Chapter 309: A Strategy to Stall for Time

After hearing Sun Ge's explanation, Lin Ran understood what he meant, but he still felt a little strange.

"You are lying!"

Lin Ran looked at Sun Ge and said in a low voice, "Since it's His Majesty's order, it's treacherous of you to question the validity of it."

Hearing this, Sun Ge raised his eyebrows, as if his thoughts had been exposed.

However, before Lin Ran could continue questioning, Sun Ge smiled as if he had thought of something. "I've seen you so many times today that I forgot that you're an outsider!"

Lin Ran was stunned. "What do you mean? What does this have to do with me being an outsider?"

Sun Ge smacked his lips and didn't say anything, as if he didn't know how to explain. After a while, he casually said, "You won't understand even if I tell you. In short, you just have to know that in the Iron City, it's very normal to question His Majesty."

Lin Ran blinked in confusion.
