After marrying the fierce god, her handsome young husband was pampered to the extreme.

Lin Beizhen couldn't possibly understand the young man's implied meaning. He thought for a moment and said, "How do you suggest we fight?"

Bare-handed or armed?

Lin Beizhen learned boxing from Lan Shu, and also learned knife and spear techniques from his father. He was able to fight any challenge.

The young man smiled faintly, "Of course..."

Lin Beizhen listened attentively.

Unexpectedly, the other party remained silent for a long time, but instead swayed over and walked over, her slender hands touching Lin Beizhen's body.

Lin Beizhen finally realized what was happening, his handsome face expressionless. "Are you trying to seduce me?"

Upon hearing this, the young man paused in his actions, his face filled with disbelief.

Is this even a man?

How can you remain so calm even with a beautiful woman in your arms?

Lu Ruoxin thought that although he was not a beauty that could topple kingdoms, he was at least handsome and charming.

Doesn't this person feel anything at all?

Could it be that she looks down on the boys who throw themselves at her?

Thinking of this, Lu Ruo's expression became quite strange. On the one hand, she began to doubt her own charm, and on the other hand, she felt that the man in front of her was a rare gentleman.

"Yes, my lord, I'm just seducing you." Lu Ruo threw a flirtatious wink, unwilling to give up.

Lin Beizhen nodded lightly, "Oh, okay, can we start now?"

"What are you talking about?" Lu Ruo realized that this blockhead was still thinking about dueling with him.

He was utterly speechless, pointing to his face, "How could you bear to hit me, a perfectly handsome young man like me standing right in front of you?"

Lin Beizhen felt that this guy was really unreasonable. "You're the one who said you wanted to fight me."

Lu Ruo was speechless, so she simply spoke frankly, "The battle I'm talking about is a battle on the bed. Who wants to fight with a stinky man like you?"

Lin Beizhen was very puzzled. "On the tatami?"

"What? Is that not allowed?" Lu Ruo pulled the man's hand to her lower back. "My lord, I have quite a few skills. I guarantee I'll serve you comfortably."

Lin Beizhen was quite bewildered. They were just talking about a duel, so why were they suddenly talking about serving each other?

This young man speaks incoherently, making him truly difficult to understand.

"Serve me?" Lin Beizhen asked. "Why?"

Lu Ruo was starting to wonder if the man in front of her was pretending to be stupid.

He's been so obvious and blatant, how can a man not understand?

Lu Ruo took a deep breath and forced a smile. "Of course it's because you are so handsome and dashing, my lord. I was delighted with just one glance and couldn't wait to... share a romantic moment with you."

Lin Beizhen's mind, for once, suddenly cleared up. "You want to marry me?"

Only husband and wife share a bed. The meaning of this young man's words is quite clear: if he wants to sleep with him, isn't that the same as wanting to marry him?

Lu Ruo blinked her captivating phoenix eyes twice. He was clearly not used to a man's thought process and was momentarily stunned. "Huh?"

Lin Beizhen firmly refused, "I'm sorry, I can't marry you."

Lu Ruoxin thought: I never intended to marry you!

How does this person's brain work?!

Lu Ruo was starting to get a little frantic. Whose ethereal young master had come out to experience tribulation?

Then he thought, why can't I marry him? He's not that bad!

Moreover, his auspicious seal is so red, with a faint golden edge, that it is clear at a glance that he is very fertile.

He's always the one rejecting stinky men; it's not his place for stinky men to reject him!

So Lu Ruo changed her approach and started to act pitiful.

"My dear husband, why are you unwilling to marry me? Is it because I am not presentable enough?"

Lin Beizhen was very patient and had a good temper. Even when facing a group of bandits, he was able to deal with them politely.

"It's not your fault," Lin Beizhen said. "My family has already arranged a marriage for me, so I'm sorry, I can't marry you."

Lu Ruo was shocked. "You look to be in your mid-twenties, right? And you're still not married?"

Lin Beizhen was also surprised, "Don't you know? Then why do you want to marry me?"

Lu Ruo was originally trying to seduce the man, and now she didn't know how to respond.

Lin Beizhen asked, "Do you intend to become my concubine?"

"Is it not allowed?" Lu Ruo asked subconsciously. He was unsure of himself. With his charm, surely he could get a concubine's position?

To everyone's surprise, Lin Beizhen replied seriously, "No. The men in our family do not take concubines or have mistresses."

"Could this be a family rule only found in wealthy households?"

"I suppose so."

Lu Ruo actually began to envy the man's fiancé.

How wonderful, a lifetime of one love for one person.

Lu Ruo pulled away from the man, losing all interest in teasing him.

He had the utmost contempt for men who were devoted to their husbands but did not belong to them.

He said, "I'm determined to have the Qian family's goods. If you try to stop me today, you'll have no choice but to kill me."

Lin Beizhen had said that this young man's thoughts were hard to fathom.

The way this topic has jumped around is something no one can keep up with.

Judging from this guy's posture, he must have finally decided to start the duel.

Lin Beizhen drew his sword. "Then please enlighten me."

After exchanging a few blows, Lu Ruo retreated.

His lightness skill was superb; it was unclear what secret technique he had learned, but Lin Beizhen was unable to catch up with him.

However, there's no need to chase after him; his primary responsibility is to protect this shipment.

Lu Ruo ran for a while, but when she saw that the man hadn't chased after her, she stomped her foot angrily and turned back.

He stood on the opposite rooftop, glaring angrily at the man. "Didn't we agree to a duel? Why didn't you come after me?"

Lin Beizhen glanced at the bandits pretending to be unconscious in the courtyard.

Such a clumsy attempt to lure the tiger away from the mountain is really hard to fool.

"I concede," Lin Beizhen said. "Young Master's lightness skill is truly admirable."

Lu Ruo rubbed her earlobe, wondering if she had misheard.

"You're just giving up like that?"

Lin Beizhen nodded, "Yes, I admit defeat."

Lu Ruo looked on incredulously, "Your husband actually has a moment of admitting defeat?"

Lin Beizhen said, "If my skills are inferior, why won't I admit it?"

Lu Ruo was almost driven crazy by this stubborn and unreasonable man.

After much deliberation, he decided that he could not build something new without breaking down the old.

Anyway, he's definitely going to snatch this batch of goods from the Qian family.

He floated towards Lin Beizhen, his toes barely touching the ground, like a delicate flower.

Lin Beizhen held the knife horizontally, preventing him from getting close.

Lu Ru scoffed, putting on a show of bravado.

He bet the man wouldn't kill him.

So he took off his thin gauze outer garment and gently tossed it onto Lin Beizhen's knife.

Lin Beizhen slowly typed a question mark.

What is this young man planning to do now?

Lu Ruo was moving slowly and leisurely, but when she saw the man frowning and looking puzzled, she suddenly pressed herself against him.

Lin Beizhen instinctively wanted to throw him away, but found that the boy's pale arms were tightly wrapped around his neck.

Lin Beizhen: "..."

Wasn't his refusal clear enough?
