"Elder Melia, I have to admit that what I said just now was a bit hypocritical, it is true that I have an extraordinary affection for Roland, but this is far from the level of love, not to mention that there is a huge age gap between me and him, and the circle of contacts is not the same, everyone thinks that I am his elder, including Roland himself, if there is a relationship between us that goes beyond friendship, I will be ashamed, this is too immoral!"

"Valyusha, it is a natural law for men and women to love each other and reproduce, and you and Roland are not close relatives, what is 'immoral' about loving each other? If you feel that you are too old, it is because you have lived in human society for too long, and you are used to looking at birth, old age, sickness and death from the perspective of human beings, in fact, according to the lifespan of our dragons, your current age is equivalent to a human girl in her early twenties, where is it old? As long as the mentality is young, age is not an obstacle to love at all. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Elder Yinlong spoke softly, using his own personal experience to persuade Valentina to let go of her heart and face her true emotions frankly.

Valentina had to admit that her words were very convincing, because this was the experience summed up by Elder Yinlong's own emotional experience throughout his life.

As an ancient dragon who had lived for nine centuries, Elder Melia had more than a dozen human lovers in her long life, and hundreds of descendants of human blood had lived together in harmony on Silver Dragon Island.

Elder Melia enjoys having a full house of children and grandchildren. Not only does she like to live with humans, but the nature of the silver dragon race is like this, and it is common for them to often take on the form of humans and interact with humans, and form a family to have children and live a life.

The young female Silver Dragon has a rare fertility among dragons, and can constantly bear children for her human husband, because there are so many such hybrids that a separate people called the "Silver Tribe" have evolved. In all planes of the multiverse, where there is a silver dragon, there are often silver people living together.

In terms of intimate association with humans, the only thing that can be compared to the silver dragon is probably the "Song Dragon" of Toreel, which is more bizarre than the silver dragon, both male and female, who love to turn into beautiful women and seduce men into their arms, and spend most of their lives as human women, bearing children for their lovers - or simply to enjoy the pleasure of prostituting men. If the poor husband learns that his wife is actually a dragon, a male dragon, he will probably have a nervous breakdown on the spot.

Silver Dragons also often hide their true identities from their human friends, but at least they don't cheat about their gender and deceive their lovers.

"Valyusha, when it comes to men, you definitely don't know as much as I do, frankly speaking, whether it's a human or a dragon, excellent males are rare, and men who are excellent and know how to be considerate of women are even more difficult to find, it's rare to meet one, you have to grasp it well, otherwise when you wake up, the other party is already dying of old age and youth, alas, how sad it is!" Elder Silver Dragon sighed faintly.

The lovers who once accompanied her for a good time have now turned into loess. When she was younger, she would be depressed for years after losing a human companion, and then she would be able to pick herself up. But at this age, she can no longer bear the blow of losing her love, and she is not as full of expectations for the future as she was when she was young, and she misses the green years of the past more.

Because of the long difference in lifespan, although the silver dragon likes to live with human lovers, it rarely marries officially. The youth of human beings is only a few decades, this pair of dragons is just a short time, sweet love will inevitably end with the pain of the black-haired man sending the white-haired man, since it is impossible to grow old together, it is better to get together and disperse, and the elves rarely intermarry with humans for the same reason.

"Valyusha, no one asks you to marry Roland, you have no such obligation, I just suggest that you further strengthen your relationship with him on the basis of what you are now, for a young man and a woman, there is no bond stronger than love." Elder Golden Dragon finally added an explicit hint, "Your dealings with Roland are of strategic importance to our country, and this is more effective than using other means to woo the voters of the Goddess of Fate. ”

"More effective, and more economical, right?" Valentina couldn't help but taunt her father, "The beauty trick is indeed a good idea, but I don't want to do it!" ”

She once ridiculed the red-robed couple and Carol in front of Roland, criticizing them for using their daughter's marriage as a political bargaining chip, but what now?

She herself has not become the target of a political marriage.

If she accepted this kind of deal, wouldn't all those words she had said at the beginning become a resounding slap in the face? How ironic it is!

Elder Jin Long frowned, and said softly to his daughter: "I thought you would become more rational and mature, but I didn't expect that you haven't changed at all after so many years, think about it yourself, is there a conflict between my expectations of you and your own interests?" If you don't have a crush on Roland Koras, it's not right for me to force you to please him, but is that the reality? If you don't like it, tell me why, and of course, you can also say, 'Whatever a father wants to be a daughter is unconditionally opposed,' and if opposition for the sake of opposition makes you happy, you can do whatever you want, as long as you don't regret it in the future." ”

Valentina bit her lip tightly, her heart uneasy.

Young people need a process of "from doubt to affirmation" to understand the world, it is not wrong to rebel when you are young, you don't need to consider what is at stake, opposition to patriarchy itself represents free will, as for whether the father's opinion is right or wrong, it doesn't matter, what matters is the spirit of rebellion.

But at this age, it would be stupid to be content to oppose for the sake of opposition, and it is enough for young people to disrupt the old order, and adults must always put forward some constructive suggestions, right?

In fact, her father was right, she didn't like it mainly because of his strong support.

Imagine if her father forbade her to associate with Roland, and offered reasons such as "small humans are not worthy of noble golden dragons", what would she say? Needless to say, she will desperately resist her father's brutal interference in her private life, and use this as a motivation to actively pursue Roland, if nothing else, to work against her father, to prove the old man wrong.

Is my life to prove that my father is always mediocre and that I am always right?

One day I'm going to grow old, and what would I think if my children treated me like that?

Valentina's heart was in turmoil.
