Chapitre 5: The Second Proposal

The silence was awkward with only the three men—one ger and the two men who rode in on the black stallions. The two men were huddled together as though Xu Feng was some kind of scourge to be avoided.

But Xu Feng on the other side of the table in the reception room, couldn't keep his eyes off the iceberg. This was a walking tree that he eagerly wanted to climb.

He slowly took in the colder man's face and the tightness of his body that could be gleamed from his loose robes. While he was dressed well, his clothing seemed a bit more practical in comparison to the young master's.

*Ahem* the taller man coughed once again to encourage Xu Feng to take his eyes off the iceberg.

This time, Xu Feng's face finally grew red as he felt a tiny bit of shame from his shameless gawking.

"My mother didn't bring you here to lust after Jian," he said disdainfully as he looked down at the lustful ger. His hands were clenched as he tried to keep his emotions in check.

"Jian?" Xu Feng chewed the name, almost drawn back to the iceberg's handsome face, or even his athletic body. "Nice name."

The iceberg couldn't continue ignoring the ger at this point, and let out a small smile at the cute ger. He was too thin, but he was a very handsome ger.

"Nice smile," Xu Feng added with a dimpled smile on his face appreciating Jian's new expression.

*Ahem* the taller man huffed again, clearly fed up with Xu Feng and his desires.

"The young master is handsome as well," Xu Feng slowly added, and this was NOT a lie. Both men were ridiculously handsome, sitting beside each other. So much so that he understood why all web novel characters were always handsome.

It seemed to be some universal rule that when one transmigrated or was reborn, they would be surrounded by nothing but handsome men and gorgeous women. It was still shocking to be subjected to that beauty firsthand.

"But it doesn't matter how handsome you both are, what matters is that we can conceive a child smoothly."

Both men paused momentarily, not expecting that.

"Mother...Lady Xuan, told me about the terms you both spoke of, and I want to add, there is no way for us to become a true pair. You aren't my type; I don't want a ger like you." He said straightforwardly without hesitation.

"Young master Yang…"

"Fair enough. I don't want to spend my youth in a loveless marriage anyway. A beautiful face and a meaningless title are not worth it to me. You probably know all about my background and why this property would be a great trade for me."

Both men froze again, not expecting a rural little ger to speak so straightforwardly and to look forward to a divorce.

"I do hope that our coupling will at the very least be enjoyable. I've heard you have ample experience in brothels and have had countless partners over the last two years. I hope you can use that experience to make my first time less painful."

Both men were absolutely stunned. What well-bred ger…even a village ger shouldn't have such audacity in front of unmarried men, especially men with much higher social ranking.

"If you don't think you can make it pleasurable for me, that's fine, but you have to actually try to make a baby. The sooner I conceive, the sooner we can get a clean divorce. And I still want it all in writing."

The young master Yang's mouth hung open in complete shock, almost forgetting what he had practiced saying to the "greedy" ger.

Xu Feng stood, taking one last look at the iceberg, wishing he'd get a chance to ride that roller-coaster, before heading toward the door of the reception room they were seated in privately.

"Whether you can birth a son for me or not, I don't care. Just don't get in my way, and I'll make sure you want for nothing." Xuan Yang said with less conviction than he had on his way to the Nanshan estate.

"Mmhmm," Xu Feng acquiesced as he paused a few feet away, "you can bed whoever you want, whenever you want, so long as I regularly get your seed as well. Once a week should suffice, the more frequent, the better. I have a deep-colored mole…"

At this, both men looked up at Xu Feng's deep red mole and swallowed as a physiological response to the ger's allure.

"So, my fertility is almost guaranteed, with enough cooperation from you, I will be out of your life in no time. And you'll go back to living your life as you wish, just like before I came to be an eyesore."

The room was silent, with only Xu Feng's steady steps ringing. Before he reached the doorway, the iceberg, Xuan Jian, quickly added.

"The madam will be here first thing tomorrow morning. We set out by horse without any rest to get here earlier."

"When she arrives, we'll draw up the contract, and prepare for a small marriage ceremony in Nanshan."

Xu Feng turned back with relief. Thank goodness they wouldn't make things more complicated than needed.

"Very well," he said with a trace of excitement, before nodding to the two seated men and leaving the room with a noticeable pep in his step.

"Are you sure he is a ger?"

"His mole seemed very real."

"He sounded more like a lustful man than a demure ger. He wants me to make it pleasurable for him…"

"Can't you do that? Do you not have the confidence? Do you need some more practice?" Xuan Jian laughed, the ice that permeated his person melting as his laughter reverberated in the small room.

"Hmm," Xuan Yang muttered disdainfully, but with a deep smile in his eyes. He wasn't excited about this marriage, but he wasn't dreading it as much as before either. The ger was interesting.
