Lin Feng and Xia Zhiyue's dinner was extremely pleasant. After the meal, they walked through the snow and sent Xia Zhiyue back to her residence.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was the day that he had agreed to meet Xia Zhiyue. Due to the fact that the gathering was at night, Lin Feng rushed to the Great Xia Empire's Trading Company at around four in the afternoon. In fact, Lin Feng had always felt that the name of the Trading Company sounded a little strange, but when he was eating and chatting with Xia Zhiyue …
Xia Zhiyue had talked about it before.
It was said that the reason it was called the Trading Company was because the ancestor who founded it loved his wife very much. His wife's surname was "Di".
Xia and Di!
They were combined together!
That was the origin of the Trading Company of the Great Xia Empire, and it sounded like a beautiful love story.
After arriving at the Trading Company of the Great Xia Empire, Yue Xue took Lin Feng to the living room to wait for Xia Zhiyue, who was dressing up.
Women tended to be vain, which was inevitable. Not to mention Xia Zhiyue, any woman was actually like that.
In particular, when attending some more formal banquets, they would definitely have to dress up well. Lin Feng certainly understood that.
Of course, Lin Feng didn't wait for too long either.
A quarter of an hour passed.
Xia Zhiyue appeared.
Today, Xia Zhiyue was wearing a purple dress, which perfectly accentuated her tall and slender figure. Coupled with her exquisite and beautiful face, Xia Zhiyue was like a fairy that had fallen from the ninth heaven to the mortal world. Her beauty was enough to make people suffocate.
Even Lin Feng couldn't help but admire her.
He couldn't help but take a few more glances at her.
After sensing Lin Feng's gaze, Xia Zhiyue also felt a little smug and happy. A woman would dress up for her lover. Clearly, she had sensed the amazement in Lin Feng's eyes.
"My knight, tonight, you'll be my escort. If any disgusting bastards come to disturb me, I'll ask you to drive them away. After the banquet is over, I'll give you different rewards depending on the situation," said Lin Feng.
Xia Zhiyue said with a smile, looking as noble as a princess.
Lin Feng said, "Zhiyue, it seems that you want me to go to the banquet with you so that I can be your shield."
Xia Zhiyue said, "He's not a shield, he's a flower protector."
Lin Feng smiled as he said, "I'm very happy to be your escort, Zhiyue."
When Xia Zhiyue heard Lin Feng's words, she immediately became happy.
The two of them sat in a beast carriage.
They headed to the location of the banquet.
While on the road.
Xia Zhiyue focused on this matter with Lin Feng.
It turned out that.
The banquet was hosted by the city lord of Golem City.
The Stone Demon City was one of the seven ancient cities of the Great Wilderness. Therefore, every city lord was extraordinary. For example, the city lord of the Stone Demon City was a member of the Stone Demon Clan.
The Stone Devil Clan was originally one of the top clans in the vast wilderness. They had a long history and were very powerful. It was said that their ancestor was a Stone Devil.
Even if it had been passed down until now. Because Da Huang was sealed.
The Stone Demon Clan was still one of the top clans in the great wilderness.
The current city lord of the Stone Devil Clan was called Shi Potian.
He was very forthright.
This banquet was held because his son was about to be engaged to the daughter of another great clan.
Xia Zhiyue had a good relationship with the two newlyweds, so she specially came to attend their engagement ceremony.
An hour later, they arrived outside the city lord's residence. Outside the city lord's residence, there was an endless stream of people and carriages. In addition to the people attending the engagement ceremony of the city lord's son, there were also many people watching the fun.
The engagement of the city lord's son was a big deal.
Although people couldn't go in to take a look, it was good to watch the fun outside and see the big figures of the great clans. At least they could brag about it in the future.
There were also some business-minded people who set up stalls nearby. Business was quite good.
"Look, it's a beast carriage from the Great Xia Empire. I heard that the eldest daughter of the Xia Clan, Xia Zhiyue, came to Golem City a few days ago. I wonder if it's her?"
"Xia Zhiyue is good friends with Shi Hao and Zhou Chuchu. She should be here."
"I heard that Xia Zhiyue is as beautiful as a fairy. I've only heard about her in the past, but I've never seen her in person. I wonder if she's really that beautiful. Now, I can finally see her face."
After seeing the beast carriage of the Great Xia Empire's trading company, many people began to talk about it. Even many guests looked at the beast carriage of the Great Xia Empire's trading company.
At this moment …
Everyone saw it.
A young and handsome man alighted from the beast carriage. Many people couldn't help but be slightly stunned. 'Why is there a man alighting from the carriage?
It's really strange! '
However, next, everyone saw a fair hand reaching out and placing it in the palm of the young man. Then, a beautiful woman walked out.
She was beautiful.
She was breathtaking.
She was just like a holy and flawless fairy.
The two people who alighted were naturally Lin Feng and Xia Zhiyue.
Xia Zhiyue held onto Lin Feng's arm, and the two of them looked like a couple as they walked towards the city lord's residence.
Many people's jaws were about to drop in shock.
"Who's that kid? Xia Zhiyue is so intimate with him. Are they lovers? "
"I've never heard of Xia Zhiyue being taken."
"That kid looks very ordinary. He's not even as handsome as me. What right does he have to capture Miss Xia Zhiyue's heart?"
The cultivators discussed and looked at Lin Feng with envy and jealousy. They felt that Lin Feng was inferior to them, yet he could make Xia Zhiyue fall in love with him.
They were all extremely indignant.
Even many guests began to whisper about it. They knew how extraordinary Xia Zhiyue's identity was.
Not everyone could be worthy of Xia Zhiyue.
Hence …
Many people were guessing Lin Feng's identity, but they definitely knew nothing about Lin Feng's identity.
Lin Feng and Xia Zhiyue entered the City Lord's residence together, and a maidservant led Lin Feng and the others to the place where the banquet was being held.
After they arrived …
Many people immediately looked over.
Most of the cultivators who came from large forces knew Xia Zhiyue.
Hence, when they saw Xia Zhiyue entering with a young man's arm, they were extremely shocked.
"Zhiyue, you're here …"
At this time, a beautiful woman in a white dress and a handsome man in a dark blue robe walked over.
The one who spoke was the woman.
"Shi Hao, Chuchu, congratulations on your engagement today …"
Xia Zhiyue was very happy after seeing the two of them. It seemed that these two were today's male and female leads.
The man was handsome, and the woman was beautiful.
They were indeed a good match.
Looking at their happy faces …
It seemed that …
This was not an arranged marriage.
This was quite rare in large clans, because these large clans often used their children's marriages to earn more benefits.
Hence …
Arranged marriages had become a common thing in large clans.
Of course, nothing was absolute.
For example, Xia Zhiyue's two friends.
Shi Hao and Zhou Chuchu seemed to be free to fall in love.
However, Lin Feng thought about it again. Although they were free to fall in love and successfully got together, was it because the forces behind them were on par with each other?
If one of them was from an ordinary background, this engagement would not be so easy.
"Zhiyue, thank you for your blessings." Shi Hao and Zhou Chuchu said with a smile.
The two of them immediately looked at Lin Feng.
Zhou Chuchu said with a smile, "Zhiyue, you haven't introduced us to this handsome young man beside you."
Shi Hao and Zhou Chuchu looked at Lin Feng and Xia Zhiyue with a somewhat ambiguous gaze. Xia Zhiyue was a sensitive person. She could naturally feel the ambiguous look in her two good friends' eyes. Her pretty face blushed slightly.
In fact, Shi Hao and Zhou Chuchu were just suspicious before and tried to ask. Seeing Xia Zhiyue's pretty face blushing and shy appearance, the two of them couldn't help but feel slightly moved. Could it be that this young man was really Xia Zhiyue's lover?
They had never heard of him before.
Moreover, they had seen most of the children of the large clans.
But they had never seen Lin Feng.
Could it be that he was from a small clan?
Although Shi Hao and Zhou Chuchu weren't the kind of people who looked down on others, they clearly knew that there were many people pursuing Xia Zhiyue, including many children of large clans. It wasn't easy to catch up with Xia Zhiyue, and it was even more difficult to be together with her.
Large clans had their own rules of survival and also their own rules of conduct. There were many things that the younger generation couldn't decide on their own, such as their own marriage. Being born into a large clan was very enviable, but many times, it was incomparably helpless.
As a member of a large clan, Shi Hao and Zhou Chuchu were very clear about this matter. However, they were only Xia Zhiyue's friends. Seeing that Xia Zhiyue was so happy, they could only pray for her and hope that she and her lover would have a good ending. Apart from that, there was nothing they could do.
"This is Lin Feng … He's my … lover." Xia Zhiyue introduced. Obviously, she was a little embarrassed, so when she spoke, she paused a little.
Lin Feng didn't show any abnormalities. Although there was nothing between him and Xia Zhiyue, Lin Feng had already agreed to be Xia Zhiyue's protector. Naturally, he had to finish what he started. Xia Zhiyue's introduction of herself was understandable.
"Lin Feng, this is Shi Hao and Zhou Chuchu, the two I mentioned to you before."
Xia Zhiyue then introduced the new couple to Lin Feng.
"I often hear Zhiyue mention you. It's nice to meet you."
Lin Feng said with a smile.
"We're also very happy to meet Lin Gongzi." Shi Hao said with a smile.
"How did you meet?" Zhou Chuchu asked curiously.
Xia Zhiyue didn't know what to say.
Lin Feng said, "On a beautiful afternoon, I accidentally met Miss Xia Zhiyue. I was deeply attracted by her beauty, so I told myself that I must pursue Miss Xia Zhiyue. Thus, I began to act …"
Lin Feng weaved a very romantic love story.
For example, how to create an opportunity to meet Xia Zhiyue.
For example, how to continuously send her roses for a long time.
For example, how to take Xia Zhiyue to see the stars.
All kinds of romantic scenes made Zhou Chuchu incomparably envious.
Xia Zhiyue herself was a little dazed.
In Zhou Chuchu's opinion, although Lin Feng's background might be ordinary, at the very least, he was really attentive to Xia Zhiyue.
The two sides chatted for about an hour.
More and more guests arrived.
Shi Hao and Zhou Chuchu still had to greet the others, so they said goodbye and left.
After they left.
Xia Zhiyue snorted softly, looked at Lin Feng, and said with some jealousy, "Just now, you described our meeting, knowing each other, and falling in love so romantically. Don't tell me these things are things you do with other girls?"
Lin Feng said, "That's not true! It's all nonsense! "
"Really?" Xia Zhiyue looked at Lin Feng in disbelief.
Lin Feng nodded and said, "Of course it's true. I never lie."
Xia Zhiyue said, "But you just lied."
Lin Feng said, "What I mean is, I never lie to the person I like."
After saying this, Lin Feng immediately regretted it.
He didn't want to flirt with Xia Zhiyue!
Why did he suddenly say such words?
He was speechless.
Could it be that …
Words came from the heart.
Actually … Was this what he thought in his heart? Was that why he casually said it?
Thinking about it carefully …
There was really such a possibility.
Lin Feng admitted that he admired Xia Zhiyue very much.
However …
Lin Feng didn't want to provoke other women right now.
Therefore, even if he knew that Xia Zhiyue was interested in him, Lin Feng basically didn't say anything. However, sometimes people's feelings, emotions, and so on were not so easy to control. Sometimes, some of the feelings in one's heart would burst out naturally, catching people off guard. For example, the words that Lin Feng said just now, he didn't know why he said it.
At this moment, Xia Zhiyue …
Was looking at Lin Feng with a face of surprise.
Just now!
Did Lin Feng confess to her?
She was both happy and shy.
"Zhiyue, you're here too."
At this moment, a voice sounded.
Lin Feng looked over.
He saw a group of young people walking over. They were probably the children of aristocratic families. The person in the lead was a rather handsome young master.
Were they the annoying people that Xia Zhiyue mentioned?
The corner of Lin Feng's mouth suddenly revealed a faintly discernible smile.
Xia Zhiyue glanced at Lin Feng. After seeing the faintly discernible expression on the corner of Lin Feng's mouth, she immediately knew that Lin Feng had guessed everything. However, she didn't know what Lin Feng was thinking now.
Soon, these people came to Xia Zhiyue's side.
Many people greeted Xia Zhiyue.
Xia Zhiyue also responded politely to these people.
A child cultivated by a big family.
Politeness was necessary. Sometimes, this kind of politeness, although it seemed a bit hypocritical.
After the two sides greeted each other, a woman said, "I heard that you came here with a male companion, looking very intimate. Could it be this young master in front of us? Could it be that this young master is your lover? "
Hearing this woman's words.
Immediately, the faces of several young masters became somewhat ugly.
Their gazes towards Lin Feng were very unfriendly, especially the young master in the lead. His name was Wu Sen. He believed that among all of Xia Zhiyue's suitors, his chances were relatively high. Now that he heard that Xia Zhiyue was taken, it would be strange if he felt good. Of course, he was cultivated by a big family, so he wouldn't show it too obviously.
Xia Zhiyue said, "Yes, he's my lover. His name is Lin Feng."
The woman smiled and said, "He looks a bit unfamiliar. Could it be that he's from some unknown power?"
The woman who spoke was called Shangguan Shan. She was also from a big power, and she was a direct descendant. Originally, with her background and good looks and figure, she should be the target of countless people of the same age.
But there was nothing she could do.
In their generation, there was Xia Zhiyue.
Xia Zhiyue was too beautiful.
She overshadowed Shangguan Shan's brilliance.
Shangguan Shan had a crush on Wu Sen, who was also one of Xia Zhiyue's suitors.
Shangguan Shan had even confessed to Wu Sen.
However, Wu Sen had ignored her.
Shangguan Shan had blamed all of this on Xia Zhiyue.
So …
Once there was a chance …
She would properly make fun of Xia Zhiyue.
Like this …
It would make her feel very comfortable.
Hearing Shangguan Shan's words, Xia Zhiyue was a bit angry. She wanted to say something, but she was stopped by Lin Feng. Lin Feng gave Xia Zhiyue a look that said, "I'll take care of everything."
Lin Feng continued, "I just don't know what kind of family this young miss is talking about."
Shangguan Shan said, "Naturally, it's a family that we've never heard of."
Lin Feng smiled and said, "If that's the case, then my family might really be an unknown family."
Hearing Lin Feng say this, Shangguan Shan immediately revealed a look of ridicule.
Wu Sen raised his eyebrows slightly. He always felt that Lin Feng was not a simple person. He looked at Lin Feng and said, "Your origin doesn't seem to be what you said."
Lin Feng smiled and said, "There are some things that don't need to be explained, because for some people who are narrow-minded, it would be a waste of breath to explain."
Shangguan Shan's face darkened when she heard Lin Feng's words. Wasn't Lin Feng scolding her for being narrow-minded?
She said sarcastically, "How ridiculous. A guy from an unknown force is here to say that others are narrow-minded?"
Lin Feng looked at Shangguan Shan and said, "Then, as a person from a great power, do you know how the history of the era came about? Do you know about the mastermind's world? Do you know that it's already the end of the era and that the era is about to be destroyed? Do you know what heaven-defying races and powerhouses have appeared in this era? Do you know what the current cultivation system is? Do you know why the tokens related to Grand Desolation City that were in the hands of the various great powers two hundred years ago suddenly changed? Do you know what it means to say that there's always someone better than you? "
Shangguan Shan was speechless when she heard Lin Feng's series of rhetorical questions.
Even Wu Sen and the others were dumbfounded. Their environment had determined their knowledge and experience, so even they did not know what Lin Feng was talking about.
"Who is he?"
Everyone had the same question in their hearts. They felt that Lin Feng was shrouded in a mysterious aura.
