Fair enough.

“read-from-minibuffer” as well as the functions suggested by Stefan
Monnier (“read-number”, “read-string”, …) have a parameter DEFAULT or
DEFAULT-VALUE (or similar) that you may use for that purpose; read their
documentation.

You may also check the return value of “read-from-minibuffer” or
“read-string” and act accordingly:

    (let ((read-result (read-from-minibuffer "Prompt: ")))
      (if (seq-empty-p read-result)
        (setq read-result "default-value")))
