In fact, the moment Gao Ran decided to let Gao Xi hold her hand tightly, she already expected that this move would be noticed by the three of them and use the question to test her. But she still allowed things to go in the direction she had anticipated—because it happened to fulfill her, and would make the achievement of her purpose seem more natural—even if it was the same purpose that others had asked for and what she had proposed, the effect would have been very different.

"We?"

Gao Ran looked at Gao Xi inexplicably, but Gao Xi couldn't see what she was thinking at this time? The only thing he knew was that he was angry just now, so he impulsively and openly held her hand and didn't let go, which caused Gao Lan to question her. He felt that he had caused her trouble......

Thinking like this, Gao Xi wanted to let go of Gao Ran's hand. But who would have thought that he let go of Gao Ran's freedom, but she immediately grabbed his hand with her backhand, and specially crossed her fingers with him and clenched it.

Gao Ran's action, not only Gao Xi was very surprised, but even the three people who were waiting for her to answer on the side could see it clearly - what she meant was self-evident.

After calming Gao Xi's emotions and dispelling his guilt just now with a simple backshake, Gao Ran turned to Gao Lan and said, "Mother, I want to talk to you about a deal." ”

"Oh? Although Gao Lan was very restrained from expressing her emotions, her eyes clearly flashed a little bit of confidence and faint smugness that seemed to have everything in her hands.

"My days are numbered, and I won't live long anyway. Therefore, it is impossible for me to help the Gao family through marriage after the marriage......"

Hearing this, Gao Lan coughed awkwardly, but did not deny Gao Ran's statement.

Gao Ran knew that Gao Lan was acquiescing to her rhetoric - this could be regarded as passing the first "hurdle". She continued: "But as a member of the Gao family, I really can't know that the future of the Gao family is auspicious and uncertain, but I still stay out of the matter and ignore the Gao family. But I have my own selfish intentions - not to mention, my time is short...... Compared with the Gao family, I naturally care more about my selfishness. But I really can't ignore the Gao family...... So, after thinking about it, I came up with a plan that might be able to fulfill both me and the Gao family......"

When the three of them heard this, although they didn't believe the perfunctory words Gao Ran said earlier, and they didn't believe that her so-called two-pronged plan was really for the Gao family, rather than a concession that they had to make because they had just seen through her selfishness, but if the plan she gave was really feasible and beneficial to each of them, then they didn't mind turning a blind eye and letting her get through the trick and fulfill her face.

Seeing that the three of them seemed to have reached some kind of tacit agreement that they were unwilling to break, Gao Ran said after a short pause: "I think so, my selfishness is to live the last 'two years' of my life quietly and comfortably......"

She deliberately "compressed" her lifespan to exactly the same as the deadline she mentioned earlier—two years—to arouse more attention and empathy from them.

At the same time, what they don't know is that no matter how good they are at camouflaging and hiding their emotions, as long as their true emotions fluctuate slightly, the smell on their bodies will change slightly, and the faint electromagnetic waves around them will also change slightly-these, as long as Gao Ran's attention is highly concentrated, then she can flow in the air through her sense of smell and her body at such a close distance. With the sensitive touch of the fluctuating electromagnetic waves, she could quickly perceive the real emotional changes in front of her at this time.

Gao Ran paused slightly, and only after realizing that it was a real emotional change that even they themselves might not be aware of had indeed caught up with her, she continued:

"But the Gao family really needs me to contribute my strength to strengthening the strength of the Gao family in these last two years......

Although it is impossible for me to live two completely different lives at the same time, in order to satisfy the different demands of myself and the Gao family at the same time, such a contradiction is not completely unsolvable.

"Let's not talk about me first, let's talk about the Gao family first. The reason why the Gao family needs me is nothing more than to get all the resources and support I can provide to the Gao family from me, not that I have to stay in the Gao family every step of the way. And I don't have to have these resources to live the life I want. All I want is for the last two years of my life, to be able to go wherever I want to go and live the life I want, without being hindered or hindered.

"So, in essence, there is no conflict between my purpose and my value to the Gao family.

"To put it bluntly, I am willing to leave all the resources I can give to the Gao family, but in exchange, the Gao family must let me and Qiao'er go free, and promise to treat my father well in this life and this life. Otherwise, even if I die, my master and Qiu Yueze will avenge me.

"I might as well tell you that I have already told them my last wish, that is, I want them to protect my father and Qiao'er. So, protecting my dad and Qiao'er was, for them, fulfilling my last wishes, and at the same time, it was the only way they could mourn me in the future—and it was not something that anyone could induce or intimidate them to give up. - Imagine what would you do if you were to mourn someone by doing so, and only then would you be able to give your heart a moment of peace?"

The three looked at each other, but in the end, only Gao Lan responded—and only she was qualified to respond: "Okay." I promise you. ”

No matter how the other two calculated in their hearts, as Gao Lan, the head of the Gao family, she naturally knew the weight of Gao Ran's conditions and threats to them. In addition, since Gao Ran came back, her attitude of non-interference with the "Gao family" in the mansion also made Gao Lan feel that if she just left Gao Ran's people in the Gao family, but couldn't keep her heart, it would be useless to keep her, a person who didn't even have the value of marriage, but might leave a major hidden danger to the Gao family that could erupt at any time.

If that's the case, then it would be better to agree to Gao Ran's conditions, and take advantage of her willingness to take the initiative to hand over the medical and poisonous knowledge from the Medical Valley that she has learned all her life, as well as the almost all-round resource support that can be provided by Tiange for at least two years through her matchmaking, and promise her that she will use three people who are insignificant even if they lose the Gao family in exchange for the various resources and support that they urgently need to strengthen the Gao family's own strength. - Do this, do not lose.

And as for how the Gao family should make good use of those resources after that, and prevent the part that should be vigilant - especially about the more frequent interactions and negotiations with the Heavenly Pavilion that will inevitably occur in the future, these are things that Gao Lan, as the head of the Gao family, should consider and measure, and this is not something that can be interfered with by others in the first place.
