The Villain Doesn’t Want To Get Entangled With the Beautiful Girl After Rebirth - Chapter 266



266. The Scent is Too Deliberate

Lin Nuo invited Li Ruo’er to sleep in his room tonight, and Li Ruo’er was very surprised.

After all, she had always asked her young master to take a nap together before, but every time she was rejected.

As for this time, it was the young master who requested it.

And it was at night, to sleep the whole night, which was much better than taking a nap.

In her excitement and joy, she had many doubts in her heart. Her young master’s attitude had changed too suddenly.

Li Ruo’er’s big ears slightly twitched, her bright eyes rolled around, and she curiously asked:

“Young master, what’s wrong with you~? Before, I asked you to take a nap together, but you always refused. What’s different this time?”

“I’ve been tired lately, my hands and feet are sore, and I need you to massage me at night. I might fall asleep directly, and you don’t need to go back, just stay here and sleep.”

Lin Nuo said seriously, and Li Ruo’er nodded repeatedly, believing it without a doubt.

She admired Lin Nuo, even treating his words as sacred, without any doubt.

Indeed, after establishing great merits in Zifeng Valley, the young master came over, wiped out a bandit nest, killed fierce beasts, and even found a lost kitten for an old lady. After arriving at the Lin family mansion, he had various social engagements, so it was natural for him to be tired.

Relaxing the young master when he was tired was the duty of a maid~

She was quite happy, after all, the young master thought of her when he was tired, letting her help him relax.

Hehe, young master, I won’t hold back tonight~

But she still had some concerns:

“Young master, you are the third young master of the Lin family, and I am just a maid. Sharing a bed with you, won’t it be inappropriate if this gets out?”

“If you don’t say anything, and I don’t say anything, who will know? Are you going to go out and announce it with a trumpet?”

Lin Nuo waved his chopsticks, as if he were going to tap Li Ruo’er on the head.

Li Ruo’er didn’t dodge and simply closed her eyes.

If you’re going to be beaten, you should stand properly and not dodge.

However, Lin Nuo was just putting on an act, he didn’t really hit her.

When he did hit her, it was usually just a tap on the top of her head, and not with much force. After all, he was still the young master and she was just a maid. Occasionally, some punishment was necessary.

If he really punished her, it would be quite severe, but Li Ruo’er was very obedient, though occasionally a little cheeky, at least she could always complete the tasks Lin Nuo gave her.

As for the daily chores, that’s one thing, but when it came to following his orders, she’d gather intelligence for him while they were at Purple Peak Valley, communicate with the celestial beasts, help him plot his schemes, and release the celestial beasts to tarnish the reputation of Purple Peak Valley.

The plan was good, except for one tiny mistake.

The celestial beasts didn’t descend the mountain, but he became a hero and was even revered by the immortals.

The blasted life in the immortal valley.

[Huh? Did the young master not hit me?]

After a moment, Li Ruo’er realized that Lin Nuo hadn’t tapped her with his chopsticks, and she slowly opened her eyes.

Lin Nuo picked up his chopsticks, grabbing some food and lowering his head to eat.

“Young master, aren’t you going to hit me?” Li Ruo’er scratched her head.

“Why would I hit you?”

“Because it looked like you were about to use your chopsticks to tap me.”

“Why would I go around tapping you with chopsticks if I have nothing else to do? I was just stretching my muscles.”

“Oh~”

Ah, it seems I was being overly suspicious. How could the young master possibly use chopsticks to hit me?

But, for the sake of Lin Nuo’s reputation, Li Ruo’er couldn’t help but ask a couple more questions:

“Young master, but if someone really saw us, wouldn’t it be bad for you?”

Lin Nuo stopped his chopsticks, looking at Li Ruo’er coldly:

“You don’t know what my position in the Lin family is? Do you think I care about my reputation? Besides, you’ve already embarked on the immortal path. Your official title may be maid, but in reality, you’re already a fairy. I’ll tell you, don’t use your past perspective to view yourself; you’ve already undergone a transformation.”

“Oh~ Right, right~”

Li Ruo’er nodded obediently, realizing that he was right.

She was already a little fairy now, her status was different, though she was still the young master’s maid.

But the young lady’s maid is anything but humble; the young master is a hero praised by the esteemed elders of the Xuanyun Sect and the immortals of Zifeng Valley. In fact, the maid has to push her way through the crowd just to be near him.

Thinking about it this way, her status is indeed quite high~

Li Ruo’er agreed. That night, she took a nice bath, scrubbed herself clean, and made sure to smell nice so that Lin Nuo wouldn’t be displeased.

As Lin Nuo had said, she was supposed to give him a massage to help him relax. She had already prepared the foot soak and even planned to offer him a full foot soak and massage service.

However, Lin Nuo said:

“Alright, go to sleep.”

“Ah, young master, weren’t you going to have me massage you to relax?”

“I’m tired. Just sleep. You sleep inside, and leave the water in the corner.”

“Oh, okay~”

The young master says what he wants, and if he doesn’t want the massage, then so be it. Time to sleep.

Li Ruo’er took off her little shoes and climbed into Lin Nuo’s bed, settling inside while the young master remained outside. It did make her feel a bit safer.

“You poured the whole garden into your bath, didn’t you? It smells so nice.”

Lin Nuo deliberately leaned in close to Li Ruo’er and sniffed. The scent was a bit overwhelming.

“Ah, I was worried my scent would be unpleasant to you, so I added some fragrant flowers to the bath.”

“You don’t need to. Your natural scent is just right; this is a bit too much.”

“Ah?! Young master, I…”

Li Ruo’er felt complicated emotions. Being praised for her natural fragrance was something to be happy about, but she had made a blunder. She deliberately added a scented bath, and now the young master was bothered by it.

Look at my head, what should I do now?

“Young master, young master, I’ll think of a way to get rid of the scent!”

“You don’t need to, just leave it as it is.”

Lin Nuo also lay down on the bed, casually pulling up the blanket.

His bed was suddenly filled with Li Ruo’er’s fragrance, which made him feel uncomfortable.

But it wasn’t a big problem. In fact, it was probably better this way. It would make it harder for him to fall asleep.

He guessed that something might happen later that night.

“Li Ruo’er.”

“Ruo’er is here, young master.”

“If I need anything in the middle of the night, I’ll call you. You need to wake up, don’t sleep in.”

“Okay, okay~ It’s Ruo’er’s duty to serve the young master~”

The little white fox, Li Ruo’er, squinted her eyes and snuggled into Lin Nuo’s chest. She could only sleep soundly this way.

The fluffy celestial fox really makes one feel reluctant to let go.

But now was not the time for Lin Nuo to pet the fox. He blew out the candlelight and went to sleep.

“Good night, young master~”

Li Ruo’er buried herself in Lin Nuo’s arms and quickly fell asleep.

……

On a dark and windy night, there were patrolling “servants” outside Lin Nuo’s room.

These “servants” looked at each other, as if making some kind of secret signal, and nodded.

One of the “servants” approached the window of Lin Nuo’s room and blew a misty fragrance through the gap.

This was a hypnotic gas, a type of sedative that, when inhaled excessively, would quickly put a person into a deep sleep, unable to wake up even if there was thunder outside.

After blowing for a long time, the “servants” hurriedly knocked on Lin Nuo’s room door.

No response, still asleep.

Then they exchanged glances again and unlocked Lin Nuo’s room.

Alright, it’s time to hide the stuff.
