Gu Lan thought Rong Heng had finally realized he had been deceived and wanted to kill him.
The next moment, Rong Heng sharpened his knife by the creek and squatted down.
A few flashes of cold light, and he caught two lively fish.
"Don't just draw your sword without a word."
"Alright," Rong Heng picked up Gu Lan's Longquan sword, "I'll use the sword next time."
"..."
"——In short, it's like this: Marquis Gu didn't want to take a concubine, my mother got injured and can't have more children, the Marquis Mansion needs an heir, and my grandmother kept urging, so I was born and had to assume a male identity."
Gu Lan candidly revealed to Rong Heng the inside story that Marquis Gu had once told her.
When Gu Lan learned these reasons, apart from being angry about Wei Liuyu's harm to Zhou Wanqing, she didn't have much emotional reaction. But this time, when she told Rong Heng, she was impassioned, nearly in tears.
