Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 457: Chapter 437: Qin Nuan (10)

”Let’s head home,” Qin Nuan suggested, seeing that they were not getting any news and decisively opting to return. However, Luo Qianqian interrupted her with a sentence, ”Seems like I still need to go to school?”

”You didn’t bring your luggage, so you need to go back and get it,” Qin Nuan remembered. Luo Qianqian had just completed registration, and in a few days, school would start, along with the brutally inhumane military training for freshmen.

”Right.” Luo Qianqian slumped in her seat, not wanting to move at all, and turned her head to look at Luo Yanwu, ”Third brother, how can I avoid military training?”

”If you don’t want to suffer, just go to the military training obediently. The reasons you can skip military training are only a few: a broken leg, surgery... which one can you accept?” Luo Yanwu teased Luo Qianqian while driving, remembering how she used to yearn to tear apart her wheelchair.

”Can ’the removal surgery of body terminal cells’ work?” Luo Qianqian blinked her eyes.

On the other hand, Luo Yanran frowned, wondering where Luo Qianqian had been feeling unwell lately.

Qin Nuan intervened from the side with a sigh, ”Are you planning to cut your nails or your hair?”

As soon as she finished speaking, Luo Yanran rolled his eyes at Luo Qianqian, finally catching on that this kid was just looking for an excuse to be lazy.

Luo Qianqian giggled, ”Don’t always expose me. But seriously, I am planning to grow out my hair.” She touched the little ponytail she could now barely tie into a rabbit tail, feeling nostalgic for her waist-long hair from the past.

”Oh,” Qin Nuan rolled her eyes, ”Which ’someone’ likes long hair?” The ’someone’ she referred to was obviously Xu Tianyi; since Luo Qianqian didn’t want her to spill the beans, she would keep it to herself.

Who knew Luo Yanwu would raise an eyebrow, ”My sister looks good with long or short hair.” Then, glancing at Luo Qianqian, who lay sprawled in her seat looking like a master through the rearview mirror, he casually asked, ”Did Xu Tianyi say that?”

”Third brother, just drive, don’t be nosy,” Luo Qianqian rolled her eyes. It would have been better to directly say the name. Being so vague made it seem as if it were true.

Then, she touched her fingertips, ”I feel long hair looks more elegant and alive in photos.”

”That’s true, look at the ancient beauties, which one has short hair? But it seems the men also had long hair...” Qin Nuan began to agree but then noticed a flaw in her own reasoning.

”The ancients revered the hair and skin received from their parents; I’m curious if their hair never split ends? And did they not disdain their hair when it turned yellow and straw-like?” Luo Qianqian’s eyes sparkled as she touched her hair, ”If I go back in time, I’m definitely opening a beauty and hair care salon—I would make a fortune.”

”Have you lost your mind? Beauty and hair care, do you even know how? Let’s not even discuss whether you know how to do it, did ancient times even have conditioner and shampoo?” Qin Nuan didn’t hesitate to burst her bubble.

”I was just saying,” Luo Qianqian’s enthusiasm visibly deflated; she had said it on a whim.

”The key is, there wasn’t even running water back then, you would have to boil the water yourself,” Luo Yanwu, having listened all this while, finally understood his sister’s intent and added his thoughts.

Luo Qianqian completely abandoned the idea then.

After the three of them returned home, and before they could start preparing the bedding rolls to take to school, Hu Si sent a message: Pregnant, seven weeks.

”Nuannuan, wow, she’s pregnant,” Luo Qianqian got excited.

”Why are you so excited? It’s not your child,” Qin Nuan, struggling to contain the overly excited Luo Qianqian, pushed her away and began calculating, ”It’s the end of August now, about two months ago? So, something happened in early July? She was still in school... It’s hard to say whose child it could be...”

”Isn’t it easy? Just see who she looks for first, and we’ll know,” Luo Qianqian blinked, serious, ”As a mother, you wouldn’t be unaware of who your child’s father is, right?”

”What child?” Luo Yanran, just coming downstairs, overheard his sister talking about dads and moms and kids and quickly asked.

This one sentence directly blew the two old people out of the room, ”What child? Is Nuannuan pregnant?”

”What? Nuannuan?” Luo Yanran was completely shocked.

Qin Nuan, speechless, held her forehead, how did it suddenly become like this? Looking toward Luo Yanran, ”We were talking about the protagonist of yesterday’s incident, don’t randomly pin this on me, wouldn’t my brother beat you to death if he knew?”

Only then did Luo Yanran feel relieved and chuckled foolishly.

Qin Nuan rolled her eyes, ”Luo Qianqian, you better hurry to school, if you don’t leave soon, I’ll send you on your way.”

”Right.” Luo Qianqian quickly went back to her room, took out the quilt she had prepared, carefully packed it, and went downstairs. Luo Yanwu directly took over, and the siblings silently planned to head out.

But Qin Nuan followed, ”I’m going too.” Having just mentioned something about a child, she really didn’t want to stay at home now, enduring the looks from the two old people, especially with Luo Yanran, who often played the fool, she couldn’t stand it any longer. She directly grabbed the backpack from Luo Qianqian’s hand and followed them into the car, without giving Luo Yanran a single glance.

Luo Yanran stretched out his hand, but ultimately he gave in under the gaze of his sister, who was waiting for him to speak, and sighed, ”Come back early.”

Luo Qianqian nodded and got into the car.

Luo Yanwu watched amusedly as Luo Yanran, who clearly wanted to pull Qin Nuan out of the car, stepped on the gas and left.

Luo Qianqian looked at Qin Nuan, ”Is it really okay for you to go to school? What if that person follows you there?”

”Then let him follow. There are so many people at school, does he still want to kidnap me? If I don’t go and someone comes back to the dorm and chases you out...” Qin Nuan’s phone rang, and she took it out, a smile appearing on her face as she began to reply to the message.

Seeing Qin Nuan’s expression, Luo Qianqian didn’t even have to guess to know that the message was from Luo Yanran.

”Qianqian, I just thought of something.”

”What?” Luo Qianqian looked at Luo Yanwu, who was driving, with a curious look in her eyes.

”Your high school military training was attended by my brother, right?”

The ”brother” Luo Yanwu referred to was naturally his own older brother, Luo Yanhai.

”Yeah, that’s right. And he even got me a backdoor deal, so I rested well.” But thereafter, there wasn’t a single peaceful day.

”Then it stands to reason that I should be reckless at least once, why won’t grandfather let me?” Luo Yanwu grumbled, pounding the steering wheel. He couldn’t even say a harsh word to his sister at home, and now that he had the rare chance to command, grandfather wouldn’t allow it.

”Could it be, third brother wants to command me? You don’t need military training for that; you can do it anytime.” Luo Yanwu’s thoughts were apparent on his face, and Luo Qianqian teased him.

”No way.” Luo Yanwu immediately denied it, but his ears turned a slight red because Luo Qianqian had pointed out what he was thinking.

Luo Qianqian didn’t argue, just sat there smilingly, watching the street scenes flash by the car window.

Luo Yanwu didn’t speak either. His sister was still young, but she had already experienced so much, and he didn’t know what kind of challenges would stand in her way in the future.

Qin Nuan and Luo Yanran were chatting hotly, and in no time, they had completely forgotten about the recent child incident.
