Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 919: Chapter 899: Awakening

”Sky Inquiry?” Qhianqhian looked puzzled.

”It’s that sword.” The old man looked at Luo Qianqian with disdain: ”You didn’t know that?” He had a ’how can you be so clueless?’ expression on his face as he looked at Luo Qianqian.

Luo Qianqian frowned. How could she know? This isn’t something you’d learn in school.

Her face was serious: ”What is this ’Sky Inquiry’?”

”A Spiritual Artifact!” The old man looked at Luo Qianqian with annoyance: ”How are you so clueless?”

Feeling a blackout in front of her eyes, Luo Qianqian was bewildered. A Spiritual Artifact? What’s that?

Why does it feel like the upcoming events will refresh her worldview again?

Forcing herself to stay calm, Luo Qianqian still didn’t press further, instead, she looked at the old man: ”Then how can he wake up? Acupuncture or something?”

”Do you think acupuncture is a cure-all? According to records from who knows which era... what? That boy...” The old man was about to say something but then looked surprised. Luo Qianqian was startled, immediately coming out of her cultivation state, turned her head to look and saw that the previously unconscious Tang Tianyi had already opened his eyes.

She rushed over anxiously, leaning on the side of the bed, grabbing his hand with her right hand: ”How’s it going? Do you still recognize me?” Tears uncontrollably poured down.

”Uh...” Tang Tianyi blinked his eyes, staring intently at Luo Qianqian’s face, his eyes flickering with a gleam, frowning: ”Who are you? Who am I? Where is this place?”

Luo Qianqian heard Tang Tianyi’s voice, understood the meaning of his words, and was incredulous: ”You don’t remember who you are?”

Tang Tianyi reached out and rubbed his temple: ”What happened to me?”

After being stunned for a long time, Luo Qianqian sank to the ground, wiped away the tears, and forced a smile: ”You are... a high school student. You just had a car accident, so you might have hit your head and temporarily forgotten everything... I, I’m your...”

”Then you must be my desk mate, my childhood sweetheart.” Tang Tianyi suddenly smiled, sat up, and rubbed Luo Qianqian’s head, smiling: ”I was just kidding, get up, the ground is cold.” Yet there was a look of distress in his eyes.

He said it casually following Luo Qianqian’s words, but he didn’t expect Luo Qianqian would really believe it... does she plan to arrange the future for him? Is she hoping he could live as a normal person? Unfortunately...

Luo Qianqian was dumbfounded, being pulled up from the floor by Tang Tianyi, sat on the hospital bed, sniffled, wiped away the tears, pointing at her nose: ”Then who am I?”

”You are Luo Qianqian.” Tang Tianyi dared not tease her anymore, promptly putting on a serious face.

Luo Qianqian pouted, then burst into tears, lying on the bed: ”Do you know how worried I was about you?”

”I know, I’m sorry.” Tang Tianyi paused for a long time before speaking, sighed, reached out, and then his face became a bit serious: ”Qianqian, where’s ’Sky Inquiry’?”

After the old man’s hints earlier, Luo Qianqian naturally knew what that thing was, after a long pause: ”In brother’s trunk.”

”That’s good...” Tang Tianyi let out a sigh of relief, then looked at Luo Qianqian with a strange expression: ”Wait, you know...?”

He had never mentioned what ’Sky Inquiry’ was.

Luo Qianqian was taken aback, then nodded her head with a peculiar expression: ”I can roughly guess.”

With some realization, indeed, Luo Qianqian is this clever.

”Then you...” Aren’t you asking?

Tang Tianyi had a touch of doubt on his face, but he still suppressed it, maintaining his calmness.

Luo Qianqian looked at him and after a long pause, she lowered her head and said slowly: ”You’ll tell me when you want to, I trust you.”

Hearing these words, Tang Tianyi’s eyes lit up with a gleam, but Luo Qianqian lowered her head and couldn’t see it.

She wasn’t confident that Tang Tianyi would definitely tell her, after all, now, it felt like nothing was under control.

”When the time is right, I’ll tell you.” As if aware of Luo Qianqian’s feelings, Tang Tianyi held her hand, his face a bit gentle: ”Trust me, okay?”

She nodded lightly, a smile rising at the corner of Luo Qianqian’s mouth.

”Get some rest, you can ask brother for the things when you are discharged.” Luo Qianqian looked at the steel plate on her hand, even though she couldn’t move it, she could still feel the pain, and she frowned slightly.

Xu Tianyi looked at Luo Qianqian’s immobilized left hand, full of distress, and then spoke: ”I’m sorry, I didn’t protect you well, I said I would protect you, but...”

”It was my carelessness, don’t worry.” Shaking her head lightly, Luo Qianqian’s face was filled with calmness, she sighed, looking at Tang Tianyi: ”Your hand was also because of me, I know that.”

If it wasn’t for Young Master Wang suddenly firing a gun, how would Tang Tianyi suddenly...

Tang Tianyi was still secretly blaming himself, but nonetheless, he got off the ground, carried Luo Qianqian back to her bed, tucked her in, and then returned to his bed, watching Luo Qianqian bathed in the moonlight by the window slowly close her eyes, and only after hearing her even breathing did he squint his eyes, full of self-reproach.

”Harmed her? Then you have no reason to exist!” Saying so, calmly getting off the bed, and pulling the ward door open, turning to leave.

And Luo Qianqian was perhaps too tired, had no reaction at all, sleeping soundly.

Early the next morning, as soon as Luo Qianqian opened her eyes, she saw Tang Tianyi already up, dressed in clean clothes, and there was even an insulated pot on the bedside table.

Hearing the sound, Tang Tianyi turned his head, then smiled: ”You’re awake? Let’s eat breakfast first.”

So when Qin Nuan and Luo Yanran walked in carrying breakfast, they saw this scene.

The girl was leaning against the pillow, with a lazy look on her face, her flipped hair tucked behind her ear, while the boy, fully focused, was holding a bowl of porridge, carefully feeding her.

”Awake?” Luo Yanran was surprised, but seeing that both were patients, she didn’t explode, just put down the thermal jar in her hand: ”Grandma made Baozi, brought two along, there’s also congee...” But looking at the fragrant century egg and lean meat congee in Xu Tianyi’s hand, Luo Yanran doubted whether the porridge she brought would go to waste.

After eating, with Qin Nuan’s help, Luo Qianqian went to wash up, as it was still inconvenient with one hand.

Luo Yanran sat on Luo Qianqian’s bed, her eyes directly staring at the boy opposite: ”What happened yesterday?”

”I’ll handle it.” Tang Tianyi just shook his head lightly, saying: ”I must personally settle Qianqian’s vendetta!”

His voice carrying a tone of determination.

”They’ve already fired a gun...” Luo Yanran still frowned, with a face full of disapproval: ”Qianqian wouldn’t want you to do this...”

”Hurt her, if I remain indifferent, am I still a man?” Tang Tianyi snorted coldly: ”Hurt her an inch, I’ll repay a foot! Hurt her a foot, I’ll repay a yard!”
