Venomous Empress Reborn

631 Adding Fuel to the Flame (6)

“Why are you sighing?” A head suddenly popped out from behind Gao Yang, scaring him so much that he almost fell.

“Doctor Gao.” Luo Tan asked, “Why are you standing here?” She followed Gao Yang’s gaze and saw Shen Miao and Luo Ling sitting and talking. Then, she looked at Gao Yangs. Gao Yang felt a little uneasy being stared at by Luo Tan’s strange gaze. Luo Tan suddenly said, “I understand. So you like my little cousin!”

Gao Yang was so shocked that he quickly reached out to cover Luo Tan’s mouth. What a joke. He wasn’t the only one planted by Xie Jingxing in the new Shen mansion. There were other secret guards too. If some nosy secret guard told Xie Jinxing about this, he wouldn’t have to stay in Ming Qi anymore. Looking at Luo Tan, who was struggling to break free, Gao Yang felt helpless. Luo Tan seemed to specialize in causing trouble for him.

Luo Tan finally broke free from Gao Yang’s hand. She probably realized that her voice was a little loud, so she lowered her voice. However, her expression was still smug, as if she had something on Gao Yangs. She said, “So you like Little Cousin and you’re jealous.”

“Don’t speak as if you know everything.” Gao Yang said, “I don’t dare to have any thoughts about Fifth Miss Shen.”

Luo Tan curled her lips. “At least you know your place. My little cousin is so smart and good-looking. It’s hard to find a girl like her in the capital. You’re just a doctor, yet you still want to dream about chasing her. Why don’t you look at yourself in the mirror?”

The disdain in her tone hurt Gao Yang, making him really have the urge to find a mirror to see if he was really as unpresentable as Luo Tan said.

Thinking of His Highness, Gao Yang sneered and nodded in Luo Ling’s direction. “I’m not qualified, but do you think he’s qualified?”

Luo Tan glanced at Luo Ling and sighed. “Cousin Ling is very good, but unfortunately, he’s the right person for my cousin.”

These words surprised Gao Yang. He thought that Luo Tan would speak up for her cousin, so he asked, “Oh? Why do you say so?”

“Cousin Miao has a mind of her own, but Cousin Ling is too gentle. I don’t see any spark of love happening between them. I think Cousin Miao only treats Cousin Ling as her elder brother.” Luo Tan felt that it was a pity.

Gao Yang was surprised and asked, “Then tell me, who can your little cousin have a spark of love with?”

Gao Yang was just teasing Luo Tan, but he did not expect Luo Tan to really think about it seriously. In the end, she said, “Probably someone like Prince Rui.”

Gao Yang was stunned.

“Prince Rui is good-looking and mysterious. He’s also a person who values friendship and loyalty. He is the only one of his kind in this world. A person like my little cousin deserves such a husband…” Luo Tan’s voice trailed off. She looked up and saw Gao Yang looking at her with a smile. Only then did she realize that she had said too much to Gao Yang. Her relationship with him was not that good. Luo Tan instantly changed her expression and whispered into Gao Yang’s ear, “Hey, the last time I went to Prince Rui’s mansion, you got something on me. Today, I know that you secretly love my little cousin. Now, we have something on each other. We’re even. In the future, don’t think about using Prince Rui to threaten me. Be careful that I’ll tell my little cousin about this and make you unable to raise your head in front of her for the rest of your life!” Luo Tan said fiercely.

Gao Yang didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. In fact, compared to Shen Miao, he was more afraid of Xie Jingxing. However, seeing how clever Luo Tan thought she was, he suddenly became interested. He leaned closer and said, “Alright, deal! We’re even.”

When Gao Yang leaned closer, his side profile was very handsome. Luo Tan liked beautiful things, so for some reason, she felt a little nervous. She suddenly slapped Gao Yang to the side. She was a martial artist, and her slap almost made him vomit blood.

Luo Tan turned around and left, shouting angrily, “You lecher!”

Gao Yang rubbed his chin and slowly smiled.

The trivial matters in the Shen family did not attract Shen Miao’s attention. In her eyes, they were all unimportant people. It was not until the next day that something happened at the Shen mansion that caught Shen Miao’s attention.

Shen Yue escaped.
