, avoiding any fatalities.

What was more important was that he saved that maid that haunted his dreams, and it was thanks to Shen DaiYings information.

But Lin Xiao, dealing with those monsters should be easy for you how did you end up like this? Or did something else happen? Shen DaiYing asked while glancing at Elenas reaction.

Uh, actually

Shen DaiYing was really sharp minded, and got right to the main point.

It should have been a handsome heroic rescue, but Lin Xiao ended up riddled with injuries and even rolled around lamely in the mud earlier.

Hm, those monsters werent that strong, but a small mishap happened heh, its nothing. Sister Ying, anyways, arent I alive and came to look for you!

Lin Xiao tried to be as vague as possible and also observed Elenas reaction, taking her emotions into considerations.

Although what happened pissed him off, but her performance in the end was still passable, otherwise he would have took care of her right there!

But he couldnt say that to Shen DaiYing, and could only muddle by and then change the topic.

Sister Ying, I really have to thank you this time! If it wasnt for your information, a lot of people wouldve died, also um, Sister Ying s-sorry.

Hehe, why are you apologizing, you only did what you should have done.

But I

Okay Lin Xiao, if you have to apologize, then tell me what are you apologizing for? Shen DaiYing stared at Lin Xiaos eyes, but she was still staring at the quiet maid out of the corner of her eyes.

She obviously knew that Lin Xiao was trying to change the topic, but thats exactly what she wanted.

Uh, I He couldnt respond.

Hurry Up! Dont try to change the topic again. Or was everything you said before a lie?

No, no, no, of course not! Its just

Thinking about her question, Lin Xiao understood her intentions.

She was trying to force him to take a position.

Why did he leave, and why did he come back? This was the punishment she was giving to this half-hearted man, Shen DaiYing used his guilt as leverage to push him into a corner and force him to make a choice between her and a certain maid!

Calculative? Manipulative? No, Lin Xiao didnt feel that it was excessive, rather he felt guilty,

Sister Ying, sorry I can guarantee that Ill never leave you behind again.

Lin Xiao paused for a moment and responded.

Then what about this time?

This time? Uh this time was an exception! Sorry, I never thought everything through, but I swear that itll never happen again! So this time sorry, p-please forgive me!

Forgive this time, itll never happen again, is it

Lin Xiaos answer didnt satisfy her since he cleverly avoided the crucial part.

On the surface, the only thing that Lin Xiao did wrong was abandoning her, and apologizing for it was natural, but Shen DaiYing only cared about another thing.

She believed that if nothing similar happens again, then Lin Xiao would keep his word, but the problem was, who can guarantee that a similar dilemma wouldnt happen again?

Even if Lin Xiao did his best, he wouldnt be able to do everything perfectly.

If he was at a fork in the road and faced with two difficult choices, how would he choose?

Would it still be like this time or would it change?

Looking at his slightly evasive eyes, Shen DaiYing could only helplessly sigh and then laughed at herself.

Idiot, I was just messing with you why are you so serious? Its not like Im your anyone, so you dont need to swear to me. Shen DaiYing squeezed his waist and jokingly rebuked him, Youre saying it like Im your fiance, Lin Xiao, arent you getting over your head?

Ah? A-am I?

Of course! Did you think that Im yours just because you saw me naked and took my first kiss? Hmph, dont get carried away, Im not a woman that you can win over so easily. Youre still a long way from getting me!

Shen DaiYing purposely talked about being seen naked and having her first kiss stolen in front of Elena, like she was afraid that Elena wouldnt know of what they had done together.

Tsk, vixen.

Elena didnt want to listen to her crap, and looked away, out of sight out of mind.

She hated sensitive and fickle woman like Shen DaiYing the most. Always making those ambiguous statements that would cause people to misunderstand and then obtain momentarily satisfaction from that, immersed in a fake comfort and ambiguous. Its just a pity for a pure virgin like Lin Xiao, getting played like a fool.

But it didnt matter, because soon, Elena wouldnt have to listen to Shen DaiYings crap all day.

As long as Snow keeps her promise, then she could return to the Forest of the End.

So Shen DaiYings dilemma didnt exist.

Because she was leaving soon.
