Liumu, who has lived for thousands of years, never thought that he would be so difficult that he would be speechless by such a question, and he never thought that he would be forced to marry by humans.

However, the above are secondary, and what matters is how he should reply to Chen Junyan. Although his relationship with Chen Junyan is better than that of ordinary people, he really has no experience in such things as men marrying women, and he doesn't quite understand why human beings want men and women to live together.

Liumu showed a stiff smile while panicking: "Jun Yan, why do you want to marry me?" ”

Although her face has always been calm, Chen Junyan, who was nervous in her heart, seemed to see a glimmer of hope when she heard this, she restrained her nervous and complicated feelings, and replied very solemnly: "Because I like you, you may not believe it, but feelings are a very wonderful thing, aren't they?" At first, I didn't understand what kind of existence it was, but sometimes I inexplicably look forward to your appearance, hoping that you could be by my side, and accidentally seeing the peach blossoms gradually withering on the wall or branches can always inadvertently recall the first time I saw you, so I think I should like you. What about you? Liumu, have you ever been tempted by me? ”

A strange feeling of irritability suddenly rose in Liume's heart, which made him feel very bad. Chen Jun's sincere words were like a thunderbolt in his heart, and he really didn't know anything about this thing he liked. After thinking about it, he smiled and said, "Jun Yan, I think you may have misunderstood, what you just said is not because you like me, but because of dependence." You have no biological parents, your father's concubine treats you badly, and you only live in the backyard for many years, so when there is someone who can make you happy and be good to you, you will become dependent on that person. Even if the person who appeared next to you at that time was not me, but someone else, you would still be like that. ”

Chen Junyan shook her head, her heart was a little sad, she didn't expect Liumu to think like this about her feelings for him. She wanted to refute, but she didn't know where to start, so she forced a smile on her face: "But the person who appeared next to me at that time was none other than you." ”

I don't know how wonderful the relationship is, but I know that this thing is really harmful. Far away such as Mingyue, in order to be by Yu Wenyao's side, she would rather only live for a few dozen years than live for the years of immortality, such as endless, what a proud identity the dragon girl of the Bihai Dragon Clan, but because Shen Xingzhi tried to be an ordinary woman who respects her elders and respects her husband, she finally became a monster that everyone shouts at. From the description of Liumu, we can imagine how free and easy Chen Junyan is when she has not yet fallen into feelings, but now she has become timid and frightened because of the word emotion.

At that time, Liumu hadn't realized what kind of torment Chen Junyan was feeling when she said those words, and he didn't know that it was her dying struggle, so he just quickly suppressed the weird feeling in his heart and refused in an unwavering tone: "Junyan, I have lived for many, many years, and I will continue to live for a long, long time in the future, and your life is too short, just a few dreams for me, so it is better for us to maintain this relationship now." If you want to get married, you can tell me, and I will help you find a good-looking man who has no shortage of money in the family and is considerate, which is what you should live in life. ”

Chen Junyan thought that she could endure it, and she was ready to be rejected before making this decision. At that time, she thought that she could even smile and say to Liumu that she was rejected, giving up on me is your loss, I will find a man who is better than you, and you don't regret it when the time comes. But at this time, her tears had overflowed out of her eyes, irretrievable, she wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, bit her lip and smiled: "If you don't want to marry me, forget it, why make up such outrageous lies to deceive me, is it fun to say that you are an old monster who has not died for thousands of years in the book?" ”

Now that he has reached this point, Liumu feels that it is better to cut off Chen Junyan's hope of luck once and for all. He sighed helplessly, and said in a rare serious tone: "I didn't lie to you, I have indeed lived for thousands of years. You look back at the towering tree behind you, that's my being. Jun Yan, I am a dryad, not a human. ”

Chen Junyan was supposed to be very scared to make sense, but there was only a surprised expression on her face. After a long time, she asked in a low voice, "Is what you just said true?" ”

Liumu nodded.

Chen Junyan smiled lonely, recalled the bits and pieces between her and him, and asked with some trembling: "Because you are the sacred tree in the mouth of the townspeople, after my father died, you specially came to my house to ask me to come to you to make a wish, wanting to help me win the Chen family's house." ”

Liumu continued to nod.

Chen Junyan's heart cooled little by little, she wanted to laugh, but tears fell down: "Am I so pitiful, I can't even stand you, a monster who has lived for thousands of years, and I personally came to persuade me to make a wish." ”

Liumu shook his head, trying to explain something.

Chen Junyan said with a smile: "It turns out that the words are written incorrectly, and the monster actually has a compassionate heart." But your compassion seems to have been given to the wrong person, and I don't feel sorry at all, I was very happy when my mother was alive before. After my mother died, I was still happy in a place where no one had ever set foot in my place. Although my father is patriarchal and has many concubines, I have never been eaten or clothed less, and I have grown up freely. After my father's death, his concubines competed for the family property, and I could still live as before living in the backyard and being forgotten. What is there to pity me like this, why do you need to go to such trouble to help me? ”

Liumu didn't dare to speak, he didn't want to lie and deceive her, he didn't think about helping her at that time, he just thought that since there were so many people fighting for the Chen family's house, and the woman in front of him was considered to be acquainted with him, he planned to let her take advantage of it. As for the after-the-fact reward, he won't take less just because he knows him.

The silence of Liumu made Chen Junyan even more uncomfortable, she sneered at the man in front of her who didn't say a word, and felt that it was really ridiculous for her to put her true heart on a monster. He walked down the mountain, wanting to get as far away from this cliff as possible, and wanted to return to the backyard of the Chen family where he lived as soon as possible.

Liumu looked at the back of the woman stumbling away, and his heart seemed hollow. What it was like, he couldn't describe.
