Chapter 73: The Truth is Revealed (1/2)
Pei Rumo immediately went into the study room after speaking and sat on his chair. He pointed at one of the chairs, indicating for Bai Luochu to enter and take a seat.
When Bai Luochu looked at how the First Prince was behaving, she knew that Pei Rumo must have already predicted that she would come today and had been waiting for her. His plan was truly meticulous. He was obviously the one who ignored all the consequences and exposed the fact to Pei Wuchen. Right now, he was even trying to be a kind person who was going to reveal everything to her. His plan to kill two birds with one stone was truly brilliant.
After Bai Luochu entered the study room, she closed the door and sat on the chair. She didn’t look like she was here to ask questions. Instead, she looked like she was going to explode at any moment.
“Am I the First Young Lady of the general’s residence? Am I also the Third Prince’s fiancée… Luo Chu?”
Bai Luochu went straight to the topic and wasn’t ambiguous at all.
Pei Rumo was already prepared and he provided a straightforward answer.
“Yes, that is right. The two of you are the same person.”
“Alright. About the reason why I appeared in the Bestial Battle Arena… Is it because of the engagement with the Third Prince?”
“Based on what you just said, that is indeed the case. The story behind this is truly a poetic love affair. Do you want to hear it?”
Pei Rumo gently waved his folding fan and didn’t seem to mind it. In fact, he truly wished for Bai Luochu to nod in agreement so that he could sell her this favor.
As expected, Bai Luochu didn’t disappoint Pei Rumo and immediately responded, “Since the First Prince is willing to spare some time from your busy schedule to tell this slave girl a story, it would be impolite for me to refuse. I will listen with all my heart.”
Bai Luochu spoke humbly but her tone was gradually turning impolite. She was getting really frustrated.
Pei Rumo told Bai Luochu everything without hesitation.
When Bai Luochu heard the whole story from Pei Rumo, she managed to guess the in and outs of the entire matter. When she saw that Pei Rumo had nothing much to say, she immediately asked to leave. After returning to her room, she started to make a plan and she was meticulous when she chose her every move. She wanted to plan out her course of action after learning about the truth.
