Chapter 208: Chapter 208: Can the Child Follow Me?"Lin Xinlan, open the door quickly," Rong Shaoze couldn’t help but intensify his tone. Lin Xinlan calmed her emotions and opened the door. The man stood at the door, his profound gaze fixed on her, as if trying to see through her thoughts. Lin Xinlan’s face was composed, her eyes meeting his in a tranquil gaze that was flat and unrippled, completely devoid of any other emotion. "Come in, I have something to tell you," she stepped aside and then sat down on the couch. Rong Shaoze followed her in and sat next to her. He didn’t start with any explanations, and Lin Xinlan hadn’t expected him to: "Rong Shaoze, I know we’re definitely going to divorce, it was something we arranged from the beginning, and I never thought about being your wife, just waiting for the day we would divorce. However, in consideration of bearing your child, could you grant me one request?" The man looked up, his gaze still inscrutable. "What is it?" "After we’re divorced, could you let the child stay with me? I will take good care of him and won’t prevent you from seeing him. I just want to raise him myself, and when he grows up, whether he wants to stay with me or return to the Rong Family, it will be his decision to make." "Is that your request?" Rong Shaoze asked indifferently, a slight frown on his brow. Lin Xinlan looked directly into his eyes, nodding firmly: "Yes, that is my request. I just want to raise the child myself. I don’t want him to recognize anyone else as his mother, and I hope for your pity on a mother’s feelings, that you can agree to my request." "And you can’t spare a thought for a father’s feelings?" the man retorted. Lin Xinlan choked up, feeling a discomfort in her heart, "It’s not that I cruelly want to separate the child from you... it’s just that, to me, the child is very important, more important than my own life. But in your heart, there are many important things, and besides, if you want children, Miss Du can have them for you; you won’t miss this child. Just agree, and when the time comes, let me take the child away." Rong Shaoze suddenly smiled and countered with a question: "Have you never thought about not divorcing me?" Lin Xinlan hesitated: "How could we possibly not divorce? If Miss Du wakes up, won’t you marry her? Moreover, there’s no affection between us, and you don’t wish for me to always be your wife, nor did I ever think about living with you forever. We are definitely going to divorce." So in this woman’s heart, she had always harbored such thoughts. She actually had never considered not divorcing him. Rong Shaoze felt very displeased and said flatly, "If you really care so much about the child, you should give him a complete family and try every means to not divorce me. Lin Xinlan, have you really never had such a thought?" Searᴄh the novёlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Lin Xinlan was stunned. Not to divorce Rong Shaoze and to continue living like this? She had thought about it... But, she didn’t love him, and he didn’t love her either. Besides, she also couldn’t forget the hurt he had caused her... Those pains and humiliations, she always kept hidden in her heart, not showing them, didn’t mean she didn’t care or had forgotten. She hadn’t misheard his earlier promise to Mrs. Du, he said he would not hurt Du Ruoxin. His words were clear, and if she still didn’t understand, it would be masochism. "Have you thought about not divorcing me, giving the child a complete family?" Lin Xinlan countered without answering. "..."
