"Isabella, I didn't expect you to find me even though I ran all the way here!" Lin Yu said with a wry smile.
He left the palace hoping for some peace and quiet, but he never expected to be found by this beautiful woman.
Today, Isabella wore a burgundy dress that was sheer, alluring, yet dignified.
A woman who is both sexy and elegant...
Lin Yu was rarely interested in foreign beauties; after all, people are of different races and have different aesthetic standards. He preferred more reserved, classically beautiful Chinese women. But Isabella was an exception; her charm always made people's hearts race and their minds wander.
"What, are you trying to avoid me?" Isabella glanced at him, a gentle breeze caressing her face, her wavy blonde hair swaying softly, creating a particularly beautiful scene.
Lin Yu smiled and shook his head, "I didn't mean to avoid you, it's just that there are just too many beautiful women in your country, and with such a stunning beauty like you, I'm afraid I won't be able to resist!"
"Why hold back?" Isabella turned around, smiling charmingly, and said, "We people from the Country of Struggle have always been quite direct. If we like someone, we'll be together. Relationships are actually very simple!"
This makes the message quite clear, and there's even a hint of provocation in his eyes.
Lin Yu quickly avoided her gaze, turned to look at the river, and said, "The most complex thing about humans is emotion. It's easy to be together, but it's not easy to maintain a marriage, and it's even more difficult to spend a lifetime together!"
He spoke from the heart; as a married man, his married life over the past few years has given him many insights.
Dating and marriage are two completely different things.
However, Isabella didn't quite understand. She stared at Lin Yu's face and said sincerely, "Lin Yu, I want to spend my whole life with you. Can you stay for me?"
Lin Yu was stunned and turned to look at him.
Her beautiful face was full of anticipation and radiated confidence.
In Isabella's view, Lin Yu had no reason to refuse her.
After all, she possessed beauty, power, status, and everything a man could want.
If the other party agrees to stay, everything in the entire Kingdom of Effort will be his.
Lin Yu shook his head. "Isabella, I think you've misunderstood. I've always considered you a friend..."
“Friendship can go even further!” Isabella blinked and said, “If you’re willing to stay, I’ll make you the king of the Kingdom of Endeavor, I can share everything in the Kingdom of Endeavor with you, and I can bear your children!”
Lin Yu's mind was a bit of a mess.
I never expected that I would be the object of a young widow's affections.
"What, you don't like me?"
Isabella frowned slightly. "Or are you saying you look down on me because I've been married before?"
Lin Yu shook his head. "It's not that I look down on you. You're a good woman and deserve to be cherished. It's just that I already have a wife! We're destined to only be friends!"
"Have you been married?"
Isabella was slightly surprised, then shook her head. "It doesn't matter. I've been married before, we're equals. As long as you're willing to stay, none of this will be a problem! Of course, if you occasionally want to go back to China, you can go back. I know your family is there. As long as you're my man, nothing else matters!"
Lin Yu was stunned.
Indeed, compared to other territories, China was considered conservative.
I never expected that women outside would accept men having families outside the marriage.
For most men, this situation would be incredibly satisfying!
But Lin Yu is no ordinary man.
Once you've made a promise to someone, it's for life; you'll never give up halfway.
Before leaving China, Lu Xueqing was clearly not in a good state. Although the other party said some hurtful things to her, he believed that it was not her intention.
Besides, with the end of the world just around the corner, he has no interest in romance.
All this journey has been for the sake of accumulating merit and achieving sainthood, attaining the Nine-Nine Body, and protecting the entire human race.
From any perspective, there's no way he could stay in the country and have a child with this woman.
"Isabella, I'm sorry to disappoint you. I have too many responsibilities to bear and have no right to talk about personal feelings. Besides, I will not betray my wife, so I have no choice but to refuse you!"
At that moment, all he could do was to give a clear no.
But this was unacceptable and incomprehensible to Isabella.
She had gone to such lengths, but the other party still refused.
As the Mother of Dragons, this sense of defeat made her feel extremely humiliated.
"Lin Yu, what if I said I wouldn't let you leave, that I would definitely keep you here? What would you do then?" Isabella's expression instantly turned serious, and her queenly aura once again enveloped her.
Lin Yu gave a wry smile, "Do you think you can stop me?"
"Give it a try!"
brush!
The Dragon Mother beckoned, and two giant dragons suddenly appeared above the river. On the opposite bank, countless heavily armored cavalry surrounded both banks.
Good grief, is it really necessary to take this so seriously?
Lin Yu was completely speechless.
He simply waved his hand slightly, and the two giant dragons in the sky instantly swooped down.
However, it did not attack. Instead, it landed on the railing like a pet and licked Lin Yu's body with its tongue, acting all cute and affectionate.
Isabella was taken aback.
"Erbao, Sanbao, you..."
“Actually, the Holy Spirits are the kindest. I saved their lives, so why would they attack me? I know you are too. You're just trying to scare me. Am I right?” Lin Yu said with a smile.
Isabella immediately wore a frustrated expression.
"I never expected you to be so insightful about human nature at such a young age. It seems I've truly lost this time!" Isabella said helplessly.
Lin Yu smiled slightly and comforted her, "There are plenty of good men in this world. You are a good girl and deserve better! Sooner or later, the right person will come to your side, protect you, and cherish you! He will guard you like an angel!"
“You are my angel!” Isabella pursed her red lips, her face full of resentment.
Lin Yu forced a bitter smile, "Don't judge a book by its cover, I'm actually a devil!"
Pfft!
Isabella couldn't help but laugh.
Helplessly, he said, "Alright, I can't keep you here. When do you plan to leave? I'll see you off!"
"Tomorrow! I don't have much time!" Lin Yu said.
"good!"
Isabella beckoned, and a maid came over and presented a crystal glass. Isabella took the glass, bent down, scooped up a cup of water from the river, and handed it to Lin Yu with both hands.
"This is the sacred river of our Kingdom of Effort. Drinking its water means you are a friend of our Kingdom of Effort forever. On behalf of the Kingdom of Effort, I wish you a safe journey!"
"Thanks!"
Lin Yu quickly took it with both hands and gestured to it.
Then drink it all in one gulp!
