Chapter 443 – Heart Palpitations

Lin Xiao was a bit distracted looking at this beautiful girl that resembled Caesar so much, he thought that Caesar was wearing women’s clothing and came downstairs to find him to settle the score.

But he took a good look and realized it was Claire.

So the person Xiao Hua was talking about was Claire It should be since it would be normal for her to know it was Claire with her skills, but her concern was unnecessary.

Even if he didn’t avoid her, nothing would happen between them… of course, it wasn’t just because Claire was flat and he liked big chests.

Firstly, they were just friends.

At first, they had some conflicts, but now that they mutually understand each other, Lin Xiao respected her and knows that she was an outstanding leader.

She was just a bit headstrong, but she was a good person.

Lin Xiao treated her like Rosie, a good friend of the opposite sex and he believed that Claire saw him in a similar way.

It was impossible for him to unintentionally conquer the leopard queen, he knew his place well.

Even though he had two beauties, if you think about it, it wasn’t like he was a veteran, he picked up the two of them.

Elena doesn’t have to be mentioned, she was literally picked up.

He even used despicable means to trap her with him for more than a year, and now they finally progressed to a point where they can trust each other.

As for ShenDai Ying, it was because he was lucky… he confessed then exposed her identity and somehow was able to embrace her, but was still miles away from a happy ending, they were just a couple on the surface.

Even though Xiao Hua called him a flirtatious and promiscuous scum, he was innocent.

If you said that Claire was interested in him, that would be an even bigger joke.

What Claire’s attitude was completely the opposite, not only did she kiss him, but lately she’s been very obedient and listened to him.

That’s right, but what can that prove

To Lin Xiao, the only reason Claire kissed him was that she was terrified and he coincidentally saved her.

In a situation like that, any woman would be grateful enough to do something like that.

As for her attitude change and listening to him… that can only show that Claire is a smart person.

She knew people well and made good use of them since she knows that Lin Xiao is smarter, so isn’t it normal to get his opinion

So after careful deliberation, he concluded that he would never go after Claire, and she would never have feelings for him, so Xiao Hua’s warnings were completely unnecessary.

“Hey, do you really not want to see me The first thing you say after so long is asking me why I’m here.

Don’t you think that’s too mean”

Claire questioned and noticed that he was thinking and didn’t hear her words and got impatient.

“Hey! Why aren’t you saying anything What are you thinking about”

“Ah N-nothing…”

“So, are you just going to leave me at the door”

“Uh… how could I Please come in!”

Lin Xiao quickly invited her in and brought over two chairs and sat across the table from her.

He still didn’t know why Claire came looking for him.

“Sorry I don’t have much, just some juice.” Lin Xiao politely brought her a cup of juice and smiled.

“It’s okay.”

“I heard you’ve been busy”

“Yeah, there’s a lot of stuff I have to take care of.”

“Don’t overwork yourself, make sure to get some rest.”

“I will.”

They exchanged short pleasantries then fell silent again.

They mutually observed each other with neither wanting to be too direct, so the atmosphere was a bit awkward.

“I heard your father fell ill, how is he”

“He’s coughing a lot and has to take medicine regularly.

I’ve been taking care of him the past few days and he’s been getting better.”

“That’s good, with all the domestic issues, nothing can happen to the king.”

“Hm, I understand… um, it’s rare that you would be worried about me.” Claire looked down and muttered.

“Hm, I wasn’t deliberately doing so… I just heard about it from Rosie.”

“Rosie”

“Yeah, she’s well-informed so I go to her often for gossip.”

“Is that so… I had thought that you were paying attention to me.” Claire sighed and didn’t hide the disappointment in her eyes.

Lin Xiao just forced a laugh…

Strange.

He felt like there was something wrong with Claire, she was a tomboy so how did she get womanly all of a sudden

What was going on

Of course, he didn’t know that Claire actually did a lot of preparations.

Before coming, Claire looked for someone to do light make-up for her for the first time ever.

She also changed into a fitting blouse and short skirt, she even wore small earrings.

There may not be much difference at first glance, but her aura completely changed, so it was no surprise that Lin Xiao would feel different.

But Lin Xiao wasn’t focused on her minute changes, he was mulling over her goals.

She was the visitor so she must have something she wanted to say, but he had to keep on finding topics and she didn’t say anything so he couldn’t tell what she wanted.

“Um…”

“Lin Xiao, I…”

After some silence, the two of them started speaking at the same time.

Lin Xiao naturally chose to let he speak since he was just trying to fill the silence.

“Claire, go ahead.”

“It’s actually nothing much… it’s just, I…”

Claire gently bit her lips and grasped her hands together, not knowing where to start.

“Um… I already finished reporting the mission completion to the four kingdom alliance.

As you requested, Caesar and Yao Zi contributed the most, though I don’t understand why you want to hide yourself, I did as you asked.”

Claire evidently relaxed more when she said that, in the end, her tone even perked up like she wanted to be praised.

Her femininity gave Lin Xiao the chills again, but it was clear that wasn’t what she really wanted to say and Lin Xiao didn’t know how to respond so he just nodded.

“Hm, thank you.”

“N-no need… hehe, this is something I should do.” Claire finally wasn’t as nervous after getting praised and happily smiled, “You saved me and Caesar’s entire team, the alliance might not give you too much of a reward, but I’ll remember and if you need any help in the future, then feel free to let me know.”

“Okay.” Lin Xiao nodded and accepted Claire’s thanks.

And so that topic ended and they returned to an awkward silence.

At that time, Lin Xiao finally carefully observed Claire’s outfit and was stunned.

No wonder she felt more womanly, she came prepared!

She put on makeup, wore earrings, and changed clothes… if Lin Xiao guessed right, she was also carrying a scented sachet with her because he smelled a faint fragrance since she entered the room.

Lin Xiao actually felt a faint throbbing being alone with her in a room, like he was on a date with an innocent college girl and her coy mannerisms were exceedingly cute.

Damn… it was the feeling of his heart palpitating!

Remembering Xiao Hua’s warning, Lin Xiao forcibly suppressed his heart and silently recited ‘She’s not a woman, just a flat-chested tomboy’ and was finally able to calm down.

“Cough… Claire, let’s get down to business.

You didn’t come all this way just to tell me that, right”

“Sigh, I can’t hide from you after all… Lin Xiao, you heard about the southern rebellion, right”

“Hm.” Lin Xiao nodded and had a bad feeling.

“Then you should know about the missing holy sword too, right”

“I heard the rebels have it.”

“That’s right, since you already know, then I’m just going to get to the point.”

Claire bit her lips and suddenly stood up, she slightly bent over and spoke sincerely.

“My father is seriously ill, Gotham Kingdom is in imminent danger.

I want to save my country but my power alone is limited and I need help… Lin Xiao, you have power and resourcefulness, and you already proved your outstanding capability with what happened, and I also trust your character! So…”

“Hey, hey! You can’t be…”

“So Lin Xiao, can you help me deal with the rebels”
