“I’m impressed.” Gao Yang cupped his hands at Luo Tan. The medicine was bitter. Since Luo Tan was seriously injured, the medicine was even more bitter. Even the smell made one feel uncomfortable, but Luo Tan drank it without batting an eyelid.
Luo Tan said, “I’m going to rest. Doctor Gao, please leave. Bai Lu, Shuang Jiang, you girls can leave too. I can’t sleep with someone in the room. It’s noisy.”
Gao Yang left with the two maids with a smile.
After everyone left, Luo Tan stood up and ran to the window to look out. Bai Lu and Shuang Jiang were sweeping the courtyard on the other side. She quickly took out her outer clothes and cloak from the closet and put them on. After thinking for a moment, she grabbed the few bottles of medicine on the table and moved the stool to the window, ready to jump out.
In the past, when she was in Spring City, Luo Tan and Luo Qian had practiced sneaking out of the mansion to have fun to the point of perfection. In the end, even if Luo Liantai locked the two of them in the room, Luo Tan and Luo Qian would still be able to find a way to sneak out and do whatever they wanted.
Therefore, Luo Tan really wasn’t worried about being grounded in the Shen mansion. The most important thing now was to quickly go to see Prince Rui. Luo Tan believed Shen Miao’s words without a doubt. She felt that as long as she found Prince Rui, she would definitely be able to save Shen Miao.
However, the wound on her waist had indeed not healed yet. It hurt whenever Luo Tan moved. However, Luo Tan couldn’t care less at this moment. She pressed one hand on the wound and successfully jumped out of the window. She tiptoed to a corner of the courtyard and pushed away the weeds by the wall, revealing a dog hole. She crawled through it without hesitation.
Luo Tan did all of this extremely skilfully, but she did not see the white figure standing far away, looking at her with a dumbfounded expression.
Gao Yang could not believe his eyes.
Even if the Luo family was a family of generals, even if the people of Spring City were valiant, even if… Luo Tan was still an official’s daughter. Gao Yang thought that Shen Miao was already a weirdo in Ming Qi, but he did not expect Shen Miao’s cousin to be no different.
Luo Tan was about to go crazy.
When she went out, she was afraid of alerting others, so she didn’t use the Shen family’s carriage. This way, she could only walk over herself. Although Prince Rui’s mansion was not far from the Shen mansion, it was still too long for someone like her who was just saved from the brink of death.
However, Luo Tan did not give up.
The perseverance of the descendants of the Luo family was never to be underestimated. Luo Sui had taught them since they were young that they should never give up. Therefore, although Luo Tan felt dizzy and had a difficult time walking, she never thought of giving up halfway.
Gao Yang watched from afar. At first, he was fanning himself as if he was watching a show, but gradually, his hand paused in midair.
The girl’s entire body was wrapped in a cloak. She was trembling uncontrollably. Every two steps, she had to stop and rest against the wall. No one knew better than Gao Yang how serious Luo Tan’s injuries were. Just now in the Shen mansion, although Gao Yang had the intention of teasing Luo Tan, he meant it when he said if Luo Tan moved around, her wound would reopen. He could almost imagine the dripping sweat on Luo Tan’s forehead.
However, what was surprising was that Luo Tan did not stop. Every time Luo Tan stopped in her tracks, Gao Yang thought she was going to give up, but she would always pull herself together and continue. This made Gao Yang very curious. He wanted to see what Luo Tan was up to.
