41 Lan Qis Father (2/2)

Qiu? What are you doing here?” Mingxia asked.

Zong Qiu's lips curled up and his eyes softened. ”Required to. What's happening here?” He turned around and studied the man in front of him. ”Isn't this General Lan? What brings you here?”

Lan Qi's father quickly recognized Zong Qiu and his face paled. ”T-this servant bows to the second prince.” The woman behind him also became pale and the smile vanished when she heard Zong Qiu's title.

”No need for all that, now tell me what's happening here.” Beads of sweat covered General Lan's forehead for he did not expect to meet the second prince here. ”This servant was only trying to tell his daughter to come home.”

”Your daughter?” Zong Qiu looked at Lan Qi who had was standing beside Mingxia. Lan Qi quickly placed her hand to her hips and curtsied. ”Lan Qi greet the second prince.” Zong Qiu merely nodded his head then brought his gaze to Mingxia.

”Xia er, tell me what happened.” He asked and Mingxia shrugged her shoulders. ”I was merely inviting my new friend to my house so we can have some girl talk.”

”I see. General Lan you wouldn't be against your daughter going to her friend's house right?” General Lan furiously shook his head. ”Of course not.”

”Good. You are dismissed.” Without waiting for their response, Zong Qiu waved his hand to send them off and two guard appeared beside them. ”Wait-what.” The guards carefully ”escorted the two adult and two children out of the building even though the children were doing their best to kick their faces.

Lan Qi stared at her family being pulled away and did not miss the expression on her father's face. Her father used to adore her when she was much younger but after he became permanently injured he no longer showed any signs of affection towards her. In fact he began to hate her and would use extreme punishments that traumatized her.

She quickly shook her head to stop her from remembering those times. She focused on Mingxia who was bickering with the second prince.

”You didn't have to some, i had everything under control.” Mingxia said.

Zong Qiu chuckled. ”Under control? I'm pretty sure if I hadn't stepped in they would still be here right now.”

”Zong Qiu, I advise you not to underestimate me.” Mingxia threatened, but Zong Qiu only laughed at her threat. ”Don't worry I never did.”

Mingxia raised one of eyebrows. ”Oh really.”

Lan Qi laughter easily got both of their attention and ended their conversation.

”Well then, I need to leave early today see you later Xia er.” Zong Qiu kissed Mingxia's forehead then went away.
