"The people who buy it know it, the people who buy it know it, but the people who use it don't know it? What on earth is this?"

Everyone present was muttering silently.

Ding Mingcheng frowned and scratched his head, looking clueless.

Behind him, Sun Kai and Zhao Da, who were preparing to secretly help him, looked anxious at this time.

Like Ding Mingcheng, they had no clue.

For a moment, the place was quiet.

The lantern riddle he created was a brainteaser he played when he was in elementary school.

The most nervous person at this time should be Ding Mingcheng, who was constantly wiping away cold sweat.

He secretly scolded Chen Fan in his heart for why he was doing such a difficult thing?

If Ding Mingcheng couldn't guess, he would definitely hate Chen Fan and even the Su family.

Su Yi could only pray silently in his heart, Ding Mingcheng must guess it!

"Master Ding, haven't you figured out such a simple lantern riddle yet?"

Chen Fan looked at Ding Mingcheng with a mocking look on his face and said.

Hearing these words, Ding Mingcheng's face was as gloomy as a dark cloud, and his eyes were flashing with the flames of resentment and jealousy.

"Since Mr. Ding can't even guess such a simple lantern riddle, I have no choice but to tell the answer myself."

Chen Fan seemed not to notice Ding Mingcheng's angry eyes and continued to speak sarcastically.

As soon as these words came out, everyone present looked at Chen Fan.

Everyone wants to know what this thing is. People who buy it know it, and people who sell it know it, but only people who use it don't know.

"This thing is a coffin."

Chen Fan said with a smile.

Hearing this, everyone was stunned for a moment, and then they came to their senses.

After knowing the answer to the riddle, everyone felt that Chen Fan's riddle was indeed not difficult, but they just didn't think about it that way.

Everyone felt like they had been deceived by Chen Fan.

Even Ding Mingcheng felt the same way at this time.

"If you come up with another lantern riddle, I still won't believe that I can't guess your lantern riddle."

Ding Mingcheng rolled up his sleeves with a sullen face and said unconvincedly.

The people around him did the same at this time, and everyone looked unconvinced.

Chen Fan smiled faintly.

"Chen Fan, you must come up with the simplest one this time."

Before Chen Fan could speak, Su Yi came to Chen Fan and whispered.

"Father-in-law, please don't worry, my riddle is even simpler than the last one."

Chen Fan said with a smile.

These words also made Su Yi breathe a sigh of relief.

"There is a person who was born to your parents, but he is not your brother or sister. Who is he?"

Chen Fan looked at Ding Mingcheng and said.

Just looking at this mystery is very simple, but if you think about it carefully, everyone present frowned again.

He was born to his own parents, but he was not his brother or sister. Who could he be?

Su Yi was stunned for a moment. Didn't Chen Fan also say it was easier than the previous one? Do we think it will be more difficult than the previous one?

People around him began to scratch their heads and scratch their heads, and some even counted with their fingers.

"I know."

At this moment, Ding Mingcheng suddenly shouted loudly.

When Zhao Da and Sun Kai behind him heard this, they immediately showed doubts.

Because he didn't even guess it, did Ding Mingcheng guess it?

Everyone present also looked at Ding Mingcheng curiously.

"He's an illegitimate child, right?"

Before Chen Fan could speak, Ding Mingcheng spoke out excitedly.

When everyone present heard this answer, they all shook their heads silently.

"You still want to stump me with your lantern riddles, so just dream!"

Ding Mingcheng said as if he was a villain.

"Master Ding, if your father has an illegitimate child, then the illegitimate child is not your father's child."

"Since they are your father's children, they are your brothers and sisters!"

"Or are you saying, Master Ding, that you are not your father's child?"

Chen Fan asked with a smile.

As soon as these words came out, everyone present immediately looked at Ding Mingcheng.

After all, in Daxia, bloodline issues are a big deal!

"Chen Fan, what do you mean?"

"Of course I am my father's child."

Ding Mingcheng pointed at Chen Fan with a cold expression and said angrily.

"Chen Fan, you dare to slander Lord Ding, what crime do you deserve?"

At this time, Zhao Da also said angrily.

Looking at the furious Ding Mingcheng and Zhao Da, Chen Fan looked calm and even had a slightly thicker smile.

"Sorry, I'm just metaphorical."

"I believe that Mr. Ding is guessing lantern riddles today as a common man, so he will not argue with me."

Chen Fan said apologetically, but the proud smile on his face showed no trace of apology at all.

Ding Mingcheng couldn't hold Chen Fan accountable in front of so many people, otherwise he would be stingy.

He also realized that he had guessed wrong.

"Then why don't you tell me the answer to the riddle? If you can't tell the answer, then you are deceiving everyone, and I will punish you."

Ding Mingcheng said coldly.

Everyone looked at Chen Fan expectantly, wondering what the answer to this mystery would be?

Sun Kai also looked at Chen Fan with expectant eyes. He hoped that if Chen Fan could not tell the answer, then Ding Ming would have a chance to punish Chen Fan.

"The answer is myself."

Chen Fan said with a smile.

"Chen Fan, how could you be the answer to the mystery? You are fooling everyone!"

"Please also ask Mr. Ding to punish Chen Fan."

As soon as Chen Fan finished speaking, Sun Kai on the side said immediately.

Sun Kai was very excited and had already begun to imagine what it would be like when Chen Fan was imprisoned.

The people around me also subconsciously thought that the answer to the riddle was wrong when they heard these two words from me.

But when they thought about it calmly, they showed a look of surprise.

"Excuse me, Uncle Sun, are you the child of your parents?"

Chen Fan looked at Sun Kai and asked with a smile on his face.

"of course."

Sun Kai, who was still in excitement, said subconsciously.

"Chen Fan, what do you mean?"

But when he finished speaking, he realized that he seemed to have been scolded by Chen Fan.

He immediately asked in a cold voice.

"Are you your own brother or sister?"

Chen Fan asked with a smile.

Sun Kai stopped talking at this time, because he had realized that Chen Fan's answer to the mystery was correct.

The reason why he reacted so slowly was because he had been too excited and had lost his mind.

"Master Ding, you didn't guess it."

Chen Fan looked at Ding Mingcheng with a smile and said.

At this time, Ding Mingcheng was ashamed and angry, and his face was so dark that he turned purple.

"You are indeed amazing. I hope you can continue to be so amazing."

Ding Mingcheng looked at Chen Fan and said with a cold tone.

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Zhao Da and Sun Kai also followed him.

"Chen Fan, what happened to you just now? Do you know that you got into big trouble?"

As soon as Ding Mingcheng left, Su Yi said anxiously.

"My father-in-law is worried, and Lord Ding has a lot of people who won't argue with me."

Chen Fan comforted casually.

Seeing that Chen Fan was so unconcerned, Su Yi became even more anxious at this time.

"I'd better prepare some gifts for Mr. Ding! I hope he can calm down."

Su Yi sighed and said.

After saying that, he took Wang Wei and left directly.

Chen Fan originally wanted to persuade Su Yi not to waste money, but finally gave up.

He knew that his persuasion was in vain.
