Ryan's room.
Stephania sat by Raine's bedside, holding a bowl of white porridge in her hands, sipping it with a spoon.
Raine sat on the sofa next to her, watching the pale lips of the ice queen who had just woken up sip her white porridge.
Stephania finished her bowl of white porridge and licked the remaining grains of rice off her lips.
She placed the empty bowl on the bedside table, looked at the man sitting on the sofa, and asked:
"******. (Did you save me?)"
Renn frowned slightly; he hadn't understood what Stephania meant at all.
Just then, his beloved wife, the Book Spirit, transmitted knowledge about ancient scripts and their pronunciation to Rein, and Rein finally understood what Stephania had just said.
They then communicated with Stephania in the same ancient language.
Rein nodded and said, "Yes." He then took out the three magic rings that he had taken from Stephania's hand earlier.
Seeing this, Stephania got out of bed. She was still very weak and felt like she had used up all her strength just getting up.
She forced a gesture of respect to Raine, reminiscent of ancient aristocratic etiquette: "Thank you."
"May I ask what your name is?"
"Rayne Gray".
"So... Lord Renn, do you want me? Will you marry me?"
Renn was stunned by Stephania's words and didn't know how to respond.
What... does this mean?
love at first sight?
Love at first sight that transcends thousands of years?
That's unlikely, isn't it?
Renn frowned slightly and asked in confusion, "What do you mean by that?"
Stephania sat back on Ryan's bed and began to speak:
"I was sealed in the ice of Eternal Time for too long, and all my strength was completely lost. Although my talent is still there and I can repair it, I have no power to protect myself in the short term."
"I am confident in my beauty. With my beauty, without strength, I am doomed, so I need a powerful backer."
“My father said that in the future, the one who can save me from the eternal ice will be at least a demigod, or even a being beyond a demigod.”
"So you are my best choice."
"Moreover, I don't dislike you. I can tell that you are very young, even younger than I was before I was frozen. To be able to cultivate to this level of strength at this age shows how talented you are."
"By uniting with you, the bloodline named 'Griffin' can also be passed down."
"Oh, please rest assured, I am still innocent."
Hearing Stephania's extremely rational words, Ryan's lips twitched involuntarily.
He should just take it as a compliment.
"What do you think?" Stephania asked, her beautiful eyes fixed on Ryan.
After a moment of silence, Raine said, "I think... I have no reason to refuse."
Stephania's eyes showed neither joy nor sorrow, as if she were extremely confident in her beauty, and she had already known that Renn would answer in this way.
After receiving a positive answer from Ryan, Stephania visibly relaxed, momentarily dazed, and said:
“I’m sorry, Renn, my current situation is not suitable for me to fulfill the duties of a wife.” Stephania’s way of addressing Renn subtly changed.
Ryan looked at Stephania and shook his head: "Focus on recovering and don't think about those things."
"Although I, Renn, am a womanizer, I am not so womanizer that I would disregard the consequences."
