Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 718: Chapter 698: Physical Examination Turmoil

Jimo Cheng immediately brought back two stones, and Luo Qianqian almost instantly felt the stone in Jimo Cheng’s right hand was much hotter than the one in his left.

Seeing Luo Qianqian’s expression, Jimo Kong didn’t even need to ask; he already understood.

With a puzzled face, ”It makes no sense, why would Qianqian have such an ability?” It was Jimo Cheng who had more contact with these matters. Even if such a thing were to happen, it seemed more likely that Jimo Cheng would face it, right?

They hadn’t cut it open to confirm yet, but Jimo Kong was already certain. The look in Luo Qianqian’s eyes just a moment ago was different; she clearly felt something unusual.

”You guys go ahead and play, I’ll verify this,” Jimo Kong said as he tossed the two people’s cellphones into Jimo Cheng’s arms, ”Go out and play, don’t disturb me.”

Jimo Cheng was pushed out of the study with a speechless expression, looking quite awkward in the eyes of Qin Nuan and Old Master Luo.

”What’s wrong?” Old Master Luo looked worried, his brows and eyes filled with anxious expressions, clearly very concerned about Luo Qianqian’s situation.

Luo Qianqian spread her hands: ”Grandpa Kong doesn’t want to play phone games with us, we’ll play ourselves, hehehe, come on, continue.”

She gave Jimo Cheng a look, and he calmly hung up Luo Qianqian’s call, redialed that number, turned on speakerphone, and placed the phone on the table.

After two rings, before they had started talking, they heard a different voice on the other end, ”Hello, your goods will be returned within two days, thank you for your cooperation, goodbye.” After saying that, they hung up, only hearing the beeping sound from the receiver.

Luo Qianqian and Jimo Cheng looked at each other, both puzzled. Wasn’t it different just now?

Qin Nuan was also baffled. The attitude was not like this at the beginning. How could it have changed so quickly? It wasn’t plausible; not much time had passed, did someone else find out about it? It couldn’t be possible. Besides themselves, who else could be so familiar with their affairs?

”Why do I feel like I’ve been played?” Qin Nuan said, puzzledly touching her head, feeling like this was a joke among friends.

Luo Qianqian shrugged and shook her head, her motions fluid.

”By the way, what kind of dresses are you two planning to wear? There’s a banquet at the Chu Family in a few days, and you two will represent our families,” Old Master Luo asked, lowering his head to think for a moment before changing the subject. After all, such nonsensical issues were beyond reason. There were no clues, no way to clear the confusion.

Luo Qianqian had some guesses, but she couldn’t speak them aloud. How could she say she felt someone at her bedside in the middle of the night? She would likely be told she was dreaming.

”Don’t worry, Grandpa Luo, I’ve already prepared Qianqian’s dress,” Jimo Cheng said, quite composed.

Luo Qianqian pouted, ”You better prepare a few more, I’m not feeling too good about it.”

By the time she was unaware of the matter with the Jimo Family, they already knew and had made their move against her. She could only feel a chilling coldness, right? How terrifying, even if the opponent were a Heavenly Immortal, she couldn’t have any good feelings towards them.

Qin Nuan nodded repeatedly, for that woman from the Chu Family, it was best to keep a distance... but she couldn’t openly discuss it with anyone other than Luo Qianqian.

Luo Qianqian was aware of this person and took precautions, but until she actually made a move, it would be considered a figment of the imagination; it would be too late to take precautions once something actually happened.

Thinking of Han Chen, Qin Nuan sighed again.

It wasn’t even the start of the school term yet, and she didn’t know the situation with Han Chen and Xiu Ran.

”Senior brother, make sure you prepare two sets of clothes for me; I have a fear of contamination, I can’t wear others’ clothes.” Luo Qianqian said seriously, ”And if it really comes to it, please take me away immediately.”

Can’t wear others’ clothes? Qin Nuan raised an eyebrow, knowing all too well that Luo Qianqian and that girl she grew up with used to swap clothes all the time.

Now it seemed impossible. Looking at Luo Qianqian’s height, Qin Nuan sighed, indeed, she still needed to take calcium supplements.

”Okay,” Jimo Cheng directly agreed without persuading Luo Qianqian or asking for a reason. He simply agreed right away.

Old Master Luo nodded in satisfaction but also deeply furrowed his brows.

It was good that Luo Qianqian was cautious, but for some reason, he always felt that Luo Qianqian was hiding something, something she hadn’t shared with anyone.

”Elder brother is the best.” Luo Qianqian said softly with a smile on her lips and eyes, ”Thank you, elder brother.”

Jimo Cheng merely smiled lightly and took a sip of his red tea.

”Luo Qianqian, I just realized something,” Old Master Luo suddenly called out very seriously.

Luo Qianqian, startled by her grandfather’s formal address, clumsily put the cake back on the coffee table and looked at Old Master Luo, ”What?” She was somewhat afraid that Old Master Luo had discovered her secret, but she wasn’t sure what he was about to say, so she forced a calm expression.

Jimo Cheng and Qin Nuan also frowned at Luo Qianqian’s startled reaction.

Both of them knew Luo Qianqian quite well and had their thoughts about her guilty demeanor.

”What’s going on with your arm?” Old Master Luo pointed at the spot where Luo Qianqian had her blood drawn, with a stern face.

Since it was still warm indoors, Luo Qianqian, worried about possibly touching the needle spot and causing an infection, had never rolled down her hoodie’s sleeve.

The blood drawing spot had already turned purple, and Luo Qianqian immediately pouted, ”Quack doctor!”

”What happened?” Old Master Luo, unable to bear seeing Luo Qianqian aggrieved, asked with furrowed brows, ”What kind of check-up were you having?”

”Nothing...” Luo Qianqian quickly waved her hands and nudged Qin Nuan.

Qin Nuan reluctantly extended her arm and rolled up her sleeve, ”We went to the hospital this morning to see a classmate. Who knew we’d run into my brother there, and he insisted on us having a check-up. It’s nothing serious.”

Seeing only a small bruise near Qin Nuan’s needle spot, Luo Qianqian felt it was unfair: ”They’re gentle with Nuannuan but so rough with me, quack doctor, quack doctor!!!”

Knowing it was just a check-up and not an illness, Old Master Luo also breathed a sigh of relief. Jimo Cheng also frowned. Earlier, the sleeve Luo Qianqian had rolled up had just fallen down, covering her arm, which prevented him from noticing it sooner, making him feel very guilty.

”Grandpa, why don’t you go for a health check-up too? It would be reassuring to know everything’s alright, wouldn’t it? Take Grandpa Kong with you,” Luo Qianqian quickly changed the subject, her eyes darting around.

Old Master Luo was momentarily taken aback and immediately waved his hand, ”No need, we are old now. What’s there to check? Even if something is discovered, it’s just a matter of being sooner or later, which would also affect our moods.”

Luo Qianqian immediately disagreed, her eyes rolling around, an idea forming in her head, ”Grandpa, don’t you want to see your great-grandson? The picture of children and grandchildren filling the hall, isn’t that wonderful?” Qin Nuan immediately bowed her head, her face flushing red.

Old Master Luo quietly watched Luo Qianqian.

Unaware, Luo Qianqian continued to tempt, ”Wouldn’t it be nice if you were healthy and could tell your great-grandson about your youthful heroic deeds? Pointing at grandma and saying, ’Back then, she was the belle of our compound, totally smitten by my dashing and suave demeanour, and she fell head over heels for me.’ Then you could brag to your old friends?” Her expression was so vivid, she might as well have added a couple of whiskers to play the role of Luo Guohui.

Little did she know, Old Master Luo was just quietly looking at her, his lips slightly parting, ”I’m more interested in my great-grandson.”

Luo Qianqian immediately blushed, sticking her tongue out at Old Master Luo, ”Then you need to stay healthy and always be with us, bring grandma along often for health checks, so your big uncles and second uncle can be at ease.”
