I became the God Brother of the Regent King after Transmigration!-Chapter 65 - 62: Picked Up (Third Update)

The young boy in plain-colored robes was sitting on a stone bench in the courtyard, fiddling with a pot of herbal medicine.

As the sky lightened, the mingling of faint moonlight and daylight fell upon him, making him appear both clear and bright.

Upon hearing the sound of the door opening, Rong Heng looked up and saw Gu Lan, covered in blood, standing at the door, accompanied by a tall and cold man.

The spoon in his hand slipped from his fingertips, falling into the pot and splashing a few drops of brown medicinal juice onto his pristine white sleeve.

"Brother Hang!" Gu Lan didn’t understand why Rong Heng was here, but called out joyfully nonetheless.

"Brother——!"

Before the two could react, the little girl who had called Gu Lan handsome brother during the day peeked out from inside the house, exclaimed in delight upon seeing Wei Chengyuan, and pounced over.

But Wei Chengyuan avoided her with a face full of indifference.

"Don’t shout randomly." The man’s voice was deep and cold.

He turned around, his gaze became gentle as water, looking at Gu Lan and asking, "Lanlan, is this the maid of the house?"

Gu Lan: ... That’s your sister.

Rong Heng frowned slightly, looked at Gu Lan, and then gently repeated Wei Chengyuan’s words:

"Lan, Lan?"

What came naturally from Wei Chengyuan’s mouth held a kind of indescribable tenderness when uttered by Rong Heng.

Gu Lan, somewhat disdainfully, said, "Isn’t he calling this little girl?"

Rong Heng remembered that Wei Nannan’s real name was indeed Wei Lan.

Wei Nannan’s eyes widened, then her mouth opened, and tears burst forth abruptly:

"Wah——! Brother doesn’t recognize me anymore!"

All three frowned at the same time, with Gu Lan covering her ears, asking in frustration, "Brother Hang, why are you here?"

"Why are you here?" Rong Heng countered.

Wei Chengyuan also found Wei Lan’s whimpering quite noisy; he remained silent, looking serious and fierce.

Then, the man stared coldly at Wei Lan and said heavily, "Stop crying, you’re disturbing Lanlan."

The little girl cried even harder, utterly baffled as to why her brother didn’t recognize her after just one trip: "But I’m Lanlan!"

Finally, Rong Heng, who was upset by the commotion, furrowed his brow, threw away the medicine spoon, stood up, and walked over to Wei Lan, his expression as cold as ever.

He looked at Wei Lan but didn’t say a word.

The little girl looked at Rong Heng, and after a few seconds, suddenly stopped sobbing and making noise.

She glanced at Rong Heng’s handsome and icy face, then at Gu Lan, lastly at Wei Chengyuan, and softly said, "Now Nannan has three handsome brothers, Nannan will be good and not cry anymore."

Gu Lan was dumbfounded.

Such a young girl, actually subdued by Rong Heng’s charm? How did she not foresee this?

She really wanted to warn Wei Nannan not to approach the protagonist or she’d become very unfortunate!

Soon, a wave of exhaustion hit, as Gu Lan had been searching for Shiqi all night; seeing Rong Heng now, she completely relaxed.

Rong Heng began to speak lightly, as if explaining to Gu Lan: "I was passing by and this kid clung to me."

Gu Lan closed her eyes in weariness, murmuring, "I was clung to by this adult... Brother Hang, he is Consort Qian’s little lover Yuan, who brought people to retaliate against me last night, but now, it seems accidentally, got beaten silly by me.

You’re skilled in medicine, check if he can still be saved."

After saying this, she crossed her arms, leaned over the stone table in the courtyard, closed her eyes, and peacefully fell asleep.

The small courtyard was filled with the scent of the medicine brewed by Rong Heng, making her feel at ease.

Yuan?

The initial speculation became reality. Since Wei Chengyuan is Yuan, then Zhen Yuan really was wrongly accused.

Rong Heng opened his lips but didn’t wake her.

Gu Lan appeared relatively clean, yet she exuded a strong scent of blood, a smell he was all too familiar with and knew what it signified.

Wanting to know what happened, he had to direct his inquiry towards Wei Chengyuan.

However, Wei Chengyuan couldn’t answer him at the moment.

The two men stared at each other for a while, and then Wei Chengyuan coldly stood by Gu Lan’s side and said, "With me here, don’t think about doing anything to my brother."

He had completely mistaken Gu Lan for Wei Lan.

Rong Heng rolled his eyes; why would he want to do anything to Gu Lan?

But as for Wei Chengyuan’s details... After sending the little girl home the other day, he had already found out about Wei Chengyuan’s identity, staying at the Wei Family today was also to wait for him to show up.

"She is not your brother." Rong Heng clenched his fist and said coldly.

"Yes! Lanlan is my brother!" Wei Chengyuan asserted firmly, more resolute and fiercer than the little girl beside him.
