Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 1035: Chapter 1015: Security?

”What? A security company?” The brothers Tu Aige and Tu Daoge looked utterly incredulous.

How does this kid come up with such random ideas?

Is forming a company something you do just like that?

Far away in the Capital City, several people nodded quietly. It really was something set up on a whim.

”Exactly, think about it, apart from those things we should condemn, isn’t what gangs do just security and bodyguard work? Watching over places is the most basic security job, right?” Luo Qianqian looked as if it was the most natural thing in the world.

Tu Aige was still hesitating, but Tu Daoge nodded: ”Well, that’s not wrong.”

”And we have contacts, we can reach out to Uncle, our brothers’ comrades, those soldiers who are injured but still full of zeal...” Luo Qianqian flashed a confident smile, unsure if there were any hidden injuries she couldn’t manage.

These past nights, she experimented with things like the Burst Strength Pill, which could increase strength by about 30%, and that’s due to the age of the herbs. If they were older, a 50% increase would be minimal, and by her estimation, it could reach 100%, exhibiting 200% power.

Take for example the Rapid Healing Pill, which speeds up the healing of wounds, similar to what Jimo Cheng applied on her before, the only difference being one is taken orally, the other is for external use.

While Luo Qianqian was still lost in thought, the phone rang. It was a number designated for contact with outsiders.

Seeing the unfamiliar number, Luo Qianqian frowned slightly, picked up the phone, and said, ”Hello, who is this?”

”I need to see you, immediately, right now!!!” A loud voice boomed through the receiver, leaving Luo Qianqian a bit dumbfounded. Who was this? And what happened?

But the voice sounded somewhat familiar, so Luo Qianqian quietly gave the address of a nearby coffee shop before hanging up.

”Shouldn’t the place next door give me a kind of Gold Card?” Luo Qianqian mumbled as she looked at Tu Aige, realizing she always ended up in a coffee shop whenever there was something going on and couldn’t just meet at the Nine Heavens Pavilion.

Tu Aige scratched his head quietly, ”Actually, I have one...”

He too needed to drink something once in a while, especially recently as he’d been hooked on late-night novels and always felt sleepless.

A morning cup of coffee was quite necessary the next day.

Facing Luo Qianqian’s murderous gaze, Tu Aige quickly pulled out his membership card, ”There’s about eight or nine hundred bucks on this...”

Luo Qianqian snorted and without a glance, turned and left.

Tu Aige scratched his head suspiciously and looked at his brother, ”What does ’hmph’ mean?”

”It’s just ’hmph’,” Tu Daoge gloated.

”Thanks for stating the obvious,” he replied, rolling his eyes exasperatedly.

Staring at the membership card, still confused.

Luo Qianqian sat in the coffee shop and ordered a glass of milk, as this weather wasn’t suitable for cold drinks.

The next second, the door of the coffee shop was burst open, and a man came rushing in, looking around before spotting Luo Qianqian. He quickly ran over and collapsed in front of her on his knees, ”Miss Luo...”

”What are you doing? Get up, is there something you need?” Luo Qianqian was so startled by Li Liu’s actions that she jumped up, completely caught off guard. But she quickly bent down to help him up and led him to a seat.

”Miss Luo, thank you for giving me a new lease on life!”

Li Lie’s face was an unguarded frenzy that left Luo Qianqian somewhat dumbfounded, tilting her head in confusion.

”My brother, he’s better, he’s standing up!” Li Liu said, tears streaming, his face unmistakably joyful.

Huh? Brother? Which brother? Is he a person or...?

Luo Qianqian looked puzzled.

”About that pill of yours, can I have another one? I’ll pay if I must!” Li Liu pleaded sincerely.

Luo Qianqian immediately understood, he was talking about the thank-you gift from that other day.

Wait, wasn’t that a Healing Medicine meant for internal injuries...?

”Can you first tell me what happened to your brother?” Luo Qianqian unconsciously turned quite serious.

”He got beaten, paralyzed. I randomly let him have my stuff, being brothers, there was no need to hide anything. I just didn’t expect he’d consume what’s inside that Jade Vase. Later, for some reason, he needed the bathroom, I told him to wait while I was on the phone, but by the time I finished, he just went by himself!”

Paralyzed? Was this... just a coincidence?

Luo Qianqian twitched her lips.

”Then I took him to the hospital for a check-up, just got the result.” Li Liu carefully placed the report into Luo Qianqian’s hand, speaking each word clearly: ”All the hidden injuries from his years in the army are gone.”

Luo Qianqian raised an eyebrow, was this a perfectly-timed help she didn’t ask for?

Earlier she was considering using the lowest level Cleansing Marrow pills to win people over if nothing else worked, but now that’s unnecessary.

Compared to the Cleansing Marrow medicine, the Healing Medicines used more common ingredients and were easier to make.

”So, what do you want?” Luo Qianqian raised an eyebrow.

”I want one.” Li Liu handed over a card: ”This is my savings over the years, meant to ensure my brother’s future in case something happened.”

Luo Qianqian pushed the card back, ”I don’t have any at the moment, but I’ll give you some later.”

She then winked, amused, ”I assume Skinny Bro isn’t in dire need for the time being?”

”No, not at all, whatever you say goes. From now on, if you need anything, just find me. I won’t hesitate to risk everything!” Li Liu’s eyes burned with fervor.

As long as there’s a way, he’s ready to give whatever it takes.

After sending Li Liu off, Luo Qianqian stretched lazily, feeling quite relieved to have resolved one matter.

Winning people’s hearts, coupled with Uncle’s and the brothers’ recommendations, ensures that the character of the recommended individuals can be trusted.

However, such things can’t be handed out randomly. This should be dispensed at the right moment to reassure everyone.

As a rationale for recruitment, this was indeed a fine strategy.

As she pondered, a man even skinnier than Li Liu, yet with a slight resemblance, sat across from her.

”Who are you?” Luo Qianqian asked suspiciously.

”Was it you who saved me?” The man’s face was full of disbelief as he looked at Luo Qianqian.

Luo Qianqian rolled her eyes, ”You’re barking up the wrong tree.”

It was clear who he was, Li Liu’s brother, as mentioned earlier.

As for how he found her, she wasn’t particularly interested.

”You saved my life, so it’s yours. From now on, I’ll follow you.” The man’s face was determined, revealing a burning intensity without any concealment.

His eyes clearly said: This is a big catch, it’s essential to keep an eye on it.

With a head full of frustration, Luo Qianqian got up, knowing Li Liu had already settled the bill, and went straight out the door.

Unexpectedly, the man followed her.

She couldn’t just bring him home, so she quietly walked to the entrance of the Nine Heavens Pavilion, sending out a distress signal to Tu Daoge, who was smoking outside.

Smoking was prohibited inside the Nine Heavens Pavilion, so those wanting to smoke had to step outside, and this rule applied to both staff and guests.

”Dog Brother? Why are you here?” Unexpectedly, in the next instant, the man lunged at Tu Daoge...
