Chapter 414: Chapter 414 Men and Women are Different (5)_1

"The Prince is of high nobility, and I am but a mere peasant girl. Perhaps I might be presumptuous, but considering the Prince’s stature, there really is no need for you to be like this with me. All I want..." Lin Ziyin’s tone was less angry and indignant than before, carrying a hint of bitter resignation as she tried to be honest with Chu Suifeng.

"What do you want?" Chu Suifeng coldly asked her, his harsh gaze unwavering.

"All I wish for is someone to cherish me, who would share life’s hardships and endure the storms of life with me. Someone who would be with me forever, without any distance created by family background, wealth or other issues," Lin Ziyin lifted her head to look at him, "I am a clean freak, I won’t share a husband with anyone else."

The last sentence was said softly.

Hong Ying, Qiaoqiao and the others almost collapsed to the ground upon hearing these words. They always knew Lin Ziyin was bold and adventurous in her thinking, but they never knew that her ideas could be so "shocking and unconventional".

"There are indeed other women in my residence, but I have never touched them. However, I can’t send them away right now, it takes some more time," Chu Suifeng inexplicably felt relieved.

Chu Suifeng lost his own mother at a young age and if it weren’t for the kindness his mother had shown to Ding’an Temple prior to her death, it’s uncertain whether he would have survived. The Emperor, his father, never cared about his life or death, and to be honest, would have rather seen him dead. Chu Suifeng knew that if it weren’t for the monks of Ding’an Temple, his fate would have been disastrous.

Now, his influence was gradually growing and even if the Emperor saw him as a thorn in his side, he couldn’t shake his place. Those women in his residence would be dismissed before long. He had never planned to marry many women, he didn’t want his children to go through what he had to.

In Chu Suifeng’s opinion, if it weren’t for the vast number of consort in the Emperor’s harem, his tender-hearted mother wouldn’t have been inexplicably framed and died with her eyes wide open.

Men and women see things differently, Chu Suifeng’s explanation was angering Lin Ziyin. In Lin Ziyin’s view, even if Chu Suifeng felt something for her, she couldn’t accept such affection.

Although she isn’t a soft-hearted person, her modern mother unknowingly became the other woman and as a result, lived a life of melancholy. This resulted in her losing the protection and love of her parents a bit too early. What others deemed as parental love became a luxury for her.

Once she became cognizant, Lin Ziyin swore that never in her life would she be the other woman to a man. She would never cause harm to another woman for her own feelings. "Doesn’t the Prince think this is unfair to those women?" she asked coldly.

Lin Ziyin wasn’t naive enough to believe that the women in her residence were merely commoners. Once a woman enters the Wang Residence, she must have a considerable status. Since Chu Suifeng had allowed those women into his residence for his own benefits, he should bear the responsibilities that come with it.

Yet, Chu Suifeng was trying to get rid of those women after using them. Such behavior is precisely what Lin Ziyin despised about scumbags.

Chu Suifeng nonchalantly explained why the women came into his residence and why he hadn’t touch them, without going into specifics. In his view, those women were all spies from others, and they were bound to be expelled from the residence eventually. Explaining it to Lin Ziyin would only cause unnecessary distress for her.

The way men and women thought was always peculiar; they could often have completely different perspectives on the same matter.

"It seems like the Prince hasn’t understood what I was trying to express." Lin Ziyin said with a downcast gaze, "Even without those women, I would never attempt to latch onto someone as high as the Prince."
