She went to the wrong table on a blind date and ended up getting married to a billionaire CEO.
Chapter 436 Boundless Honeymoon
Meanwhile, on the other side of the world, in Indonesia, the Gili Islands are basking in the warm sunshine.
Xiao Mohan and Lin Manlin's journey has reached its final stop - Gilimeno Island, which locals call "Honeymoon Island".
This was the place Xiao Mohan insisted on visiting most during the entire trip.
Lin Manlin didn't have high expectations for this island; she just wanted to go with his wishes, since they had visited too many beautiful places on this trip.
When Lin Manlin arrived at the island by speedboat from the airport, she was already stunned by the unrealistically blue sea.
The seawater was so clear it was almost transparent, and you could clearly see the corals and tropical fish swimming on the seabed. The sunlight shone on the water, creating shimmering waves that sparkled like countless diamonds.
“We’ve arrived,” Xiao Mohan said softly, taking Lin Manlin’s hand as they stepped onto the dock. “This is Meno Island.”
The pier was small, simple, and rustic. Several locals greeted us with smiles, holding flower wreaths woven from fresh flowers.
“Welcome to Honeymoon Island,” a smiling receptionist said in English, placing a flower garland around the couple’s necks. “May your love be as eternal as the sunshine on this island.”
Lin Manlin lowered her head and sniffed the flower wreath; its faint fragrance was refreshing.
She looked up at Xiao Mohan and found him gazing at her with an unprecedented tenderness in his eyes.
A carriage decorated with flowers was already waiting on the shore, which surprised Lin Manlin.
“There are no motor vehicles here,” Xiao Mohan explained. “The only vehicles on the entire island are horse-drawn carriages and bicycles, so it’s exceptionally quiet.”
He helped Lin Manlin board the carriage, and the two sat in the carriage with soft cushions. The carriage moved slowly forward, passing through simple villages and dense coconut groves.
Lin Manlin leaned slightly against Xiao Mohan, enjoying the tranquility and leisure.
This was in stark contrast to the bustling cities they had visited before; there was no noise, no rush, only the company of sea breeze and sunshine.
“You’ll like it here,” Xiao Mohan said softly, gently brushing a strand of hair behind her ear with his fingers. “This might be the most wonderful stop on our trip.”
Lin Manlin nodded, her heart filled with anticipation.
Although I've been to many beautiful places before, each place offers different scenery and experiences, which is the charm of travel.
The carriage stopped in front of a beautiful resort.
Lin Manlin looked up and saw the sign of "Mahamaya Resort," a luxurious resort hidden in a coconut grove, gleaming in the sunlight.
Several neatly dressed staff members came forward, took their luggage, and respectfully guided them into the lobby.
Lin Manlin looked around and couldn't help but hold her breath.
The entire reception area features an open design with no walls to obstruct the flow of the sea breeze.
The exquisite wooden structure blends perfectly with modern decor, preserving local character while maintaining a modern sense of comfort.
“Welcome to Mahamaya,” the reception manager greeted us with a smile. “Your ocean-view villa is ready; please follow me.”
Lin Manlin looked at Xiao Mohan with a puzzled expression: "A sea-view villa? I remember you said you wanted to book a standard room."
Xiao Mohan revealed a rare, shy smile: "This is an exception. After all, this is Honeymoon Island."
Following the manager through the meticulously designed garden paths, Lin Manlin's heart was gradually filled with awe. In the garden, flowers were in full bloom, butterflies fluttered about, and birds occasionally flew overhead, chirping melodiously.
Finally, they arrived at a detached villa. The manager opened the door, and Lin Manlin almost gasped in surprise.
The villa's design is simple yet luxurious, with large floor-to-ceiling windows that allow sunlight to stream in freely while providing unobstructed sea views.
Through the window, you can see the azure sea and the white sand beach, like a huge painting hanging on the wall.
“This…it’s so beautiful,” Lin Manlin murmured, marveling at the sight before her. “Mo Han, this might be the most beautiful hotel room I’ve ever seen.”
A look of satisfaction appeared in Xiao Mohan's eyes: "I'm glad you like it."
After the manager gave them a brief introduction to the villa's facilities and surrounding environment, he politely withdrew, leaving the two of them alone.
Lin Manlin couldn't wait to explore this temporary home.
The villa has a spacious interior and elegant decor. A huge four-poster bed occupies the center of the bedroom, and soft curtains sway gently in the breeze.
The bathroom features a double Jacuzzi with direct sea views. The terrace, furnished with comfortable lounge chairs and a small table, is a perfect spot to watch the sunset.
What surprised Lin Manlin even more was that the villa had a private infinity pool, where the water blended perfectly with the distant sea, making her feel as if she were in an endless blue expanse.
“This place is incredible,” Lin Manlin exclaimed. “I’ve never lived in such a beautiful place before.”
Xiao Mohan walked behind her and gently placed his hands on her shoulders: "We've been married for so long, I should give you a little surprise."
Lin Manlin turned around and looked up at the man who rarely showed his emotions: "Is three months long enough for you?"
Xiao Mohan lowered his head slightly and placed a light kiss on her forehead: "For me, a lifetime has passed since the moment I met you."
This unexpected sweet talk made Lin Manlin's heart skip a beat. She tiptoed and gave him a sweet kiss in response.
The days that followed were as wonderful as a dream.
In the early morning, they are awakened by the gentle sunlight and the sound of the waves.
Enjoying breakfast on the villa's terrace, with fresh tropical fruits and freshly baked bread, accompanied by a full glass of freshly squeezed juice, is the perfect way to start the day.
In the morning, they usually stroll on the private beach, their toes sinking into the soft white sand, leaving a trail of footprints that are quickly wiped away by the waves.
Sometimes, Xiao Mohan would hold Lin Manlin's hand, and the two of them would step into the warm seawater together, swim in the shallows, or simply float quietly on the surface, gazing at the blue sky and enjoying this rare tranquility.
At noon, they would return to the villa and relax by the infinity pool.
Lin Manlin liked to lie on the lounge chair by the pool and read a light novel, while Xiao Mohan would sit next to her, dealing with some non-urgent emails, or simply quietly admiring her focused reading.
As evening falls, the most beautiful time of day arrives on the island.
As the sun sets, the sky is dyed a mixture of gold and orange-red, and the entire sea seems to be on fire, shimmering with dazzling light.
They would sit in a seaside restaurant, enjoying fresh seafood and local specialties, chatting quietly, and sharing their experiences and feelings from the day.
At night, countless stars hang in the deep blue sky, many times more than those visible in the city. A gentle sea breeze rustles the coconut trees, as if playing a lullaby of nature.
One evening, Xiao Mohan suggested going for a walk on the beach.
When they reached a secluded bay, Lin Manlin was surprised to find countless small candles arranged on the beach, forming a huge heart shape, with a carefully set dining table in the center.
"This is...?" Lin Manlin asked in surprise.
Xiao Mohan smiled and explained, "I had the hotel arrange a special dinner as a small celebration of our honeymoon."
That night, under the starry sky and candlelight, they enjoyed a romantic dinner and talked about their future plans and dreams.
Lin Manlin had never seen Xiao Mohan so relaxed and talkative. It was as if he had let down all his guard and was showing his truest self.
Time seems to slow down on this beautiful island. Every day is fulfilling, yet it feels like nothing is done, just simply breathing, feeling, and existing.
There is no work pressure, no social fatigue, no city noise, only each other's company and the embrace of nature.
Everything was so beautiful, so beautiful that it didn't seem like real life, but rather like a beautiful dream I didn't want to wake up from.
As Lin Manlin lay in Xiao Mohan's arms that night, her head resting on his chest, listening to his steady heartbeat, she murmured, "I feel like I'm dreaming."
Xiao Mohan held her tightly in his arms and whispered in her ear, "Does it feel real now?"
