"That ticket, that ticket was given to me by Yin'er!"
"Qiyin?"
Shen Cang's eyelids twitched. After throwing away the branch in his hand, he angrily went to the Begonia Courtyard.
When he arrived there, his anger inexplicably dissipated after meeting Shen Qiyin's indifferent gaze.
But to save face, he still asked with a stern face, "Let me ask you, how come those ration coupons you gave your mother are fake? Where are the real ones?"
Shen Qiyin said calmly, "That's right, the Tongbao Money Shop tickets I gave her before were indeed fake."
"As for the reason, Father knows it too. If we don't give her fake ones, she'll probably squander all the money."
Shen Cang's eyes lit up instantly, and he hurriedly asked, "Is that really true?"
"No, not really."
"What?!"
"I didn't save any of the money my grandmother gave to my mother that day."
Upon hearing this, Shen Cang became anxious: "Then where did you put it?"
After taking a leisurely sip of tea, Shen Qiyin replied slowly, "Where it was kept before is not important, but now, that money is with Lord Xiao."
"who?!"
"Xiao Yan, the heir apparent of the Xiao family."
"How did it end up with him?"
"You should ask your father," Shen Qiyin said with a cold laugh. "If my father hadn't gone to him so eagerly to discuss our marriage, why would he have suddenly asked me how much dowry I had?"
"The wedding procession is a grand affair, with ten miles of red bridal procession. My father has already boasted about it. How can I not try to cover it up?"
Shen Cang was completely dumbfounded: "I... I never said such a thing?"
"Why is Father asking me what I'm asking? I wasn't even there! If you're so capable, go and confront Xiao Yan."
Shen Cang wouldn't dare.
But he still couldn't understand: "So what if he asked you how much dowry you had? How did all that money end up in his hands?"
"When he saw the money, he asked me to lend it to him."
“I thought, given my grandmother’s past mistake of stealing money, it would be good to lend it out, and it would also make him owe me a favor.”
Shen Cang, on the other hand, didn't care; he only cared about one thing.
Is there a written agreement?
"No."
"You... Oh dear!" Shen Cang pounded his chest and stamped his feet, filled with regret: "Why didn't I ask him to write a contract? Without any proof, what if he goes back on his word later?"
"Heh." Shen Qiyin chuckled, "You're getting anxious now? How come you were so capable before?"
“Xiao Yan said that you have already betrothed me to him, and we are all family. It would seem too formal to draw up a written agreement, unless I am not sincere in marrying him and your words that day were just a joke.”
"Listen to yourself, do you think I can refuse?"
"Why……"
Shen Cang sighed deeply, genuinely regretting his actions.
Although he felt that the Duke's family was unlikely to care about their small amount of money, it was still money, and who wouldn't love it?
He is now starting to wonder if Xiao Yan was just teasing him when he said he would marry Shen Qiyin that day.
Let's hope that in the end, Xiao Yan has had his fill of her and then turns his back on her.
Thinking of this, Shen Cang suddenly turned to look at Shen Qiyin. Although he felt it was inappropriate for a father to ask his daughter such a question, he couldn't care less now that things had come to this.
"Tell me the truth, to what extent has your relationship with Prince Xiao progressed?"
If there really is something going on, it would be better if I could get pregnant.
But if you don't get pregnant and instead have your body ruined for nothing, then you'll truly lose both your health and your money!
"When you are alone, have you ever overstepped your bounds?"
