Picked up a Demon King to be a Maid

Chapter 441: Ordinarily Living

W-what do you want to say? If you want to order me around, save it I-I wont fall for it again.

Lin Xiao has always been very brazen towards her and seldom serious. Xiao Hua knew that when hes serious, hes either planning on saying something corny to bluff her or using some logic to make her listen to him, anyways, nothing good will come of it.

Dont worry, I have no plans on ordering you, I just want to tell you something.

Oh, then hurry up and say it. The miss will be back soon and if she sees me alone in a room with you, shell beat me to death!

Hm, is she that violent?

Of course! Its like she becomes a completely different person if it has something to do with you!

Hehe, really? Doesnt that mean Im very important to her? Thats great, so she cares about me that much

Uh can you be a bit normal with what youre focusing on? Xiao Hua rolled her eyes and rubbed her cheeks, So, what did you want to say?

Hm cough. Lin Xiao gently coughed and got back on topic, Xiao Hua, gathering information must be tough, right?

Its alright, my ninjutsu lets me erase my presence so that I can blend in like a normal believer, so its not that hard. Xiao Hua responded honestly.

Perhaps in Lin Xiaos eyes, Xiao Hua was a ninja that hid in the sewers all day, but actually, her days werent too bad. She ate, lived, and dressed like a normal believer, its just that no one knew her identity.

Speaking of that, theres something funny that happens because of Xiao Hua, every time Snow arranged accommodations, there would always be one extra person for some reason, and they would never be able to get to the bottom of it, like there was a ghost or something.

But even if its not hard, youre in a dangerous position. Lin Xiao nodded and continued.

Its okay, the only ones that can see through me are that finger of death and third apostle, even your sister Snow cant see me, oh uh, I forgot she was blind, sorry.

Xiao Hua accidentally said the wrong thing and awkwardly apologized.

Lin Xiao didnt mind it and waved his hands, Xiao Hua, whatever the case may be, youve been a big help.

Hm its nothing, I just spoke a bit with your sisters servant.

No, its not something trivial. I just told you to find the spy, but you also went out of your way to help her if it wasnt for you, my stubborn sister wouldnt have the chance to open her mouth to curse me anymore.

Its not that big of a deal Xiao Hua felt uncomfortable from being complimented, So what did you want to tell me? No matter how much you compliment me, i-it wont do any good for you.

I just wanted to thank you Snow doesnt know, but I do, so there are some things that I have to say in her stead.

Lin Xiao paused and walked right in front of Xiao Hua. He gently patted her shoulder and then looked her straight in her eyes.

Xiao Hua, thank you very much for saving my sister, I will never forget this.

Eh? Y-you

Xiao Hua was stunned and never expected Lin Xiao to thank her so formally. She didnt know how to respond at all.

What should she do? He was seriously thanking her, so she should at least say something, right?

She has always treated Lin Xiao as an annoying young master and never had a good attitude toward him, but now that he was sincerely thanking her, she cant keep on giving him a bad attitude.

But how should she respond?

Why arent you saying anything?

Lin Xiao thought that she wasnt saying anything because she wasnt satisfied with his thanks, so he smiled and continued saying something even more shocking.

Dont worry, its not just lip service Xiao Hua, you saved my sister, so as thanks, Im willing to do one thing for you.

W-what did you say? Can you repeat that?

Im saying that Im willing to do one thing for you, anything, as long as its within my power I can help you buy luxury goods no matter how expensive it is, like gold, gemstones, thats what you girls like, right.

Gold and gemstones?

What, you dont believe me? Lin Xiao stuck out a finger and shook it, I may be poor, but my friends are all rich! Not mentioning Rosie and Caesar, I saved Claire once, so if I asked her for money, she definitely wont reject me.

Hm Xiao Hua blinked and still didnt respond.

She trusted that Lin Xiao wasnt lying, but she didnt speak because she didnt believe herself!

If she was shocked when she heard Lin Xiao thank her, now she was really confused! It was like she was in a different world and she was doubting her own identity.

She was just a servant and was serving others since she was a child and ordered around like a slave. She would already be very grateful if they were more considerate and treated her better and not always hit or scold her all the time.

Lin Xiao was different from the others, although he also liked ordering her around, he also worries for her safety and didnt want her to take risks. He also sincerely thanked her after finishing her word and even wants to reward her?

Wasnt it a matter of course for the servant to help the young master? So why was he rewarding her, its unheard of!

Are you really going to reward me?

Of course.

Helping me with something, or buying me something any of that?

Anything you like.

O-okay then let me think about it.

Xiao Hua slapped her own cheeks and was finally sure that she wasnt dreaming, so she began thinking.

She could get Lin Xiao to do anything for her, this is the first time in her life getting to order someone around. This was a new feeling, but she didnt hate it and it felt comfortable.

But what was she going to get Lin Xiao to do?

She couldnt think of anything.

She was a servant and was part of Shen Yue Ge, so she didnt have much freedom. She also didnt have any grudges, so she didnt really have anything she wanted Lin Xiaos help with.

As for money, she didnt want any, even if she had money, she wouldnt know what to do with it. If she actually liked money, would she even need Lin Xiao to give it to her? With her ability, she could easily steal as much money as she wants.

As for expensive accessories, she prides hherself on being a normal girl, she wasnt pretty and her hoarse voice didnt sound nice, even if she wore the most expensive accessories and the most luxurious clothes, she would still just be a servant girl.

Furthermore its not like she wanted to seduce anyone, so if she dressed up all pretty, who would she show it to?

The miss? The master of Shen Yue Ge? Or to Lin Xiao?

Hmph, whoever it may be, the only one she wouldnt show is Lin Xiao!

Xiao Hua thought for a while and finally thought of a suitable response.

Hm I dont really have anything I want you to do, I just want you to treat the miss well, just promise me that.

Just that?

Yes, just that. Xiao Hua nodded.

She was happy seeing ShenDai Ying happy, so only that had meaning to her.

But Lin Xiao shook his head.

No.

No? Why? Did you say anything? Xiao Hua almost choked and angrily questioned.

Because I would have done that even if you never asked, so that doesnt count also, I said I would help you do something, not someone else, so choose something else.

Hm then theres nothing else!

Is there nothing you want to do?

No.

Nothing you want?

No.

People you care about?

Other than the miss no.

So you dont have this or that, so what are you looking forward to in the future?

Future expectations? I dont have any of that either.

Then what are you living for?

Eh?

In the end, Xiao Hua was speechless and couldnt respond to Lin Xiaos question.

Yes, what was she living for?

She was an orphan and almost starved to death before ShenDai Ying brought her home and saved her. So naturally, she became her servant, at that time her life was pure and simple, she was fed well, she was warm and slept well too, that was her whole life.

Then she was recruited into Shen Yue Ge because of her natural talent and her life completely changed.

She didnt know what kind of talent she had, she was just a completely normal servant, but the master told her that her normalness was her talent. Then he trained her into an outstanding spy, she was responsible for information gathering while also being ShenDai Yings personal liaison.

From that time on, she really didnt know what she was living for anymore, if she had to have a reason, it was probably for ShenDai Ying.

But Lin Xiao was now asking for a meaning to her life other than ShenDai Ying did she have something like that?
