Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 482: Chapter 462: The Dormitory Struggle (Part One)

After military training had ended, Luo Qianqian triumphantly held the ’Outstanding Trainee’ award certificate as she returned to her dorm.

Qin Nuan had already prepared her meal, not just fried chicken drumsticks, but also fried chicken wings, and there was also ice-cold cola on the table.

Luo Qianqian chuckled, ”Nuannuan, you’ve worked hard.” And then she pulled Qin Nuan over and kissed her on the cheek.

”Hurry up and eat. By the way, where did you disappear to all of a sudden earlier?” Qin Nuan, looking at Luo Qianqian with a helpless smile, asked gently.

”Don’t even mention it.” Luo Qianqian displayed a look of grievance, ”My dear second brother dragged me away for a beating.” Luo Qianqian felt like crying but vowed she would never reveal that it was her buttocks that had been hit.

”You had it coming.” Qin Nuan chuckled, ”It must have been because of pulling off some dangerous stunt, right? But Cong Rong captured it on camera for you, so you can check it out when they come back from dinner, it was quite cool.”

”I also pricked him with a Silver Needle,” Luo Qianqian said, pulling out the Silver Needle that was hidden inside her clothing, ”It was given to me by your elder brother, and it’s pretty useful.”

”You!” Qin Nuan hadn’t expected this at all, and upon hearing that it was a gift from Qin Liang, she was even more indignant, ”I’ll have a word with big brother later.”

”You really deserve a beating!” Qin Nuan huffed and sat back on her bed. ”Eat up, I really shouldn’t care about you, hmph.”

”Hehe, I’m pretty skilled now, after all... Even Fourth Brother has been pricked by me. If I wasn’t good at it, the first to suffer would probably be Comrade Luo Yanran, whom I practice on,” Luo Qianqian stuck out her tongue and obediently sat down to eat.

Qin Nuan’s eyes went round in shock, and without thinking, she took out her phone and called Luo Yanran.

Luo Yanran answered immediately, sounding annoyed, ”Why didn’t you reply to my message?”

”Never mind that for now. Have you been pricked by Qianqian?” Qin Nuan hadn’t even checked her phone for messages, how could she know? For her, the current matter was of great importance.

”Pricked? Ah, you mean acupuncture. Didn’t I have a stiff neck before? It was quite effective, but don’t just let her practice on you, she even reads from the book while doing it; it sort of gives off a quack doctor vibe.” Luo Yanran’s words came through the phone and reached Luo Qianqian’s ears.

Luo Qianqian’s ears pricked up, her mouth pouting unhappily. What does he mean ’quack doctor’? Be careful, or this little lady will have her revenge; on your wedding night, you won’t be able to perform!

”It’s not me, ah, never mind it now, are you done with work?” Qin Nuan felt a bit more at ease after hearing this news. Although Luo Yanran was complaining, his tone was still full of trust.

”I’m at the airport; I have to move to a new place,” Luo Yanran said with dissatisfaction, ”I already sent you a message to tell you.”

”Isn’t this because of Qianqian’s performance? I wasn’t paying attention to my phone, and Qianqian also got beaten up by your brother.” Qin Nuan gossiped about the news she had just heard.

”What’s happened?” His voice amplified, Luo Qianqian almost wished she could bury her head in her bowl, looking at Qin Nuan with grievance.

Qin Nuan covered her mouth and snickered, showing concern with a few words before hanging up the phone. After checking and replying to the messages, she finally looked up to address Luo Qianqian, ”Finished eating?”

”I’m full from your annoyance, thank you,” said Luo Qianqian, full of discontent. ”I have so little privacy and you go telling him about it. Now, he will definitely ask Second Brother about it, and then my eldest and third brothers will start sending me their ’greetings’ ...”

”That won’t happen.” Qin Nuan truly didn’t realize that Luo Yanran’s status in the family was even below Baozi. Luo Qianqian was everyone’s treasure. If there was any chance to gossip, how could Luo Yanran let it slip away?

Sure enough, not twenty minutes later, two messages came in.

Luo Yanhai: I’ll help you get back at him later.

Luo Yanwu: Eldest brother will help you get back at him; you can skip him and introduce a sister-in-law to elder brother as revenge.

Luo Qhianqian highly approved of Luo Yanwu’s suggestion, but the only problem was that there were no candidates yet...

”Is there really news coming in?” Qin Nuan looked at Luo Qianqian’s helpless expression, opened her mouth, and disbelief was written all over her face.

Luo Qianqian spread her hands and lifted her cellphone for her to see, ”Otherwise? Except for your matters, he’s dying to start a gossip group about mine, even wanting the group name to be ’My Little Sister’s Trivial Issues’...”

Seeing Luo Yanwu’s messages, Qin Nuan couldn’t help but laugh, her lips twitching slightly. Is this what they call a brother setting a trap?

Was it really because of his gossip that they had to wait?

Just as she was about to say something, the people who had gone out to eat returned. Luo Qianqian had already eaten, but was leisurely nibbling on chicken wings.

Cong Rong handed the freshly-bought ice cream to Luo Qianqian, ”You did well,” but her smiling face held a bit of disapproval: ”It was just a bit frightening.” There was also some worry on her face.

Luo Qianqian hehe’d and feigned nonchalance, ”I had everything under control, no worries.” She then rolled her eyes at Qin Nuan.

Qin Nuan shut her mouth, not mentioning a certain matter, since Cong Rong wasn’t that close to Luo Qianqian, and Cao Yingying had also returned.

After finishing the chicken wings and the ice cream, she calmly wiped her hands before planning to get into bed.

Seeing that she didn’t even wash her hands, Qin Nuan knew she was deliberately causing trouble and sat on Cong Rong’s bed with interest.

”Who dumped this on my bed? Was my bed turned into a junk pile just because I wasn’t here for a day? Is there no space on the desk?” Luo Qianqian frowned and pinched a bag of cookies with her fingertips: ”Isn’t this the legendary kind with added industrial salt? Who hates me this much?” Then she picked up a bag of jelly: ”Industrial gelatin...” Setting it down, she then lifted a bag of chocolate: ”Trans fat... who hates me so much? Nuannuan, I want to go home and live, woo woo.” Pretending to be pitiful, she hid at Qin Nuan’s side and squeezed with Qin Nuan onto one bed.

”Pfft...” Qin Nuan chuckled, amused at how absurd the child could be.

Cao Yingying’s complexion changed a few times before she finally managed to smile and said, ”I bought these snacks for you. Don’t kids love snacks?”

”Heh, are you planning on turning me into a fatso? Then you should have bought what I like to eat. When have you ever seen me eat these?” Luo Qianqian coldly sneered with an indifferent face: ”Take them all away, don’t leave them on my bed. The food I eat will be prepared at home.”

”Right, I’ll prepare it,” Qin Nuan rolled her eyes—hadn’t she been the one buying their recent food?

Cao Yingying’s forced smile began to falter, but she managed to keep her voice from cracking, ”Qianqian, these are imported foods, they don’t have the things you mentioned...”

”Oh, I’m patriotic,” Luo Qianqian replied coolly: ”I support everything made in our country.”

Qin Nuan was speechless; her phone wasn’t domestically made.

Cao Yingying awkwardly packed up the items on the table. With so many people in the dorm, she didn’t offer to share—instead, she stuffed everything into her cabinet: ”Next time, I’ll buy you domestic products.”

”No need, I have money, and Nuannuan is here too. Don’t bother yourself,” Luo Qianqian sat on the bed and took out her phone: ”Besides, this eagerness to please—what do you want from me, or what are you plotting against me? I dare not accept it lightly; I wouldn’t want to be sold off and help count the money for my buyer.”

Cao Yingying’s actions were well-known as being aimed at Luo Qianqian, but no one had outright said it like this.

Everyone in the dorm was stunned.

But then they heard Luo Qianqian continue, ”Speaking of which, military training is over, and I should look into the matter of the posts from a few days ago.”
