374. Self-inflicted
"In the past few days, you have prepared a little, and if you can hand it over to 'Seven' to do it, let him start taking over. ”
When Qiu Yueze heard this, he immediately raised his eyes and glanced at Gao Ran, understanding that she was planning to leave in the near future, so he nodded and agreed.
Then, Gao Ran turned to look at "Seven" standing beside Qiu Yueze and said to him: "One day, this information I gave Qiu Yueze will be seen by you." Do you know what that will mean then?"
"Yes, thank you, Miss. "Seven" immediately understood Gao Ran's hint, and this time, his gratitude to her was really sincere.
"We don't have to, we just take what we need and get what we want. However, since each has its own place, then you should know that since I give you the opportunity to get what you want, then you have to do something for me to give back to me?"
"Yes, 'Seven' understands, 'Seven' guarantees that even if he goes to war in the future, he can protect the Gao family, and if he can't keep everything, he will try his best to protect those who are willing to surrender to Tiange; ”
"Hmm. With your assurance, I am relieved. However, no matter how you say it, people are always not as good as heaven...... There are not a few people who will change themselves due to changes in current events, or even completely subvert their former selves...... Therefore, I must also say the ugly words in front: even if I die two years later, Qiu Yueze will fulfill my last wish for me, and my master and my junior uncle will also mourn my soul by fulfilling my last wish. - You should understand what this means?"
"Yes, 'Seven' understands that even if 'Seven' and Tiange can't become friends with Medicine Valley, they will never be enemies of Medicine Valley. ”
Gao Ran could see that "Seven" was sincere to her at this time, and he estimated that he himself was clear: in the face of her, it is better to tell the truth, otherwise, the more he wants to cover it up, the more truth he will expose in front of her - similar suffering, he has not suffered less in the past. Now, we've learned our lesson.
"It seems that you still have the least of self-knowledge. I'm satisfied with your answer, but I need to add a little more......"
"Miss, please. ”
"If it is another day, even if you can save my father, but he refuses to give up his family and live alone, you don't have to force him to live. I hope you will respect his own choice. Promise me, at the very least, that he will be able to hold the control of his life firmly in his hands at all times - only he can decide whether he lives or dies. Don't let others take away his decision on his own life. Also, protect Qiao'er...... ...... with her family."
When "Seven" heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyes to look at Gao Ran with a slight flicker, then quickly lowered his head again, and answered in a low voice-"Yes." ”
"Okay, the Gao family's affairs, we have almost negotiated, then it's time to talk about some personal matters......"
Qiu Yueze looked at Gao Ran with some puzzlement, but Gao Ran obviously raised his eyes to look at "Seven" standing beside him at this moment, and "Seven", who was lowering his head, also felt Gao Ran's gaze, so he raised his eyes to look at her again.
"'Seven', let me ask you, are you familiar with the third lady of the Gao family, Gao Yu?"
It's not just acquaintance, it's familiarity. ——This was Gao Yu's only obvious reaction at that time, giving Gao Ran's confidence. Of course, so far, it is still just her own wishful thinking. But it did not prevent her from asking "Seven" directly for the truth.
When Qiu Yueze heard this, he immediately turned to look at the "Seven" beside him, and Gao Xi, who was standing next to Gao Ran, also looked at the "Seven" with the same interest. Although the three of them had different things in mind, they were all very interested in the matter.
If Gao Ran had asked him this question in the past, "Seven" would definitely not tell the truth, but now, with "Seven's" understanding of Gao Ran, he was very sure that she was indeed not a person who would interfere in other people's private affairs for no reason, and she would never try to obstruct his own sincerity for the sake of Qiao'er. Otherwise, she could have asked him to marry Qiao'er in the future, rather than just asking him to protect her and her family......
Therefore, he chose to tell the truth: "Before I left the capital, when I was on a mission, I met her by chance......"
Gao Ran nodded knowingly. She understood that with the identity of "Seven" at that time and Gao Yu's identity at that time, they would meet, and it was mostly related to Tiange's intention to investigate and understand Yu Ying, the prime minister of the current dynasty. At the same time, her nod also made "Seven" feel relieved: Gao Ran really did what he thought, not really wanted to get to the bottom of the matter, she just wanted to know what she wanted to know, as for the rest, she wouldn't care, let alone deliberately interfere in it, or even intend to obstruct it.
Sure enough, Gao Ran's next words completely confirmed the prediction of "Seven" - just listen to her say:
"I don't care about what happens between you. As long as you promise not to let this prevent you from fulfilling your promise to me, then I don't care if you really marry her or if she marries you one day.
"However, I also kindly remind you: Gao Yu's current situation is not optimistic, even if her marriage with Fu Wenxuan is likely to be impossible at all, she and you may not be able to do it.
"Don't forget, even if he will be under your command, the Heavenly Pavilion is by no means at the mercy of any one you want. On the contrary, if you can't coexist with the Heavenly Pavilion for mutual benefit, then sooner or later you will be 'counterattacked' by the Heavenly Pavilion. - You'd better be on the lookout for this at all times. Otherwise, once you can't truly control the Heavenly Pavilion, then even if Qiu Yueze doesn't make a move, you will sooner or later die at the hands of other competitors who are eyeing the position of Pavilion Master.
"Besides, even if the relationship between you and Gao Yu may not be used against you by your opponents, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not put Gao Yu in a more dangerous situation because of this. - Unless she's as good at self-preservation as I am, to the point where she doesn't bother to bother......"
Gao Ran's last words instantly aroused the dissatisfaction of Qiu Yueze and Gao Xi, and they coughed lightly almost at the same time.
was interrupted by their sudden coughing at the same time, Gao Ran reacted a little slowly: it turned out that they were expressing dissatisfaction with her.
However, in her opinion, what she said was also true: her so-called self-preservation was so strong that she didn't bother others, not because she was sure that no one would have the ability to threaten anyone who cared about her with her life anytime and anywhere, but because of her character, she would never have left such a chance for the other party in the first place. - If she is really invincible, then she would rather kill herself than let herself be taken hostage. The last thing she is afraid of in her life is to be threatened, and the most unbearable thing for her is that one day she will become a tool used by others to threaten others—— such a shameful humiliation, she would rather die than achieve it!
Gao Ran, who rarely goes to extremes, is always on the tip of the bull's horns in this matter, and can't turn it around, which makes Gao Xi and Qiu Yueze, who know her temperament, very dissatisfied with what she just said: It is true that she has never really become a hostage in anyone's hands as she said, but along the way, they have been worried and worried about her, for fear that once she can't save herself and they can't go to support in time, she will choose to break herself! She was always like this, taking her own natural control of her life, which they cared so much about, and often made them fear her, while she herself lived without heart and lungs, and lived as she pleased, and did not take her life seriously at all, let alone hesitate the idea of drilling the horns for their sake, even if it was for their sake—she would not, never! Moreover, they believed that she had not, not now, and never will......
Just because they understood it in their hearts, but they couldn't accept such a reality calmly, Qiu Yueze and Gao Xi looked at Gao Ran so resentfully at this moment.
