"Because the maid you sent to give me a bath and change clothes kept saying something like, 'The English-style bedroom carefully prepared by Mr. Lin is just useless,' 'There's no point in hiring a specially hired French chef,' and stuff like that.
It's really annoying, so I just came here." Isabella raised her voice and emphasized to Lin Youde, who personally greeted her outside the side door of the mansion, "Please send a maid with a less accent to bother me next time, okay? It's full of talk.
The colonial accent is awful.”
"But, if we don't have an American accent, it's a French accent. There are really not many people who can speak pure British English..."
"Hmph." Isabella snorted, clearly showing her disdain, and then she turned the topic to her new hairstyle, "And what does this mean? Why do I have to tie two ridiculous braids?
You also need to wear two more ridiculous bows! The maid said you personally specified this hairstyle, what are you thinking!"
"I think it suits you very well." As he spoke, Lin Youde lifted his chin and looked at Isabella's twin ponytails carefully, "It's quite good and matches your temperament. Don't you like it?"
"It's just because I think it's appropriate, so I'm angry!" Isabella looked very unhappy, "And what's going on with this dress? It's black and white like a cow..."
"Please, the design of this dress is inspired by the chess board." Lin Youde said in an aggrieved tone, "I think my design talent is not bad enough to make it look like a cow?"
In fact, Lin Youde's skill tree is very high in art, so the dress Isabella is wearing now combines the concepts he brought back from later generations with the current popular styles, even if it is the most famous at this time.
Among the works of the master tailor, it is definitely a masterpiece.
Obviously Isabella also knows this, she is just unhappy so she is finding fault.
Because of this, she was stunned when she heard that this dress was designed by Lin Youde.
"This..." Isabella lowered her head, gently pulled up the black and white plaid skirt of the dress with her right hand, and shook it left and right, "Did you design this?"
"Of course, designing clothes for my beauties and letting them wear them is, uh, one of my biggest hobbies."
Isabella still stared at Lin Youde with suspicion, and was silent for a long time before saying: "Well, ah, no wonder. It turns out that it was made by you. From this point of view, its performance is not bad. After all, it was made by you.
Well, considering the level of the designer, this level of weirdness is completely acceptable."
Lin Youde finally figured it out. She liked this dress very much.
"Let's stop talking outside the door and come in." Lin Youde took a step aside and made an invitation gesture to Isabella.
**
"This is your room." Lin Youde opened the oak door and introduced to Isabella, "It has just been decorated, and it completely imitates the design style of the British Royal Palace. The books on the bookcase were selected by me for you, and the wine cabinet is empty.
Yes, if you want any wine, just tell the maid and ask them to bring it to you. The phone number on the coffee table next to the sofa..."
"I know." Isabella said a little impatiently, "London has also begun to popularize telephone networks."
As she spoke, Isabella walked straight through the spacious house, came to the floor-to-ceiling window, opened the window and walked onto the balcony.
“The scenery is really nice.”
"Because when choosing a location for a mansion, the first thing to consider is the scenery when you go out."
"It's a pity that the pollution is too serious." Isabella raised her head and looked at the somewhat turbid blue sky of Horangabo, "But it reminds me of the sky in London."
"Are you homesick?" Lin Youde also came to her side and leaned on the railing with her to look at...
"If I answer 'yes', will you help me return to my home country?"
"Won't."
"Then don't act so hypocritical."
Lin Youde shrugged. He leaned on the railing and turned his gaze to the sparkling sea in the distance.
At this time, Isabella's voice came from behind: "I said, are you not worried at all that I will suddenly kill you? If I have this idea now, none of your guards can save me.
you."
Lin Youde turned around and showed a fearless smile to Isabella: "We have a proverb in China: If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't get the tiger cubs."
"Well, it's very vivid." Isabella nodded immediately after listening to Lin Youde's literal translation and said, "I roughly understand the meaning of this proverb, so what?"
"So I think it is necessary for me to take such actions to show my sincerity."
Isabella and Lin Youde looked at each other for several seconds before shaking their heads and sighing: "How on earth did you survive to this day?"
"I'm very strange too." Lin Youde smiled happily, "This is called destiny. Maybe I really am a guy blessed by destiny."
In fact, Lin Youde was the man who was destined to travel through time, but Isabella didn't know this, so she just kept shaking her head, with nothing but emotion on her face.
"You guy..." Isabella paused, then stepped forward and lay on the railing, almost shoulder to shoulder with Lin Youde, "Although you are an annoying guy, I have to admit that you are indeed a bit powerful in some aspects.
.”
Lin Youde originally wanted to complain about the expression "a bit powerful", but Isabella didn't give him a chance to speak.
The girl continued: "Do you still remember the first time I came to Helanggabo?"
"How could I not remember?" Lin Youde also recalled that bluff lightning salute.
"At that time, I thought you were the most arrogant, idiotic and annoying guy I had ever seen, but I didn't expect you to actually do it." Isabella set her sights on the most electrified place in the world, Holanggabo.
"Compared with the brilliance you have created in the past ten years, all my civil and martial arts skills pale in comparison."
"So you're trying every possible way to trip me up?"
"To make a stumbling block?"
"You just mean to cause trouble for me."
After hearing Lin Youde's explanation, Isabella did not answer immediately. She pondered for a moment and then shook her head.
"No, I don't know what's wrong with me. After you slapped me yesterday, I thought a lot. The more I thought about it, the more I felt that some of my previous decisions were really idiotic."
"Sorry, I know that hitting a woman, especially hitting a woman on the face is..."
"After being beaten, why are you talking about this? Besides, I am a goddess, so this level is not a big deal at all."
What Isabella said made Lin Youde feel even more embarrassed. Just like that, silence fell between the two of them.
It was Isabella who broke the silence first: "Now, when I was still under the control of drugs, you said something like 'don't give in to it'?"
"Uh, yes. So you remember."
"I just have such a vague memory. I can't remember exactly what you said."
"It's best not to think about it, otherwise I will be embarrassed. It's so embarrassing. Those words."
Isabella smiled, maybe she didn't even realize it, and Lin Youde didn't notice it because his back was to her. This smile just bloomed where no one noticed, but it was still bright.
"I want to say, thank you, Your Excellency, Secretary of the Navy. I had actually given up at that time, and all I was thinking about was 'anyone can give me some medicine.' It was your words that gave me a push."
"That's it. It's great to be able to help you."
Isabella stared at Lin Youde's smiling side face from the side, and the rise and fall of her chest gradually accelerated.
At this time, a burst of piano sound came along with the wind, attracting Isabella's attention.
"This is……"
"It's Sissi, how about it? Do you want to go and listen to the performance live?"
