Picked up a Demon King to be a Maid

Chapter 144: Colored Candies

Winterless City

Loran Academy main entrance

In a not so distant corner, a beautiful girl with slender legs was squatting next to a candy selling stall, engrossed in picking beautiful multi-colored candy.

The girl was wearing red high heels, sexy black silk stockings wrapped around her slender legs. But because of the two strange swords hanging by her side, no one dared to approach her and could only peep from afar.

Today, princess Shen DaiYing was still as enchanting as before, her affectionate eyes concealed by her long glistening black hair.

Loran Academys carriages were waiting at the main entrance, she had to leave Winterless City now to attend the Academy Tournament.

Before that, she had to choose a piece of candy.

Xiao Hua, I have to go soon. She had her head lowered and was choosing candy, but mentioned something completely unrelated.

Hearing her words, the shop owner slightly nodded.

It was a young girl, wearing ordinary clothes, and a wide sunhat, just by slightly lowering her head, her smile would be covered by the hat.

She was no different than a normal peddler, but the aura she emitted was not what a normal peddler should possess.

A meager sense of existence. It could be described like that.

She was clearly a young girl and should be eye-catching by selling candy here, but the passersby paid no attention to her existence. Her every move melted into the background, like a pebble by the side of the road, or a scratch on a wall, although both existed, no one would take note of them.

Ive already eaten the three pieces of candy, the children didnt notice, everything was successful. Shen DaiYing quietly reported to this young girl called Xiao Hua.

Of course, she knew what she meant by the three pieces of candy.

Miss, thanks for all your hard work. Her sincerity didnt seem fake, although her expression was covered by her hat, her tone sounded concerned.

Un. Shen DaiYing bluntly responded and quickly sped up her pace, So I just have to obediently play the role of the fiancee from now, right? Although I dont really want to, I will listen to my orders.

No. Xiao Hua shook her head, paused, as if saying the next line took a lot of courage, Miss you still have one more piece of candy.

What? Theres still more? Shen DaiYing frowned, the only thing left in her squinted eyes was resent, But you clearly said that as long as I ate three, I could

Miss so sorry, this was masters request. Xiao Hua slowed down and seemed rather helpless.

Tsk! Shen DaiYing clicked her tongue, and unwillingly said, But, is this really the last one?

It should be sorry.

Xiao Hua once again sincerely apologized, thinking that Shen DaiYing would be mad, but she never complained again.

Okay, it has nothing to do with you, this is my fate. Shen DaiYing took a deep breath and bitterly smiled saying, What about it? Now that its come this far, one or two more wont make a difference.

Miss

Finally, Xiao Hua raised her head.

Concealed under the brim of her hat was a young and immature face, she wasnt beautiful, more ordinary. There were some freckles covering her small nose, mouth and round cheeks, like a neighborhood sister.

Xiao Hua who was sitting on a stool, bent down and retried a candy wrapped by paper and handed it over to Shen DaiYIng.

She accepted it and silently stared at the small thing in her palm in a daze.

The last one She retracted her unnecessary sentiments, tore off the wrapper and retrieved the candy. It was a small red ball, the translucent candy revealed beautiful patterns under the sunlight, making one want to lick it, letting their tongue melt in that sweetness.

Him of all people A slight smile once again appeared on her face.

Of course, that was only a smile of resignation.

Ill do it. Shen DaiYing replied.

Youll definitely succeed, miss!

Hehe, if only. Shen DaiYing stood up, tossing that piece of red candy away, preparing to leave, but at that time, Xiao Hua stopped her.

Miss!

Is there still something else?

Um, I just wanted to ask Xiao Hua gazed at Shen DaiYing with a complex expression and stuttered, I-it seems like youre getting close to a man that person doesnt seem to be prince Caesar.

Eh? Shen DaiYing stopped.

Although what she said was ambiguous and she never identified the other party, they were both well aware of who she was talking about.

After coming to Loran Academy, there was no other man she got closer to other than Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao was a variable in the plan, he wasnt really from the Great Qin Empire, just a descendant. He didnt understand or know anything, so he wouldnt threaten the plan, but his existence affected an important person.

Shen DaiYing herself.

Miss, perhaps you might have not even noticed it yourself, but I can tell. Xiao Hua seriously said, There has never been a man that has walked into your world before, but Lin Xiaos existence has already disturbed your mind Miss, you cannot go astray.

Xiao Hua, stop joking! Going astray impossible! Shen DaiYing blushed and quickly denied it, but all she saw was her attentive gaze.

At this time, her abnormally red face and anxious denial, didnt that just support what Xiao Hua said? If she wasnt affected, why did she act so strangely?

As a beautiful pricness she has encountered countless noble males courting her, but she has never responded, acting as a perfect princess.

But this time was different, she was affected

From his initial confession to them gradually coming close, to him seeing a side of her that no one knew, to lastly being forcefully carried into a small dark room

Xiao Hua knew everything.

So she couldnt deny it.

Miss, dont forget, youre Caesars fiancee, you cant get close to any other guy! Otherwise

Hearing her, Shen DaiYings heart dropped.

Damn!

Master cant find out about Lin Xiaos existence, otherwise, in order to eliminate variables from the plan, he would definitely at that time, even she cant save him!

Although hes not anyone special to her, she doesnt want him to be hurt because of her.

What should she do? Ask Xiao Hua to keep a secret? But she had no reason to take the risk to help her!

Xiao Hua, I

Hehe, dont worry, Ill pretend I dont know about it. Without waiting for Shen DaiYing to beg her, she took the lead.

Hearing that, Shen DaiYing suddenly opened her eyes wide open.

She never expected Xiao Hua to propose to help her keep the secret.

Why?

However, you have to answer a question.

Okay, anything!

Un, my question is do you think hes a good man?

Him? Shen DaiYing thought she was joking, but after seeing her ardent gaze, she carefully thought about it and finally gave an answer, So-so. He just has ability, but hes unmotivated, unambitious, unethical, and lecherous, but most importantly, he already has a woman next to him yet to me

Shen DaiYing couldnt finish her sentence, so Xiao Hua picked it up.

Miss, are you referring to that big breasted maid? How could that kind of servant compare to you?

Sigh, shes not just a maid. Shen DaiYing wanted to explain to her how important of a place Elena took in Lin Xiaos heart, but quickly noticed the conversation deviating in a weird way, No! Xiao Hua, its not what you think! Im not like that

Hehe, miss, you dont have to explain. Xiao Hua knows, Xiao Hua knows everything.

Saying that, she smiled and shook her head, once again bending down concealing her face with her hat, and cut down her sense of existence.

Miss, you have to come back safe and sound.

She organized her candy bag little by little, preparing to leave.

Have a nice trip.

Xiao Hua?

The abrupt goodbye left Shen DaiYing flabbergasted, until she heard a familiar voice.

Sister Ying?

Eh? Lin Xiao?

She turned back to see a black-haired youth.

Sister Ying, what are you doing?

I-I was just

Shen DaiYing wanted to explain that she was buying candy, but she noticed that Xiao Hua was already long gone after she turned back around.

Worthy to be called. outstanding ninja

Never mind lets go meet up with them. What did you go to do? Whyd you just come back

Me? I wanted to look for someone, but she wouldnt see me! Sigh.

Saying that, Lin Xiao couldnt help but get angry.
