Surprise! The villain is my brother, stay calm!

Lu Zhanxing felt that he had been gone for too long and went to the Heavenly Punishment Division to visit Mu Qingli with some embarrassment.

"You've worked so hard these years, but you really don't plan to get married and have children?"

Mu Qingli is a few years older than me, right?

But now he is still a handsome man, and his scholarly air has become more restrained.

Mu Qingli looked up from the documents and glanced at her: "If I wanted to get married, I wouldn't be alone now."

"I delayed you!"

Lu Zhanxing still felt a little guilty. He had teased him but was unable to give him a name.

"I don't blame you. It's my own choice. Ah Xing, let's go to the Marquis' Mansion tonight and reminisce about the past."

Now that things had come to this, Lu Zhanxing couldn't refuse anymore, so he nodded in agreement. As for whether the two of them would have that kind of intimate relationship, that would depend on the situation.

The night is silent, the moonlight shines down,

And Lu Zhanxing also arrived at the Yong'an Marquis Mansion.

In the room, the two sat opposite each other, and Huaguo and Huali served them fine wine and delicious food.

The two drank and talked about each other's experiences over the years.

The moon was high in the sky and both of them were a little drunk.

Seeing that Mu Qingli's cheeks were flushed and she kept saying that she missed her, Lu Zhanxing took the opportunity to pull Mu Qingli to the bed.

"You really miss me that much!" Lu Zhanxing just opened his collar.

But he held her hand, causing her to pause.

Suddenly, the world spun around, and the drunken atmosphere disappeared. Instead, he pressed her down, looking at her with a burning gaze that seemed to be smiling: "Ah Xing, how long do you want to keep this secret from me?"

"Wha...what?"

The ambiguous words were like a small stone hitting the surface of a lake, causing huge waves and leaving her at a loss.

Mu Qingli raised his hand and fondly stroked her still beautiful face, and finally touched her throat. There was no Adam's apple there, so the answer was obvious...

Lu Zhanxing's heart skipped a beat. Was his identity exposed?

"Ah Xing, no matter whether you are a man or a woman, I, Mu Qingli, only like you as a person, not your gender. Do you understand?"

Lu Zhanxing was silent for a long time, thinking in his heart, when was he exposed?

Shouldn't it?

Suddenly, her expression froze, and she turned over and suppressed him fiercely: "You didn't take the medicine?"

Mu Qingli knew that if her identity was exposed, she would definitely be angry. However, after so many years, was she still not worthy of her trust?

"I really didn't know it before, but I didn't want to be confused every time I made love with you, so I asked Huali to give me the universal antidote, and then..."

Even though he had never experienced love between men and women, he knew that the structures of men and women were different, so that time, he discovered her secret.

But he didn't dare to say it and could only continue to pretend that he didn't know.

He believed that one day his sincerity would be rewarded with her confession.

However, it has been more than 20 years, and Ling'er is about to get married, but she still refuses to confess. He has no choice but to expose it himself.

He wanted to tell her that he was completely trustworthy, and that he loved her and would stand firmly by her no matter whether she was a man or a woman.

Seeing that Lu Zhanxing remained silent and only looked at her coldly, Mu Qingli's expression suddenly tensed up and she hugged her in fear: "Don't be angry, I... I swear, I will never reveal your secret, never. If I reveal your secret, I will not die well..."

He kept swearing, and Lu Zhanxing looked at him deeply.

When she was found out she was a girl, she felt shocked, relieved, and a little unwilling. If she had kept it a secret for a few more years, she might have died. But now she could keep it a secret for the rest of her life.

She sat up and said nothing. She thought she could keep it secret forever, but it was finally exposed.

In fact, it doesn't matter if I'm exposed now. Even if my royal brother accuses me of deceiving the emperor, I still have a way out.

Ling'er is my escape route...

However, it was still a bit sudden to be exposed.

Seeing that she didn't say a word, Mu Qingli was even more at a loss: "I'm sorry, Ah Xing! I'm too selfish. I shouldn't have exposed your identity. Even if you want to kill me now, it's up to you. I just hope you don't hate me."

After a long while, Lu Zhanxing sighed, his tone somewhat melancholy: "I thought I could keep it a secret forever..."

Lu Zhanxing got off the bed, tidied his clothes, and then turned to the regretful Mu Qingli and said, "Although you discovered my identity, I am still a little happy that you were the first to find out. You should have guessed that Ling'er is your biological daughter. Your teaching of her over the years has not been in vain. She is very outstanding..."

Mu Qingli stared at the beloved in front of her in a daze, just like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples. The shock in her heart was far more profound than the ripples.

Originally, she just wanted to confirm whether the erotic dream she had when she was drunk that year was real.

But Huaguo said she didn't know about it, so he refused to confirm it.

Now that Lu Zhanxing has personally acknowledged that Ling'er is his biological daughter, the excitement in his heart cannot be described in words.

No wonder I felt so close to Ling'er the first time I met her, no wonder Ling'er is so smart, no wonder Ling'er is so beautiful...

Because this is the fruit of the union between him and Ah Xing.

Today, he finally got the answer to something that had puzzled him before.

I finally understood why Ah Xing always got angry with me from time to time. It turned out...it turned out that they had this kind of relationship...

He is Ling'er's biological father.

By the time he came to his senses, Lu Zhanxing had already left.

He wanted to chase her out, but Huali told him: "The prince said that you should not go to see her for a while. She wants to be quiet! Even if you go, she will not see you."

Then Huali asked in confusion: "Master, did you make the prince angry?"

Mu Qingli shook her head and sighed. Ah Xing was still angry after all.

At the same time, I also feel a little regretful. If I hadn't said it out loud, would these things have happened?

Although he had known this result, he still felt so lost and sad.

Lu Zhanxing hid in his own glass courtyard and refused to come out.

He didn't show up until Ling'er and Bai Yu's wedding day.

As Ling'er's adoptive father, Mu Qingli naturally had to attend.

His eyes were always following Lu Zhanxing, but she never even glanced at him. Mu Qingli was a little discouraged. How could she calm down?

Princess Showa and General Thunder got married.

The wedding was held with great ceremony.

The two newlyweds, dressed in bright red wedding gowns, were breathtakingly beautiful; they were truly a match made in heaven.

In order to show his love for Princess Zhaohe, Emperor Zhaoyuan directly announced that he would grant her Yongzhou as her fiefdom. Although she had no management rights, all annual taxes would belong to her.

This also means that Ling'er will never have to worry about food and clothing again.

On this day, Mu Qingli also gave all his wealth to his daughter.

He had said before that he would leave everything to Ling'er. Now that he knew she was his biological daughter, he wanted to give her everything.

Ling'er didn't expect her adoptive father to be so generous.

Unexpectedly, her father also transferred all the things in the space and all the external properties to her name.

Now, Ling'er can be said to be very rich.

The emperor's uncle, aunt, crown prince, aunt and uncle all presented generous gifts.

I feel so happy.

And Bai Yu finally got what he wanted, and from then on he had a lifelong partner.

Unfortunately... there is still a concubine who is in the way.

Bai Yu also knew that Ling'er could only tolerate the existence of this man named A Sheng for the sake of the people of the world.
