Li Ji waited for a moment, but nothing more came.
He couldn't help but ask.
"And then?"
Hua Manman looked utterly baffled and asked back, "And then what?"
Li Ji frowned. "That's it?"
Hua Manman nodded.
"Yes."
She found his reaction very strange.
'Logically, any normal person would be shocked and disbelieving upon hearing that I'm a woman disguised as a man.'
But the man before her was completely unfazed.
Li Ji had long known she was a woman through his Mind Reading Technique, so of course he wouldn't react strongly to what she had just said.
He asked patiently.
"What does this have to do with you running away?"
Hua Manman explained in a low voice, watching his expression for any change.
"I've actually always been a woman.
But because my grandfather was worried that the family title would have no heir,
he had me disguise myself as a man and be enfeoffed as the Princely Heir, with the identity of the eldest legitimate grandson of the Yu Royal Mansion.
