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

Meng Youning's delicate brows furrowed slightly, and almost the instant Qi Ran handed her the flowers, she leaned to one side.

"pat..."

The flower in Qi Ran's hand suddenly fell to the ground.

Meng Youning subconsciously took a step back, looking bewildered, clutching a handkerchief in her hand. "What is the young master doing?"

The flower instantly became dilapidated, with a few petals scattered forlornly beside it.

Qi Ran's gaze fell on the broken petals, and his eyes sharpened as he raised his head to glare fiercely at the person in front of him.

His lips parted slightly, as if about to speak, when Cang Hei, standing beside him, coughed heavily a few times while looking up at the sky.

Those coughs seemed to say, "Young Master, look at the sky, doesn't it resemble the fifty taels of silver you left behind?"

The meaning was subtle, but Qi Ran understood it.

Suppressing her thoughts, she looked up again, a faint smile already playing on her lips.

He looked up at Meng Youning with eager eyes, "Ningning, I heard that Tianxianglou has launched a new tea. It's said to be very refreshing. How about it? Do you have time today? How about I take you to try it?"

After saying that, Qi Ran intentionally or unintentionally looked at Meng Youning's expression.

Leaving the manor will cost money, so he can take the opportunity to ask for some more later.

His plan was quite successful.

However, the next moment, Meng Youning showed a hint of impatience in her eyes and refused without turning her head, "No need, if the young master likes it, he may go by himself."

Qi Ran's eyes widened, and he pointed at Meng Youning's back, gritting his teeth as he spoke.

Cang Hei quickly grabbed Qi Ran's arm and frantically winked at him, "Your Highness, please calm down. If you anger the Princess Consort, you won't get a single tael of silver."

Qi Ran closed his eyes and took a deep breath. For the money, he was going all out!

He couldn't let that kid from the Gu family laugh at him.

Cang Hei silently picked up the flower, shook it in his hand, and handed it to Qi Ran.

He cleared his throat, quickly moved in front of Meng Youning, and rubbed his hands together. "Ningning, take another look. I picked this for you myself from the flower garden this morning. It's still fresh."

As she spoke, she waved the flowers in her hand in front of Meng Youning's eyes.

Meng Youning raised an eyebrow slightly and glanced indifferently at Qi Ran, whose face was full of eagerness.

Suddenly, she felt a slight itch on her nostrils, and immediately felt discomfort in her nasal cavity.

The next moment, Meng Youning sneezed several times in a row.

Clutching one corner of the handkerchief, he slightly raised his hand and held it to his nose, then took a step back, watching Qi Ran and the thing in his hand warily.

Qi Ran's brow twitched wildly.

dislike!

This is clearly disdain!

Mu Xiang, who was standing nearby, suddenly spoke up, "Your Highness, the Princess Consort cannot tolerate overly pungent smells."

Qi Ran was taken aback. "This doesn't choke?"

Meng Youning couldn't help but sneeze several more times in a row.

Qi Ran immediately realized what was happening, decisively tossing the flowers in her hand to Cang Hei, her eyes fixed on Meng You Ning, "It's me..."

Meng Youning spoke calmly, "Young Master, just say what you want to say directly, there's no need to beat around the bush like this."

"The new tea from Tianxianglou that I mentioned earlier..."

Mu Xiang spoke indifferently again, "The Crown Princess never drinks tea."

Qi Ran's prepared words suddenly caught in her throat, and she looked slightly embarrassed.

Why is this woman so troublesome? She doesn't want flowers, and she won't drink tea.

"I'm sorry about what happened last time." He half-clenched his right fist, brought it to his lips, and coughed lightly. "I was too agitated. I know it was my parents' decision and had nothing to do with you."

His voice grew softer and softer.

Meng Youning remained calm and simply watched him quietly.

Given Qi Ran's arrogant nature, getting him to sincerely and proactively apologize is as rare as a heavy snowfall in June.

When his gaze met Meng Youning's calm and indifferent eyes, he inexplicably didn't want to pretend anymore.

The smile faded from his lips, and he spread his hands, looking like he'd given up in the end. "Since you've found out, I won't hide it anymore."

He stretched out his right hand and waved it in front of Meng Youning, "I have an appointment with Changfeng tonight, so give me some money."

Meng Youning stared at the constantly waving hand, slightly raised her eyes, and said calmly, "If I remember correctly, the young master has already received all of his monthly allowance."

After saying that, he didn't even glance at Qi Ran before walking away.

Qi Ran stood with her hands on her hips, looking sullen. "Why didn't I find Meng Youning so annoying before?"

Cang Hei silently lowered his head, not daring to utter the words, "Actually, ever since the Crown Princess entered the manor, you haven't treated her very well."

Cang Hei stepped forward. "Your Highness, what do we do now?"

"Go!" Qi Ran glared fiercely at Meng Youning's departing figure. "I have never mistreated Gu Changfeng and the others before. This time, I'm not bringing any money. I don't believe they can still kick me out!"

"Miss, will this work?"

Yu Po tugged at her clothes, squatted down in front of Sang Luan, and looked somewhat awkward.

The two were currently crouching in a corner of the room.

Sang Luan reached out and straightened Yu Po's clothes, her face full of confidence. "Don't worry, there won't be any problems. Just do as I just told you. No matter what, we must postpone the inspection time by three days."

Yu Po looked up, and when her gaze met Sang Luan's amber eyes, she felt a strange sense of security.

She nodded emphatically. "Don't worry, Miss, I will definitely complete the mission!"

Sang Luan nodded and reached out to push Yu Po.

Since she can't go out, it's the same as letting Yu Po go.

She had already given Yu Po some important words.

"Cough cough cough."

Suddenly, a loud cough echoed in the room.

Granny Xu looked around in confusion.

Huh, where did everyone go?

Yu Po instinctively grabbed Sang Luan's hand, her worry growing stronger in her eyes.

Sang Luan immediately grasped that hand back, "I believe you."

Immediately afterwards, Sang Luan stood up first, looking at Xu Mama with a beaming smile, "You're back?"

Xu Mama glanced at her with some suspicion, then took a small step and slowly walked towards Sang Luan's direction.

"What is the young mistress doing there?"

Just then, a faint sound rang out in the room.

"Ouch, ouch, that hurts so much."

Granny Xu frowned, held her breath for a moment, and listened carefully.

In the instant she focused her mind, she slowly walked to the corner.

In the corner, Yu Po was clutching her abdomen, rolling on the ground in pain, and making soft murmurs.

His lips were trembling slightly, and he looked extremely uncomfortable.

Granny Xu looked surprised. "What's wrong?"

Yu Po gritted her teeth and said in a trembling voice, "Please forgive me, Granny, my lower abdomen is really hurting so much..."

Xu Mama hesitated for a moment, glancing at Sang Luan, who looked worried.

She then looked away. "Young Madam, you don't mean to take her to see a doctor yourself, do you? Time is too tight right now, Young Madam doesn't have any extra time to waste."
