Joke

"You owe me a favor," Shangguan Ru said with a serious look while Red Bat nodded from beside her as a show of support.

"I owe you more than just one favor," Gu Shenwei answered with just as seriously, and Han Fen nodded from beside him like a chicken pecking at rice.

Long Fanyun and Nie Zeng, who were standing guard at the door, looked a bit embarrassed but they couldn't leave until they were given the order to.

Shangguan Ru smiled. "I thought that your temperament would have changed after you played such a humiliating joke on Prince Duodun. It turns out that you still don't understand."

Gu Shenwei knew that she was making fun of him, but he had lost interest in cooperating years ago. "Anyway, it was your news that saved me from Duodun's trap."

"It's nothing. Don't mention it," Shangguan Ru replied in a noble and chivalric tone. "Even without my warning, you wouldn't have gone in, would you?"
