Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 979: Chapter 959: From 1 to 5...

Qhianqhian and Tang Tianyi were successfully escorted out of the port by Diwu Yan. The two did not choose to fly directly, but opted to go to other cities first, and they made a round at the embassy before boarding the plane with a couple.

At this moment, Qhianqhian had to admit the usefulness of such a certificate. After returning to the country, the two did not choose to go home; instead, they found Luo Yanwu.

”Why are you in such a hurry to find me? Weren’t you out on business? You’re back?” When Luo Yanwu arrived at the place arranged by Qhianqhian, sweat was still on his face. Even though it wasn’t the hottest time yet, he wore short sleeves as someone who trained every day, especially since it was nighttime.

At midnight, what places are still open? Thus, the three sat down at a street vendor’s BBQ stand...

”No, don’t tell the family,” Qhianqhian said quickly, looking tense. Their flight this time wasn’t direct, and they had changed planes in Shanghai, causing this lengthy ordeal.

Luo Yanwu rushed out after training, which was coincidental, as he was just punished tonight and was a bit late. Just after he returned to the dormitory, he received Qhianqhian’s message, hurriedly took a shower, changed clothes, and had someone send him over.

”Uh... couldn’t you have told me earlier...” Luo Yanwu had an expression of slight, almost imperceptible embarrassment.

Qhianqhian’s face twitched, ”You’ve already mentioned it?”

”No, it’s my eldest and second brother who sent me over...” Luo Yanwu quickly waved his hand, though his expression was still a bit odd, ”Do you have any issue? If not, we should run first—they’ve gone to park the car.”

Qhianqhian felt speechless, looking at the two people walking over: ”Do you believe they’ll hear it, and you’ll be punished after you go back?”

Originally thinking the third brother was tight-lipped, who would have thought he’d bring two tagalongs?

”It’s not my fault. It’s so late; I’m embarrassed to have others come to send me,” Luo Yanwu said with a matter-of-fact expression, spreading his hands, ”Forget it, since they’re already here, we’ll just warn the second brother later.”

”Warn me about what?” Luo Yanhao just put his phone down.

Qhianqhian immediately sensed trouble: ”You called someone? Who did you call?”

”What’s wrong?” Luo Yanhai also noticed Qhianqhian’s odd look, frowning tightly.

”I called your fourth brother; coincidentally, he’s also awake, and your fourth sister-in-law is there too,” Luo Yanhao said, looking calm.

Suddenly, Qhianqhian could only see the sky falling apart; she really had a feud with the brothers Luo Yanhao and Luo Yanran, didn’t she?

Every time something happened, it was these two spreading the word!

Tang Tianyi also felt slightly stiff, but soon returned to normal.

They understood the principle of dealing with situations as they arose.

Luo Yanwu looked apologetic and raised his hand, solemnly promising Qhianqhian, ”Next time I definitely won’t tell Second Brother.”

Seeing Luo Yanwu’s statement, Luo Yanhao suddenly froze, then frowned heavily, ”Is it something Luo Yanran can’t know?”

Shrugging his shoulders, ”How could that be? Among us four, you two have the best bond.”

Though it’s true, there are things I’d rather he not know.

If he knows, the whole family knows.

”Forget it, they already know; keeping it secret is useless,” Qhianqhian glanced at Tang Tianyi, both showing helpless expressions.

Tang Tianyi waved calmly, ”Add another hundred skewers of lamb.”

Qhianqhian quietly ate the vegetable rolls in front of her.

Unexpectedly, the most anxious was Luo Yanhao, who was ’excluded’ by Qhianqhian: ”Qhianqhian, what’s going on? Why all the mystery? We won’t tell Grandpa and Grandma, just tell us; you’re stressing me out.”

”They haven’t eaten much; let’s eat first,” Luo Yanwu, who had been observing for a while, stopped Luo Yanhao.

The table was already covered with heaps of empty plates, with Qhianqhian’s pile of chicken bones indicating how long the two had been eating.

”Let’s eat first, we’ll discuss it when everyone arrives, then I won’t have to repeat myself,” Qhianqhian said calmly.

Coincidentally, Luo Yanwu was also hungry, so he started eating openly.

On the other side, Luo Yanhao ordered a box of alcohol, didn’t forget to get some appetizers, and began drinking with the eldest brother.

When Qin Nuan and Luo Yanran arrived, seeing this scene, they found it odd.

But Qin Nuan still rushed to Qhianqhian: ”Qhianqhian, you’re finally back.”

”Sit down, eat,” Qhianqhian patted Qin Nuan, appearing used to the situation, ”We’ll talk later.”

This past month, though there was food, better than others, it was still dry food—bread, biscuits, jerky, milk tablets, snacks—nothing matches meat, nothing compares to oily, sizzling meat skewers.

Luo Yanran frowning glanced at the two who had clearly eaten a lot, remained silent, pulled Qin Nuan to sit down, and began ordering calmly.

Once Qhianqhian finally had her fill, the five became serious-looking immediately: ”Let’s head back to the apartment. Boss, the bill,” Luo Yanran went to pay, leaving Qhianqhian a bit embarrassed as she intended to treat them.

Being practically escorted back to the apartment.

”What’s going on?” Luo Yanhao was now sober, showing no signs of recent drinking.

”First, you can’t tell family—no word to Grandpa, Grandma, First Uncle, Second Uncle, First Aunt, Second Aunt—not even to Cong Rong. Don’t even mention that I’m back,” Qhianqhian clarified seriously.

Luo Yanwu’s mouth twitched; clearly, Qhianqhian initially intended not to tell anyone, only sought him out, but through one notification after another, it turned into five.

Luo Yanran’s face darkened, veins stood out on his forehead as his fists clenched, ”You never intended to tell me, did you?”

Facing Luo Yanran’s expression, Qhianqhian showed no fear, nodded: ”Exactly.”

Listening to Qhianqhian’s candid words, Luo Yanhao initially felt apologetic; if he hadn’t made the call, Luo Yanran and Qin Nuan wouldn’t be aware.

But soon his face also darkened, realizing he’d been left out initially. Recalling the scene after they’d parked and came over, he understood.

Yet he said nothing, since they were all here now.

”Can you find mercenaries?” Qhianqhian asked seriously, but all five reacted as if they’d misheard.

Mercenaries??? Are you kidding?

Qin Nuan frowned directly, ”Qhianqhian, what happened?”

Qhianqhian glanced at Qin Nuan, gestured at Tang Tianyi: ”You tell them, I’m going to deal with Nuannuan.”

Upon hearing this, Qin Nuan instinctively crossed her arms, but watching Qhianqhian, she relaxed, actually thrusting her chest forward, as if daring: bring it on...

This silly girlfriend left Luo Yanran rubbing his forehead, shaking his head silently.

He then looked at Tang Tianyi; it’s not the time to ponder the silliness of his girlfriend...

Following Qin Nuan into the bedroom, Qhianqhian slumped onto the bed, showing distress, ”Diwu Yan is still in the island country; now only Tang Tianyi and I have come out unharmed, others were imprisoned.”

”Imprisoned?” Qin Nuan was momentarily stunned, asking puzzled, ”Weren’t you attending international events?”

Qhianqhian recounted the events briefly, including people getting cut into pieces, not skimping on detail, leaving Qin Nuan pale-faced.

”So, they attempted to kill, you retaliated, but there’s no evidence?” Qin Nuan looked at Qhianqhian, eyes fixed on her neck.

Seeing a red stone shining faintly, Qhianqhian responded with a nod.

A lady clad in ancient red attire appeared before them, her regal beauty and charm making Qin Nuan freeze, stunned.
