I became the God Brother of the Regent King after Transmigration!-Chapter 403 - 310: A Thrilling Afternoon Tea

Nan Shiqi came to the Capital City under the guise of a member of the Zhou Family, leading the Zhou Family caravan, to celebrate Old Madam Gu’s birthday.

Here, she was not Nan Shiqi, the spy of the Dark Hall at the Southern Border, but rather Young Master Gu’s little cousin—Zhou Mianmian.

The Zhou Family arrived a few days early, and since they were family, Shiqi, under Madam Zhou’s arrangement, stayed in the courtyard next to Step Lotus Hall in the Marquis Mansion.

Inside the study, Gu Lan was finalizing the guest list for the birthday banquet, with Shiqi and Zijin accompanying her on either side.

These two, one was the Zhou Family cousin who hardly ever got to visit the Capital City, and the other, the big maid who had served Young Master Gu since childhood in the Marquis Mansion—rumored to be a bed servant type.

Gu Lan extended her hand and murmured, "Thirsty." 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Zijin was about to peel a crystal grape for the Young Master when Shiqi, relying on her martial arts skills, had already poured a cup of tea and brought it to Gu Lan’s lips.

"Brother Lan, please have some tea."

Gu Lan silently took a sip of the tea and then accepted the grape from Zijin, causing her mouth to fill with both sweetness and bitterness.

"Zijin, you’ve been serving here for half a day, are you tired, do you want to go rest for a bit; Mianmian, since you entered the mansion, have you not yet visited Old Madam, do you need to go and see her?" Gu Lan said softly.

Strangely, sandwiched between these two, it clearly felt like autumn had just arrived, so why was the room so cold?

Perhaps, it was an illusion.

Gu Lan shivered.

The next moment, Zijin gently draped a thin blanket over her, saying tenderly, "Young Master has been reading for a long time, you should rest a bit, if you tire yourself out, this servant will be heartbroken."

Goosebumps dropped all over Gu Lan, thinking to herself that she wasn’t used to how polite Zijin was being today.

Her gaze paused, as she noticed that Nan Shiqi’s eyes held a few inexplicable grievances when looking at her...

Zijin seemed to sense something, blinking and smilingly asked, "Is this the first time the cousin has been to the Capital City? My Young Master is a bit busy today, shall I have a servant accompany you for a walk?"

"My Young Master" was emphasized slightly in her words.

Nan Shiqi forced a smile, dressed in a light blue long skirt, her appearance delicate and heroic, and hearing Zijin’s words, her cheeks reddened slightly, yet she calmly met Zijin’s gaze, saying neither servile nor overbearing:

"Mianmian came to the Capital City when she was young and has met Brother Lan before, but my memories of the Capital City are indeed faint, however, Mianmian does not want a servant to accompany her, but would like Sister Zijin to accompany."

Zijin thought, since she couldn’t get the Young Master, now she’d take her away with her, fine, she’d do as she wished.

She pursed her red lips, laughing without meaning it:

"Since the cousin requests it, how could I not comply, I’ll accompany you to tour the Capital City, where would you like to start? Before, I accompanied the Young Master to East Third Street, the sweets there are quite good, the Young Master likes them the most..."

Gu Lan couldn’t help but say, "When did you accompany—"

Zijin’s murderous look shot over, making Gu Lan feel a chill, and she swallowed her words back forcefully.

Oh no, women are terrifying.

The third day without Rong Heng,

I miss him.

Gu Lan listened, heart pounding, to the dialogue between the two women, finally realizing that this was not her imagination.

Stuck between them, it truly was cold!

Gu Lan abruptly threw off the thin blanket, set down the teacup, and explained word by word:

"Don’t worry, we’re all one of our own!"

Zijin queried, "What does the Young Master mean..."

Nan Shiqi asked puzzledly, "Brother Lan, what do you mean..."

The two exchanged glances, and both let out a cold humph.

"Stop arguing, she knows I’m a woman, and she also knows I’m a woman!" Gu Lan said in one breath.

Moments later, after Young Master Gu explained, under the coercion of the two women, she took both of them for a stroll.

On the surface, it was Gu Lan accompanying two beautiful women for a stroll, living up to the name of a dashing Young Master.

In reality, it was three young girls leisurely shopping.

Shiqi, who had disguised as a man for many years, was a Marquis Mansion maid, neither often went shopping, and Gu Lan... she could do everything, but was not very good at being a girl, and Zijin and Shiqi both noticed it and wanted to take her shopping with them.

The three spent their time shopping along the way, luckily Gu Lan was wealthy, and her favorite thing to do was spend money on girls; any beautiful jewelry they found was swept unscrupulously into Shiqi and Zijin’s pockets.

The shopkeepers on East Third Street were happier today than during the New Year.

After half a day of shopping, the large and small bags they bought were thrown into the hands of Wei Chengyuan and Zipei, who struggled to keep up with them, almost unable to hold on.
