Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 532: Chapter 512: Who is the person behind the scenes? (24)

After Luo Qianqian returned to the dormitory, she didn’t say much, but smiled, set down the milk tea and rice, and said to Qin Nuan, ”Eat up quickly; you look spicy.” She thoughtfully inserted a straw into the milk tea and handed it to her.

Cong Rong casually took a cup of milk tea, looked at it, and then laughed, ”You two will definitely end up drinking your favorite flavors.”

Luo Qianqian looked puzzled, only to realize the four cups they had bought were of two flavors, each being her and Qin Nuan’s favorite. Overwhelmed with emotion, she said, ”Why isn’t Second Brother Qin my brother? Can I exchange him for Luo Yanran?”

”...I’d give you away for free.” Qin Nuan rolled her eyes, embraced her milk tea, and took several vigorous sips, satisfaction written all over her face, ”Ah, having delicious food and drink is just blissful.”

”Nuannuan,” Cong Rong suddenly frowned, ”Qianqian’s favorite isn’t blueberry flavor, right?”

Qin Nuan nodded in confusion, ”She likes a lot of flavors; blueberry is just one she doesn’t dislike.”

Luo Qianqian looked baffled. She was right here; why ask Qin Nuan?

”I was thinking, if someone were to tamper with the food again, targeting Qianqian, would they start from this angle?” Cong Rong pursed her lips, ”Like your favorite milk tea flavors. You like the original flavor, but Qianqian likes chocolate. Anyone spending enough time around you two would notice that,” she sighed with relief, ”But fortunately, it wasn’t about the most liked.”

Qin Nuan smiled meaningfully, ”Do you think this girl would be so foolish? From now on, she probably won’t touch anything that she didn’t buy herself or that isn’t properly sealed.”

Luo Qianqian agreed wholeheartedly, nodding her head. She now had too many things to be wary of. She always felt that anything related to Xu Yingying would put her at a disadvantage, so naturally, she had to be careful everywhere.

”So... later we should still...” Cong Rong was about to say something when she heard familiar footsteps. If not mistaken, it should be Xiu Ran. In the dorm, only Xiu Ran and Cao Yingying wore high heels, and they all knew that Cao Yingying was in the hospital.

As expected, in the blink of an eye, Xiu Ran appeared at the dorm door, looking somewhat surprised to see the three of them, ”Cong Rong is back, what are you eating that smells so good? Having a feast without me?” Although her tone was familiar, her expression was somewhat distant, as the dorm’s previous issues had not been resolved.

”You should try it too, I brought it from home.” Cong Rong smiled, sat back on her bed, sipped her milk tea, and looked at a magazine she had bought on the way.

”Sure... If I had known, I wouldn’t have eaten outside, I’m full,” Xiu Ran said, picking up a piece and seeing Qin Nuan eating joyfully, she also smiled, ”I won’t fight with Nuannuan over this.” She popped it into her mouth, squinting, ”Tastes as good as a restaurant.”

She stuck out her tongue, almost crying from the spiciness, then picked up the milk tea that already had a straw, took a big sip, and squinted, ”Chocolate, Qianqian’s, right?”

Luo Qianqian, feeling nothing amiss, nodded, pointing to the remaining cup of milk tea on the table, ”There’s also one cup just as you came back, let’s not tell Zhang Yun.”

”Not tell me what?” Zhang Yun had also just returned, surprised to see everyone in the dorm except Cao Yingying had also returned. She sniffed, saw the thermos in Qin Nuan’s hand, and her eyes lit up, then she averted her gaze.

”Not tell you about the milk tea...” Luo Qianqian smiled, ”There’s only one cup left, I won’t care, you guys can play rock-paper-scissors for it.”

Zhang Yun looked at the sealed milk tea, shook her head, ”I’ve been dieting recently, milk tea has too many calories, I shan’t drink it.” She directly passed it to Xiu Ran, who did not refuse, smiled, inserted the straw, and drank it up, especially since the piece of meat she had earlier was really spicy.

Cong Rong said, ”I brought back some tasty food; you should try it too.”

Zhang Yun paused, then looked towards Qin Nuan’s arms, her eyes flickering with longing, but she said, ”Don’t do that, I’m on a diet, I can’t throw all my efforts away.” She resolutely turned her head away, refusing to look in that direction again.

Luo Qianqian froze. Why, despite trying to lose weight, did she both crave and feel scared of a box of food? Shouldn’t she hate that it appeared right now?

Wait a minute...

Luo Qianqian’s expression subtly changed, which Qin Nuan immediately noticed, although her main focus was on the food in front of her. But that didn’t stop her from observing Luo Qianqian.

”Qianqian, eat quickly, it’ll get cold soon,” she said subconsciously, startling Luo Qianqian, who had been lost in thought.

Luo Qianqian heard her and immediately snapped back from her own world, replying with a mischievous face, ”Your stuff has been eaten by me already, like half of it, I’ll eat this new box.” Her expression was very normal, as if the previous daze was just an illusion.

Seeing Luo Qianqian’s reaction, Qin Nuan sighed in relief, but couldn’t resist teasing, ”Psh, all yours if you can finish it, big eyes but a small stomach.”

Luo Qianqian snorted, sat down on the chair, and opened the box normally, also enjoying the rice that Qin Wen had brought, eating contentedly and joyously, her expression revealing her mood.

Qin Nuan relaxed, but two people had expressions full of difference.

Zhang Yun was frowning heavily as she looked at Luo Qianqian and Qin Nuan, clearly baffled.

Xiu Ran was drinking milk tea, his face solemn, and for some reason, the dorm room fell into silence.

Cong Rong, from beginning to end, lay on her bed reading a book without looking up at any of them.

Everyone was clear, there was a traitor in the dormitory, but Cong Rong didn’t want to suspect.

Qin Nuan sat next to Luo Qianqian and also opened a box of rice, squinting her eyes happily while eating; her paper napkin was all stained with red oil.

The two kept eating until the sky turned dark, leaving behind only half a box of chili and two completely untouched boxes of rice. Luo Qianqian wiped her mouth with satisfaction and then packed up the trash, ”I can’t do this, I need to stretch my legs, ate too much.”

Qin Nuan hurriedly joined in, ”I need to walk it off too, eating too much will make me fat.”

Cong Rong laughed with a snort, ”Indeed, effort for beauty’s sake, right? Bring me back a bottle of milk on your way, I’m too tired from the trip, I won’t go.”

Hearing Cong Rong say this, Xiu Ran also said, ”I am not going either, I have to do laundry later, white clothes tend to discolor if just left.”

Zhang Yun, on the other hand, was indifferent, ”I have to go out too, so don’t bother bringing me anything, just take out the trash for me.”

Saying so, she took the trash bag from the trash bin and stuffed it into the bag Luo Qianqian was holding with the sealed boxes.

Luo Qianqian nodded, grabbed her phone and wallet and headed out the door, and Qin Nuan did the same.

As soon as they descended the stairs, watching Luo Qianqian toss the trash into the bin mid-air, Qin Nuan couldn’t hold back, ”Did you discover something?”
