I became the God Brother of the Regent King after Transmigration!-Chapter 399 - 308: The Boy and the Dragon_3

"Nian Xia has recently been dealing with the brothel’s aftermath work, and she plans to travel the world with Du Changning in a few days. So, the finances of the Crow Building are now personally handled by me... Just so happens this jade was obtained by Xiao Qi from a corrupt official’s residence at the Southern Border. It was originally a whole piece of jade material, but because it was to be given to the old madam, I carved it into a Buddha statue."

Unexpectedly, Rong Heng has this skill... Well, it makes sense, since most ancient novel male protagonists can carve things.

Gu Lan widened her eyes: "So you were so poor before that you couldn’t even afford food—"

"It’s because Nian Xia didn’t know to give me money," Rong Heng explained, blushing, "and besides, I’m a boy, how could I take my sister’s money?"

Gu Lan asked again: "Then why did you accept it now?"

"Because I suddenly figured it out," Rong Heng’s eyes deepened suddenly, as he slowly approached until he was just inches away from Gu Lan, then he casually said, "Living off someone is delicious, you’re delicious too, I want to enjoy life with you regardless of others’ opinions."

The wealthy and affluent Young Master Gu felt Rong Heng’s hot breath, and his cheeks turned as red as a ripe shrimp.

Since Rong Heng often made Gu Lan’s face flush and heart race, she could leave with ease, so he never tired of teasing her.

Her every smile and every movement were his healing sugar, but sweeter and more enchanting than any candy.

For a moment, Rong Heng couldn’t resist, and he didn’t restrain his inner feelings either. He gently cupped Gu Lan’s face, putting his thoughts into action.

Delicate kisses fell, lightly pecking, breaths entwined, eyes locked. Rong Heng kissed the Young Master Gu into a blushing quail, flushed from her eyes down to her neck with an alluring shade.

Then, he calmly got up, placed the Maitreya Buddha into her arms, and softly reminded, "Lanlan, while I’m not here, you need to keep calm."

Gu Lan: "?"

She leaned against the chair, panting, her whole body weakened. Instinctively, she picked up a fan to cool her face, trying to bring it back to normal temperature.

It took a while for Gu Lan to recover. She regretted it a bit; why did Rong Heng look so refreshed and content, while she felt more exhausted than after a battle?

"Staying calm is impossible. Once you’re gone, I’m going to the Crow Building to find eighteen beautiful women," Gu Lan gritted her teeth and spoke fiercely.

Rong Heng’s lips curved slightly, his dark eyes as rich as ink, smiling like the cool and gentle breeze of early autumn, which made Gu Lan momentarily dazed.

Then, he spoke unhurriedly:

"Young Master Gu, feel free, but—"

"But what?"

"But... you’re not capable, are you?"

The last few words were said with deliberate arrogance, making Gu Lan’s pupils quake for a moment, tempted to throw the Maitreya Buddha in her hand at his head.

She had never thought that one day she would be called incapable! This was blatant revenge from Rong Heng! What does it mean to be incapable? Even though she’s fake, she’s got more than he does, after all!

Rong Heng gently tousled Gu Lan’s soft hair, kissed her forehead like soothing a kitten, and softly said:

"Although this Buddha isn’t much, it was carved by me personally. Didn’t you say you already told the old madam about your identity? I was hoping to use this item and this opportunity..." to meet Gu Lan’s grandmother and mother.

Thinking of this, Rong Heng also blushed, feeling both regretful and relieved. The sudden situation meant everything would have to wait until next time.

Originally, Gu Lan wanted to ask why Rong Heng was blushing, but suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind like lightning.

Was Rong Heng intending to meet the parents!? Does he also want to propose, does this mean she’ll have to reveal her identity, and does this mean she can no longer flirt around in the future?

In an instant, countless possibilities occurred to Gu Lan.

Fortunately, it seems this matter is going to be delayed.

Gu Lan finally adjusted her breathing back to normal, calmly asking, "Less nonsense, so what exactly happened?"

Rong Heng took out a message tube: "This is a letter from the Southern Border... personally written by Yuan Lang. You’ll know when you see it."

Gu Lan took out the letter and began reading. For a long time, the playful look on her face was replaced by a hint of suppressed anger.

The matters she discussed with Uncle Li yesterday indeed became reality.

Yuan Lang wrote in the letter that after Wei Junzhuo handled the coup in Bian, he had reorganized the army and planned to attack the Yan Country. Moreover, he had uncovered an exclusive piece of information that Wei Junzhuo had been getting close to the envoys from Qi Country recently.

The Cang Wind Port happens to be the junction between Qi Country and Yan Country.

If Qi Country were bought by Wei Junzhuo, then it would be extremely convenient for the Wei Army to attack this place, catching everyone off guard.

However, none of these were the reasons for Gu Lan’s anger.

What she cared about was that Yuan Lang mentioned in the letter that as long as they could defeat Wei Junzhuo, he would be willing to cooperate with Dayan and provide information on Wei Junzhuo’s military expeditions.

Once, he hated Yuan Lu’s betrayal of Wei Country, serving Dayan with a passionate hatred.

But now, the young man who once fought dragons has become an evil dragon.

Or rather, for victory, he is willing to betray his own country.
