Urban Omnipotent Son-in-law

The hall was silent. Obviously, everyone had no objection to Qih Jiren's way of handling things.    

    

Seeing no one speak, Qih Jiren let out a sigh of relief. He then looked at Qih Meimei and could not hide his disappointment.    

    

"As for you, go and think of a way to apologize to that lord. If the negotiation is not right, you will have to do it yourself. Qih family, there won't be anyone like you in the future."    

    

"Even if it's settled, don't talk about it anymore. The city lord has come to ask for his son's hand several times. I have never agreed to it. After this matter is over, you can come with me to the City Lord's Mansion and walk around..."    

    

Below, Qih Meimei's face was as white as a sheet of paper.    

    

The city lord's family was a famous profligate son. Because of this, she had never agreed to it. But this time, it seemed that she could not avoid it.    

    

Her heart was dead. Qih Meimei bitterly lowered her head, but she could only say,    

    

"Daughter knows."    

    

...    

    

Shaoqing.    

    

With so many things happening, the meeting ended. The higher-ups and elders quickly left to handle their own matters, build relationships, order ships, and settle the losses. None of these matters could be delayed.    

    

Qih Meimei also quickly left in a daze.    

    

As a result, only Qih Jiren and Qi Feng brothers were left in the hall.    

    

After everyone had left, Qih Jiren revealed an embarrassed look. His face could not hide the pain in his heart. He glared at Qi Feng who had walked to his side and said angrily,    

    

"Look at how this girl is like. Isn't she spoiled by all of you?"    

    

Qi Feng smiled bitterly and did not dare to explain.    

    

However, he could not help but mutter in his heart: Right, it's all our fault. But without your nod, Elder Hsu and I... Who's going to let this girl do whatever she wants?    

    

It was pointless to dwell on what had already happened. Qi Feng suddenly changed his mind. Qi Feng suddenly frowned and said, "Do you really want to marry Meimei to that young master?"    

    

The one in City Lord's Mansion was famous. He was a playboy who spent all his time in the Flags of Flowers Tower.    

    

"What else can you do? Do you have any other way to protect this girl?" Qih Jiren looked up and smiled bitterly.    

    

He did not want his daughter to marry such a scumbag, but he could not think of any other way other than this. He could not think of any other way to protect his daughter.    

    

"That's not right."    

    

Just as Qi Feng was sighing, Qih Jiren's eyes lit up again. There's another way. Let's see if this girl can seize this opportunity..."    

    

Qi Feng was stunned. It did not take him long to figure it out. However, he could only smile bitterly. He did not think that there was a possibility of success in this method.    

    

...    

    

On the small road outside the outer courtyard of Qih family.    

    

Qih Meimei walked in a daze. Suddenly, she gritted her teeth and pulled out the long sword from her waist. With a wave of her hand, she cut off a towering peach tree beside the stone road.    

    

After venting her anger on the tree, she looked up hatefully and looked somewhere. She said loudly, "If you have the ability, just keep hiding and don't come out to see me!"    

    

"Hey, my little aunt."    

    

After a hoarse sigh, behind the high wall, a figure in a black robe flashed past the high wall and walked towards Qih Meimei. It was Elder Hsu.    

    

After coming over, Elder Hsu couldn't help but look at the broken peach trees on the ground. He said in pain,    

    

In this life of mine, it's good that this peach tree of yours, Qih family, produced peach wine. You've steeled your heart and made me feel itchy for the rest of my life."    

    

"Serves you right!"    

    

Qih Meimei angrily snorted.    

    

"No. The one who wanted to punish you is not this old man. What kind of anger did you have with me?" Elder Hsu said gloomily.    

    

"You still say!" Qih Meimei glared at the old man in front of her and became angrier. "Just now, you were clearly outside the hall and heard everything. You didn't come out to say a word for me. Do you really want me to marry that ignorant and incompetent young master?"    

    

"To think that you are still my master!"    

    

Elder Hsu smiled leisurely. "Don't talk about it. You always talk about you. I almost forgot that I am your master."    

    

Qih Meimei could not help but look embarrassed when she heard that, but she still quickly said. "At most, I will call you whatever you want me to call you in the future. But now is the time to talk about this?"    

    

"Then what else do you want me to do?"    

    

Elder Hsu narrowed his eyes and smiled. "This is a family matter of your Qih family. I am an outsider. What are you trying to do?"    

    

"It doesn't matter." Qih Meimei snorted and still thought, "You are an elder of the Heavenly Sword Sect. Even City Lord has to give you some face when he sees you. I don't believe that if you want to protect me, how can my father not agree?"    

    

As she spoke, she became even more angry. She stomped her feet heavily and said with grievance, "Humph, he just hates me. If he isn't a son, grandfather can't see me either. All of you are the same. All of you think that I'm a girl! "    

    

Seeing that the girl was getting more and more energetic, Elder Hsu's expression could not help changing. He called out in a low voice:    

    

"Stop messing around. Hurry up and keep quiet."    

    

Seeing that Elder Hsu was getting serious, Qih Meimei calmed down a little. However, she was still angry. Elder Hsu was helpless. He sighed and said,    

    

"Silly girl. If these words spread to your father and your grandfather, they won't be afraid of hurting their hearts."    

    

"Hmm?" Qih Meimei looked up in confusion.    

    

Elder Hsu immediately said angrily, "You don't want to think about it either. I have an old relationship with your grandfather. Back then, your grandfather asked me to pick a junior from the Qih family to teach him. If he didn't tell me in secret that he would choose a girl like you as his disciple?"    

    

The Heavenly Sword Sect never accepted female disciples. Qih Meimei would never be able to inherit his position as an elder in the future. To put it bluntly, he had been nurturing her wholeheartedly for so many years. In fact, it was just a fluke.    

    

"But even if you are a girl, has this old man ever mistreated you?"    

    

Qih Meimei thought about it seriously and shook her head forcefully. Everyone in the younger generation of the Qih family, including the entire Lanhai City, envied her for having an elder of the Heavenly Sword Sect as her master.    

    

Among the younger generation of the Lanhai City, she was not the only girl to be married to. In fact, she was the only one who had sex with the city lord. It was because Elder Hsu had once said that he would only take in one disciple in his life.    

    

She had never felt that Elder Hsu had mistreated him.    

    

Seeing that the girl had finally figured it out, Elder Hsu nodded and said, "Tell me about your father."    

    

"Do you think your father is willing to let you marry?"    

    

"Isn't that so?" Qih Meimei immediately stared back and asked. Usually, when her father saw him, he never said anything good. Several times, she suspected that she was not his biological daughter.    

    

Elder Hsu rolled his eyes. "All fathers are like this. The reason why I'm strict with you is because I have too much expectations for you. Usually, when a distant relative goes to your family, your father will be sad for a long time. Not to mention, he has raised a daughter for more than 20 years. In the future, she will be sent to someone else's house. I will not see her for a long time."    

    

Qih Meimei suddenly quietened down. She blinked her eyes and quietly listened.    

    

It's hard for your father too. If he wants to keep you, he can only let you step into the affairs of the family. But for a girl, wanting to stand out is very difficult. He was afraid that you would be wronged outside, so he refused to agree."    

    

"In the end, it wasn't easy for him to agree, but you kept causing trouble for him..."    

    

For example, this time, Jiren really can't protect you anymore. He can only marry you out and let you have a backer. If he doesn't agree, will the higher ups of your Qih family let you go easily? "    

    

"Girl, you should know something now."
