After Gao Xi left for half a month, he finally came back. And when he returned to the original inn, he learned from the shopkeeper that Gao Ran had actually left him a message half a month ago, saying that she had already checked out and left, and left him a new address, asking him to go there to find her as soon as he came back.

Although Gao Xi also knew that Gao Ran would most likely have to stay here for a few more months, in his opinion, it was not necessary to rent another house here to live alone. Wouldn't that be conspicuous and inconvenient to leave?

Besides, Gao Ran is not bad at staying at the inn.

"Then why did she have to move to a separate house, and did she want to live here forever?"

Although in addition to this reason, Gao Xi really can't think of a reason why Gao Ran is like this, but ......

"Even if that's the case, why does she suddenly want to stay here for a long time?"

Gao Xi was puzzled by this question, and could only think: "It's better to wait until I see her, and then ask for an understanding!"

Gao Xi walked like this, and unconsciously walked in front of the mansion that Gao Ran asked him to go to quickly.

At this time, the door of the house was wide open.

When Gao Xi saw it, he didn't knock on the door, and walked straight into the courtyard.

It was only now that something had caught his attention: he had faintly smelled the faint scent of medicine emanating from the mansion as he approached it, and when he did step into it, he immediately felt that it was distinctly different from most houses of the same size that he had ever known!

Behind the living room, there is a courtyard such as a garden, and around the perimeter or deeper in the courtyard, is the master's bedroom, but the layout here is diametrically opposite: as soon as you enter the gate, you will directly come to the courtyard, and except for the special vacated middle passage that can only be walked by one person alone, the rest of the courtyard is occupied by various high or low shelves, and the shelves are also filled with all kinds of large or small dustpans, and the dustpans are tiled with all kinds of medicinal herbs。

Looking at the ground again, there was not a single weed in the courtyard! Moreover, not to mention the weeds, even the ground itself had obviously been specially renovated and trimmed!

As a result, the ground in the courtyard is not only flat, but even the fine dust that should be everywhere on the ground is almost invisible!

It can be seen that since the renovation of this ground, someone has been cleaning it every day. Only in this way can we achieve the results we have today. This ground, compared to the uneven dirt road outside the gate, can be regarded as "dusty"!

But such a ground and such attention are obviously very incompatible with the general living standards of the ordinary people living in the surrounding areas that he has observed along the way!

And such an aesthetic preference, even in the mansions of dignitaries, is rare. This is because the financial, material, and manpower required to realize and maintain such a flat and clean ground should not be underestimated! And the larger the scope of the ground paved with flat and smooth stones like this, the more financial, material, and human resources will be consumed! This is not something that ordinary people can afford! Generally speaking, it can only be seen in the homes of extremely wealthy and extremely expensive families, such as the royal family, or individual great families of other countries whose family power can rival the four great families of Yunxiang Kingdom.

Moreover, ordinary people would not think of spending their energy and financial resources on the ground of the yard! This is simply a stupid waste to them!

"Oh, it seems that the layout of this place should have been like this for a long time, and it should have been built according to the temperament of the original owner. But this place ...... Fortunately, this yard is not big, otherwise, I'm afraid that when I come, this place is still under construction!

"It's just, I don't know why she......'s like this? I don't really want to stay here for a long time, do you?"

Gao Xi originally just wanted to make a joke about Gao Ran secretly in his heart, but he didn't want to, and when he then remembered his previous doubts again, the previous joke mood dissipated without a trace.

It's just because he knows in his heart: Gao Ran will not know that before she completely gets rid of the Gao family, no matter where she goes, once the Gao family "needs" her, she still has to "obediently" go back.

In fact, it is precisely because of this that even though Gao Ran had created a shelter for himself in the mountains, after staying there for two years, he finally left the mountain.

And Gao Xi, it is precisely because he sees all this in his eyes that he is more convinced that his judgment should be good.

But......

"If she must have known that it was not the right time for her to settle in one place for long, why did she want to stay here now, and if she wasn't going to stay long, then why did she bother so much about taking care of it?"

The more Gao Xi thought about it, the more she felt that something must have happened to Gao Ran in the half month since he left! Even, this incident might have affected her plans for the future! Otherwise, she would not have moved here at this time, let alone take care of this place in such a "conspicuous" appearance in such a short period of time! It is impossible for her not to know the consequences of being too "different"! Although this place is already "different" enough......

"What does Ran'er want to do?" With such doubts, Gao Xi walked along the only "passage" left in the courtyard towards the main entrance of the main house to which it pointed.

"Who's coming?"

Before Gao Xi knocked on the door and asked if there was anyone in the house, he heard a voice from the room that he was all too familiar with.

"It's me! I'm back!" Before Gao Ran could come to open the door, Gao Xi was already looking at the still closed door in front of him with a smile in his eyes, and replied.

"The door is unlocked!"

But he didn't think about it, Gao Ran not only didn't open the door himself, but also instructed him to push the door in a very cold tone.

Her attitude was in stark contrast to the attitude she had personally sent him to the door half a month ago! This made Gao Xi even more convinced: Something must have happened to her in the past half month! Otherwise, she would never have treated him so coldly all of a sudden!

"Ran Er......" Gao Xi pushed the door straight into the house, and walked to Gao Ran's side and sat down, seeing that she had always lowered her eyes and never turned her face to look at him from beginning to end, he couldn't help but speak first to break the strange silence between the two at the moment.

However, he had just opened his mouth to call Gao Ran's name, but he choked inexplicably. He didn't know where to start.

"Hey, I have something I want to talk to you about. ”

After falling silent again, it took a long time for Gao Ran to finally speak, breaking the silence that made Gao Xi feel weird and a little embarrassed.

"Good. You say!" replied Gao Xi almost without thinking. At this moment, he only felt that it was best to actively cooperate with Gao Ran's wishes first! Otherwise, I was afraid that what he really wanted to know in his heart would be more difficult to find a suitable opportunity and would not be able to really ask.

"Hmm. Then I'll get straight to the point. Here's the thing, do you remember when you first arrived here, I introduced you to my little uncle, who had a relationship with you?"

"Hmm. Remember. How?"

"Actually, Uncle Xiao's medical skills are far superior to my master's! About half a month ago, he told me that he had a way to cure my deficiency......

"Really?!"

"Hmm. ”

After Gao Xi was suddenly interrupted from speaking, Gao Ran's serious attitude when he replied to him made Gao Xi, who was still in surprise, suddenly not dare to be too excited, but immediately restrained his emotions and waited for her next step.

Seeing that Gao Xi was a little calmer, Gao Ran continued......

"Hey, there's something I haven't told you before...... In fact, my inadequacy is not just a superficial frailty...... In fact, if I hadn't met Master and been carefully treated by him, I'm afraid it would have been difficult for me to live to this day. However, even Master, with his medical skills, could barely make me live to be fifteen...... Maybe, but not necessarily live past fifteen ......."

"What?!" Gao Xi heard this, and before he could think about it, his body had already reacted first: he clamped Gao Ran's arms tightly in horror, forcing her to look at him.

"Calm down! If you're too excited, I won't be able to tell you any more!

"Besides, aren't I fine in front of you now? Is it necessary for you to panic so much? What's more, your panic will not only not help me anything, but will cause me trouble!

"Don't you know that the most taboo thing about my illness is that my heart is too serious?!

Gao Xi listened, thought about it slightly, and was somewhat infected by Gao Ran's calm attitude when dealing with his repeated excited reactions, he didn't take too much time to quickly calm down his emotions, temporarily suppressed the panic in his heart, and persuaded himself: "Listen to her calmly for the time being, and if there is anything that can't pass your own level, then it's not too late to bring it up." ”

Thinking like this, Gao Xi didn't nod at her until he felt calm enough to continue listening to what Gao Ran might say next. But his extreme restraint of his emotions at the moment was completely exposed from the eyes he looked at Gao Ran, and the hands he had previously clamped Gao Ran's arms, although he loosened the grip on her, he turned to hold her hands tightly, and obviously released to her the momentum that she would not be allowed to break free from his hands!

He is like this, and Gao Ran is also okay. I had to let him continue to hold her hand, endure the uncontrollable slight tremor of his hands at the moment, and unconsciously looked away from his compelling gaze.

"Hey, what I'm going to say next is not only about my life, but also about you...... So, I hope you'll listen to me and stop interrupting me, or I'll stop telling you!

"Yes! I will not interrupt you!"

When she said this, Gao Ran could hear Gao Xi's determination, but at the same time, she clearly felt that his hands were tighter and trembling than before! His nervousness and fear at the moment, which he did not mention in his words, were all clearly conveyed to her in this way...... 2k reading web
