Picked up a Demon King to be a Maid Chapter 170

Lin Xiao often admired Rosie.

Girls from big households were indeed different, although she's stubborn at times, and has a bad temper, but she has a good grasp on people, she could deduce that he knew about Shen DaiYing simply because he wasn't surprised.

“I don't know, I don't understand, don't talk drivel.” Lin Xiao yawned and denied it, “Isn't it natural that Sister Ying is powerful? As for the other two mysteries, ask her yourself.”

He obviously couldn't tell her that he obtained testimony that Shen DaiYing was a killer, right? What's more, he couldn't say that her next target might be in this competition…

Although he formed an alliance with Rosie, he won't use this kind of method to wreck the engagement.

“Rather than me, is your relationship with Caesar already over? Don't grieve too much, you're a good woman, you'll definitely find an outstanding man!” Lin Xiao was afraid that she would mention Shen DaiYing again, so he quickly changed the subject.

“Hmph, when did you learn to comfort people. Lin Xiao, you aren't planning to take advantage of me when I'm heartbroken, right?”

“Uh… then please wear black silk stockings and high heels, and let's see who's more beautiful, you or Sister Ying.” Lin Xiao gazed at Rosie's short legs and smirked.

“Tsk, Sister Ying this, Sister Ying that, how disgusting! Does she even recognize you as such?”

“Save it, dreg that was thrown away by Caesar has no right to talk about me.”

“W-hat do you know? I-I'm just purposely whetting his appetite, do you understand, idiot?” Rosie pouted and angrily hammered Lin Xiao's back, making Elena turn once again with a cold glare.

Rosie's logic was like so.

Actually she already knew that Caesar didn't give her the cold-shoulder, he was just worried about her and didn't want her to participate in the competition. She wasn't an idiot, of course, she could tell what that blockhead Caesar was thinking about.

But if she knew, why did she purposely continue to ignore Caesar?

The answer was of course, one must loosen the reins to grasp them better!

“Hmph, I'll make him understand that I, Rosie, doesn't have to marry him! I won't step down until he apologizes to me, let's see who lasts longer!” Rosie clenched her fists and continue pounding Lin Xiao's back.

“C-cough… can you stop? Caesar's going to get jealous!” Although it was comfortable getting his back hammered, Elena looking back from time to time made him feel uncomfortable, he had a strange sense of guilt and couldn't look her in the eyes.

Hmph, a mere maid that was so indifferent to him lately knows now to worry about her master? It's too late!

Lin Xiao wanted to say something and tease Elena to make it feel less awkward, but he never expected her to suddenly stop and turn to stare at him.

“Hm? Elena, what is it?” Her stop aroused Shen DaiYing's attention.

So Shen DaiYing also stopped, and naturally, Caesar that was leading also stopped, so everyone had their attention focused on Lin Xiao.

“What do you want to do?” Lin Xiao was flustered.

Was Elena planning on committing domestic violence?

Although he chatted with Rosie a bit, but Elena had no reason to be so angry, besides, she doesn't even like him so why's she jealous?

Elena didn't speak and continued to glare at Lin Xiao, her gaze becoming increasingly ice-cold.

“D-did I do something wrong?”

The atmosphere became heavier.

Lin Xiao innocently scratched his head, while Rosie looked up in the sky while humming, her expression was saying that it had nothing to do with her and she was innocent.

“Pervert!”

Elena quietly cursed him, then gave him a look.

“Um, you guys…” Shen DaiYing thought they were fighting and wanted to come mediate, but deep inside she wanted to ‘watch a show' so she couldn't take a step further.

It was the first time seeing them fight, if she continued to observe, then she could determine their relationship, right?

And so everyone began watching the show.

“Elena, you…” Lin Xiao blinked and saw her want to say her hesitant expression then remembered something.

The anticipated fight didn't happen.

Although she angrily cursed at him and called him a ‘pervert', but based on his experience of being insulted by Elena, he could tell that she was blaming him for not being able to understand her.

She was hinting at him that her magic detection radar had a reaction!

Because no one else knew about her special skill, in order to keep it a secret, she used this method to pass on the message to Lin Xiao.

“Uh… Elena, are you angry? I was just joking, it's not that serious right?” Lin Xiao continued the conversation.

He was actually asking, is the enemy strong?

Elena stopped, then raised a corner of her mouth, like she was something, not bad.

“Hmph, why don't you just go die?” She instantly countered.

Lin Xiao understood, the enemies were extremely powerful, completely different from those small fries!

“Tsk, what did I do wrong? Raise your head and look, we're in a competition, no one has time for you to get angry!”

「Raise your head」,「time」, he was actually asking the enemies position and time of arrival.

“You! … Hmph, then I'll shut up right now, okay!” Elena coldly scoffed, then turned her head towards the forest to the left and stopped arguing with him.

「I'll shut up right now」,「forest to the left」, Elena was saying that the enemies were lying in ambush to the left and can strike at any time!

“That's right, a maid should obediently listen to their master.” Lin Xiao nodded his head in satisfaction, then gently took Elena's hand and pulled her towards him, “Come, follow me, if someone ambushed us, you have to stay close.”

“…” Elena endured her impulse of wanting to break free and continued to act along with him.

“You guys… reconciled?” Shen DaiYing didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

This was the fastest fight she's ever seen, just a second ago she was cursing him a pervert, and just in two sentences they went back to their intimate master-servant relationship.

What a loving relationship, really makes people jealous.

“Cough, cough… please don't mind. Everyone please raise your vigilance, and be careful of the surrounding enemies… especially the forest to the left!” Lin Xiao cleared his throat and adopted a serious tone, “If there are people laying in ambush there, then we won't have time to counter… so vanguard Caesar, I'm leaving the patrol of the forest to you!”

“Ambush?”

Before he finished, a minute sound came from the forest.
