[Chapter 493: The New Princess in the Harem]
After lunch, the two had no mood left to admire the garden's scenery. Linton swept Xu Qing into a princess carry and headed straight for the master bedroom deep within the estate. What had begun as a quick, intense rendezvous on the plane was just an appetizer.
In the vast master bedroom, they indulged in a passionate, unrestrained love-making session that lasted for hours. Their joy-filled moans and tender whispers echoed softly through the room.
By Linton's usual habits, their intimate encounter would have continued right through dinner, with the meal brought directly to the seventh courtyard. However, since this was Xu Qing's first visit, he wanted to make sure she was presented as a true lady of the manor. When twilight came and the garden lights glowed warmly, they paused, their passionate storm settled, and finally stepped out of the bedroom.
...
Waiting for them were two beautiful attendants, standing in unison, respectfully greeting, "Sir, Miss Xu, your dinner is ready."
Xu Qing linked her arm through Linton's, a rosy blush spreading across her cheeks. "Darling, this is incredible. Are you sure all this isn't over the top?"
"Isn't this just how it should be?"
"It feels like we've really become a prince and his princess."
"You've always been my princess," Linton said with a sly smile.
"Your words are dangerously sweet."
After dinner, Linton finally had time to take her on a stroll through the inner courtyard. Bathed in bright moonlight and surrounded by glowing lanterns, the nighttime view was just as enchanting as daytime.
...
Finally, they arrived at the villa area -- fifty individual houses. "Sweetheart, you can choose any unclaimed villa here for your personal space. Don't worry about upkeep while you're away; you can select two personal assistants from the girls, though with the current shortage, you'll start with just one."
"Darling, who else already lives here?" Xu Qing asked curiously.
"Honestly? I've got twenty girlfriends already, each with their own villa. But most are busy working in Los Angeles right now."
"Twenty? Isn't that a bit much?"
"Sweetheart, are you doubting my charm?"
"Charm isn't the problem -- how do you even manage to keep that many people from driving each other crazy?"
"First, not just anyone becomes my girlfriend. They have to follow two rules."
"Rules for being your girlfriend? Do tell."
"Simple -- Rule One: Loyalty. No relationships with other men. Rule Two: All girlfriends must love and support each other, resolving conflicts openly -- no backstabbing or fighting. Anyone who can't accept this can leave anytime. Break a rule, and it's over instantly."
"That sounds awfully one-sided."
"I can't help it. Who else would twenty women want, if not me?" Linton replied shamelessly.
"But honestly, can they really live together in harmony?"
"That's the magic of me. And mostly, it's about the benefits."
"Benefits?"
"It's simple. Being with me means you keep the most stunning looks, the healthiest bodies. After experiencing this, can you really walk away?"
"Not everyone sees looks and body as the entire life, though."
"Besides that, being with me opens doors to huge career growth, becoming stars in the spotlight, and earning power to match."
"Looks, body, career -- sounds like you have it all covered. Hard to say no to that."
"So, will you accept my rules?"
"Ugh, I didn't know you were such a player, and now you tricked me all the way across the Pacific. What am I supposed to say?"
"Alright, alright, let's head back. I'll carry you like a princess again," Linton teased, sweeping her up once more and rushing back into the mansion.
Those sweet love songs started floating through the air again.
...
The next morning, after finally emerging from their lengthy, blissful lovemaking, the two were fully satisfied. After breakfast, Linton took Xu Qing to his office and laid out an endorsement contract.
He said, "They want you to be the face of Beauty Pills and Vitality Pills -- the Beauty Angel. The endorsement fee is a whopping $10 million a year."
Xu Qing stared wide-eyed at the number, speechless. "Do I really deserve that much?"
"Confidence, darling. My woman deserves the best."
"Now I'm starting to see how they all manage to get along."
"Exactly. But to sign this, you need an agent here in America. Do you have one?"
"I'm new here. Could you help arrange one?"
"I'll have my agent come by. In fact, all my girlfriends, including Michelle Reis and Vivian Chow, have contracts under her management."
"I trust you."
"So many endorsements -- must be a lot of work?"
"Not really. Just two posters to display in the boutique, but that boutique won't open until May 6th. We can enjoy ourselves here first, then head to LA. There is plenty of time."
"You spoil me, darling," Xu Qing said softly, suddenly feeling touched. She couldn't help but fidget with joy.
The merry music filled the room again.
...
Two hours later, the endorsement contract was finally signed, after some delays.
"Baby, learn English well now. Soon, I'll have you star as the lead in one of my music videos so America can get to know you. Later this year, I'll find a film role for you, starting with a supporting part."
"Thank you, honey. You're too good to me."
...
"Sweetheart, here are forty private suites. You can pick one." From the seventh courtyard, they moved to the sixth as Linton gestured around.
"The fifth and fourth courtyards will be for the kids to live in."
"This is the office area -- you can choose an office here." In the third courtyard, he showed her the forty large offices furnished with studies and lounges.
...
Throughout the tour, Xu Qing was overwhelmed but thrilled. Only one thought ran through her mind: "This place is insanely luxurious."
Yet, beneath it all, her heart was bursting with happiness.
By day, the couple leisurely explored the estate; in the afternoon, they wandered through the back gardens, everything more beautiful than ever before.
At night, their passionate fun resumed.
