I became the God Brother of the Regent King after Transmigration!-Chapter 196 - 134: We’re All Girls

"What exactly is your relationship with Rong Heng?"

"Everyone has their own secrets," Nian Xia said with a smile, her gaze lowering slightly, frowning, "Young Master, don’t you have any?"

Gu Lan said, "But your secret looks more mysterious, Market Master, why do you always wear a mask?"

As she spoke, she used her drunkenness to press Nian Xia directly onto the soft couch.

"What really lies behind the Market Master’s mask?"

Nian Xia was momentarily dazed by Gu Lan’s actions, as if sensing something.

Then she regained her seductive demeanor, turned her head, and with a breath fragrant like orchids said, "You two go out first, and make sure no one disturbs the springtime moment between me and the Young Master."

"Zheng——"

The Great Compassion Mantra suddenly stopped.

"Yes."

"Wait," Nian Xia glanced at Zipei, "Take this gentleman away too."

Du Ruo first helped Zipei up and threw him into another room, then supported the drunken Qing Dai out, whispering:

"In such a perfect moment, when every second is worth a thousand gold pieces, you’re playing the Great Compassion Mantra. Are you trying to anger the Market Master? Forget it, I’ll never let you drink again."

Qing Dai, not yet sober, clutching his qin, loudly asked, "What... Du Ruo, what did you say? The Market Master is meeting a guest?"

Du Ruo said, "Ah, you don’t understand, do you. Young Master Gu is so young and handsome, how could he be compared to ordinary playboys? It’s normal for the Market Master to be moved."

As the two were talking, a dark figure fell, and You Ying hurriedly returned, his eyes narrowing slightly, "What are you two talking about? The Market Master is with the Young Master..."

Du Ruo bowed in greeting, her red lips slightly parted, "Yes, they’re in the room now. Why, Guard You, are you worried?"

You Ying’s expression changed, his dark eyes instantly turning red, wanting to rush in, but Du Ruo stepped forward to block his way:

"Last time you ruined the Market Master’s good thing with Young Master Zhao. The Market Master said that today no one can disturb her, otherwise, you’ll be expelled from Magpie Workshop."

You Ying’s steps halted.

He had just heard Du Ruo’s words: Young Master Gu was young and handsome, and Nian Xia had taken a liking to her.

He stared intently at the closed box door, gritted his teeth, and then left like the wind.

Du Ruo watched his back and murmured, "You say You Ying is strange, he likes the Market Master, and won’t let her meet guests. But when the Market Master gave him a chance before, he didn’t take it."

Qing Dai thought for a while, drunkenly saying, "That’s because he sees the Market Master as a person."

Du Ruo was stunned.

Yes, if he didn’t truly care, who would see girls from the brothel as people?

Inside the box.

Nian Xia, although pinned down by Gu Lan, didn’t show a hint of panic, even revealing a mischievous look in her deep eyes.

Gu Lan felt something was wrong.

Last time, she had also pinned down Nian Xia, who was eager to explain to Rong Heng.

But this time...

"Is the Young Master wondering why I’m not at all nervous?"

Nian Xia lazily picked up Young Master Gu’s vermilion hair ribbon, her slender fingers wrapping around the back of her head, pulling slightly.

The ribbon untied, Gu Lan’s hair fell down.

The tresses casually lay on the moon-white robe, contrasting with the ink-like eyes, exquisite and bright. Her handsome features made Nian Xia’s breath catch slightly.

"Alas... if Rong Heng didn’t take you as... I really would want to step in and steal love."

Gu Lan had a bad premonition, frowned, "What does the Market Master mean by this?"

It couldn’t be that just by releasing her hair, she’d be recognized as female.

Nian Xia glanced at the wine on the table, saying smoothly:

"Here is a brothel, so when I just told you that there’s no desire in your eyes for me, it wasn’t just a compliment to your character, but also because... Young Master, even if you like men and have no interest in women, this drug meant for men won’t lose its effect, will it?"

Drug?

Gu Lan looked at her, her breath hitched.

Having drunk a lot, she wasn’t intoxicated but was somewhat tipsy.

The next moment, while she was in a daze, Nian Xia suddenly pushed her forcefully, reversing their positions.

For the first time in this life, Young Master Gu was pinned down by a woman.

Nian Xia reached out and gently patted Gu Lan’s "chest muscles."

Gu Lan was completely dumbfounded, while Nian Xia buried her head into Gu Lan’s neck, inhaling lightly, "Sister, you smell quite good too."

The Young Master completely sobered up, feeling a chill as if she lost another layer of disguise.

She immediately jumped down from Nian Xia, sat on the seat farthest from her, and tidied up her hair: "That..."

Nian Xia looked at her reaction, her beautiful eyes falling on Gu Lan’s "completely flat" hemline, and said: "Young Master, the wine you just drank was added with a significant tonic, quite a lot actually. Even an eunuch should be standing at this point."

She exaggerated a bit, but as they say, the crude words are often true, right?

Gu Lan looked down at her own unwavering belt.

She thought she should have switched to one with a mechanism!

"I... isn’t it okay if I don’t stand!" Gu Lan forcibly explained, "You, you, you, why would a girl like you give me such a drug?"

Nian Xia coughed lightly: "It’s okay, I have the antidote."

Gu Lan: "What if I go wild, you can’t fight me off, can you?"

Nian Xia’s eyes were bright, playfully teasing: "Young Master Gu isn’t that kind of person, right? Even if you were, that’s just perfect for me. To have a spring breeze tryst with a genius like you is actually quite a nice thought."

Gu Lan: "..."

Seeing her so dejected, Nian Xia comforted her: "Young Master, you took the wrong medicine, so you’ll be a bit hot-tempered. Here, have some tea. We’re all girls here, don’t be afraid."

In all her years, Gu Lan had never been coaxed like a child before. She carefully felt it and indeed found her chest burning slightly.

Resigned, she closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and drank several sips of tea in quick succession, suddenly feeling a chill on her nose.

Gu Lan rubbed it with the back of her hand, then widened her eyes.

——She had actually gotten a nosebleed.

Nian Xia turned to fetch a handkerchief and brought two basins of water. Watching Young Master Gu flusteredly wiping the nosebleed, she suddenly recalled things from her childhood, smiling even more brilliantly.

The child Wu likes is truly adorable.

However, Wu probably doesn’t know yet...

Nian Xia glanced down at her own hand, lost in thought.

Hmm,

This texture—

The Young Master’s chest muscles are quite firm, it must have been hard work.

Gu Lan barely managed to stop the nosebleed. Lifting her head, she asked in frustration: "Where’s the antidote?"

Nian Xia said leisurely: "That antidote is for men. I’m afraid it might harm you. The nosebleed will stop soon, Young Master doesn’t need to worry, this tonic won’t harm your body."

Gu Lan: ... Thank you.

After a moment, Young Master Gu, with two wads of tissue stuffed in her nostrils, sat silently in the distance, facing off against Nian Xia.

"Market Master, what made you start suspecting me?"

Could it be that Nian Xia had also seen Gu Chengluan back in the day? Noticed the similarity in male attire?

"If Young Master doesn’t mind, just call Nian Xia ’sister’."

Gu Lan tilted her head, snorted lightly, and said irritably: "I won’t call you that."

Nian Xia couldn’t help but say: "If only Rong Heng were half as cute as you, I wouldn’t have to worry about him never making a friend and ending up lonely."

Hearing this, Gu Lan felt a tremble in her heart, suddenly feeling as if she grasped something, yet unable to pinpoint it.

"Actually, I sensed it the last time Young Master pinned me down." Nian Xia explained.

Sensed...

Can someone really sense that?

"And this time, your—" Nian Xia extended her hand, pointing at Gu Lan’s belt, "It seems a lot bigger. I’ve never seen anything grow so much in just over a month, besides, this thing is quite uncomfortable."

"Uncomfortable isn’t the right word?" Gu Lan thought to herself, she specifically chose a new belt for that uncomfortable feeling.

"But it doesn’t move, Young Master. No one understands men like the women in a brothel, but, Young Master, you’re the most unique person I’ve ever met. I’ve seen girls dressed as men come to Magpie Workshop, but compared to you, they were all just messing around."

Gu Lan: What’s the point of complimenting her professionalism now?

Nian Xia saw she was about to explode, and chuckled, looking like an enchanting spirit.

"Don’t worry, I won’t tell Rong Heng."

Gu Lan suspiciously asked: "Why, aren’t you working for Rong Heng?"

A glint of sadness flashed in Nian Xia’s eyes as she softly spoke: "Rong Heng hates being lied to. It was hard for him to make a friend like you. If he finds out you’ve been lying to him all along, your friendship might crumble, and he’d seal himself away again."

Gu Lan frowned: "But you’re still working for him after all."

Nian Xia said: "If Young Master doesn’t believe me, I can tell you a secret."

With that, she raised her hand and took off her mask.

Gu Lan stared at her unblinkingly, then widened her eyes.
