At this moment, an unknown aura quickly spread around the two of them, and then exploded in the air.
Qi Ran was rarely quiet.
He slowly lowered his eyes, his gaze falling on the hand that Meng Youning was holding tightly to him.
Following his gaze, Meng Youning instantly realized something and abruptly pulled her hand back.
"Sorry, it was Youning who was rude."
She turned her head to the side.
Qi Ran laughed heartily twice, "Don't blame you, I just wasn't paying attention for a moment."
He paused and was about to speak when there was a rapid knock on the door.
The two people in the room looked towards the door at the same time.
Qi Ran narrowed his eyes slightly and said softly to Meng Youning, "You go ahead and do your work. I'll go out and take a look."
Meng Youning nodded slightly.
The next moment, she devoted all her attention to making the perfume again.
Qi Ran paused at the door, turned slightly sideways, and glanced at Meng Youning who was busy behind him.
I don’t know what he was thinking about, but if you look closely, you can see that the tip of his ear is quickly flushed.
Qi Ran's eyes flashed and he walked out of the house.
outside the house.
"You'd better be in trouble." Qi Ran looked at Cang Hei not far away with a very dissatisfied expression.
Cang Hei straightened his back and said directly, "It's the guards looking for you."
Only then did Qi Ran notice that there was another person next to Cang Hei.
He said impatiently, "What's the matter?"
"Report to the prince, there is a man at the gate who claims to be your father-in-law. Yang Yan wants to see you."
Qi Ran's originally nonchalant expression suddenly became more serious.
"Father-in-law?"
Guard: "Yes, he claims to be the biological father of the Crown Princess, and he is now at the gate of the mansion."
Qi Ran's mind moved, and his eyebrows raised slightly, "It's interesting. Let's go and meet this father-in-law with this prince."
At the gate of the mansion.
Qi Ran's eyes quickly swept over the man in front of him and he said calmly, "I heard that you are my father-in-law?"
When Father Meng saw someone coming, he silently scanned Qi Ran from head to toe.
A hint of greed flashed quickly in his eyes.
If I could make him a set of clothes like this...
Father Meng quickly retracted his gaze, smiling broadly, "My Lord, I am Meng Youning's biological father. This damn girl is so lucky to have met you, but she hasn't sent a single letter to her family since she married you."
"Do you want to see Meng Youning?"
Qi Ran's tone was not good.
When Father Meng heard the tone, he couldn't help but mutter a few words in his heart.
Then he waved his hand, smiling ingratiatingly, "There's no need to meet. The prince is extremely wealthy, so just a little bit can be slipped through his fingers."
As he spoke, he silently stretched out his right hand towards Qi Ran.
Qi Ran lowered his eyes, staring at the other person's outstretched hand, then raised his eyes again, "Are you here just for the money?"
Father Meng's eyes suddenly lit up and he nodded frantically, "Yes, we spent a lot of money to treat her illness before. She can't just watch her father go out begging."
Qi Ran was silent for a moment.
He remembered that in order to get him to agree to let Meng Youning marry him, his parents gave Meng Youning's parents a large sum of money.
It hasn't been long since he came to my door again.
Qi Ran sneered. He originally thought it would be something interesting, but he didn't expect that he was just a greedy person.
He waved his hand casually and said, "Give him some money and send him away."
After saying this, he turned around and wanted to leave.
When Mr. Meng saw this, he became anxious instantly. He quickly took two steps forward, stretched out his hands, and stood in front of Qi Ran.
"My Lord, you married my daughter after all. If word gets out about your attitude, I'm afraid it won't be good for you, right?"
When Qi Ran heard this, he laughed out loud.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in a very disdainful tone, "Are you threatening me?"
Everyone around him was also staring at Father Meng with eager eyes.
Seeing this, Meng's tone softened. "My Lord, look, her mother and I have raised her for so many years, and you're just giving her a few coins. Isn't that like sending away a beggar?"
Qi Ran understood that the terms father-in-law and daughter were all excuses made by the other party.
This was clearly an open extortion attempt on his part.
Qi Ran said indifferently, "Then tell me, how much do you want?"
Father Meng thought for a moment and held up two fingers, "Two hundred taels!"
"Okay!" Qi Ran looked at Father Meng with a forced smile, "I'll give it to you!"
He turned sideways and gave a look to Cang Hei beside him.
Unexpectedly, Canghei handed one back to him.
Qi Ran clicked his tongue and blinked at Cang Hei again.
Although Cang Hei was confused, he still blinked continuously to cooperate with Qi Ran.
Qi Ran: "You are sick!"
Cang Hei felt aggrieved and stood there, not daring to say a word.
"Go get him two hundred taels!" Qi Ran waved his hand, "And write a letter of commitment. This prince doesn't want to see this person again."
Qi Ran casually patted Father Meng's shoulder and said, "You shouldn't have appeared here after you collected the things last time. This prince doesn't have any messy relatives."
He paused, his lips curled slightly, "Today, this prince is giving you money out of kindness. So, please sign this letter of commitment. From now on, you must not appear near the prince's mansion. Otherwise, I will beat you up every time I see you."
His tone was very calm.
Father Meng took a glance and saw that the other party did not seem to be joking, but he did not take it seriously.
He nodded casually and burped, "Just write it!"
In an instant, an unpleasant smell of alcohol sprayed out.
