I became the God Brother of the Regent King after Transmigration!-Chapter 101 - 78: Prince Rui Is Actually a...

"Uh... Daddy, I didn’t mean to."

"This is the Peace Pendant your mother gave me! Rong Yunhao—!" Prince Rui shouted angrily, once again calling out the young prince’s full name.

He crouched down, carefully picked up the Peace Pendant that was broken into two pieces, and clutched it in his palm, his eyes burning with intense fury.

Then, Prince Rui shouted, "Stay away from me!"

Gu Lan: ... That’s it?

He looked as if he was going to kill his son, but ended up saying just that, sounding a bit aggrieved?

Though Prince Rui appeared stern and cold, he was actually soft-hearted and good-tempered.

Rong Baoyi said with a smile, "Daddy, if it weren’t for Young Master Gu, Baoyi wouldn’t see you today."

"Young Master Gu really is quite different from his reputation, making me see him in a new light." Rong Shuo adjusted his mood and couldn’t help but scrutinize Gu Lan with deep and uncertain tiger-like eyes.

This is Gu Chengzhao’s son?

Why does he look so tender and weak, like a little chick.

But, he’s truly hand— handsome.

Well, that’s good. Baoyi takes after her mother, often quite fiery. This Young Master looks refined, scholarly; they complement each other well.

Their previous demeanor suggests they’re quite familiar, perhaps childhood friends and sweethearts growing up together.

Thinking about this, Rong Shuo frowned again.

No, no. If Baoyi really gets involved with this boy, the one at a disadvantage would be his daughter.

If Gu Chengzhao’s grandson finds out, wouldn’t he overshadow him for a lifetime?

In the middle of the night, he might even dream about it and wake up laughing.

Yet Gu Lan truly is good-looking and likable...

Prince Rui was immensely conflicted in his heart.

Young Master Gu had never dreamed that one day people would consider him scholarly.

She didn’t know Prince Rui was already torn over whether to match her with Baoyi, just felt that when Prince Rui looked at her, he surprisingly had the same expression his daughter usually had when seeing her and Rong Heng.

This father and daughter, truly biological.

At this moment, Gu Lan turned back to look around, noticing that Rong Heng hadn’t followed them.

The handsome young man, as gentle as the clear wind and bright moon, still stood at the edge of the training ground, his eyes calm and still, vast and silent, not fitting in with everything around.

Rong Yunhao said, "Brother Lan, Uncle Wu just told me to go find Daddy first. He’s going to look at the Xiao Family Army soldiers there."

The Xiao Family Army barely has one-tenth left; there are only a few hundred soldiers in this camp, how many could be from the Xiao Family Army?

Even if there are, Rong Heng doesn’t recognize them, he won’t be able to see anything.

Gu Lan had heard earlier that the Emperor handed over the disbanded Xiao Family Army to Prince Rui to command, so she guessed Rong Heng held resentment towards his elder brother.

However, she hadn’t forgotten Brother Hang, on the day Prince Rui returned to the capital, thought he was a bandit plotting against the young prince, but secretly protected him all the way.

He keeps calling Prince Rui outwardly, acting distant, yet secretly isn’t he protecting other people’s sons.

Now seeing Prince Rui, he’s too shy, finds a corner, unwilling to meet...

Prince Rui followed her gaze, momentarily feeling a flash of pain in his eyes.

Because of Rong Luo’s death, he had resentment towards Rong Heng, and Rong Heng undoubtedly still harbors resentment towards him for replacing the Xiao Family.

Prince Rui withdrew his gaze and stepped into his camp, instructing his Commander of the Personal Guard, Tang Zhan: "Tang Zhan, prepare tea for Young Master Gu."

For a while, there was no movement around.

Prince Rui lifted his head, seeing Tang Zhan’s face blackened, motionless.

"Tang Zhan!" Prince Rui called again.

Tang Zhan really didn’t want to serve Young Master Gu tea, he gritted his teeth loudly, saying word by word, "Gu Lan is afraid I’ll poison him, so he won’t drink."

Gu Lan suspiciously turned to look at him, her face with a faint smile. She already had a rosy lips and white teeth, now looking even more like an innocent and well-behaved young gentleman:

"Who said I won’t drink? Tea personally brewed by Guard Tang must be especially delicious; I almost want to drink ten cups... Prince, what kind of tea do you have?"

"Longjing and Maojian, what would Young Master like to drink?" Prince Rui, though looking stern and unsmiling, his voice deep and powerful, wasn’t cold in nature. Seeing Gu Lan so polite, he sighed inwardly again that rumors are not to be trusted.

"Then let’s have five cups of each to taste. Prince, you know our Dingyuan Marquis Mansion is quite wealthy, and I was brought up pampered, so my taste is rather picky." Gu Lan’s tone was bright and relaxed, her water-like eyes staring at Tang Zhan.

Only Tang Zhan could see the full provocation and pride in Young Master’s eyes, seemingly saying, come hit me.

Tang Zhan remained still, prepared for Gu Lan to speak further, and prepared to strike.

He’s ready to fight her!
