My best friends both transmigrated into a book and married powerful officials; she left me and I lef

Sang Luan blinked frantically at Granny Xu.

Xu Mama just looked at her coldly, "Young Madam, every moment you waste now will reduce the time available to correct your dance moves."

Sang Luan looked up at the sky speechlessly. After arguing with the person in front of her for several more rounds, she finally accepted the fact.

Sang Luan, holding the hem of her dress, stood up dejectedly and slowly walked to the center.

Seeing her so cooperative, Xu Mama's expression softened slightly.

Immediately, a sharp look swept over Yu Po, "When the young mistress is teaching, all irrelevant people must leave."

Sang Luan spoke first, her tone firm, "No!"

Granny Xu glanced at her, and seeing how bothered she was, she didn't bring it up again.

Granny Xu extended a hand to Sang Luan, "Young Madam, please."

A quarter of an hour later.

Quiet.

An eerily quiet atmosphere.

An inexplicable atmosphere gradually spread through the air.

The only faint sound coming from inside the room was the breathing of a few people.

Sang Luan stood in the center, her ten fingers stiffly curled up, her waist as rigid as a stone, bent to one side, with a faint smile on her face.

Her eyes were fixed intently ahead, and as she turned around, she even winked at Granny Xu.

Granny Xu held a bamboo stick in her hand. This was something the Madam had taught her beforehand, just in case Sang Luan was lazy.

She gazed at the figure before her and tapped the table casually, "Stop, stop, stop."

Wasn't it said that the daughter of the Minister's family was skilled in singing and dancing?

However, in her view today, Sang Luan and Shan Wu are quite different.

The green leaves outside the mansion, swaying in the wind and dancing in the air, were much more beautiful than the few times she had swayed earlier.

Granny Xu frowned deeply, looking as if she wanted to say something but couldn't.

As soon as Sang Luan stopped, she turned to look at Granny Xu, a strange light flashing in her eyes for a few moments, "How was my dance? And how was my figure?"

Xu Mama's expression was complicated. After a long while, she spoke with difficulty, "Young Madam's two moves to swat flying insects just now were quite good."

Sang Luan: "Huh?"

Meanwhile, inside the Crown Prince's residence.

"What did you say?" Qi Ran's eyes widened, he slammed his hand on the table, and stood up abruptly. "Does this young master need Meng Youning's permission to go out?"

The teacup on the table suddenly lifted off the table, paused in mid-air for a moment, and then fell back to its original position.

The tea in the cup splashed out and landed on Qi Ran's hand.

However, he seemed oblivious, his face still full of anger.

Cang Hei stood obediently behind Qi Ran and calmly said, "Your Highness, to be precise, it's not that you need the Princess Consort's permission to go out, but that you need money to go out. However, most of your money before was secretly given to you by the steward."

“Now that the household has a new manager, the Crown Princess checked the household accounts on the day the Prince and Princess left.” His gaze remained fixed on the front. “Given your extravagant spending, the previous money must have been spent long ago.”

He paused, then said, "Therefore, if you want to leave the manor now, you will need at least fifty taels of silver. If you want to get the money from the Crown Princess, you must first apologize to her before you will have even the slightest chance of getting the money."

After saying that, Cang Hei took a deep breath.

Qi Ran turned to the side, staring at him in disbelief, her mouth slightly agape. "How can you say so much in one breath?"

Realizing something, Qi Ran waved his hand, then slowly sat down and beckoned to Cang Hei, "Come closer."

Cang Hei had no doubts whatsoever, and silently moved closer to Qi Ran.

The next moment, Qi Ran slapped Cang Hei on the back of the head. "Do I need you to tell me?"

Pale Black winced in pain and quickly retreated, looking very aggrieved. "Young Master, why did you hit me?"

Qi Ran glared at him fiercely, then waved her hand in the air as if to say something, "If you say that again, I'll hit you, believe it or not."

He was silent for a moment, and after a long while, he slowly spoke, "Do you have anything valuable left?"

Cang Hei thought about it very seriously, then pointed to himself.

Qi Ran stretched out his hand, "I think you want to get beaten up again!"

Cang Hei shrank his neck, but his tone was extremely sincere, "The most valuable thing here is me—your loyal servant, Your Highness."

Qi Ran clicked his tongue. "Shut up!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Cang Hei fell silent.

Qi Ran wore a bitter expression, bowing his head and stamping his feet. "I never imagined that I, a dignified prince, a prince indeed, would be penniless!"

No, he made an appointment with that kid from the Gu family today. If he doesn't go, the others will definitely look down on him.

"So, the most effective and quickest way right now is for me to take the initiative to apologize to Meng Youning?" Qi Ran suddenly asked.

No one responded to him.

Qi Ran turned to the side and gave a feint kick in the air, "This young master is asking you a question!"

Cang Hei: "Didn't you tell me to shut up?"

Qi Ran glared at him through gritted teeth, grabbed a teacup from the empty table, and threw it straight at Cang Hei.

The teacup brushed past Cang Hei without veering too far.

Cang Hei nodded heavily. "It seems that's correct at the moment."

Qi Ran stared intently ahead, his mind racing, and immediately made a decision: "I've got a solution!"

He got up and walked straight out the door.

Pale-faced man was startled and quickly followed.

A moment later, beside the flowerbed.

Qi Ran stared at the last few petals in her hand, held her breath, and plucked one.

"Go apologize."

"Not going to apologize."

"Go apologize!" After plucking the last petal from the flower stem, Qi Ran revealed a smile that looked more like a grimace. "What do you mean, apologize!"

Cang Hei followed behind, silently watching Qi Ran.

Is this the solution that the young master came up with after thinking for a long time?

Qi Ran stood up indifferently, and soon his eyes lit up. He rushed into the flower garden and began picking flowers without restraint.

Petals and leaves fell on his hair, but he casually reached out and brushed them away.

He sniffed and yawned loudly.

He reached out and rubbed his nose, glanced at the bright flowers in his hand, and smiled slightly.

With this bouquet of flowers, getting Meng Youning to forgive him would be a piece of cake.

He held it up in front of him and waved it. "Is that alright now?"

Cang Hei spoke silently, "Not necessarily."

Qi Ran narrowed his eyes dangerously. "Hmm?"

Cang Hei nodded repeatedly, "Seeing how sincere you are, Your Highness, the Princess Consort will surely forgive you!"

Qi Ran smiled with satisfaction, strode forward, and as he passed Cang Hei, he reached out and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "You're a promising young man!"

He looked up at the sky again, estimating that it was about time, before he arrived outside Yunyan Pavilion.

Qi Ran stared intently at the doorway, and as the door slowly opened, he lowered his gaze and prepared himself.

His right hand was propped up in the air, his left hand held flowers, and his eyes were lowered.

The moment Meng Youning came out, he stepped forward and moved to stand in front of her.

"Ningning..." He swiftly stuffed the flowers in his hand into Meng Youning's arms, his tone gentle, "Although we did not rise together, we seek to be of one heart!"
