She stared at Fu Linzhou's overly handsome face and said unwillingly, "But you don't look much older than me."

Fu Linzhou glanced at her amusedly, as if he were looking at a naughty yet cute child: "Have you forgotten? I am the leader of the Wanjie Group, not an ordinary person. I may live longer than your family tree."

Lu Zhi responded, and when she met his smiling and unusually peaceful eyes, the tension in her heart eased a little.

He seems to be really good-tempered...

Could she be more unscrupulous?

Lu Zhi mustered up the courage to ask again, "Then what did you mean when you said on Mid-Autumn Festival that I was your destined one?"

Fu Linzhou: "It means exactly what it says."

Perhaps it was the fact that she was sitting while Fu Linzhou was squatting that gave her some courage back, or perhaps it was the way he gently and intimately held her feet and rubbed the medicinal wine on her that made her feel cherished, giving her infinite courage.

She finally couldn't help but ask the question that had been bothering her for a long time: "What I mean is, are we a couple? Will we get married in the future? Will we fall in love?"

Fu Linzhou was slightly startled, then he looked at her with a smile: "Of course that's not what I meant."

Lu Zhi only felt an indescribable regret.

Perhaps all girls have had similar dreams when they were young, that a prince charming or a supreme treasure would appear and save them from the quagmire of life.

Fu Linzhou lent a hand and supported her time and time again, even saying things like "the destined one" and "a pair of bracelets", as well as the Wanjie red envelope group that only the two of them knew about...

All these things made Lu Zhi unable to help but misunderstand.

I thought there would be some ambiguous development between the two of them.

But she hated wishful thinking, so today she finally plucked up the courage to ask.

Hearing Fu Linzhou's denial, she felt a little embarrassed and awkward, but she was also extremely glad that she asked.

With a broken jar, she looked at Fu Linzhou calmly: "What does that mean?"

"In the eyes of ordinary people like us, the destined person always carries an ambiguous meaning."

Fu Linzhou was very sensitive to her emotions, and in an instant, he understood what she was thinking.

He was silent for a moment, then said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I made you misunderstand."

"Give me your hand."

Lu Zhi looked at his open palm.

There were clear lines on it, and the knuckles were long and slender, much wider than her palm.

"What...what are you doing?" Lu Zhi felt a little uncomfortable.

Seeing that she was getting nervous again, Fu Linzhou reached out and held her hand.

His right hand held her left hand, and their bracelets flickered, one bright and one dim, flashing with deep sea blue light.

Lu Zhi was stunned. Before she could react, she saw a flash of white light in front of her eyes and she subconsciously closed her eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, he was in a deep blue sea.

Next to him is Fu Linzhou.

There are suspended and twinkling stars all around.

She felt like a duckweed floating in the water, relying entirely on her clasped hand with Fu Linzhou to maintain her balance.

"Where is this?" she asked curiously.

It feels like I have entered an underwater world.

Fu Linzhou: "This is the center where the torrents of time and space converge. All dimensions of time and space converge here."

"And I am the guardian of this watershed."

Lu Zhi widened his eyes and looked at him in disbelief.

Fu Linzhou raised her hand slightly, and tiny bubbles passed in front of her.

Lu Zhi saw the small world inside.

There is a beast world full of beastmen.

There is an apocalypse with a zombie outbreak.

There are ancient streets with crowds of people.

There is also a world of immortal cultivation where people fly with swords.

Lu Zhi subconsciously widened his eyes, suspecting that he was dreaming.

Fu Linzhou smiled and said, "Didn't you ask me what the destined person meant?"

Lu Zhi nodded.

Fu Linzhou explained gently: "Strictly speaking, the destined person is my heir."

"I will guide you in your training, protect your healthy growth, and allow you to gain strength and abilities until one day you are able to take over my job."

Lu Zhi was dumbfounded: "So, I can become a god too?"

Fu Linzhou nodded.

Lu Zhi blinked slowly: "But..."

Becoming a god is such a big concept.

She just wanted to live her life again to take revenge, take back everything that belonged to her mother, everything that belonged to her, and kill all the scumbags and bitches who bullied her in her previous life.

Fu Linzhou: "When I talked to you last time, I noticed your emotions, so I didn't explain it to you in detail."

Lu Zhi: "What if I don't want to be your heir?"

She thought for a moment and then tried to make excuses: "What I mean is, I just want to be an ordinary person. Isn't this world of mine a domineering CEO novel? I just want to live within this framework and don't want to jump out of it."

Fu Linzhou: "The moment you put on the bracelet, I'm sorry, it was too late."

Lu Zhi: “…”

She was still a little confused: "So what kind of relationship are we in? If we explain it in terms of relationships in the human world."

Fu Linzhou thought for a moment and said, "For example, a wealthy man made a will and left his estate to a trust institution, designating a stranger as his heir. The relationship between the wealthy man and the stranger is like the relationship between you and me."

Lu Zhi sighed softly: "Okay."

She felt a little sad. She didn't have the handsome guy to date, and she was trying to become a god.

She took a deep breath and said, "I'm ready. Tell me anything else. Do you want to retreat and cultivate, or do you want to purify your mind and let go of hatred?"

She couldn't do it anyway.

Fu Linzhou looked at her amusedly: "What are you talking about?"

Lu Zhi: "Aren't you going to cultivate to become a god and inherit your legacy?"

Fu Linzhou: "You don't have to do anything deliberately. Besides living your normal life, just set aside some time every day to practice breathing exercises."

Lu Zhi blinked: "That's it?"

Fu Linzhou thought for a moment and added, "If you like the props in the red envelope group, you can take them and play with them."

Lu Zhi: “…Oh.”

She was a little puzzled: "Then why didn't you tell me clearly at once last time."

Fu Linzhou didn't explain this time. He just rubbed her head and took her out.

He didn't explain it clearly before because he felt it was unnecessary. Just let it go and you will understand it slowly.

Today he discovered that Lu Zhi had misunderstood their relationship. He didn't want to make the girl sad, so he brought her here to explain things.

But little girls are always thin-skinned.

As a man, it would be inappropriate for him to say something like "I'm afraid you'll misunderstand me, I'm afraid you don't like me, so I'm here to explain it to you."

At least at this moment, he looked at her like a slender and fragile little seedling, like a little creature that had just sprouted out of the soil.

Their fates were tied together; if she was hurt, his body would suffer the same damage.

But she has the aura of a charmer, which makes her the most likely to attract people's attention.

He could only be a little more careful and protect the little sprout under his body so that it could grow more easily.

If you want to talk to her about relationships between men and women, she is a little too immature.

Fu Linzhou thought so.
