Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 934: Chapter 914: All In

After being shocked by Xi Ming, Luo Qianqian still chose to meet the owner of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, but was surprised again, why did she always encounter familiar people?

”Elder Tang?” Luo Qianqian looked at the elderly man in front of her in surprise; she had met him once at Mo Studio but had never gotten to know him deeply.

Later, she also gave away a piece of Chengxin Tang paper...

The old man who was called looked up, hesitating with a frown, ”You are...”

”I am Grandpa Jimo’s student, I am Luo Qianqian,” Luo Qianqian said softly, ”Is this Treasure Gathering Pavilion your business?”

”Oh right, it’s you, lass,” Elder Tang chuckled, ”This place will soon not be mine anymore. You, little girl, should stay away too, lest you get involved.”

Other people might not know about the Jimo Family canceling the engagement, but how could the people in high society not know? After all, this matter was briefly the talk of the town.

Even so many weddings and divorces this year could not overshadow this event.

However, as insiders, they knew far more than what was reported.

For example, after this matter, Jimo Kong and Jimo Cheng had already left the Jimo Family, even severing ties with them, enjoying none of the Jimo Family’s benefits and not relying on their power to act arrogantly.

They ventured abroad to start again, just like many years ago.

They understood that whatever the Jimo Family wanted to cover up, it was unclear, but they also knew it wouldn’t be as simple as it appeared.

Not to mention that initially, it was Jimo Kong who confirmed the marriage between the Jimo Family and the Luo Family, even during Old Master Luo’s birthday banquet. Even after the cancellation, the Luo Family had no opposing words, and Luo Qianqian was unaffected as usual.

However, it was clear that after that news announcement, the Jimo Family became much more low-key, and there hadn’t been any major actions for a long time.

”Actually, I’m here to invite Old Master Tang,” Luo Qianqian chuckled, ”You’re telling me to stay away, so how can I invite you?”

”Invite me?” Old Master Tang was taken aback.

Luo Qianqian nodded slightly, her face unspeakably serious, pointing to the large building of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, where there were apparently no staff members inside, ”Why don’t we go inside and talk?”

”Alright.” Old Master Tang frowned slightly but also knew that this wasn’t a place for conversation, so he nodded lightly and led the two inside the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.

”Old Master Tang, actually I, um, I am not from the Luo Family, nor Haoran. I plan to open a jade ware shop...”

”Kids shouldn’t mess around.” Who knew, Old Master Tang immediately refused with decisive words, his eyebrows knitted tightly, ”Doing business is not child’s play; even a small mistake can lead to ruin...”

”Precisely because of that, we need an experienced and visionary person to guide us kids, right?” Luo Qianqian looked at it as a matter of course, ”I can’t afford the Treasure Gathering Pavilion. But, who knows, like Old Master Tang who started from scratch before, might make a comeback? What you lose today, you’ll regain in the future. As long as you trust your own vision.” She slowly expressed her thoughts, clearly also relieved.

”Treasure Gathering Pavilion is my painstaking effort...”

”Even though it’s painstaking, you can’t reclaim it with just a few pennies.” Luo Qianqian looked calm, ”Even if we could buy the building, we couldn’t buy what’s inside; the financial shortage is what’s causing you such distress, isn’t it?”

Elder Tang was slightly silent, what Luo Qianqian said was true.

If there was enough funding, why would he be so worried now?

After a moment of silence: ”Let me think about it, I’ll give you an answer in a few days.”

Luo Qianqian nodded, looked around at the interior decor of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, and sighed lightly.

She truly couldn’t afford it; even just this first floor was beyond the funds they had.

Making money was a must.

Two days quickly passed, and Tang Tianyi and Luo Qianqian boarded a plane to Yucheng City.

On the plane, Luo Qianqian sat by the window, looking at the blue sky and white clouds outside, and sighed slightly, ”If someone else also shared our idea, would that mean we would have competitors?”

Tang Tianyi was stunned for a long time before he gently shook his head, ”What you see, others can’t see.”

Luo Qianqian was stunned, her expression changed slightly, then she raised her eyebrows and looked at Tang Tianyi, pretending to ask casually, ”And what about you?”

”I can’t see it,” Tang Tianyi shook his head.

His expression was somewhat strange, ”Then, what about your piece...”

”That was given to you by someone else,” Tang Tianyi still shook his head, not revealing anything about this matter.

Even after getting off the plane, Luo Qianqian was still in shock.

It turned out, what she thought others could see, only she could?

But there was an inexplicable feeling that Tang Tianyi hadn’t told the truth?

After finding a nearby hotel and checking in, they explored the surroundings a bit, then casually walked to a roadside stall and ordered a bowl of snacks.

Luo Qianqian merely wanted to eat casually, but she noticed something was wrong; there was actually a layer floating on this bowl?

She looked to the side in confusion but found there was nothing on any of the others, including Tang Tianyi’s bowl.

”Boss, can I take this to go? With the bowl. And give me a pair of chopsticks, too. How much?” Luo Qianqian hesitated for a moment and then decided not to continue eating, her eyes fixed intently on the stall owner.

The owner glanced and nodded, ”The bowl is ten yuan each, no charge for the chopsticks.”

Luo Qianqian nodded, took the bowl and chopsticks, let Tang Tianyi pay, and then, with Tang Tianyi, carried their food back to the hotel.

”Why did you bring it back?” Tang Tianyi, looking at the surroundings of the small hotel, didn’t like it, because Luo Qianqian insisted on keeping a low profile, so they really chose just a small hotel, although it did have a star level...

”That...” Luo Qianqian frowned, not knowing how to explain, ”I feel this bowl has spiritual energy.” Her voice lacked confidence, but her face was full of seriousness.

Tang Tianyi was stunned, looking at Luo Qianqian’s bowl, which clearly didn’t look much different from the one he had.

Both were large white bowls with blue flower patterns, a common sight on the market.

”I don’t know why, it just feels... different.” Luo Qianqian frowned, looking at the large bowl; it seemed perfectly ordinary, but that faintly floating green spiritual energy forced her to pay attention.

”Let’s take it back and have a look,” Tang Tianyi knew Luo Qianqi wouldn’t easily joke around.

Especially at times like these, joking was even more unlikely.

”Put it in the suitcase.” Luo Qianqian nodded, poured the food from the bowl into Tang Tianyi’s bowl, then went into the bathroom, washed it clean, dried it, and placed it in the suitcase.

In her suitcase, there were only two pieces of clothing and a notebook to log the expenses of this trip.

In the next room, Tang Tianyi’s was similar, only his suitcase was larger and without a notebook.
