Chapter 55: Oh

People just need to be stubborn.

Even when pressed against a wall and questioned about why he was following him, Lin Lin could calmly tell the other person.

"I came out of the bedroom because it was raining outside, and I wasn’t sure if I needed to close the window."

Bulwo raised an eyebrow slightly, asking her to go on.

Lin Lin then spoke calmly, "Later, I saw you coming back from the rain, and I wanted to see if you needed help, so I followed you."

It wasn’t a perfect circle, but it was round.

Lin Lin heard a deep laugh.

Lin Lin thought he laughed a little too much, and from his laughter, she sensed a hint of ease, as if he was enjoying how well she could make up stories.

Lin Lin felt a bit unhappy.

Even though she showed her unhappiness on her face, Bulwo did not react at all.

However, at Demon King Castle, people always cared and asked about such visible unhappiness on Lin Lin’s face.

"I haven’t seen such a poorly made lie in many years." Bulwo continued to smile.

Very well, Lin Lin’s face looked even worse.

"That is clearly because your friends are just better liars," Lin Lin couldn’t help but jab at him.

As if she didn’t understand Lin Lin’s sarcasm, the head maid even pretended to think for a moment before agreeing with Lin Lin’s harsh words about his friends, "That is true."

If he had any friends.

Bulwo still did not let go of Lin Lin.

Lin Lin tried to kick him with her foot, but he held her legs down with his knee.

Bulwo was a nimble head maid, and Lin Lin began to wonder if he was a killer specially trained by the City Lord.

Soon, Lin Lin dismissed that thought because she heard footsteps.

Compared to her lightness and Bulwo’s silence, the clear footsteps, still audible in the sound of the rain, revealed the steadiness of an adult man.

It is the City Lord.

The City Lord walked out of the study and headed towards the bedroom.

Bulwo covered Lin Lin’s mouth, quietly bringing her closer to the nearest bedroom. Then, he gently opened the bedroom door and pushed Lin Lin inside.

Every corner of this magnificent mansion is regularly cleaned by maids.

Although it is a room on the second floor reserved for guests and is not often used, it is still clean and tidy, with a faint scent wafting from the soft bed.

Once inside the bedroom, Lin Lin sighed in relief as Bulwo entered behind her.

He was now completely awake, and while his eyes still shimmered a bit, he appeared more stable than before, no longer looking like a ticking time bomb.

"I almost got caught," Bulwo made an exaggerated expression.

"Why are you afraid of being discovered by the City Lord?" Lin Lin looked at him strangely.

Bulwo sat on the bed without any hesitation, loosening two buttons to cool down, "What about you? Aren’t you relieved too?"

Lin Lin was silent.

Bulwo burst into laughter, "Because I am afraid the City Lord might find me suspicious."

Lin Lin, "?"

Lin Lin began to feel that Bulwo knew a lot, but he just wanted to ask to see her embarrassment.

The grown man winked at her, hinting, "The second rule of the City Lord is not to follow the head maid up to the rooftop. If he follows me upstairs because he suspects me, that would be terrible."

Lin Lin’s brain took a moment to react, finally realizing why this head maid lived so freely and uncontrollably in this world full of NPCs.

At the beginning, he had been the one guiding the three of them, directing them around in circles!

"You are the one who entered this fantasy!"

He is the same as them.

Bulwo did not deny it; he seemed happier, "Oh my, I thought I was performing seriously, did none of you notice?"

Yes, no one did. Lin Lin’s face darkened.

Because this maid was so strange, everyone was drawn to his unusual appearance and overlooked other things.

"Alright, little friend," Bulwo said, noticing Lin Lin’s expression, reaching out his hand while sitting on the bed, "Come here to your brother, um… or maybe uncle?"

"No, calling you uncle is too strange, it makes me feel like a creepy uncle."

Lin Lin thought, thank you for having self-awareness.

"What do you usually call Safir?" Bulwo asked, "I may not live as long as that gem dragon, but I can barely be from the same era?"

Is it the Jurassic period?

Lin Lin looked at Bulwo, watching him in his still lazy state.

Even if he did not obey him at that moment, he had other ways to achieve his goals. Lin Lin quickly realized this guy’s nasty nature.

Moreover, Lin Lin had to admit that after he mentioned Safir, she began to lower her guard around Bulwo.

He is also from Demon King Castle? And he has a good relationship with Safir?

Lin Lin approached the bedside; this bedroom had no chairs as it was only meant for resting.

Bulwo invited her to sit beside him.

Noticing Lin Lin’s curiosity about him, Bulwo had no plans to hide, "I used to be an officer in Demon King Castle; of course, the Demon King back then wasn’t this little guy we see now."

Lin Lin carefully chose her words, "Is he… his father?"

Lin Lin remembered Safir and the Demon King discussing his father this way; the Demon King even had a special study set aside for his own father.

Thanks to that study, the Demon King summoned her to this world while trying out spells.

After Lin Lin said that word, the corners of Bulwo’s lips lifted slightly. He did not explain further about the "father" that Lin Lin mentioned, and the topic ended there.

Like Safir, they did not dig deeper once the topic of that "father" came up.

Although Bulwo seemed more lively, Lin Lin still caught a hint of a look similar to Safir’s in his subtle expressions.

If the word is used positively, it means "confidence"; if used negatively, it means "arrogance."

It was just that the Dragon race showed it outwardly, while the lively Bulwo held back a little.

"Why don’t we talk about something interesting?" Bulwo treated Lin Lin like a little child, making his tone a bit cuter. "Do you want to know which year Safir was dragged into the swamp by the black dragon and got covered in smelly mud? I even made a monument for him and placed it in front of his nest, and then Safir broke the monument right in front of me."

"Tsk, what a tasteless old stick!"

You should think about your own problems quickly! Please!

"No, I don’t want to know," Lin Lin answered quite firmly, "If Safir finds out you talked to me about this, he will kill you, then kill me."

"You are quite cautious, little one," Bulwo said with a disappointed look.

"So do you want to know which one of Arthur and Allen always wets the bed?" Bulwo asked with a smile.

Ah… this question made Lin Lin think seriously.

It was clear that someone like Allen, who couldn’t control himself, seemed more likely to wet the bed, but since the other person had asked this question, the answer might not be simple. Could it be Arthur?

But Arthur is the type who would sneakily wash the sheets at night even if he wet the bed, right? For some reason, I feel like he has a heavier image to carry.

Lin Lin’s brain began to work at high speed.

Seeing the confusion on Lin Lin’s face, Bulwo smiled.

He had already unfastened the top button of the maid’s dress, revealing white skin beneath the black clothing.

The once well-fitting clothes got stuck on his broad chest when he pulled them down casually.

Lin Lin vaguely realized that Bulwo had a quite strong build, with a chest that was even bigger than hers.

Lin Lin’s gaze quickly moved away after glancing at the tight clothing stretching across his chest.

The bedroom was dimly lit, with only faint moonlight streaming in through the glass.

Bulwo began that unclear low chuckle again.

He genuinely enjoyed watching others feel awkward and uncomfortable, a twisted interest that became even more appealing when the other person hesitated, mirroring Arthur in a subtle way.

"Don’t worry," Bulwo said softly, leaning close to Lin Lin, "it’s just useless news; it won’t ask anything of you."

"Bite me," said Bulwo, "whether it’s about that little matter with the twins or the secret of the Dragon race, I will tell you."

Lin Lin’s eyelashes fluttered.

Compared to the feeling that this person was also someone who liked to be hurt, and that all the strange people came together in Demon King Castle, Lin Lin had something else she wanted to know more.

And it only required a small cost.

"The Demon King’s father…" Lin Lin looked at Bulwo, unsure if his smiling, looking down at her was sincere, "I want to know information about him."

After all, it was this man who wrote the spell that could summon humans from another world.

"Oh?" Bulwo raised an eyebrow and reached out to touch Lin Lin.

His uniform collar was wide open, but the black gloves on his hands seemed like a second skin that he did not remove.

His knuckles brushed against the corner of Lin Lin’s lips, slightly lifting, revealing his white and slightly sharp teeth.

For humans, sharp teeth help them tear cooked meat, but they still cannot compare to the teeth of carnivorous animals.

Round and cute, but a little dangerous.

"Sure…" Bulwo leaned close to Lin Lin’s ear, his breath warm with a hint of wine, "because you have such nice teeth."

It’s really hard to understand these guys’ habits.

Lin Lin still hesitated, but the man before her began speaking in a tone like a street vendor bargaining.

Bulwo’s knuckle stayed gently against the corner of Lin Lin’s lips as he stretched his voice, sounding lazy yet playful, "Boss, I can’t give you any more discounts. This price is really cheap; you won’t find it anywhere else."

Lin Lin started to think that this unreliable guy must be the kind of person whose lies she couldn’t see through, and she felt a little withdrawn.

The fingers that had been teasing her cheek pressed down slightly, and Lin Lin was unable to pull away.

Bulwo’s relaxed voice began again, mixed with laughter, as his chest rose and fell; her lips were pressed against the young man’s pale collarbone.

"Boss, please do me a favor."

The sound of the door being kicked open suddenly.

Lin Lin wanted to turn her head, but she was completely embraced by the person in front of her. One hand was tightly gripping her waist, not allowing her to back away.

"Oh, my dear brother!"

Lin Lin heard the young man’s warm voice as he held her, "Your little fish is too enthusiastic for me!"

Lin Lin:…

Lin Lin suddenly realized why Bulwo wanted her to bite him on his open collar.

Is it just to act crazy in front of Arthur?

Is it just to feel jealous over a plate of dumplings?
