"Hello!"

"Qin Ran, are you free tonight?"

"What's wrong?"

"I'd like to invite you to dinner tonight."

Qin Ran leaned back on the sofa: "You need my help with something, right?"

"I do need your help with something. I'll be waiting for you at Yuhua Restaurant at six o'clock tonight."

"Okay, we'll talk about it later."

After exchanging a few words, Qin Ran hung up the phone.

He roughly guessed what had happened.

The collaboration that Chu Wan'er failed to secure was won by Chu Qingcheng.

This family felt they had lost face and would certainly not let Chu Qingcheng off easily.

Especially Chu Wan'er's mother.

That woman is a gossip.

She will definitely try every means to make things difficult for Chu Qingcheng.

Time quickly passed and evening arrived.

Qin Ran drove to Yuhua Restaurant.

Once inside, he quickly saw Chu Qingcheng.

Qin Ran walked to the opposite side of Chu Qingcheng, pulled out a chair, and sat down.

Chu Qingcheng looks exceptionally beautiful tonight.

She wore exquisite makeup and a black sleeveless dress, which made her look very elegant.

Qin Ran has always believed that Chu Qingcheng is more charming than Chu Wan'er.

Aside from her less fortunate birth, she was in no way inferior to Chu Wan'er in any other aspect.

"You're here," Chu Qingcheng said with a smile.

"Speak, what do you want from me?"

"I'll ask the waiter to bring the food first, and we can chat while we eat."

Qin Ran nodded.

The dishes were served quickly.

The food at this restaurant was quite good and suited Qin Ran's taste perfectly.

"Can we talk now?" Qin Ran asked while eating.

"I'd like to ask you to help me collect a debt."

"Collecting debts?" Qin Ran looked at Chu Qingcheng.

"Yes, let me explain in detail."

Then, Chu Qingcheng recounted the details.

Previously, Chu's Group collaborated with another company to build a housing development.

The Chu Group provided the funding, and the other party deployed an engineering team.

However, Xie Menglong, the person in charge of the other company, directly absconded with 200 million yuan of Chu's Group's funds.

He claimed that his company had a financial problem and he was using this money to cover it up.

The money will be returned once the funds are available.

And then nothing more was said.

For this reason, the project has been delayed until now and is still not completed.

Xie Menglong, relying on his uncle's status as a seventh-rank martial artist and his connection to the Martial Arts Association, had no intention of returning the money.

The Chu family asked for it several times but failed.

After hearing this, Qin Ran asked, "Who told you to go and collect this money?"

"She is Chu Wan'er's mother." Chu Qingcheng lowered her head after saying that.

Qin Ran sneered; he had guessed right after all.

That woman was deliberately making things difficult for Chu Qingcheng.

"No problem, I can go and ask for it for you."

"Really? Thank you so much. But Xie Menglong's uncle is a seventh-rank martial artist, and he's a member of the Martial Arts Association. He's not easy to deal with, so you have to be careful," Chu Qingcheng cautioned.

Qin Ran put down his chopsticks: "These are minor issues. I will definitely help you get the money back, but how will you repay me? I won't help you for nothing."

The smile on Chu Qingcheng's face vanished in an instant after hearing this.

However, she could understand.

She didn't think that Qin Ran would help her just because she invited him to a meal.

Asking for help always comes at a price.

What do you want?

"Well..." Qin Ran began to sized up Chu Qingcheng across from him.

Realizing the other person's ill intentions, Chu Qingcheng subconsciously covered her chest with her hand.

"Don't make any unreasonable demands. I want to be Qin Shaohuang's woman. I won't give myself to any other man but him!"

Qin Ran couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Hahahaha, this is interesting, it's really too interesting!"

"Can you ask for something else?" Chu Qingcheng looked at Qin Ran with pleading eyes.

"Then pay me! How much can you give?"

"I have three million in savings right now, I can give it all to you," Chu Qingcheng said earnestly.

Qin Ran sighed, "Three million? You're too poor."

"You know what happened to me in the Chu family. I don't have much money." Chu Qingcheng lowered her head.

Qin Ran crossed his arms and leaned back in his chair: "Fine, I won't make things difficult for you. If I take away your only three million, you'll be left with nothing."

"How about this, you can give it to me when you have the money later, and give me ten million directly then."

Chu Qingcheng nodded repeatedly: "Sure, sure, I'll definitely give it to you when I have the money, or I can have Qin Shaohuang give it to you when I find him. He's the dark son of the Dragon Prison, he's definitely not short of money."

Qin Ran smiled and shook his head.

The woman in front of me is so adorably silly.

I don't know where she got her inexplicable confidence that Qin Shaohuang would definitely marry her!

However, it was precisely this confidence that attracted Qin Ran.

Suddenly, a voice came from behind Chu Qingcheng: "Oh! Isn't this Chu Qingcheng, the illegitimate daughter of the Chu family!"

The speaker was a woman dressed in an extremely flamboyant manner.

She was adorned with expensive jewelry from head to toe.

The handbag in her hand is also worth hundreds of thousands.

The woman's name was Cai Liya, and she was Chu Qingcheng's classmate from business school.

After the Chu family accepted Chu Qingcheng, they sent her to a business school to study.

At that time, Cai Liya looked down on Chu Qingcheng in every way.

At that moment, Cai Liya was holding the arm of a bespectacled man.

Chu Qingcheng turned around and looked very surprised: "Cai Liya, what are you doing here!"

"I'm here to eat with my boyfriend." Cai Liya changed the subject: "By the way, I heard from Chu Wan'er that the Chu family is going to marry you off to a convict. That convict isn't the man sitting across from you, is he?"

Qin Ran tilted his head and looked at Cai Liya.

This woman speaks in a sarcastic and sarcastic tone, and she seems like she deserves a beating.

"That's my business, it's none of your concern," Chu Qingcheng retorted.

Cai Liya sneered: "Looks like I guessed right. The man in front of you is that convict. You've really fallen into depravity, actually accepting the Chu family's arrangements."

"But then again, only a man like you, an illegitimate daughter, would want you, since you're inherently base."

Chu Qingcheng's anger surged: "Don't go too far. So what if you have a few stinking coins? What's so great about that?"

"You're right, I am rich. I could bury you in money. And look at you, you're completely naked, without even a decent piece of jewelry. How pathetic."

Just as Chu Qingcheng was about to retort, Qin Ran interjected, "Darling, don't lower yourself to the level of this snobbish trash who looks down on people."

"After we finish eating, I'll take you to buy some jewelry and bags. We can't let these scumbags look down on us."

Chu Qingcheng was stunned. Qin Ran wanted to buy him bags and jewelry. Was it true or not?

However, to be fair, he didn't actually own a single decent piece of jewelry.

"You stinking convict, who are you calling trash?" Cai Liya stared at Qin Ran.

"Whoever asks me, that's who it is. I can't even enjoy a meal properly, there are always some tactless junks who will come up to me on their own initiative." Qin Ran said this deliberately.

Cai Liya was about to start cursing, but then worried about losing her composure: "I can't be bothered arguing with you. You just said you were going to buy this illegitimate daughter bags and jewelry. Not that I look down on you, but can you even pull out five hundred yuan?"

"Every single thing my boyfriend has is something you can only dream of. You loser, you have no money but you still want to show off."

Upon hearing this, the bespectacled man immediately straightened his back.

He's just a nouveau riche.

Naturally, they cannot compare to the young masters of those prestigious families.

But compared to this convict, it's an absolute crushing defeat.

Qin Ran said with a smile, "Let me put it this way, the cheap, knock-off clothes you're wearing aren't even worth my darling's dog, but you treat them like treasures."

These words instantly enraged Cai Liya: "You fucking can't say anything nice! Kneel down and apologize to me right now, or I'll make you crawl out of here!"

Qin Ran slowly stood up.

He sneered, then raised his hand and slapped her.

Cai Liya was knocked back and staggered.

Meanwhile, the surrounding guests were giving them strange looks.

"Liya, are you alright?" The bespectacled man asked, then cursed angrily, "You filthy convict, how dare you hit someone!"

Without saying a word, Qin Ran went up and slapped him again.

The man with glasses had his gold-rimmed glasses knocked off.

Cai Liya was so angry that she let out a hysterical scream.

Their status was so noble, yet they were beaten by a convict.

This is a tremendous humiliation.

At this moment, all the guests in the restaurant turned their attention to this.

Who is this kid? How dare he cause trouble at Yuhua Restaurant?

It seems he doesn't know what role Zhou Yuhua plays.

Soon, a woman wearing a suit and sporting a neat short haircut walked over.

Two waiters followed behind her.

The visitor was Zhou Yuhua, the owner of Yuhua Restaurant.

Even in her thirties, Zhou Yuhua still retains her charm.

She knows many big shots in Xi'an.

It can be said that he has connections in both the legal and illegal worlds.

Moreover, she is also a martial artist.

Although she is a woman, people from all walks of life have to give her face.

When Cai Liya saw Zhou Yuhua coming over, she hurriedly went to greet her: "Sister Yuhua, you've come at the right time. This ex-convict is causing trouble in your restaurant. He just beat me and my boyfriend."
