52. First arrival in Qingli Town

After the four of them had breakfast together in the inn, Gao Ran suggested that everyone should go separately: Qiao'er and Zhao Yi went to find an inn with three free rooms (if Zhao Yi didn't want to continue to live in a room with Gao Xi's two big men), while Gao Ran and Gao Xi went outside to take a casual stroll and familiarize themselves with the general environment of the town first. Everyone went their separate ways, and then went back to this inn before the evening to meet, and then moved their luggage to the new inn together.

"You girl, you really want to call your master?!Why don't I go shopping around and you go to the inn?!" Zhao Yi listened to Gao Ran's suggestion, and immediately didn't agree.

And Gao Ran obviously expected that Zhao Yi would definitely object, so after Zhao Yi protested, she said with confidence, "Hehe, I'll go! However, if I go to find it, then I will definitely arrange for you to live in the same room with Gao Xi! Don't forget, all the funds for this journey are paid by me! This financial power is in my hands! If I don't want to pay more...... Master, are you going to go to the roof of your room?!"

As he spoke, Gao Ran deliberately rubbed his arms twice with his hands in an exaggerated manner, "Huh-I feel cold when I think about it!Master, if you really want to sleep on the roof, you have to pay attention, don't get caught in the cold!"

In the past few months, Gao Ran has actually discovered that this Zhao Yi, if the four of them live in the same room together, he has no opinion, but if he wants to live in the same room with Gao Xi and two men, he will be awkward......

Although both of them are "old rivers and lakes" who have been in the rivers and lakes for a long time...... Gao Xi didn't care who he slept with, but Zhao Yi refused to share a room with Gao Xi alone - even if it was a bed or a bunk!

Although I don't know how this old naughty boy would mind so much in such a place where others look insignificant?! However, Gao Ran still understood it as "different personalities and different points of care" - of course, she also "naturally" kept Zhao Yi's quirk in her heart, thinking that if there was anything to "threaten" Zhao Yi in the future, she might be able to take advantage of his weakness!

It's just that she didn't expect that this weakness of his would be exploited by her so quickly!

And it worked......

"You! you ......"

Zhao Yi suddenly had a feeling of "dumb eating coptis - there is bitterness and can't be said"! "You" for a long time, but he didn't say the second word again, just stared at Gao Ran for a while...... But in the end, there was a compromise!

"Hmph! You girl, it's really my nemesis! That's it, the old man admits it! I'll listen to you!"

Although he was very unwilling in his heart, he still had to admit in the end that the chips Gao Ran used to threaten him did work - if it wasn't winter now, but other seasons, maybe he wouldn't have been threatened by Gao Ran, maybe he would have thrown down the sentence "Sleep on the roof, sleep on the roof, what's the big deal?!", and then turned around and walked away very stylishly......

It's a pity that it is now in the middle of winter, and the weather is freezing -- even though it has been going all the way south for more than three months, it has only just crossed the north-south "dividing line" of Yunxiang Country -- the Li River -- not far away, and has not yet reached the warm "south" of the four seasons like spring in the true sense......

"Haha, I'll just say that Master is a reasonable person! Hahaha...... Then, I'll work hard for you and Qiao'er! Then we'll see you in the evening!"

After that, Gao Ran smiled proudly unabashedly, but before Zhao Yi could say anything, she pulled Gao Xi early and ran away quickly!

She's not stupid! If she takes a step slower, who knows if Zhao Yi, the old man, will be stimulated by her smug smile and immediately stop doing it?!

Now that it's already enjoyable, it's a little bit of a sรจ in front of him, so let's take it when I see it!

Before he can react, hurry up!

"Miss, where are we going?!"

Gao Xi let Gao Ran pull him along the way, and even narrowed his steps in order to match her steps, so that he could always walk behind her and let her keep pulling him like now......

Although a little girl pulling a big boy to walk in front of the public like this will inevitably arouse some strange eyes from the people around her, Gao Xi doesn't mind at all, but enjoys the feeling of being pulled away by Gao Ran like this, and even hopes that she can notice that she is actually a little inappropriate later......

"Huh?!"

was asked by Gao Xi like this, Gao Ran was originally full of thoughts and only thought about "hurry up and go as far as you can", and then finally came to his senses.

"Hey...... Well...... this."

Gao Ran unconsciously let go of the hand that was holding Gao Xi, and instead rubbed his chin with interest.

While rubbing, he said as if he was talking to Gao Xi and as if he was talking to himself, "Hmm...... This Qingli town is the largest town in the south (the place south of the Li River in Yunxiang Kingdom), I have long heard that this Yunxiang country has Gao Dong in the north, and An Fu in the south, and the two families of 'Gao' and 'Dong' are in the capital, and the two families of 'An' and 'Fu' are in this Qingli Town. It is said that the heads of the two great families will only enter Beijing more formally on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month every year, and enter the palace together with the 'Gao' and 'Dong' families to participate in the palace banquet, and the rest of the time, they basically rarely enter Beijing. Most of their business is also in the south, as well as a few neighboring countries around the southern part of Yunxiang Kingdom, and the northern part of Yunxiang Kingdom has always been the world of the 'Gao' and 'Dong' families!"

"Hmm. Then, Miss means, you want to visit these 'An' and 'Fu' families?!"

Hearing Gao Ran say this, Gao Xi immediately sensed that she should want to meet the other two families of the four major families of Yunxiang Country - the "An" family and the "Fu" family.

"Well, I wanted to meet them...... However, it is not a direct visit to their mansion. It would be too abrupt to do that, and it would also lose our identity as a 'Gao family'......"

"So, what does Miss mean?"

"Go to the 'Liqing Academy'! Although Fu Wenhan, the eldest son of the Fu family...... That is, my brother-in-law, he went to the academy in the capital back then...... However, I heard that Fu Wenxuan, the second son of the Fu family, and An Yujie, the third lady of the An family, are both of the same age as me, and they did not go to the capital, but stayed in this Qingli Town, and went to the only first-class academy in this town, Liqing Academy......"

"Oh, I see!, Miss wants to go and meet the second son of the Fu family and the third miss of the An family?!"

"Well, since we're the same age, maybe we'll be able to talk about it more easily...... I thought that if I could become 'good friends' with them, they would be of great help to me in the future!"

Before she saw anyone, Gao Ran had already made clear the real purpose of her trip - she must be very active in becoming "good friends" with them, so as to prepare for her future career development as an adult and accumulate more useful contacts.

Gao Xi looked at Gao Ran's undisguised and obviously thinking about how to calculate people with a puzzled face, although his heart was full of doubts, but he didn't ask any more questions after all, just quietly watched Gao Ran turn around and leave excitedly. Then, when he came back to his senses, he quickly followed......

After not taking a few big steps, Gao Xi quickly caught up with Gao Ran, and then slowed down and walked side by side with her.

"No wonder Miss was so excited on the first day she came here......

The implication of Gao Xi's words is that with Gao Ran's previous style of acting, she is unlikely to go around on the first day she comes to a strange town, without caring about anything...... No wonder her interest in playing today is so high, she had to leave Zhao Yi and Qiao'er on the first day of her arrival, and only took Gao Xi to play alone - it turned out that she was a drunkard and didn't mean to drink!

"Hehe, hey, you've been with me for so long, don't you know my temperament?! You know, I don't like the kind of casual play that doesn't have any travel goals or plans!"

"Yes! Miss's words, Xi remember!"

"Hehe, you relax, it doesn't matter if you remember this matter or not! As long as you don't leak my habit to that old man Zhao, who has always been rough-haired, it's fine! Otherwise, he will definitely not spare me!"

After that, Gao Ran suddenly stuck out her tongue at Gao Xi playfully, and showed a small smug expression after she succeeded in making the bad.

"Hehe, you!"

As he spoke, Gao Xi unconsciously reached out and stroked Gao Ran's hair twice, looking at Gao Ran's eyes full of pampering.

Xu is many months of getting along day and night, so that the two have become much closer unconsciously, but Gao Ran doesn't mind Gao Xi's occasional overly intimate behavior, but feels that this kind of behavior is very normal between "good friends" - of course, this so-called "good friend" refers to the definition of "good friend" in the world in her previous life......

And Gao Xi naturally didn't think that Gao Ran had always thought of him like this, he only thought that since Gao Ran didn't mind that he treated her so closely, it also showed that she actually liked him in her heart - even if it was only a little ......

After all, in this world, between men and women, unless they like each other, otherwise, because of etiquette, even the best friends will not be able to have such intimate behavior!

However, this is another so-called "common sense" that Gao Ran does not know and belongs to this world after Yun Jie told him last time that "twins are taboo......

She would never have thought that her unmind had already made Gao Xiyan misunderstand her original intention......
