Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 1086: Chapter 1066: Visiting Again

The next day, Luo Qianqian wasn’t surprised at all to see people from the Jimo Family at her door.

What is the function of a Green Spirit? Healing, nourishment, Essence of Life.

For them to come and ask for a Green Spirit already indicates a critical issue; it implies that an influential person is in danger.

When Jimo Shun saw Luo Qianqian about to go out, she shut the door the moment she saw him. His face instantly turned awkward, filled with embarrassment and helplessness.

What could he do? He was under orders to ask for help...

”Weren’t you going out?” He Wenyu looked at her with curiosity as she stepped back in before he could catch up, her expression one of frustration.

Luo Qianqian pouted and pointed outside: ”I didn’t check the almanac before going out; it’s not a good day to leave the house today.”

”What’s wrong?” He Wenyu asked curiously as he opened the door, only to find the same old man from yesterday at the doorstep, and silently closed the door again.

Old Master Luo had an understanding look on his face: ”You’ll get used to it. This is the fourth day he’s come, and it’s the first time he hasn’t been invited in.”

When Luo Qianqian wasn’t around, he might still worry about his granddaughter, fearing she might get harmed by these people. But now that his granddaughter was right in front of him, what was there to worry about? As long as she was happy.

As for the Jimo Family, he was only familiar with that one person.

What do the affairs of the Jimo Family have to do with him?

”Grandpa, you really have patience.” Luo Qianqian twitched her lips and decisively made a phone call.

Previously, because there was some trouble on Luo Yanran’s side, the Luo Family’s Heavenly Shield bodyguards were dispatched there, but now it was just a matter of having Luo Yanran bring them back to stand at the door—how noticeable.

When Luo Yanran received the call, he was completely dumbfounded.

Why didn’t he, as her brother, know that his younger sister had returned?

Qin Nuan was just as baffled, wondering when Luo Qianqian came back?

When the two of them hurriedly returned with their entourage to the Luo Family, they frowned as they saw the car at the door.

Qin Nuan, however, seemed to understand as she thought that if there was no problem, Luo Qianqian wouldn’t have mentioned it.

This really misunderstood Luo Qianqian; she originally planned to take He Wenyu to find them...

”Do we have guests?” Luo Yanran frowned, as if there was a guest, no one at home should have missed it.

Moreover, with Luo Qianqian back, how could she not sense it?

The only possibility was that she didn’t welcome this person.

Seeing that someone had returned, Jimo Shun hurriedly got out of the car, inwardly cursing Luo Qianqian’s lack of empathy, imagining killing her hundreds of ways in his mind. Yet, this moment he still looked cheerfully at Luo Yanran.

Luo Yanran asked nothing, displayed no cordiality, and instead, walked straight into the courtyard with Qin Nuan, which took Jimo Shun by surprise.

This was just too impolite, wasn’t it?

He reached out intending to call Luo Yanran, but Luo Yanran’s actions directly stopped him.

”Watch the door, don’t let anyone in.” After instructing the two bodyguards, he then led Qin Nuan into the house.

This act successfully got Jimo Shun to shut his mouth.

Inside the house, looking at Luo Qianqian leisurely eating a snack, Qin Nuan pounced with mock rebuke: ”Little heartless one, you came back and didn’t tell me?”

”Wasn’t I about to go looking for you? But then I got blocked at the door.” Luo Qianqian shrugged, full of helplessness.

She pulled Qin Nuan down to sit properly, handed her a piece of soft cookie: ”Try it, Xiao Yu made it with Grandma.”

”Where is Xiao Yu?” Not seeing He Wenyu around, Qin Nuan looked around curiously.

Since Luo Qianqian said it was made by He Wenyu and Grandma, He Wenyu should definitely be here.

But no matter how she looked, she couldn’t find him.

”Qhianqhian, what pie would you like to eat? Xiao Yu and your grandma are in the kitchen.” Old Master Luo took a sugar-free cookie specially made by He Wenyu, and took a bite.

Though it lacked flavor, he wasn’t fond of such things, but it was the young girl’s thoughtfulness.

Luo Yanran rolled his eyes, sitting down on a single sofa. He wouldn’t compete for a spot beside Luo Qianqian, after all, on one side was Old Master Luo and on the other was his girlfriend Qin Nuan, neither of whom was to be trifled with: ”Little Ancestor, why didn’t you call when you came back? I could’ve picked you up.”

”I just took a taxi back; why make it such a hassle?” Luo Qianqian said calmly: ”Besides, in this hot weather, seeing you makes me restless.”

If her identity were to be recognized, the people around... it would be like flies swarming to honey.

In this hot weather, it was cooler to walk by herself.

Qin Nuan chuckled and nodded: ”I quite agree with that.”

Though Luo Yanran had been out of the public eye for a long time, his works were numerous and many songs were on the gold charts, making it impossible for people to easily forget him.

Yhan Miyuan is the only person whose popularity hasn’t decreased despite being out of the spotlight for years, naturally because of his high appearance.

The public’s attention on Yhan Miyuan’s relationships has never diminished.

If asked who women most want to marry now, Yhan Miyuan would be the first choice.

”What is that guy outside doing? A salesman?” Luo Yanran looked at the others in disbelief, grabbing a cookie with a rich-kid playboy nonchalance.

”Salesman? Can a salesman even get into this neighborhood?” Luo Qianqian rolled her eyes in exasperation.

Sometimes, Fourth Brother’s thinking is just different from others...

Qin Nuan also furrowed her brows: ”That car, I think I’ve seen it before.”

”Yeah, it belongs to the Jimo Family; they want a Green Spirit.” Luo Qianqian shrugged, hiding nothing.

Nine Heavens Pavilion is the joint property of the four of them.

”How do they know about the Green Spirit?” Qin Nuan’s eyes widened, grabbing Luo Qianqian’s arm: ”Is there a spy?”

Wait, wait, this isn’t a game, and how should I know how they found out!!!

Luo Qianqian internally screamed, but helplessly patted Qin Nuan’s hand away: ”Stuff like Green Spirit almost doesn’t exist anymore, but hasn’t it appeared in over five thousand years of culture? Who knows? What if it’s documented somewhere?”

Luo Yanran shook his head: ”I looked through a lot of materials for promotion before, and there wasn’t such a record, but there is something similar in books. But it was only briefly mentioned.”

”What?”

”Spirit Jade from the First Emperor era.”

Hearing the answer, Luo Qianqian stood frozen, Spirit Jade?

”And it’s rumored that Spirit Jade is one of the essential ingredients for making the Elixir of Immortality.”

Overwhelmed by the information, Luo Qianqian was at a loss. Jade, no offense, is just a somewhat spiritual stone, is it really used in medicine? Are they serious?
