Chapter 368 – Late Night Private Meeting

“Elena”

The silver moonlight shone down and illuminated the side of the girl’s face, and left a thin silver glow on her hair.

“It’s so late already, what are you doing”

“I can’t sleep, so I’m looking at the scenery.” Lin Xiao leaned against the railing and casually responded.

“The scenery” Elena slightly frowned and turned to look at the dark and empty streets, “Did you see a ghost”

“Yes.” Lin Xiao seriously nodded his head.

“Really What kind” Elena believed it and asked curiously.

“A female ghost.

Very beautiful with a large chest, like you, walking around with a maid outfit, did you see”

“Tsk…”

Realizing she was duped, Elena was about to get angry, but she remembered why she came and swallowed her temper and leaned against the railing deep in thought.

The return fire Lin Xiao expected never came so he turned to look at Elena and was dumbfounded.

Recently, Elena had indeed been a bit strange.

She’s been restless ever since they left Nighttown like she was hiding something.

She never even argued with him a single time since and has been very obedient, although Lin Xiao liked that, but it made him uneasy.

“What’s wrong” Lin Xiao asked.

“Nothing.”

“Nothing… then why aren’t you sleeping”

“I-I…” Elena opened her mouth but didn’t respond.

She couldn’t say that she wasn’t able to fall asleep because she had something on her mind and she sensed Lin Xiao coming here so she also came to talk to him.

“I-I also can’t sleep and came to look at the scenery.” Elena could only imitate his words.

“Uh… it’s the middle of the night and pitch-black, what is there to look at”

“Just like you, ghosts.

There’s a perverted male ghost talking, did you not notice”

“… Hey, don’t look at me, I’m not a perverted male ghost!”

This Elena, just as he said she was being obedient, she’s acting naughty again!

But just as Lin Xiao was about to say something, Elena looked down and went quiet again.

Lin Xiao finally realized there was something wrong.

“Elena, do you have something you want to say to me”

From what he remembered, the only time she acted like this is when she was holding back something she wanted to say.

But what he didn’t know was what she wanted to say.

Did he do something wrong recently that made her angry Or did someone else offend her and it wasn’t convenient for her to say it directly

Lin Xiao didn’t know and could only look at her eyes and waited for her answer.

“I do have something I want to say…”

“Then go ahead, I’m listening.”

“I-I… you… um…” Elena stammered but she still couldn’t say it.

It was strange, she had already mulled over what to say in the corridor earlier, but when she saw his innocent smile, she forgot everything.

But even if she didn’t say it, Lin Xiao got a general idea.

“You must want to thank me… that’s not possible.” Lin Xiao purposely dragged his voice out to observe Elena’s reaction, “The demon king wouldn’t lower herself to thank a perverted human, so you definitely aren’t here to thank me, right”

“I…”

“I know, you must be worried about the bet between me and Snow, right”

“Mm.”

This time, Elena just nodded.

“I know… you must feel that our wager is too serious.

I actually had a big fight with her to help you and I put my own happiness on the line, and you’re a bit scared, right”

Elena nodded again.

“Hm, I get it… my good intentions might not be helping, and it might be a burden.

You’re worried that I would resent you if we fail and I would want something if we succeed, right”

“Pretty much…”

Elena hesitated and then nodded to acknowledge it.

“If that’s what’s tearing you up, then you don’t have to worry.” Lin Xiao shrugged nonchalantly and spoke frankly, “That’s right, I do believe that I should do what’s promised so I’ll help you to the end, but you don’t have to be concerned about that.”

“Is that so…”

“Yeah, so don’t worry, I won’t resent you even if I lose.” Lin Xiao shook his head and smiled, “Actually, it’s not as scary as you’re thinking.

Snow is my sister, it’s not like she’s actually going to amputate me and keep me in a tank, it’s not like she’s an actual yandere… wait, she has said something terrifying like ‘It would be nice if brother could become a doll and stay by my side forever’ before.

Could she actually be a yandere … No, no, she’s definitely joking, how could she bear to do that to me Definitely not!”

Lin Xiao wanted to comfort Elena, but as he spoke he started to scare himself.

“What, laughing at me Hmph, is my answer enough to comfort you If that’s the case, still not going to sleep”

“Lin Xiao, you do understand me… but, you still underestimate me.

I admit, your bet with Snow did make me feel some pressure… but I didn’t come to find you to talk about that.”

“No”

This time Lin Xiao couldn’t guess it.

In his eyes, Elena was an arrogant, disobedient, and bad-tempered girl.

She hated accepting unexplained favors and wanted help from others but wasn’t willing to lower herself.

She didn’t like being tied down by anyone or anything, even with the people closest to her.

For an aloof, eccentric, and problematic girl like her coming to him in the middle of the night, if it wasn’t for thanking him or complaining, then what else could it be

“Lin Xiao, I never considered your promise to be troublesome, and I never feared.

As for worrying about you getting punished by Snow… sorry, if you were really amputated, I would be happy.”

“Uh, why do you have to be so heartless!”

“Actually, I’m not that bad.” Elena didn’t bottle anything up anymore and said what she was thinking, “You rejected Snow’s suggestion and insisted on taking the risk with me and I’m happy, maybe not grateful, but I appreciate it.”

“So”

“So I want to tell you one thing.” Elena cleared her throat and declared, “I want you to trust me.”

“Ah Trust you” Lin Xiao scratched his head and didn’t understand what she meant.

“For this mission, I’ll use my full power to help you and won’t play any tricks… so I want you to trust me and let me face difficulties with you.

That’s what I wanted to say to you.”
