Lin Yingying didn’t tell Long Fei that she had made a condition with Wang Xiaoya before getting married.
That is, she and Long Fei would not register their marriage.
This way, in the eyes of the secular law, Long Fei would still be single, and she could share Long Fei with Wang Xiaoya.
Even if they lived in secular society later on, she wouldn’t mind the affair between Long Fei and Wang Xiaoya.
With that, Wang Xiaoya chose to step back.
Lin Yingying’s stance made Long Fei feel as if his heart were blossoming.
When would he be able to embrace one with his left hand and another with his right, and have peace under the heavens?
Athens, a legendary city.
It had once been a hegemon among the many city-states of Ancient Greece, flaunting its prowess for generations.
Later, after being defeated by Sparta, the Greek Empire began to decline until it was finally destroyed by the barbarian tribe from the north, Macedonia.
The man who destroyed Ancient Greece was Alexander.
Lin Yingying planned to stay here for three days before visiting the foot of Mount Olympus.
Athens had many tourist spots that should not be missed, which were greatly beneficial for understanding the entire Greek Divine Clan.
Not to mention the Aegean Sea, which was not much different from Binhai’s sea, is just cleaner.
One must visit the Acropolis of Athens, which is filled with numerous cultural relics left from ancient times.
The grand temples, marble pillars, and statues.
There were also the Senate, council halls, theaters, clubs, and various other city function buildings.
Inside the temple, the Goddess of Wisdom, Athena, was worshipped.
In those years, the Human Race established a new city by the Aegean Sea, and Athena wished to become the guardian deity of this city.
Sea god Poseidon also wanted to claim the new city. They were both unyielding, and thus a dispute arose.
Latter, the Divine King Zeus decreed that whoever could give humanity the most useful gift would own the city.
Poseidon struck the rock with his Trident, and out came a horse, symbolizing war.
Meanwhile, Athena struck the rock with her Long Spear and immediately, a lush olive tree full of branches and fruit rapidly grew from the stone.
The olive tree symbolized peace and abundance, and the people cheered, feeling that this was what they truly desired.
Thus, Athena became the guardian deity of the new city.
The people named the city Athens after her and planted olive trees throughout the city.
After getting off the plane, Lin Yingying and Long Fei rested for a night in a hotel they had booked in advance.
At dawn, the two of them got ready and started visiting the Temple of Athena.
Compared to the thousands of years of heritage in Huaxia, the cultural sites here were but a collection of broken walls and ruins.
In this empty place, apart from the tall pillars, there really wasn’t much to see.
Lin Yingying, in a Bohemian-style long dress with an orange scarf wrapped around her head and wearing sunglasses.
The wind blew her dress, and under the sunlight, she looked beautiful, ethereal, and immaculate, no less breathtaking than Athena herself.
She posed in front of the temple, letting Long Fei take several pictures of her.
Long Fei, with no sense of aesthetics, picked up his phone and without any technique, snapped away at Lin Yingying.
According to him, when a person is beautiful, any photo taken looks good.
Lin Yingying was dissatisfied. With such a beautiful temple, he just bare chose a marble pillar as the background.
With a simple adjustment of the focus to a longer distance, he could have captured the whole temple behind her.
As she felt a wave of frustration, a foreigner speaking fluent Chinese shouted at them, "What a coincidence, beautiful lady!"
This person had the typical tall and handsome build of a European man, dressed in a black leisure jacket, wearing sunglasses, and with a DSLR camera hanging around his neck.
It was none other than the man who had shown interest in Lin Yingying on the plane.
Long Fei furrowed his brow, thinking to himself how this guy was like a piece of sticky candy, impossible to shake off once he adhered.
Lin Yingying recognized him and greeted him politely, "Hello, do you need something?"
The man extended his hand and said, "Hello, my name is Ares, a special editor for a fashion magazine. I specialize in finding beautiful things around the world and capturing them. Your aura and image fit our requirements perfectly. Would you be willing to let me be your photographer and document you along with the beautiful City of Athens?"
Without extending her hand, Long Fei took the initiative and grasped it.
He glared at the foreigner with knit brows, "Sorry, but my wife is for me to admire only. You should find someone else!"
The foreigner, hearing this unfriendly tone, maintained a faint smile, yet he subtly exerted some strength in his hand.
Long Fei chuckled, thinking that it was rare to find someone who wanted to compete in strength with him.
His hand remained still, letting the foreigner apply force.
To Long Fei’s surprise, Ares had considerable strength that far exceeded his expectations.
He was just squeezing lightly, intending to teach this presumptuous Eastern man a lesson.
But as soon as he gripped Long Fei’s hand, he realized something was amiss.
Ordinary people simply did not possess Long Fei’s strength.
His azure eyes shone brightly, increasing the pressure in his grip continually.
Eventually, a faint aura of wind swirled around the pair.
Ares’ grip was strong enough to twist steel into a ball, but upon squeezing Long Fei’s hand, there was not the slightest reaction.
Lin Yingying, unaware of the situation, furrowed her brows as she watched from the side.
The two men, staring intensely into each other’s eyes, had been grasping hands for over a minute.
Damn it, this was turning into some bromance.
She intervened, "Long Fei, it’s time to go."
"Ares sir, it’s been a pleasure meeting you."
Long Fei released his grip with a smile.
Ares also withdrew his hand, his forehead covered in cold sweat, staring at Long Fei with an unwilling expression, "I’m also happy to have met you. May I know your names?"
Long Fei pondered for a moment, thinking that this guy was still looking to cling on.
He casually gave the name Chu Feng had coined for him and stylishly pulled Lin Yingying’s hand to leave.
Ares, reciting the name, coldly huffed, "Eastern man, I have underestimated you. Given the chance, I will make you kneel at my feet."
His foot stamped on the floor with force, and the marble cracked, spreading out like a spiderweb.
Long Fei, having walked about fifteen meters with Lin Yingying, felt her jerk her wrist free with strength.
She complained, "Hey, are you trying to kill me, gripping so hard? You’ve left red marks on my arm."
Long Fei complained with a sour tone, "If I didn’t grip hard, could you have walked away? Just seeing a foreign hunk and you lose your way, always fawning over foreigners. When will the women of Huaxia start having some self-respect!"
Lin Yingying was at first outraged, but Long Fei’s gloomy face made her burst into laughter. Teasingly, she asked, "Are you jealous?"
"Ridiculous, would I be jealous?"
Long Fei argued fiercely, trying to maintain his mighty image.
Lin Yingying laughed, her eyes narrowed, "If you’re jealous, just admit it! What’s with this act! Your photos aren’t as good, what’s the harm in letting someone take a few nice shots for me? You’re just being narrow-minded."
Long Fei took her to a small restaurant and sat down. He ordered a beer and took a swig, then warned her, "I’m telling you, that foreigner is not an ordinary person. If you see him again, you’d better stay alert."
Lin Yingying, who was perusing her photos, looked up inquisitively upon hearing this. Latest content publıshed on 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝘯𝘦𝘵
