877 Concealment (6)

Luo Tan glared at that person, but when she saw his face clearly, she was suddenly stunned and said in a daze, “Doctor Gao?”

The young man squatting on the lake with a pink lantern in his hand and looking at her with a smile was Gao Yang. It was such a cold day, but he was still in the mood to gently fan himself with his folding fan.

“Why are you here?” Luo Tan couldn’t help but ask.

Gao Yang smiled and did not speak.

!!

Luo Tan muttered in her heart. Could it be that he was treating patients in such a remote place? She asked, “Doctor Gao, are you coming all the way here to treat people? Is the money given by the imperial court very little so that you have to moonlight as a country doctor? Why are you working so hard?” Her words were filled with sympathy.

Gao Yang laughed out loud. After a while, he said, “It’s not what you think.”

Luo Tan looked at him. “Then why are you here?”

Gao Yang stared at her calmly. “Why are you here?”

“Me?” Luo Tan said matter-of-factly, “I’m accompanying my little cousin to the Daliang Dynasty.”

Gao Yang pretended to look surprised and said, “Oh, I met someone a few days ago. He seemed to have come out of the Shen family. He brought a letter to Princess Consort Rui, but he didn’t know where she was and asked me for directions.”

Luo Tan was shocked. “Did you take him to see my little cousin?”

Gao Yang shrugged. “No. I saw that he was travel-worn and very tired, so I let him rest first. We’ll go to see her when he’s rested enough.”

Luo Tan heaved a sigh of relief, then became nervous. “Doctor Gao, don’t let that person see Princess Consort Rui.”

“Why?”

“… He’s a bad person,” Luo Tan said. “He wants to frame me! Please don’t.”

Gao Yang smiled. “Frame you? Frame you for sneaking into the wedding procession and going to the Daliang Dynasty?”

“You…” After saying “you” a few times, Luo Tan stared at Gao Yang and was speechless.

“What should I do?” Gao Yang looked a little conflicted. “If I take this person to see Princess Consort Rui, you would be sent back to the capital immediately.”

Luo Tan blurted out, “No!” It was not easy for her to follow the procession for so long and sleep with those rough men for a month, but all her efforts were about to be in vain at this moment. She was indignant! She looked at Gao Yang determinedly. “What should I do to make you keep it a secret for me?”

Gao Yang said, “That’s the right attitude. If you had said that earlier, I wouldn’t have wasted my time with you.”

Luo Tan was speechless.

Why did she feel that Gao Yang had been waiting for her to say this all along?
