Xin Yue glanced at him indifferently: "There are actually many people who can be called strong, but," she pursed her lips, "Pirate pirates who plunder by force are definitely not within the scope of strong people."

"You..." Chu Zhiling's eyes became a little dark, and then more complicated emotions surged from the bottom of his heart, "Since you disdain to be with a pirate, why did you help me deal with the Dutch, even at such a high price ?”

Facing his questioning, Xin Yue fell into deep thought and didn't answer for a long time.

A smile suddenly flashed across Chu Zhiling's eyes. He stood up and wanted to pat her on the shoulder, but Xin Yue dodged and dodged. Seeing Chu Zhiling's obviously relaxed expression and eyes as gentle as the sea, Xin Yue A trace of doubt slipped through my heart.

Chu Zhiling wore a snow-white long gown today. He was tall and tall and had an extraordinary bearing. It was a little more refined, and he restrained his original arrogance and arrogance.

He looked at Xin Yue's dodging appearance, and the smile on the corner of his mouth deepened: "You really are a stubborn girl."

The height of nearly 1.9 meters made Chu Zhiling feel very oppressive, but when he raised his eyebrows and smiled, the dragon and the phoenix stood like a jade mountain in Tianzhu, standing majestic without being cramped.

Xin Yue was stunned by this smile, it had nothing to do with being seduced by beauty, but a vague curiosity and fear—why did Chu Zhiling suddenly smile so...with ulterior motives?

Thinking of some things, all the anger in his heart dissipated, and he said: "Forget it, I don't care about the past things with you. You, a daughter, sacrificed her life for me, so I understand your intentions."

Xin Yue was stunned: "What's your intention?"

Chu Zhiling held Xin Yue's hand involuntarily: "If you want to be a good husband and wife with me, you don't have to be so coy."

Xin Yue had an epiphany: "So you thought I helped you deal with the Dutchman because I liked you," she raised her eyebrows calmly, "So you think all my refusals are playing hard to get?"

Chu Zhiling nodded: "Although I'm not a gentle person, I still value friendship. I was rude to you before because I didn't treat you as my own. Now you have paid so much for me without hesitation. How can I ignore it?"

Xin Yue pulled out his hand and rubbed his brows, his expression was rare tiredness, and his heart was even more powerless to cry without tears.

Chu Zhiling said to her: "Do you know why my fleet can dominate the sea?" He replied, "Because there are many people on my boat, and they all listen to me."

After a pause, he said again: "You are also curious why the crew surrendered to me so much?"

Xin Yue nodded truthfully.

"Because I not only cherish talents, but also cherish love. Follow my brothers and you won't suffer."

Xin Yue looked at him and didn't speak.

"So even though I don't love you, if you marry me, I will definitely not let you be wronged. I had the idea of ​​marrying you when I applied the medicine to you a few days ago. You are all injured because of me, and , although I have now driven the Dutch army out of China, there is no guarantee that they will not secretly attack you with a grudge. You have helped me, and the thief emperor Zhu Yan will not let you last long. Without my protection, you go out There is only one dead end."

"Really?" Xin Yue smiled lightly, "You are so considerate of me, don't you remember that I deliberately framed you and provoked your relationship with the Dutch?"

Chu Zhiling said meaninglessly: "If I don't send you to the Dutch, will you use this trick to deal with me?"

He smiled brightly.

Xin Yue was dazed again for a moment, this man always thought that she almost gave up her life to drive away the Dutchman to help him, and the reason for this was funny - she liked him.

Not admitting it is because of shyness.

And because she likes him, he understands what she did in the past, and because of her outstanding naval military talent, he wants to keep her for his own use.

In order to fulfill her and keep her, so——

marry her.

Xin Yue seemed to think about it for a long time before softening his expression, his voice was crisp and tender at the age of fifteen or sixteen: "I am a decent girl, I want to be married by a bright matchmaker, and I want to carry a big sedan chair," she raised her chin with silk Looking at Chu Zhiling provocatively, "Can you do it, a big pirate?"

Chu Zhiling didn't give in, and smiled boldly: "Why is this difficult? Quanzhou is my territory. If you go there, you can carry ten large sedan chairs."

Chu Zhiling looked at her, Xin Yue also raised his eyebrows, time was silent.

Gradually, Xin Yue felt that something was wrong. Chu Zhiling's eyes were a little blurred, stained with a silky color, and he also stretched out his hand to hold Xin Yue's hand, smiled, and said in a warm voice: "In that case, ma'am, Let's just rest."

Xin Yue broke away from his hand, took a step back and said, "I told you that I am a decent girl, and everything follows the rules of my hometown. The bride and groom are not allowed to meet before they are married. Don't meet again."

She turned around and slammed the door shut.

Passing through the main deck connecting the bow and stern of the ship, Xin Yue walked towards her room. As soon as she left Chu Zhiling's room, six pirates followed her, watching her closely until she entered her room.

And there are people holding hands around her cabin, this situation is simply hard to fly.

She calmly took out the key and walked into the room.

The lights were like beans, and the candles were flickering. Xin Yue wiped the sharp saber he brought from Chu Zhiling's cargo hold, and there was no obvious expression of joy or anger on his face.The sea water was surging outside, and the blade in the girl's hand gleamed coldly.

"Knock knock."

There was a knock on the door, Xin Yue hid the knife, got up and opened the door, and there was Chu Zhiling standing outside the door.

Obviously, she didn't listen to her words that she would not meet again before getting married.

Xin Yue lazily said: "I'm going to sleep, what are you doing?"

Chu Zhiling strode forward and sat down on the chair: "My shoulders are a little sore, Madam rub it for me."

Xin Yue sat on the bed directly: "Bored." Her voice was a little tired, "I still want someone to rub it for me, you go back to sleep, I'm so sleepy."

She seemed to be drowsy, and her eyes were half closed: "Isn't it because you haven't married yet, so don't call me madam."

Maybe it was because she knew that Chu Zhiling would not kill her, so she relaxed her guard a little, so that when Chu Zhiling put his hand on her shoulder, she suddenly reacted, and she didn't show it very clearly to Chu Zhiling's touch. His disgust, but moved away calmly, his eyebrows furrowed slightly and then calmly stretched.

It's a dislike that's been disguised.Quiet but hidden in the bottom of my heart, as strong as rooted.

Chu Zhiling didn't notice Xin Yue's expression at all, thinking that she was avoiding because of shyness, a smile flashed across his bright black eyes, and he put his hand on Xin Yue's shoulder, rubbing it with just enough force.

Xin Yue's shoulders were very small and thin, Chu Zhiling rubbed them and said, "I need to eat more in the future, otherwise people will say that I have treated my wife badly."

There was a very comfortable feeling in his shoulders, and Xin Yue couldn't help but relax, but he was really not used to Chu Zhiling treating her like his wife.

However, under balance, Xin Yue still chose not to speak.
