You Are My Greater Picture

"What do you mean?" The man tilted his head, his gaze defiant, a wicked smile playing on his lips.

As he tilted his head, Gu Wanning caught a glimpse of his neck beneath his high collar and...

"It means you're not worthy." Gu Wanning's smile was playful.

Woman dressed as a man

"Is it fun?"

She saw it: the "man" in front of her had no Adam's apple!

It's still very hot in the late summer heat, yet he's wearing a high-necked shirt, which looks odd.

Moreover, his voice sounded strained and unnatural.

Since Gu Wanning had already raised suspicions, and considering the pierced earlobe on his ear, and taking into account his height and build, what else was there to be unsure about?

She's just a young girl, yet she's trying to harass respectable women.

Gu Wanning didn't know how to comment.

However, if the other party is indeed from the Southern Border delegation, then the King of Southern Border is quite bold.

Deliberately deceiving someone—is this a sign of disrespect?

Perhaps Xu Weibei really has a chance to conquer the Southern Border.

The "man," clearly not expecting to be exposed, immediately became enraged. "Nonsense! Who's the woman?"

But she didn't want to; because she was anxious, her voice changed, becoming closer to her original female voice.

Everyone around her felt embarrassed for her.

Gu Wanning said with a half-smile, "Little sister, next time you're pretending, don't get so close to me."

Then she glanced at the other person and left.

The girl, completely exposed, stopped pretending and stomped her foot, saying, "You're not worthy! You're the one who's not worthy to be the woman of the Marquis of Yingchuan!"

Gu Wanning had already reached the door when she heard this, so she turned around and smiled.

So she was a love rival?

She underestimated her opponent.

However, she really didn't think Xu Weibei would be interested in this strange little girl.

Xu Weibei had a peculiar taste and took a liking to himself.

But clearly, he and the girl in front of him were not on the same path.

At least for now, Xu Weibei still prefers his own kind of characters.

Gu Wanning didn't have time to argue with her, because she had more important things to do.

During their confrontation, Gu Wanning recalled a detail she had overlooked yesterday.

Chapter 255 You Are My Big Picture

"Something's not right here." Gu Wanning sat in her Third Concubine's clinic for a while, waiting until all the patients had left before speaking.

"What's wrong?" Third Concubine asked while washing her hands.

After finishing her work, she wanted to talk to Gu Wanning and also change the prescription for her First Concubine.

Morning sickness is truly agonizing for pregnant women and doctors alike.

This isn't an illness, but it's harder to treat than an illness. It has no pattern, and there's hardly any specific medicine. You can only try different treatments based on the individual's condition.

"I was referring to the Marquis. The Marquis has had a problem since childhood; I understand it to be congenital eunuchism," Gu Wanning said. "Logically speaking, shouldn't the Marquis's build and voice be more feminine? And shouldn't he have such a prominent Adam's apple?"

And damn sexy, like an impeccable male protagonist from a manga.

Did the hormones fail to work in him?

It seems like only his private parts were affected; otherwise, he's more manly than anyone else?

How come this even has precision attack capabilities?

"This matter," the Third Concubine said, "I've thought about it before. I suspected the Marquis was impotent, but I wasn't sure, precisely because the Marquis hadn't shown it."

"What exactly happened? Could someone have framed him?" Gu Wanning asked anxiously.

She always felt that something was about to emerge, but it was shrouded in a thick, unyielding fog, making it impossible to see clearly.

"I've thought about it too. But I'm not knowledgeable enough to figure out how to cause the Marquis's current predicament," the Third Concubine said honestly. "I think the key is to find Physician Bian. But for some reason, Physician Bian hasn't returned yet. Should you ask the Marquis about this?"

"Gao Lan mentioned this to me," Gu Wanning said thoughtfully. "He said that Physician Bian encountered something on his way back."

Then Xu Weibei sent a great traitor named Zhou Jingyuan to invite someone.

Gao Lan, that gossipy old man, also told Gu Wanning about the grudges and love-hate relationship between Zhou Jingyuan and Li Xueyin.

Gao Lan said, "Madam, we don't know whether others are friends or foes, but if you were to encounter Linglong and Li Xueyin, you would certainly stay far away from them."

One is insane, and the other was never a good person to begin with.

"Then let's wait until he returns," the Third Concubine said cautiously. "Actually, I could show it to the Marquis, but it's a bit awkward, and I'm afraid Marquis might misunderstand and think you're the one who cares about this, so..."

"Yes," Gu Wanning said, "I can't ask about this matter; I can only talk to you about it privately."

Alas, Xu Weibei would never truly believe that she didn't care.

The closest of relatives can be husband and wife.

There are some things that, even for those as close as they are, cannot be mentioned.

"I didn't think too much about it, I was just curious," Gu Wanning said. "Don't mention it in front of the Marquis. I'll subtly ask Gao Lan later when Physician Bian will be back."

"Um."

Gu Wanning helped her roll the small pills.

She had been in the clinic for less than an hour when Xu Weibei arrived.

"What's wrong?" Seeing the sweat on his nose, clearly indicating his anxiety, Gu Wanning stood up and asked.

"Are you alright?" Xu Weibei didn't answer, but instead asked her.

"What's wrong with me?" Gu Wanning asked with a smile, then realized what was going on. "Have you heard about the conflict I had with someone at the general store?"

"The King of Southern Border is incredibly audacious, daring to have his daughter impersonate his son to mock us," Xu Weibei gritted his teeth. "And he even came looking for trouble with you. I just beat them all up to avenge you."

Gu Wanning: "..."

Is it really that simple and crude?

And although the other party spoke rudely, she was a woman...

"Hey, you hit their princess too?"

"What, do I have to differentiate between men and women when I'm standing up for you?" Xu Weibei said, "I've hit them all."
