"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, aunt, I'm late, Ran Er has been waiting for a long time?!" Before the person approached the side, Fu Tong, who had just walked into the door, had already opened his mouth early and took the initiative to greet Gao Ran warmly.

And Gao Ran, as soon as he noticed that someone had entered the house, the other party's "warm greeting" had instantly taken away the "initiative" of the communication between the two.

Gao Ran hurriedly got up and looked at an old woman who was walking towards her - "I think she should be Fu Tong!"

Thinking like this, the wording that Fu Tong used to greet her just now was replayed in her mind again.

"Aunt?!Ran'er?!"

Gao Ran keenly captured these two keywords, and learned two important information through them: first, she knew that Fu Tong's not simple husband was a member of the Gao family, and he should still be her own uncle! Second, Fu Tong and her met for the first time today, and they were so "familiar" with her, it seems that there must be some purpose behind Fu Tong's "enthusiasm" - and this purpose, for Gao Ran, is definitely not good!

After realizing these two points, Gao Ran suddenly remembered that in the Gao family's lineage and her mother Gao Lan's generation, Gao Lan had three older brothers and one younger brother. But among them, only Gao Lan's second brother Gao Liwen is her half-brother!

and then estimated the possible age of Fu Tong Zhengfu now...... Gao Ran guessed that this Fu Tong's husband should be Gao Lan's second brother Gao Liwen!

However, for Gao Ran, she needs to be like this because Fu Tong "blew up" the "relationship" with her that she didn't actually know about, and then was awakened all of a sudden, and deduced the true identity of the husband behind Fu Tong...... Gao Ran was actually quite helpless about the reason why there was such a situation that made her feel very embarrassing like the current one - because it was neither her fault nor the fault of the original owner of this body......

This is a bit of a long story......

In fact, although Gao Ran knew the names and approximate ages of several of his uncles, he had never met them.

Not only that, but she didn't even know where exactly they were married now!

Although it is indeed a bit unbelievable that this happened to the current "Miss Gao Family", but. Unlike other young ladies of the family, Gao Ran's situation is somewhat special......

Because Gao Ran is still young now, and he has been frail and sickly since he was a child, so. She was raised from the complicated family relationships since she was a child. And the courtyard where she lives in the Gao Mansion has already become a tacit "forbidden place" for everyone in the Gao Mansion!

On weekdays, except for You Song and Qiao'er, no one dares to go in and out of there casually. Because if someone is found to have accidentally disturbed the sophomore high school lady who has been haunting the sickbed since childhood and may die at any time because of unauthorized admission, then this is the culpability. Up and down the house, no one can afford to take it lightly!

And such a long period of "isolation from the world" naturally makes it possible for the only people who can recall in more detail in the memory of the original owner of Gao Ran's body - because in her short life of just over five years, the only people she can pay attention to are herself and You Song.

Although Gao Ran didn't want to admit it, it was true: Gao Lan seemed to be very fond of her second daughter on the surface. not only created a very quiet environment for her to recuperate, but also was very willing to pay a lot of financial, human and material resources to extend her life. It can be said that even Gao Qi has never received such extravagant preferential treatment!

However, there is a price to be paid for getting this......

Because Gao Ran was congenitally deficient and frail and sickly since she was a child, Gao Lan never included her in the consideration of the heir. But the problem is that Gao Lan only has two daughters, so even if she never had any expectations for Gao Ran in her heart, she must not let her die so lightly - even if she wants to die. Then you have to wait until Gao Qi really takes over the position of the head of the Gao family, and then die!

However, according to tradition, Gao Qi was to take over as the head of the family. In fact, it will have to wait until Gao Lan is about to die soon......

Therefore, normally speaking, after Gao Qi officially takes over the position of head of the family, Gao Lan will naturally be no longer alive! Now that everyone is no longer alive, the future fate of the Gao family naturally does not need Gao Lan to worry about it anymore - because. When she was alive, the responsibilities that should have been on her were all fulfilled when she died.

Therefore, only at that time, no matter where the Gao family will go under Gao Qi's management, and no matter whether Gao Ran can still live well at that time, it doesn't matter to Gao Lan!

And this is the real reason why Gao Lan treats Gao Ran well - in order to fulfill her duties as the head of the family - before Gao Qi takes over the position of head of the family, she must ensure that Gao Ran, who is the only orthodox "alternate heir" in the Gao Mansion besides Gao Qi, can live well - in case of emergency!

After all, people are not as good as heaven! Who can guarantee that Gao Qi will be able to live peacefully until Gao Lan dies?!

Although Gao Ran doesn't want to admit it, it is true: she, like Yun Jie, just exists as a "spare tire". And her original "mission" in life, in fact, is the same as Yun Jie, which is to live well as a "spare tire", not to have accidents or make trouble, and then to live according to the instructions of the head of the family all her life......

"Alas, it's just a pity......" Once, when Gao Ran became more and more aware of her objective situation and finally thought of this layer, she couldn't help but sigh like this.

She sighed, it's a pity that the original "Gao Ran" is long gone! And the current Gao Ran is not something that Gao Lan can easily manipulate - let alone Gao Qi, the next head of the Gao family!

If you ask Gao Ran, why is he so confident?

It's not because Gao Ran feels that his "Taoism" must be higher than Gao Lan...... She is just very sure of the power that the "faith" in her heart can give her: "Life is precious, love is more valuable, if it is for freedom, both can be thrown away!"

If such a Gao Ran, who pursues "liberalism", gives up the pursuit of "freedom", let alone Gao Lan, even if it is extreme, it is a natural disaster that is far more powerful than human beings in terms of strength and threatens her, and it is not at all that human beings can resist, she will definitely not back down half a point!

"It's a big deal, it's a death, it's not a big deal! It's just a different form of survival! It comes from nature, and it will return to nature after all, and it's not bad!"

Gao Ran felt that she, as a person, like everyone else, was just an animal living in the web of meaning she had weaved, since God had let her grow up in a family without "temperature" in her previous life, so that she had been accustomed to indifference, ruthlessness, and calmness since she was a child, then, when she finally found something that could allow her to regain a little bit of the enthusiasm that should belong to life, she could convince herself to continue to live. Rather than a reason to feel that life is actually boring, that reason naturally becomes the only meaning that can encourage her to live well—the only meaning that makes her feel that her life is meaningful—the pursuit of freedom.

This is an instinct of her as a "human being" living in human society - only when she lives in the web of meaning she weaves can she feel that she is really "alive......

Gao Ran felt that this should also be a kind of providence: let her grow up like that, let her eventually grow into that kind of person, and then let her finally find such a meaning because of various opportunities, and therefore make up her mind to choose the way she wants to live - these, in her opinion, are all providential.

And she's just obeying the will of God!

Think about the self she created in her previous life, and then think about her current situation in this life......

Gao Ran believes that a situation like this, which is very lacking in her understanding of the world and even the various relationships between her family members because of the special situation of the original owner of the body, will definitely appear in the future!

In response to this, all she can do is to be more proactive in collecting more information to make up for her lack of knowledge as much as possible.

However, if even so, she still encounters such a secret thing at such a moment, then all she can do is to activate her logical reasoning ability quickly, and do her best to capture all kinds of important details, and use them to deduce the "truth" that she needs to know most in the current situation!

For example, at this moment, she temporarily deduced that person should be her second uncle, Gao Liwen, after omitting the information of "Fu Tong's husband" in advance.

There is no sign of it yet...... But Gao Ran already had a hunch: this person's identity, as well as the various interests involved behind his identity, and even his own temperament, these are the "truths" that she must now find a way to know! )
