Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 899: Chapter 879: Recruiting New Members (Part 5)

Nodding, then shaking her head, Qhianqhian pouted, looking displeased under Tang Tianyi’s slightly furrowed brow: ”I want to eat first.”

Caught between laughter and helplessness, he nodded, checked the time, rolled up his sleeves, and headed downstairs: ”What do you want to eat?”

Upon hearing this, Qhianqhian hurried to catch up: ”You can cook?”

”Uh, kind of.” After all... Luo Shufan, to save time, only orders takeout, which he’s sick of eating.

”Keep it simple for breakfast, nothing too greasy.” She didn’t specify anything, just stated her requirements, with a few smiles hinting that she’d eat whatever he made.

Waving the spatula in his hand, Tang Tianyi looked at her following into the kitchen and chuckled: ”You just wait outside, it will be ready soon.”

After all, he had heard a bit about Qhianqhian’s destructive power in the kitchen and didn’t dare to take risks.

”Okay.” Qhianqhian dutifully walked to the dining table, her face showing a bit of anticipation, leaning on the table.

Listening to Shijin’s noises, she twitched her mouth and went to feed them with vegetables.

”Why did you get up so early? You’re not a chicken!” Seeing Baozi’s original nest turned into a simple shed, Qhianqhian’s face showed an indescribable sadness, unsure whether it was because of Baozi or Jimo Cheng.

Sighing while feeding Shijin.

”Qhianqhian, so early?” Old Master Luo came out for morning exercise and was surprised to see Qhianqhian already up.

”Grandpa.” Qhianqhian was slightly startled, quickly greeted him, and looked at Old Master Luo with a cheerful smile: ”It’s so cold, yet you’re up so early? You’re awesome.” Saying this, she cozied up to Old Master Luo with a flattering smile.

”What? You want to plead for your uncle?” Looking at Qhianqhian’s expression, Old Master Luo’s face showed only the word: speechless.

”Walk with me.” Old Master Luo sighed, full of emotion, and began to walk.

Stepping on the snow, it made a creaking sound.

Qhianqhian obediently followed.

”Actually, I’ve known for a while; I just didn’t say it fearing your grandmother might take it hard.” After walking a distance, Old Master Luo finally spoke: ”I’ve seen that boy, not just once.”

Qhianqhian was slightly stunned, not expecting this, staying silent with her head down, unsure of what expression to have.

”Regarding your uncle, your grandmother and I never intended to force him on anything, considering your father’s situation is still fresh in our minds, why would we force him? Although we did try quite a bit earlier.”

”The person we’re truly worried about is you.”

Old Master Luo sighed, looking at Qhianqhian.

”Me? I’m doing great!” Qhianqhian was stunned for a moment and then quickly raised a smile, shaking her head slightly to demonstrate her good condition.

”At first, your grandmother didn’t agree to this arranged marriage; it was my decision.”

Qhianqhian continued to listen quietly without interrupting.

”However, that kid is really quite good.” Old Master Luo chuckled bitterly: ”He’s a good person with a good personality, his family background was good, has talent, and his character matches yours well, not the type to mess around...”

Listening to Old Master Luo’s praises, Qhianqhian’s eyes felt a bit sore; no matter how great he is, he is no longer her little fiancé.

”That’s all in the past.”

”That’s right, even if his family was still intact, Tang Tianyi has appeared anyway.” As a grandfather, how could he not see his granddaughter’s affection? He had made that decision with a heavy heart back then.

”Grandpa, if he were still in his original status, Tang Tianyi and I would only be friends, though he saved me...” Saying this, under Old Master Luo’s sharp gaze, Qhianqhian fell silent, speaking again only after a while: ”Saved my aesthetic sense.”

Looking at Qhianqhian with suspicion, this had nothing to do with aesthetic sense?

”Grandpa, let’s talk about the future later.” With so many things happening now, it’s hard to tell what’s right.

”Speaking of.” Old Master Luo lightly nodded, stopping the topic regarding the two young men. His gaze turned sharp: ”There’s been no news about Gongyang Chou or the Gongyang Family?”

Previously, someone was following his granddaughter, but now there’s no trouble, it seemed she had secrets too.

Old Master Luo sighed: ”Whatever you’re doing, protect yourself; your grandpa will always stand behind you.”

Firmly believing his granddaughter is a sensible person, Old Master Luo stated this without hesitation.

Qhianqhian curved her lips into a smile, gently shaking her head: ”Grandpa, I’m afraid of pain.”

So, how could she let herself get hurt?

Neither Old Master Luo nor Qhianqhian spoke further, stepping on the snowy ground making creaking sounds, leaving long rows of footprint pairs behind...

When Yue Tingyu got up, she was a bit dumbfounded by the aroma from the kitchen and quickly went to the kitchen front.

Tang Tianyi didn’t look up: ”Hungry? It will be ready soon, just wait a moment.”

Without a response, he raised his head, only to see Yue Tingyu, and his face immediately turned embarrassed, placing down the kitchen knife with a bit of blush: ”Hello, Grandma...”

What had he just said? Oh my.

”Cooking for Qhianqhian?” Yue Tingyu teased knowingly.

Tang Tianyi was stunned, then solemnly nodded: ”I made some for everyone.”

After Jimo Cheng’s matter passed, even if he agreed to pursue Qhianqhian after she came of age, he still needed to make his presence known to prevent such incidents from happening again?

After all, Jimo Cheng’s incident was only easily resolved because Luo Shufan discovered it.

Thinking of the various strategies he had used, his face was even more flushed.

And being caught by Qhianqhian; this was just too...

”Qhianqhian can’t be allowed in the kitchen; it’s good that you can cook.” Satisfied with Tang Tianyi’s cooking skills, Yue Tingyu nodded approvingly, with an expression of appreciation.

Tang Tianyi inexplicably relaxed and smiled, not bothering to explain.

Meanwhile, Qhianqhian also returned with Old Master Luo. Upon entering, Qhianqhian sniffed the air, her face full of anticipation: ”Smells delicious...”

”Only you have a sharp nose.” Old Master Luo helplessly laughed and scolded: ”Call Fourth Brother and Nuannuan down for breakfast.”

Qhianqhian happily responded and cheerfully went upstairs.

Qin Nuan, naturally, was called afterward, while Luo Yanran? He came out after getting himself ready.

Qhianqhian went upstairs just for show, leisurely wandering around before finally calling Qin Nuan.

Yawning and clearly unwilling to get up, Qin Nuan was pulled up by Qhianqhian: ”Finish eating and then sleep, as tired as you are, you won’t lose your sleepiness just from eating.”

Dragging Qin Nuan downstairs, they all sat at the dining table, with Luo Yanran still silent, Qhianqhian frowned and went upstairs again, directly opening her room door: ”Fourth Brother, time to eat.”
