The Prime Minister Seduced Me to have Babies!-Chapter 648: What Can Be Given and What Cannot Be Given
The two continued walking forward and saw Lin Shuo and a young woman in a light green dress standing at a distance.
The woman’s face was not clear due to the distance.
Yun Jiao nudged Jiang Youzhi with her elbow, "Brother Lin is over there!"
"It seems like they’re talking, let’s wait. Once they’re done, we’ll go over and see."
Jiang Youzhi responded with a "hmm", "Let’s go to the pond and watch the fish."
At this moment, Lin Shuo looked at Feng Shuzhen, who was not far from him, without disappointment or surprise.
Feng Shuzhen was of medium height, with gentle brows and eyes, fair skin, and a very beautiful appearance.
Presently, her face was flushed, her gaze lowered, and she said nothing.
She had thought that the meeting would simply involve seeing each other, unexpectedly, Mr. Lin suggested they exchange a few words.
Under the suggestion of her mother, she followed him out.
After pondering for a while, Lin Shuo spoke, "I wonder what Miss Feng hopes for in this marriage?"
Feng Shuzhen’s face reddened, she quickly lowered her head and said, "I don’t understand what Mr. Lin means?"
"I only know that I must obey my father at home and my husband after marriage."
Lin Shuo frowned slightly, "Do you have no thoughts at all, like hoping for conjugal love after marriage?"
Feng Shuzhen’s face was so red it seemed like it might bleed, she stammered, "Mr. Lin, such things are not for a maiden like me to hear."
Lin Shuo was somewhat disappointed but felt it was indeed as he expected.
He thought for a moment and said, "Miss Feng, I have my requirements for this marriage. If Miss Feng can meet them, then we will marry. If not, please be honest about it." 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮
Feng Shuzhen kept her head down, after a moment she softly said, "Tell me."
Lin Shuo pondered for a moment, and slowly said, "I need a wife to bear an heir for the Marquis Mansion and help my mother manage it; these are my requirements for a wife."
"What I can provide for my wife is respect, and moreover, I will never take a concubine."
Upon hearing this, Feng Shuzhen’s heart raced rapidly.
Earlier, when Lin Shuo and Madam Hou entered the quiet room, she had already taken a liking to him at first sight.
He was handsome and had an impressive presence, exactly the ideal husband she had dreamed of.
She hadn’t expected to have such luck, to meet such an excellent man.
She felt very anxious, afraid that Mr. Lin would not fancy her.
When Mr. Lin said he wanted to speak with her, a wave of ecstasy surged in her heart—could this mean that Mr. Lin also favored her? Otherwise, he surely wouldn’t speak to her at all.
She never imagined that Mr. Lin seemed quite satisfied with her, promising respect even before discussing marriage, even saying he wouldn’t take a concubine.
No concubines!
Both her grandfather and father had concubines, and sometimes when visiting others, she’d hear young women whispering that it would be wonderful if their future husbands didn’t take concubines, as the mistresses at home caused endless trouble.
She would secretly think so herself but dared not say it.
Upon hearing Lin Shuo’s words, it felt like a giant pie fell from the heavens onto her head.
She bit her lip, about to muster the courage to say something, when Lin Shuo continued, "Aside from respect and not for taking concubines, there will be nothing more."
Lin Shuo’s voice lowered, "Don’t hope for conjugal affection, I can’t provide that."
The joyful feeling that had just risen in Feng Shuzhen’s heart seemed doused by a bucket of cold water.
She kept her gaze lowered, secretly contemplating in her heart whether he couldn’t provide affection because his feelings were already given to someone else?
