Rong Heng and Wu Cheng flinched when they heard what Rong Qiu had just said. They rarely saw him got angry, so they could only keep their silence. After that, they didn't dare to talk anymore. No matter what, Rong Qiu was still Rong Heng's father and Wu Cheng's master. They needed to respect him.

"Aunt Yue is Yao Ling's grandmother..." Rong Qiu finally answered with the truth.

"WHAT?!" Rong Heng and Wu Cheng asked at the same time. "GRANDMOTHER?!"

Did he think that they would believe in his nonsense? His father must have been exaggerating everything! They didn't want to talk and make Rong Qiu angry once again but how could they shut their mouths when they heard such a piece of juicy news ah~!

Of course, they needed to throw him with a few important questions...

"Father! How could it be possible?! Aunt Yue is still so young!" Rong Heng exclaimed. They had heard about this matter from the rumor at first, but Rong Heng met her when he visited Rong Qiu at the Crescent Lake back then and understood that it wasn't just a rumor --- she even looked younger than Rong Qiu ah~!

"Yes, Master. She was so young... How could she become Yao Ling's grandmother at such a young age? Yao Ling seems to be only a few years younger than Young Master." Wu Cheng said at the same time.

"I have never heard that she has a daughter! Don't make an imaginary woman just to lie to us!" Rong Heng frowned in displeasure and couldn't help but feel hurt because he felt that Rong Qiu keep lying to him.

Rong Qiu looked at them in disdain. He was also tired of being accused over and over again ah~! He felt like pulling out his hair in frustration. Did they think that he was a liar? He didn't believe in all that at first too, alright? Besides, was there really a need for him to lie?!

*Sigh*

When he thought back of his reaction, he couldn't really blame them. "Didn't you remember what I said? She had a certain power and it made her able to keep retaining her youth even though she was far older than me," Rong Qiu explained.

Rong Heng and Wu Cheng merely stared at him blankly. After that, they laughed out loud. Rong Heng said, "Please don't joke around anymore, Father!"

They didn't even believe in that 'so-called' power ah~!

Rong Qiu didn't know whether he should laugh or cry. He didn't know how to explain it anymore and he was rendered speechless by those two. He tiredly massaged his forehead. "Go... Go... Go... If you don't trust me, then there is no use for me to explain anything." After saying that, he relaxed his stance and closed his eyes while crossing his arms in front of his chest.

He gave up.

He was too lazy to talk to them.

Just let them laugh all they wanted ah~!

Rong Heng and Wu Cheng looked at each other, feeling guilty when they finally saw the depressed look on Rong Qiu's face. After all, they could see that he was being serious. But...

They could only sigh and relent --- maybe Rong Qiu really believed in that nonsense and they would pretend to believe in him as well, it was better than making Rong Qiu as sad as this.

"Father..."

"Master..."

They called him at the same time, trying to make him talk once more. They really felt like they were actually coaxing a little kid, but Rong Qiu didn't plan to give them an answer even after their coaxing had finished. Just let them guess where Yao Ling was coming from by themselves. 'Hmph!' He harrumphed inwardly.

They didn't trust him anyway.

The two became helpless and continue coaxing him, "Tell us more about it!"

"Yes, tell us the full story, Father!"

"No!" Rong Qiu refused straight away.

"Sorry... Sorry... We will listen to you..."

"Yes, we will not make a single sound..."

"We promise..."

"Really..."

"We believe in you... but it's just too weird..."

"Unbelievable!"

"Surreal..."

They tried to cajole the angry Rong Qiu so that he would continue telling the story. Somehow, they felt even more guilty when they looked at Rong Qiu's defeated face.

Rong Qiu opened his eyes and asked, "Are you sure that you will trust me? I already told you that the truth would be really bizarre! If you don't believe, I also have no choice --- at least, I already give you an explanation. Believe it or not, it depends on yourself."

"Trust! Trust! We will trust you!" They answered at the same time.

However, whether they really trusted him or not, Rong Qiu didn't know. At least, he would tell them the full story and let them think by themselves. He wasn't going to beg for them to believe in him. It was easy to prove it --- he could just call Yao Ling and let her show her power a little bit, but he didn't want that.

The power should remain a secret between them.

Besides, they knew that he wasn't a liar, so why didn't they trust him?! That was the reason he felt angry the most!

"So... where's the mother?" Rong Heng really wanted to know this part and Rong Qiu still didn't give him a definite answer.

"I will get back to it later because it means I have to tell another story in detail..." Rong Qiu said.

Rong Heng and Wu Cheng looked at each other and nodded their heads in agreement.

"This story is even crazier than before... so both of you should sit down before you fall down after listening to the rest of the story..." Rong Qiu gave them a piece of advice in a serious tone. Hey! He had already told them from the start that he wasn't joking.

"Before I started... Please remember... I lost my memory before so... please forgive me..." Rong Qiu said sadly in a low voice. He added something at the last part inwardly, 'I didn't mean to lie to you...'

Lost his memory?

The more they listened to Rong Qiu's words, the more they thought that there must have been something wrong with his brain ah~! They had never known that he had once lost his memories... So, when did it happen?! But... they didn't dare to ask a question.

The duo could only follow his advice and wanted to see what kind of shocking news that they could get. It was even crazier than the magical power?! Hah! They honestly doubted that.

But they didn't know... that it was indeed crazier than that magical power things...

Rong Qiu started to tell the story from the beginning --- where the Bei Yue planned to run away from their hometown and find another place to live. Then, they fall to the Han Emperor's hands. Rong Heng and Wu Cheng felt that it was weird for Rong Qiu to tell the story from a third-person point of view but they continued listening to him because honestly, the story was quite interesting.

However, after they listened to his full story... they felt like everything was a surreal mix of fact and fantasy.

What did they just hear?!

The real Rong Qiu was dead and he became the replacement? A similar-looking Bei Yue person?

The duo gaped at him without blinking due to the surprise.
