?Chapter 1236: 603 Alone (Second Update)_3 Chapter 1236: 603 Alone (Second Update)_3 Xiao Hen walked toward him, and Fen Lin also ran toward Xiao Hen. The two stopped on the bluestone path in front of Hanlin Academy.
Fen Lin patted Xiao Hen on the shoulder, “It’s been a long time. You’ve grown taller again!”
“Have I?” Xiao Hen said. “You seem to have gotten a bit stronger, too.”
“That’s right!” Fen Lin beamed.
Xiao Hen had planned to take a walk alone, but since a friend had arrived, going out to sit together didn’t seem like a bad idea, “You came at just the right time, I…”
Before he could finish, Fen Lin turned back to the carriage and said, “Wife! Come down and meet Liulang! He’s the top scholar I told you about!”
Xiao Hen was taken aback. Wife? Fen Lin was married?
“It’s actually for the marriage that I requested leave. I only found out when I went back why my parents were so eager for me to return for the New Year. They had a marriage proposition for me…” Fen Lin explained somewhat sheepishly.
A young woman stepped down from the carriage, dressed like she was from a wealthy family, and conducted herself with propriety.
“She’s the daughter of a wealthy local,” Fen Lin whispered. “Her surname is Hu.”
Fen Lin came from a poor family, but after he placed high in two examinations and stayed in Hanlin Hall for further study, a well-to-do local took notice of his potential and gave his daughter to him in marriage.
Mrs. Hu greeted Xiao Hen, “I have the pleasure of meeting you, Sir Xiao.”
She had a look of pure innocence, and Xiao Hen returned the courtesy with a bow.
Noticing the weariness in Mrs. Hu, Fen Lin quickly said to Xiao Hen, “We’ve been on the road for several days; my wife is tired. I’ll take her back to the mansion to rest first. We’ll catch up with you later!”
Xiao Hen had never expected that Fen Lin would depart alone and return as a pair. The couple’s tender affection toward each other made it clear that they were newlyweds deeply in love.
After Fen Lin boarded the carriage, he lifted the curtain again and said to Xiao Hen, “Right, Lin Chengye’s married, too! He’ll be back a month late. It seems his father thinks he’s quite clever and needs to produce more offspring for the Lin Family. I guess the next time he comes to the Capital City, it’ll be three of them.”
