At Chen Lin's words, White Fish fell silent for a moment.
But she soon spoke again. "I'm very grateful that you saved me, but love isn't something you can rush into blindly or force. I don't even know what you look like or what kind of person you are..."
"That doesn't matter. Destiny brought us together. Heaven and earth may be vast, but destiny reigns above them both. I think it must have taken some extraordinary bond for us to meet here."
Chen Lin spun this nonsense off the top of his head.
Yet White Fish found it quite convincing.
After another brief silence, she said softly, "My name is Xitina. If we meet again after leaving this place, then I'll believe destiny brought us together, and I'll accept you as my man."
"What a coincidence. My name is Lin Xi. Both our names have a 'xi' in them. We really are destined to meet."
Chen Lin paid little attention to what she had said. He only wanted to get more information out of her. As for meeting again after leaving this place, the chances were almost nonexistent.
He had no intention of becoming her man, either.
After giving that perfunctory reply, he continued his questions.
"What is this Bridge of Destiny you mentioned, and how do I get onto it?"
"You don't even know that?"
Xitina sounded even more surprised.
"Then how did you get here? Didn't the guardian explain things to you?"
"The guardian?"
Chen Lin began to understand.
This so-called guardian was probably the Frog in a Well. However, the frog had already left when Chen Lin entered the scenario, so no one had explained the situation to him.
As for why the frog had left...
It most likely had something to do with True Lord Jiuhuan
