Chapter 184 Su Ran Leaves the House
Su Ran was in a quiet room, thinking hard, and time seemed to slowly freeze in this solemn atmosphere.
His eyes were as deep as the sea, and his thoughts were struggling to explore the vast unknown. However, no matter how hard he racked his brains, he could not find any clues to follow.
The invisible mystery was like a towering mountain, standing before him and making it difficult for him to move forward.
After a long time, he slowly raised his head, with a gleam of determination in his eyes.
He knew very well that if he wanted to uncover the truth behind the fog, he had to take the initiative.
So he secretly made up his mind to find an appropriate opportunity to make his originally weak body recover "miraculously".
Once he is healthy again, he can approach Shen Li, who is praised by everyone as a "fairy boy".
He wanted to closely examine her every move and every word, trying to dig out the deepest secrets beneath the seemingly ordinary appearance. Who is she and what kind of unknown "tricks" does she have that can cause the world to fall without leaving the house and change Beichen's originally predetermined fate.
He was certain that the root of all this strangeness must lie with the mysterious little girl, Shen Li. She could summon rain from nowhere and produce astonishingly high-yielding crops. This ability, beyond comprehension, was like a boulder dropped into a calm lake, stirring up a thousand waves and completely disrupting Beichen's situation and destiny.
So, at dawn the next day, an unexpected scene appeared before everyone.
Su Ran, the young man who had been imprisoned in a dark room and had never been seen since he entered the Shen family courtyard to recuperate, slowly walked out with the help of a cane.
His figure in the morning light seemed a little thin but revealed a sense of tenacity.
Zhao Dali was carrying farm tools and preparing to go to the fields to work. The moment he saw Su Ran, a simple and sincere smile instantly bloomed on his face, and that smile seemed to dispel the morning mist.
He greeted him warmly, "Mr. Su, you are almost recovered now! Your complexion looks much rosier!" His words were full of concern and joy.
Lin was hanging clothes to dry nearby. When she heard Zhao Dali's words, she stopped what she was doing and said with a smile, "Isn't it? It's time to get out in the sun. The young lady said that sunbathing can replenish calcium! We don't understand it either, but it's good for your health anyway!"
Her voice was soft, with the warmth and kindness of a neighbor's aunt.
Su Ran bowed slightly, politely and courteously greeting the two with his hands clasped in a graceful and appropriate manner. His voice was gentle and humble: "Thank you, Uncle Zhao and Aunt Lin, for your care during this period. You have worked hard."
The sincere gratitude flowed slowly in the morning air, bringing warmth to Zhao Dali and Lin's hearts, as if all their efforts over the past period of time had received the best reward.
Nangong Qi finished his breakfast leisurely, and then, as usual, walked to the yard with steady steps, ready to carry out his task of monitoring Su Ran.
But who could have expected that what caught his eyes was Su Ran, who had been hiding deep in the house and had never appeared, and now walked out of the house openly.
Nangong Qi's face instantly turned gloomy, like the dark clouds before a storm, and his expression was sour, as if someone owed him a thousand taels of gold.
His eyes were like torches, staring at Su Ran intently, unblinkingly, as if he was trying to find some flaw in him. There was both vigilance and a hint of anger at having his routine broken.
As a person with superb martial arts and profound internal strength, how could Su Ran not notice that Nangong Qi had been secretly monitoring him for some time.
He seemed oblivious to this, his face still wearing that gentle smile like a spring breeze. He calmly supported his cane, bowed slightly, and saluted Nangong Qi, saying, "Thank you, Brother Qi, for your concern and for coming to see me every day. I'm very grateful!"
His voice was calm and natural, without the slightest fluctuation. He seemed to be completely unconcerned with Nangong Qi's hostility, or perhaps beneath this gentle appearance, he was hiding deeper thoughts and plans.
When Nangong Qi heard what he said, he felt a surge of inexplicable anger rising in his heart. He was so angry that he clenched his fists, his knuckles turned white, his teeth chattered, and the muscles in his cheeks trembled slightly.
But even though I was filled with anger and dissatisfaction in my heart, I could only swallow it down because I couldn't find a suitable reason to express it.
The feeling of suffocation kept churning in my chest, as if a volcano about to erupt had its exit blocked.
He glared at Su Ran fiercely, his eyes seemed to be able to burn a hole in Su Ran's body, and then he turned around angrily and strode towards the yard where the Shen family lived next door.
His footsteps were quick and heavy, and each step seemed to carry endless resentment, causing the dust beneath his feet to rise slightly.
Along the way, his face remained ashen, and he secretly swore in his heart that he would find an opportunity to reveal Su Ran's true face and make him pay for teasing him.
