The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3495 Let Me Show You the Splendor of the World
"How touching."

After listening to Lin Chen's story, Duan Mulan's eyes were filled with envy and emotion.

"You met in the most ordinary human realm, supported each other all the way, crossed several realms, and remained steadfast through life and death. I envy your love so much."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "My wife and I were also engaged by our elders. We didn't know each other before, and at the beginning, we didn't have any feelings for each other and were quite wary of each other. It was only after we went through a lot that we gradually got to know each other and then developed feelings for each other."

Duan Mulan blinked: "Are you saying that even if my father doesn't have feelings for the husband he finds for me through a martial arts contest, feelings will develop later as long as we get to know each other?"

Lin Chen chuckled and said, "Yes and no, it depends on the person. Everyone is here for the Spirit of the Great Dao, but you're so beautiful, it's normal for your future husband to fall for you."

Duan Mulan continued Lin Chen's words with a wry smile, "Yes, it depends on the person. Some people may develop feelings for each other over time, but some people only have the Great Dao in their hearts and have no feelings at all. Even if they are with me, it may all be an act."

Lin Chen couldn't deny the truth of what Duan Mulan said, so he could only comfort her by saying, "I think all four candidates are geniuses, so they can't be bad."

"I know for sure they're not bad at all. On the contrary, they're all very outstanding. Compared to them, I'm just a roadside weed, an ugly duckling..."

Duan Mulan muttered something, but before Lin Chen could answer, she changed the subject: "You and Young Master Ning have traveled all the way west, you must have seen a lot of scenery. I envy you. Although you are controlled by others, you can still travel all over the world. I, on the other hand, have lived in this Astronomical Valley since I was a child. The two times I went out were to seek medical treatment. The outside world is so wonderful, but I have never been able to see it..."

Seeing Duanmulan's melancholy expression, Lin Chen suddenly smiled and said, "Now that you've left Tianwen Valley, it should take some time for your father to find you. Why don't you go to the city to take a look?"

Duan Mulan's eyes widened suddenly: "Go to the city? Us?"

Lin Chen nodded and smiled, "Take me with you, let's go for a walk. You are the young lady, and I am your alien bodyguard."

Duan Mulan understood perfectly well that Lin Chen felt sorry for her because she was so old and hadn't seen much of the outside world, so he decided to take her sightseeing.

"Is it really possible?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Sure, why not?"

Duan Mulan hesitated for a moment and said worriedly, "I'm just an ordinary person. Will I bring you danger?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Fighting is not allowed in the city. Even if someone has any ideas, they can only keep an eye on me. But once I leave the city, I can use Star Jump to escape instantly. No one can catch me, so there is no need to worry about safety at all."

Duan Mulan's eyes lit up: "Then I'll have to trouble you!"

Lin Chen stood up and said with a smile, "Then let's go."

Soon, Lin Chen and Duan Mulan appeared at the gate of a bustling city. Lin Chen paid the entrance fee and then followed Duan Mulan into the city.

Although Duan Mulan was an ordinary person, her identity was still that of a celestial being. Lin Chen followed beside Duan Mulan, looking every bit the bodyguard, but he didn't attract any attention.

Duan Mulan fought against illness all her life; she had never had such an easy journey.
Everything here was incredibly new to Duan Mulan; she had only heard of it, but had never seen it with her own eyes.

Her health was too poor. To the Celestial Clan, an ordinary person was like a fragile porcelain doll; if she went out and was careless, she might break.

In addition, she has been receiving treatment and taking various medications, and Duanmu Wen has been busy seeking medical help all over the world, all to help her live a better life. She has never had the opportunity to go out like a normal person.

Although her father was a saint, she did not enjoy the world that other normal children of the Celestial Race could enjoy. She could only stay at home and hear about everything outside from other people, like a caged canary.

"What is this?" "Ah, it's so beautiful!"

"Can this be eaten?"

At first, Duan Mulan was quite reserved, fearing that she would cause trouble for Lin Chen. However, she found that Lin Chen was not impatient at all. Instead, he took the initiative to explain things to her and find beautiful things for her. Gradually, she opened up and became lively and cheerful.

Lin Chen showed no impatience, leading Duan Mulan around to see all sorts of strange things.

One of them was like a caged bird, never having come out before, while the other was a newcomer to the Celestial Realm. Although he had read many books, there were still many things he didn't understand and had never seen before.

The two of them teamed up and saw a lot of strange things. They looked at each other, guessing and making a lot of jokes.

The two strolled around, eating and drinking, until it got dark.

Lin Chen found a hotel and settled the two of them in.

"Young Master Lin, thank you. Today is the happiest day of my life."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Get some rest. We still have time tomorrow. We can go to another city and continue our travels."

Duan Mulan pursed her lips slightly and asked softly, "You didn't have to do this at all..."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "I was born a mortal, just like you. I lived an ordinary life for more than 20 years before embarking on the path of cultivation. So I might be able to understand your feelings a little better."

"Since I'm free anyway, I'll show you around. Actually, I haven't been in the Celestial Realm for very long, and I'm quite curious about many things there. While I'm showing you around, I'm also looking around and broadening my horizons."

Duan Mulan looked directly at Lin Chen, then suddenly bowed deeply and said, "Thank you!"

Without waiting for Lin Chen's response, Duan Mulan quickly returned to her room.

Just as Duan Mulan was about to close the door, Lin Chen suddenly called out, "Wait."

Duan Mulan's face was flushed. As Lin Chen stepped into the room, her eyes suddenly became flustered, her eyelashes drooping as she looked at the ground in front of her: "Is there anything else?"

Lin Chen casually cast a spell, setting up a simple formation in the room.

"I'll set up an array for you to prevent outsiders from probing you with their spiritual sense. You're a girl, so it's best to be careful when you're out and about."

After a pause, Lin Chen added, "Just rest assured, this formation only blocks perception; it won't affect your entry or exit. I can sense the formation's fluctuations, but I also can't sense you inside it, so don't worry..."

Duan Mulan responded with an "oh," but her face grew even redder.

I suddenly felt really nervous just now, and it seems like I was thinking the wrong thing for a moment.

How could someone as good as Young Master Lin do something bad?

My own heart is beating so fast!
