I became the God Brother of the Regent King after Transmigration!-Chapter 201 - 136: What Does He Take Her For? (Part 3)

Nian Xia blinked and began to explain casually:

"I have already revealed my identity to Gu Lan. She is close to me because I am your sister. Otherwise, what do you think? A little child likes me? Or that my taste is such that I like young boys?"

Rong Heng paused, glanced back at the drinks inside the private room, and said softly, "Why... tell her those things."

"Because I can see you trust her, so I am also willing to trust her."

"I trust her? She is the heir of Dingyuan Marquis Mansion. Our identities are fundamentally different, so why should I trust an outsider?" Rong Heng said flatly.

Nian Xia pointed at Rong Heng’s chest and smiled seductively, "Wu, maybe you haven’t realized it yourself, but you indulge Gu Lan so much."

Rong Heng looked at the young boy in his arms and said nothing more.

Although he once thought those past events don’t need to be known by anyone, since Nian Xia had already told Gu Lan, he could only accept it and even felt a bit curious in his heart.

Knowing these things, what would Gu Lan’s reaction be? Would she think that she was so helpless when she was young?

Rong Heng held Gu Lan as they left the Magpie Workshop and then secretly snuck into the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, sending Gu Lan back.

After half a month’s time, returning to this room again, Rong Heng’s previous memories were suddenly awakened.

In others’ eyes, it turns out he was indulging Gu Lan.

At this moment, Gu Lan rubbed the corner of her eyes, opened them, and saw Rong Heng right in front of her.

She had just had a dream of nine-year-old Rong Heng being forced to kill Xia He. The little Rong Heng in the dream was crying pitifully, although this was a fantasized dream, Gu Lan felt that back then it might have been just like that.

The scenes in the dream overlapped with the young boy in front of her, Gu Lan was not fully awake, so she said hoarsely, "Don’t be afraid, Rong Xiaowu, I will protect you from now on."

Saying this, she closed her eyes again and slept deeply.

Rong Heng stood beside Gu Lan’s bed, looking steadily at her, his heart pounding.

He had lived for sixteen years but never felt like he did now, because of a drunken sentence uttered by someone, feeling dazed, as if he himself were drunk with her.

Today, upon receiving notice from You Ying saying that Young Master Gu and Nian Xia were in the same room, deep down Rong Heng knew full well that Nian Xia definitely wouldn’t do anything to Gu Lan, nor would Gu Lan.

Yet, he couldn’t help but worry, losing his composure and rushing over.

Whether Gu Lan actually liked him, he still wasn’t sure.

Suddenly, he didn’t know how to regard Gu Lan.

He gazed at the youth sleeping on the bed, his dark eyes filled with confusion.

After a long while, Rong Heng tucked the blanket around Gu Lan and floated away.

The next day, Gu Lan awakened from her hangover, opened the door, and saw Wei Chengyuan kneeling outside her room.

"Lanlan, I have to head to the Northern Territory today and came specifically to bid you farewell." Wei Chengyuan had a simple bundle on his back and carried a sword.

Gu Lan was slightly surprised, "Weren’t you supposed to go to Yunzhou next month? You’ve only taught Rong Yunhao martial arts for a few days."

"Not Yunzhou, it’s Weizhou." Wei Chengyuan said.

Weizhou is similarly an important city in the Northern Territory, even farther north than Yunzhou, and more desolate.

Gu Lan knew that Wei Chengyuan intended to go to the most dangerous and harsh place to ease his own feelings of guilt.

She rubbed her eyes and frowned, "Why so urgent?"

Wei Chengyuan looked up and said gravely, "There was an urgent report from the military this morning that nine days ago, the Qiangrong invaded our Dayan border, and Weizhou has already fallen!" 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

That is the town guarded by Dingyuan Marquis!
