Lin Qingluo happily accepted the gift and invited the guests into her father's study for a private conversation.
When Wang Rong first heard Lin Qingluo's plan to build defensive fortifications, he was so shocked that his heart and lungs nearly stopped, and he almost stood frozen on the spot.
Luo Zhan was also stupefied, finding it hard to believe.
After a brief moment of shock, the two of them composed themselves and were deeply impressed by her foresight and her righteous and noble dedication to the country and her people.
"Little Qingluo, your Brother Zhan admires no one but you."
Luo Zhan said this again, with utmost sincerity.
"Miss Lin, on behalf of the people of Long City, I express our gratitude for your great kindness."
Wang Rong clasped his hands and respectfully bowed.
"Mr. Wang, I intend to build a strong defensive line at the border not only for the people of Long City but also for all the people along the eastern border area."
