Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 452: Chapter 432: Qin Nuan (Five)

”Why?” As she watched the two people leave, Luo Qianqian still looked unhappy, grinding her molars loudly.

”What?” Qin Nuan was slow to react, only understanding when she looked at Luo Qianqian, curling the corner of her lips, ”You think I’d let them off? No way, I’ll make them fall into hell. What if they hide and miss the great show I have arranged?”

”However.” Qin Nuan glanced sideways at the young police officer who had followed Second Brother Qin out, clearly displeased with his giving a towel to that woman, ”Why waste a towel?”

”Exactly.” Luo Yanwu, who had come to pick up Luo Qianqian on his temporary day off, also wore a face full of indignation. The grandparents had been sent home by Second Uncle because there wasn’t enough room in the car, so he stayed behind so his sister wasn’t alone.

”It’s not really a waste.” The young officer touched his nose, unsure how to respond to the girl’s complaint: ”After all, it can still be used to make a bed for a stray dog.”

”It could be toxic.” Qin Wen spoke coldly from the side, all those cosmetics had stained the towel, didn’t they?

The people looking to harm his sister would face no mercy from him, and now Luo Qianqian fell under the category of ’sister’ too.

”You’re right.” The young officer quickly nodded; as a friend, he knew very well that Qin Wen was a sister-protector.

”Officer uncle, can you not criticize them?” Luo Qianqian was still not feeling well, almost scaring Grandma into fainting; she’d forgive them — yeah right.

”Cough cough... you call Qin Wen ’Second Brother Qin,’ so why am I ’officer uncle’? He’s older than me.” The officer showed unhappiness, ”My name is Qiu Yu.”

”Don’t you have a sister named Qiu Xue and a brother named Qiu Bingbao?” Luo Qianqian rolled her eyes and shot back.

Qin Wen looked at Qiu Yu: ”How old are you, and you still let a young girl call you ’brother’?”

”Cough cough... aren’t you older?” Qiu Yu had barely recovered from Luo Qianqian’s sarcastic comment when Qin Wen left him lost for words.

”We have cousins in the family. Do you want to marry one too?” Qin Wen kept up his retorts, not pulling punches, ”The Luo family still has four others; our family has two remaining. Why don’t you go to Thailand for a change?”

Qiu Yu looked at his friend with mournful eyes.

Luo Qianqian was frowning, suddenly remembering something. She belonged to the Luo family; how dared they spread that message? What if they got caught? Wouldn’t that be terrible? Did they have a backup plan or were they so sure they wouldn’t be found?

Who the heck puts a transmitter in their phone? How could they be traced with the power off?

”By the way Ah Wen, Peter is back. When are we getting together?” Qiu Yu asked with a serious face.

Luo Qianqian, however, suddenly looked at Qin Nuan, a face of surprise.

Qin Nuan, puzzled, looked at Luo Qianqian, ”What’s up? Found money?”

”Sort of...” Looking at Qin Wen and Luo Yanwu instead of speaking directly, she calmly pulled out her phone to text Qin Nuan: Bitcoin!

Qin Nuan was also startled to see the message, her eyes filled with zeal as she looked back at Luo Qianqian.

”Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go home quickly.” Qin Nuan grabbed Luo Qianqian and hailed a cab, leaving the three confused men behind.

”What’s the situation?” Luo Yanwu had been back for less than two hours, first receiving some random kidnapping message, then a stint in the police station, and now being ditched by his sister on the street?

”Let’s grab some food first.” Qin Wen checked his phone and said calmly, ”They’ve gone to deal with some school stuff. I’ll drive you guys home in a bit.”

”What about me?” Qiu Yu looked dissatisfied as Qin Wen spoke to Luo Yanwu. Who is the buddy here?

”Get a cab.” Qin Wen said nonchalantly.

In the taxi, Qin Nuan’s eyes were glowing, ”I almost forgot about that, but I have never studied that algorithm.”

”Me neither, but now that you mention it, it seems we still have some time before it comes out...” Luo Qianqian awkwardly touched her head, Are we too excited?

”I remember it’s some time away too, but no worries, it’s good to remember this. Lucky you recalled,” Qin Nuan didn’t care, giggling, ”I dimly see us becoming tycoons.”

”I think you’re crazy.” You were already a tycoon, you know?

Driver: #Help, I picked up two lunatics. What should I do? It’s urgent and I’m waiting online#

”I just happen to have something I prepared earlier for you.” Qin Nuan didn’t care, ”Taking our three old men along doesn’t make for good eating either, let’s go home and order takeout.”

”Old, men?” Are you sure Qin Wen won’t explode when he hears you say that?

”Compared to you, I’m practically an old aunt.” Qin Nuan seemed indifferent, having friends who are too young can also be a hassle.

”Heh, don’t let Luo Yanran hear you say that.” Luo Yanran is her brother, and Qin Nuan insists on being an old aunt, wouldn’t that be taking advantage of Luo Yanran?

”How would he hear it?” Qin Nuan rolled her eyes, ”Unless you’re a traitor.”

Luo Qianqian turned her head to look at Qin Nuan’s cheek, the sunlight outside the car window shone on her face, making her look rather saintly.

”Nuannuan, what if...” Luo Qianqian suddenly spoke.

”What?” Qin Nuan turned to look at her.

”How about you dye your hair pink?” Luo Qianqian blinked her eyes, ”Commoner Girl A, haha.”

A black line crossed Qin Nuan’s face; she had played that game too and was extremely dissatisfied with it. Why? Because there was something called RMB players, like her, too many complaints, she would definitely never play it in her life, she strongly rejected it, even reservations didn’t get anything, it was disheartening.

”I was thinking, once your hair grows out, I could tie it into twin ponytails and take you out pretending you’re my daughter,” Qin Nuan said seriously.

Luo Qianqian rolled her eyes, ”Hey, no matter how mature you dress, no one would think you’re my mom because we don’t look alike, which reminds me, I don’t even look like my mom.”

”That proves you’re not her biological child,” Qin Nuan rolled her eyes. Reaching the community, Qin Nuan’s expression suddenly changed, and she said to the driver, ”Turn around, go to XX community first.”

Luo Qianqian glanced into the community and saw nothing unusual, except for a black car parked in front of the Qin family’s house, right at the gate. She hadn’t taken a closer look when the taxi turned around and left.

Luo Qianqian frowned, just about to say something when Qin Nuan picked up her phone, ”Brother, come directly to Qianqian’s house later, don’t go home.”

On the other end of the phone, Qin Wen, hearing his sister say this, agreed; after all, his sister wouldn’t harm him, it must be something in the community.

Something going on? Qin Wen’s expression changed; had those people come looking? They sure were quick.

But he didn’t care much, Luo Family’s place was safer than Qin Family’s.

”I’ll head over to your place later too,” he said calmly to Luo Yanwu, then ordered another plate of pork belly.

Three big men casually ate grilled meat in the midsummer heat.

”Oh.” Hearing Qin Wen say this, Luo Yanwu didn’t say much, as long as his sister was fine, he didn’t mind an extra person at home, especially since this person was his sister’s brother.

”Hey? What about me then? Boss, give me another plate of chicken wings!!” Qiu Yu called out to the boss, his eyes carrying a hint of depth.

The hint of icy tone in Qin Wen’s voice a moment ago had not escaped Qiu Yu’s notice. Although Qin Wen might not have realized it himself, as a longtime friend, Qiu Yu had, it seemed something had indeed happened.

Qin Nuan scoffed, ”Damn it, wait till this grandma sells off that crap company, even if it’s a fire sale, I won’t let them benefit!”

”I’ll buy it for one dollar,” Luo Qianqian laughed heartily, then dug out a coin.

”Forget it, I probably won’t make it till next time, I’ll go straight to school tonight. I’m not going to school these next few days, you be careful yourself.” Qin Nuan was gloomier than when she had just found out she had money.

Luo Qianqian rolled her eyes, ”What should I be careful of? What tactics can you use to please me? Handsome Man Plan? Heh, I’m still a child. Money? I’m not lacking. Threats? Do I look like someone who can be threatened? Unless they kidnap or intimidate me, but...” Things were different now, a year ago she certainly would have been terrified, but now, it’s like water under the bridge.
