Chapter 285 – Poisoned and Dazed

Lin Xiao already made a decision, if he can’t think up of a better way to save ShenDai Ying in half a year, then he’ll use Elena’s dumb method and attack Lombard Kingdom with the demons to free her.

In order to do that, he first had to help Elena take care of a bunch of detestable traitors to help her regain power. Although it was troublesome, he didn’t mind, since helping Elena was already a thing he decided on. He should pay more thought and effort to that down and out monarch.

So… half a year is the deadline!

Turning an entire kingdom into an enemy for one person… it might be a bit insane, but why not!

“Lin Xiao, can I really believe you? You have to understand, no one can go against the king’s orders!” ShenDai Ying’s voice trembled but carried expectations.

Was she drunk, or was he drunk, or was the whole world drunk?

How could anything good happen to her?

“No one can go against the king, is it…” Lin Xiao smiled and responded, “No, if it’s me, I can.”

“What? … Puh! Hahaha.”

Hearing Lin Xiao say that so seriously, ShenDai Ying felt a rare assertiveness from him, this youth in front of her gave her an unprecedented peace of mind. That lazy boy suddenly turned into a reliable man, she couldn’t believe the sudden change.

“Sigh, it could be that I’m drunk, or you’re blurting out nonsense to make me happy, but I’ll believe you!”

ShenDai Ying smiled, after all was said and done, she took a couple of deep breaths, rubbed her puffy eyes and cleared her throat. It seems a lot of the alcohol already passed through and her consciousness became clearer.

Since Lin Xiao already gave her the promise she wanted, then shouldn’t she respond in kind for this pure and innocent youth that was willing to take the risk and change himself for her?

Yes, she should have responded long ago.

It’s not too late.

“Okay Lin Xiao, since you have a way, then I’ll… eh?”

ShenDai Ying smiled sweetly and as she was planning to respond to Lin Xiao’s promise, before she could get her words out, she slipped and her body uncontrollably fell forwards!

The crowd cried out in alarm and felt shocked at the princess losing her composure.

“Sister Ying?”

The sudden change also surprised Lin Xiao.

He only just reacted, he was actually already in a tough spot! If he made another scene, he really didn’t know what he should do.

Think about it, a foreign princess, the prince’s fiancée, under everyone’s watchful eyes, personally invited an unfamiliar male to dance at her engagement party. While they danced, she stopped and started crying in his arms ignoring everyone’s shocked and ridiculing gazes.

Although Lin Xiao enjoyed it, and used the atmosphere to his advantage and boldly promised ShenDai Ying, he was still someone who liked to keep a low profile. Making him hug a princess in front of all the nobles of Winterless City was too hard for him.

Earlier, when he noticed ShenDai Ying sobering up, he wanted to quickly leave and find his disobedient maid. But he never thought that there would be a sudden shocking change…

ShenDai Ying slipped and lost her balance and her body fell uncontrollably forwards.

Falling?

That won’t do!

A princess falling onto the dance floor, at that time her sexy clothes would be dirtied and will reveal her alluring skin and would get stared at by the surrounding noblemen, how could that be allowed? Losing face was less important, her reputation and integrity was on the line! If she fell now, then she might be labelled as, the one who made a fool of herself after getting drunk, or losing her mind seducing a lover, then that would be problematic!

In order to avoid any scandals, Lin Xiao quickly grabbed her hand and used his other arm to grab her slender waist and forcibly pulled her back!

“Eh? Lin Xiao!”

Noticing him pulling her, she leaped towards him and grabbed onto his neck and wouldn’t let go, afraid that she would fall again.

But something unfortunate happened once again.

It was strange, ShenDai Ying was able to maintain perfect balance and dance gracefully even when drunk, but now that she sobered up a bit and she felt very comfortable, she wasn’t able to control her body anymore and lost her balance again.

But this time, it wasn’t just her…

“Hey! Sister Ying, don’t grab onto me so forcefully… I…”

“What? Eh?”

Because she was too nervous, she didn’t notice that she was strangling him. He shakily fell back a couple of steps, then his knees went weak and fell back along with ShenDai YIng.

“Ohhhh!!”

The crowd gasped.

“Quick, go check if Princess ShenDai Ying is injured or not… wait, eh?”

“What? Why are they…”

The crowd quickly began murmuring, but everyone watched from far away and no one actually went over to help.

That’s because they didn’t know what they were looking at… The fiancée of the fifth prince of Lombard kingdom was sprawled on top of that impoverished boy, her slender long legs around his waist, pressing her chest down against him with both her arms around his neck. Her posture was perverse like she was trying to engage in certain acts with a man.

And that wasn’t what was most frightening.

No one could have expected that when they fell to the ground, their lips touched!

Lin Xiao didn’t even have time to complain about the pain on the back of his head and his mouth was already blocked by ShenDai Ying! The sensation of her gentle moist lips and hot breath rushed to his head.

It felt so good, her soft, smooth and warm lips that he couldn’t let go, although it was a kiss like before, but it was intense, more enjoyable, he even almost couldn’t help himself and wanted to stick his tongue out through her lips and capture that pink little tongue!

“Miss!?”

Finally, a voice shattered the awkwardness.

A freckled girl suddenly appeared and called out.

She didn’t care about anyone else’s gaze and forced her way through the crowd and quickly ran next to ShenDai Ying, but found that she was riding on top of Lin Xiao, the perverse posture made her blush. So she quickly helped ShenDai Ying up and rescued her from the lips of the perverted demon!

“Xiao Hua? It’s you, hehe.” ShenDai Ying looked at Xiao Hua in a daze.

“Miss, what’s wrong? Are you hurt? Say something!”

Xiao Hua quickly helped tidy up her clothes, then used her shoulder to support ShenDai Ying so that she wouldn’t fall again.

“Ah! Miss, your lips are bleeding!” Xiao Hua noticed traces of blood on her lips right after supporting her and couldn’t help but ask with worry.

“Ah… it’s not a big deal, probably from when we collided earlier.”

ShenDai Ying blinked and slowly stuck out her tongue, licking the blood and feeling the warmth left on her lips. She couldn’t help but blush and smiled foolishly.

“Miss! Why are you still smiling when your lips are cut?”

“Hm? Why can’t I? Xiao Hua, do you know? I just got promised something amazing earlier.”

“Hah? Miss! What are you talking about, it seems like you were drugged by that pervert and are dazed!”

“Hehe, perhaps, I’ve already been poisoned by him…”

“Miss!?”

Xiao Hua was pissed off, her conversation resulted in nothing, so she took out her anger on Lin Xiao!

Xiao Hua kicked him when she saw him climbing up.

“Damn pervert, if you dare bully my lady, I’ll kill you!”

“Uh… how did I bully her?”

“Look at her lips! You pervert, you bit it, right?”

“No! She was holding onto my neck and it made me fall…”

Lin Xiao didn’t bother arguing with her and also licked his lips, feeling the remaining scent and silently reflected on that wonderful memory. When he slowly looked up, his gazed coincidentally met ShenDai Ying’s, they smiled and silently exchanged their feelings.

I promise to wait for you.

Even if she didn’t say it, ShenDai Ying still opened her mouth and tried to form words with her lips.

“Miss, you’re still exchanging flirting glances with each other!?”

Xiao Hua was already going mad with these two.

If they stayed, god forbids what else they would do.

In order to not let it develop to somewhere it couldn’t be controlled anymore, Xiao Hua could only explain to everyone that ShenDai Ying sprained her ankle and quickly left the hall with her.

When they were leaving, ShenDai Ying was still reluctant to leave and kept looking back at Lin Xiao. Lin Xiao just smiled foolishly and didn’t come back to his senses until they completely disappeared from his view. Noticing the surrounding envious and angry gazes, he didn’t want to stay and quickly left.

But before leaving, he still needed to find another idiot…
