Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 577: Chapter 557: Is Luo Yanwu Back Too?

Could it be the legendary underage grandson from Old Master Jimo’s family?

Luo Qianqian couldn’t help but twitch the corners of her mouth as she struggled to control her facial expressions. Why did it feel like Qin Wen already knew something? Instinctively, she had already typed out a line on her phone.

”Hehe...” Qin Wen instinctively avoided Luo Qianqian’s gaze, but his guilty demeanor said a lot.

Luo Qianqian narrowed her eyes and continued to type: The cake that’s your portion is mine too, hmph.

Qin Wen was speechless. Why talk of such an inconsequential punishment after so keenly noticing there was an issue?

”Alright,” Qin Wen said as he followed Qin Nuan to the side gate of the complex, where his car was parked. Seeing his sister standing in front of the car with her arms folded, he sighed, put Luo Qianqian down on the ground, then took out his keys and opened the car door.

Qin Nuan swiftly opened the rear door, tossed the bags inside all at once, then got in and patted the seat beside her, ”Sit here quickly, Cong Rong. Let my brother take care of Qianqian. After all, he’s a professional brother.”

Qin Wen didn’t know what expression to make. Although he had taken care of Qin Nuan since she was young, it didn’t mean he was professional, right? But undoubtedly, he was more reliable than Qin Nuan, who currently had Luo Yanran on her mind.

He picked up Luo Qianqian again, opened the passenger door, settled her in, buckled her seat belt, then finally caught sight of the phone that was almost smashed against his face, grabbed it, and saw the message: I’m saying I can’t speak, not that I’m paralyzed!!!

Qin Wen raised an eyebrow, handed the phone back to Luo Qianqian, shut the car door, got into the car from the other side, closed the door, buckled up, and started the car—all in one fluid movement. As he reversed out of the parking spot, he said, ”You haven’t settled with me about running away from the hospital yet, so just stay put.”

Luo Qianqian had nothing to say. She indeed had snuck out, but she certainly wasn’t immobile, right?

”Qianqian has never been taken care of like this before, right?” Qin Nuan saw Luo Qianqian’s discomfort and naturally followed up, ”Qianqian has always been sensible from a young age. Not to mention Luo Yanran and those other brothers, even Luo Shufan might not have taken such care of her.”

Luo Qianqian’s face became even more uncomfortable, she pouted but didn’t speak.

A hint of tenderness flickered in Qin Wen’s eyes. Such a child was adorable. Look at Qin Nuan; she had grown up and didn’t even prepare chocolates for him and his elder brother on Valentine’s Day anymore. In the past, everyone in their family used to have Nuannuan brand chocolates.

”Second Brother, are you taking care of Qianqian like this because you’re eyeing someone to introduce to Big Brother as a girlfriend? Are you tired of me? Should I introduce one to you?... Ouch, Qianqian, everyone in the dorm, and you’ve been through them all?” Qin Nuan was originally speaking cheerfully, but her face turned a bit strange.

Qin Nuan herself was Luo Yanran’s girlfriend, Cong Rong had been introduced to Luo Yanwu by Luo Qianqian, Zhang Yun seemed to be progressing quite well with Lin Jiayou, Xiu Ran... had a boyfriend, and Cao Yingying also had... her own unspeakable issues.

Qin Wen couldn’t help but smile when he saw his sister’s expression in the rearview mirror, ”You look at her, then look at yourself.”

”What’s wrong with me? You guys are just too old. If you were younger, I would have introduced Qianqian to you, wouldn’t I?” Qin Nuan had a serious look on her face, and Qin Wen just laughed, ”You really think so. So, do you want to be her sister-in-law or have her as your sister-in-law?”

Qin Nuan’s brain froze, her expression blank as her hand went to her fingers, ”I am Qianqian’s Fourth Sister-in-Law; if Qianqian marries Qin Wen, she would be my Second Sister-in-Law. So should Qianqian call me Fourth Sister-in-Law or little auntie? Forget it, the thought of calling Qianqian ’Sister-in-Law’ just creeps me out.”

Luo Qianqian rolled her eyes and uttered a single word disdainfully, ”Go away!”

”Do you think your brother looks like someone who would commit a crime?” Qin Wen was speechless. Setting aside this complicated sister-in-law relationship, he was twenty-four this year, and Luo Qianqian was fourteen, a ten-year gap!

”That...” Qin Nuan had a look of dodging the question, ”You’re the professional one, so don’t ask me. Aren’t you clearer about legal and criminal matters?”

Qin Wen pursed his lips, not wanting to talk to his sister anymore. How could she be so out of tune?

How did he, a perfectly good young man, become a delinquent in the mouth of Qin Nuan?

Is it the kind where you know the law but break it anyway?

Cong Rong smiled faintly as her lips pursed, her phone suddenly lit up, she startled, and then unlocked her phone to see that jumping remark, startling once more.

”Quick, pick it up, what are you thinking about?” Qin Nuan, sitting beside Cong Rong, obviously saw the name on her screen.

”Hello?” Cong Rong took a deep breath before answering the call, only to find that the first words that sprang from the other side were...

”Qianqian isn’t at the hospital, do you know where she went?”

Luo Qianqian turned around with an apologetic face; this clueless Luo Yanran. It was almost Qixi Festival, and he was asking about the whereabouts of a little kid?

”Yeah, Qianqian is with me and Qin Nuan, Second Brother Qin is driving,” Cong Rong said with a poker face, a touch of embarrassment inexplicably passing over her features.

”Where are you guys now? Is Qianqian alright? Is it serious? And what about that stupid blockhead Luo Yanran?”

As soon as the voice on the other end fell, the three people in the car couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

Luo Qianqian’s face was full of mirth, her mouth opened wide in an exaggerated fashion as she bent forward clutching her stomach, but making no sound, just like a scene from a silent film.

Qin Nuan covered her mouth, trying her best to conceal her expression, yet her red cheeks and eyes, brimming with laughter and tears, betrayed her amusement.

Qin Wen, on the other hand, laughed out loud without any reservation. After all, he seriously considered the future brother-in-law to be a bit silly, but it was all for his sister, and whatever he did was understandable. If it had been his sister who had gotten hurt while protecting him, regardless of whether she had triggered the situation, he would risk everything to protect her.

”Ah, why’s someone laughing? Where are you going? Is Qianqian with you?”

”Yeah, Qianqian is here, and now we’re heading to...” Cong Rong looked at Qin Nuan as she spoke.

Qin Nuan nodded in understanding, leaning in close to the phone and saying, ”We’re going to your grandfather’s house.”

”Did you hear that?” Cong Rong remained composed, not repeating herself.

”Yeah, see you later... I took leave for today and the day after tomorrow.”

After the call, Cong Rong was still puzzled.

Qin Nuan nudged her with a grin: ”Now you don’t have to envy me, right?”

Luo Qianqian in the front seat displayed a scornful hand gesture; these two, shrouded in pink bubbles, were surely picking on her, the one who could only obediently go to school.

”Oh, right, Qianqian, I asked for leave for all five of you this afternoon at the police station,” Qin Wen spoke calmly from the side: ”For you three, Elvis, and Xi Ming, and I also invited those two young boys to join us for Friday’s party.”

Luo Qianqian subconsciously touched her neck; in her current state...

”Ah, that’s nothing serious, roll some eggs on it when you get home, and then you can’t eat anything spicy, you’ll need to eat a liquid diet for a few days.” Qin Nuan had noticed Luo Qianqian’s gesture and quickly explained: ”The reason they wanted you to stay in the hospital was Elvis’s request; my brother also found someone named Hu Shuo to give you an examination.”

Luo Qianqian subconsciously looked at her arm, then at the dim light inside the car, indeed, another patch of green and red.
