"Uncle Xiao, you see that we are quite familiar now, so can you tell me your real name? Also, don't call me 'little girl' anymore! I didn't tell you that my name was Gao Ran when we first met! If you don't want to call me by my name directly, then you can call me 'Ran'er'!"

After speaking, Gao Ran winked at the little uncle twice with a flattering face.

Seeing that she could make inches so shamelessly, Uncle Xiao immediately looked away with disgust. But he didn't want his disdain to make her even more wishful thinking that he had acquiesced to her request. So, he deliberately followed her example, and shot back with a slight mockery: "No! I still like to call you 'little girl'! Or do you prefer me to call you 'girl'?"

When Gao Ran heard the word "girl", she couldn't help frowning, and for a moment, she thought she was having auditory hallucinations - she thought she heard Zhao Yi's old man calling her!

"Don't!" she immediately refused without thinking!

But then, she realized that she should not be tough on the little uncle, so she had to take the initiative to take a step back and compromise with him: "Alas, okay, since you like to call me 'little girl', then you can call it." But just don't call me 'girl'! Because your voice is too similar to Master's! I almost thought Master was coming!"

Speaking of this, Uncle Xiao and Gao Ran couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

And Uncle Xiao's reaction inadvertently deepened the moment when Gao Ran was stunned just now, and the "possibility" that he thought of in his heart......

In order to verify her conjecture, she pretended to be a little gossip and tentatively said: "Hehe, little uncle, I found out, look closely...... You and Master's eyebrows...... It looks pretty alike!

"Also, you seem to be a little disappointed that Master never mentioned you to me...... You care about him......? Are you his brother?

"I'm not talking about the 'brother of the year', but of the brother of the brother!

"Oh yes, the half-sibling kind, that's fine—— otherwise, how could your two voices be so similar?

"Although my hearing is indeed average, after all, I have been by Master's side for so many years, and I will not easily be confused if it is his voice or not!

"Tsk, to have such a similar voice, if you are not related...... I really don't believe it!"

After hearing this, Uncle Xiao already knew Gao Ran's intention to test him.

Although since the two of them met, the development of things has deviated more and more from his original expectations - Gao Ran always gave him one surprise after another, which made him a little overwhelmed! But he didn't seem to be disgusted by her over-acumen, but began to use her to reconcile and improve the relationship between him and Zhao Yi.

But after thinking about it, with Gao Ran's character that he knew, if he showed his thoughts too obviously, he was afraid that she would take advantage of this to ask him for more benefits.

After thinking about it, he felt that he should first warn her with a little annoyance, so that she could be jealous of him. And if she is jealous of him, then even if she is indeed suspicious, most of them dare not continue to investigate too presumptuously. Then naturally there was no need to worry that she would think further - it was the last thing he wanted to be noticed by her!

Thinking of this, Uncle Xiao immediately pretended to be a little unhappy and warned her slightly threateningly: "Little girl, if you are too curious, you won't live long!"

didn't think that after Gao Ran was warned by him like this, although he didn't take the initiative to get close to him as before, he didn't show the slightest fear of him. She just looked at him thoughtfully, as if she was weighing something?

"Little Uncle," when Gao Ran finally spoke, he knew that the trade-off in her heart just now must have made a decision......!

"Well, when—all that I know about Master's past, and everything I've known about you since I met you—all of this has accumulated in my mind, I can't help but feel that there must be something to do with it!

"I think that on this point, anyone who has a heart, but who knows too much about the fragmentary past between you, if he is willing to scrutinize it a little, it is not difficult for him to think of all these things that I can think of.

"So, you can't blame me for knowing too much, if you want to blame, you can only blame yourself for leaving too many clues! Even now, even if it's just you, there are still too many flaws left in your words and deeds! So, even if I don't want to care, it's hard for me not to let them accumulate in my heart and finally prompt me to discover those possible truths! So, you really can't blame me!

"But don't worry, I won't threaten you or anything with this! After all, this matter is very involved, and I don't think I can afford to betray and threaten you and Master. I'm so afraid of death! I'm even more afraid that life is better than death!"

Speaking of this, Gao Ran deliberately glanced at Uncle Xiao. But he found that even though she had said everything about this, he still looked at her with the same disdain as ever, and she knew that what she said just now didn't say anything he cared about at all!

Gao Ran couldn't help but smile bitterly, thought about it, and decided to make his true intentions clear! As for whether he would believe it after listening to it, that was his choice. - Big deal, if he doesn't believe it, then at most she will just continue to maintain the status quo, and there will be no real loss.

"However, if Uncle Xiao is willing to believe it, even if he doesn't necessarily really believe my words, it definitely shows that I must be of use to him in this matter!

"If that's the case, then I'll have to make good use of my value!"

After making a decision in his heart, Gao Ran ignored Uncle Xiao's cold reaction, and continued to say to himself: "Okay! I'll tell you directly! Uncle Xiao, I think you should also know that about two years ago, Uncle Shi accepted a girl named 'Gao Qiao'......"

Hearing her mention this, Uncle Xiao's eyes finally changed slightly.

When Gao Ran saw it, he knew that she finally said something that could make him a little concerned!

So, she continued even more boldly: "Actually, she is my personal maid. However, my aunt and uncle refused to take her as an apprentice, so I think that my aunt and uncle would probably only teach her medical skills, teach her to save lives, and not teach her poison arts, or her own unique secret arts—let alone teach Qiao'er the unique internal skills of her own sect!

"That is what you can only practice after taking the unique secret medicine of this sect and becoming a disciple of this sect. - I don't think my uncle and aunt will easily violate this rule......

"So, although Qiao'er has the poison avoidance pill I gave her to protect her body, she is almost invincible, but after all, I have never let her learn any poison or martial arts that can defend herself, let alone teach her the unique internal skills of her own sect, so that she can better resist or alleviate the damage caused to her by the rare poison she may encounter......

"To be honest, I am inevitably a little worried about her safety...... I'm also afraid that my uncle and aunt will not know about her and me...... No, it should be said that I don't know the indirect relationship between her and Master because of me, and she won't treat Qiao'er well......

"After all, the reason why Uncle Shi accepted Qiao'er was because the people of my Heavenly Pavilion used some means against her...... That's what forced her to agree...... In the final analysis, Qiao'er was not voluntarily accepted by her uncle......

"And the reason why I deliberately avoided my uncle and aunt at that time and asked Tiange to come forward for me was because Master was also by my side at that time...... I think Uncle Xiao should be able to understand my inconvenience, right?"

Uncle Xiao listened to Gao Ran's confession, and his expression changed several times. Some of what she said he knew, and some of which he didn't learn until now!

However, compared to learning that Gao Ran had a close relationship with Tiange and could drive Tiange's forces to act for her at will—compared to this, what surprised him the most was that Gao Ran was able to speculate on his possible relationship with Zhao Yi based on the little things she knew about them, as well as some personal grievances between Ye Yu (that is, Gao Ran's "uncle", his wife) and the two of them......

"She is far more astute than she is! Even if it were me, I would never have been able to do it to her level when I was her age!"

Thinking of this, Uncle Xiao didn't dare to promise Gao Ran anything easily for a while! He didn't want to make any conclusions about her too easily.
