Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 1182: Chapter 1162: Investigation Team, ”Medical Leave

Qhianqhian watched Tang Guo leave with her belongings and was speechless. How valuable were those things? She even took all the remaining soil and flowerpots without leaving anything behind?

Watching the items much larger than Tang Guo’s frame, she could only shrug.

That evening, however, Tang Tianyi appeared in front of Qhianqhian with a solemn face.

Seeing such a serious expression, Qhianqhian was taken aback. Not to mention her, even Luo Xinyue on the side frowned slightly.

”What’s wrong?” Qhianqhian asked, puzzled, pulling Tang Tianyi to sit down.

”Someone is investigating us. Today, among the interviewees at Haoran’s place, there was a government person.”

Tang Tianyi took a deep breath: ”Looks like it should be the Special Action Group or something like that.”

Luo Xinyue slightly furrowed his brow, having been investigated before, he naturally knew what was going on. After pondering for a moment, he directly pulled out a computer from a backpack that hadn’t been opened.

His fingers flew rapidly on the laptop’s keyboard, reaching a realm of forgetting himself. Even Qhianqhian and Tang Tianyi sitting beside him were unconsciously mesmerized watching him.

A moment later, he stopped, tightly furrowing his brow: ”The investigation is not on Haoran, but on the Luo Family.”

”Ah?” Qhianqhian was stunned. The Luo Family in the public eye only had Luo Xihan remaining. She was just a child and didn’t have many people noticing her, not to mention her identity was encrypted, preventing casual reporting.

”Second Uncle can’t leave casually?” Qhianqhian furrowed her brow.

Luo Xinyue clasped his hands together, resting them under his chin, clearly in a thoughtful posture.

”Your Second Uncle can’t just ’die,’ then go on sick leave,” Luo Xinyue said naturally: ”Get a certification from the hospital then stay at home indefinitely.”

As for whether he is at home, can the Investigation Team enter the house and check? Of course not.

After all, that’d be violating citizen privacy.

Luo Xihan hasn’t done anything wrong.

After all, their plans still have future parts. It’s not the time to just ’die,’ or you’d have to fake resurrection later.

”Anyway, with the way he looks now, it’s not much different from being sick.” Qhianqhian shrugged.

The two of them did nothing much besides crying in front of everyone that day; after all, everyone in the Luo Family is fine, so there’s no need to be genuinely sad, just pretend.

”But I feel, sooner or later, they might investigate this side too.” Tang Tianyi frowned, glanced at Qhianqhian, worry evident on his face: ”Won’t anyone suspect the connection with Qhianqhian?”

”Even if they suspect, what then? Are they going to dissect me?” Qhianqhian shrugged indifferently, with her abilities, she didn’t care much about these things.

If push comes to shove, she could even escape back, could they chase her? They couldn’t trap her; at most, they’d have a conversation.

Isn’t she in control of that conversation?

A decision made, she and Tang Tianyi directly took Second Uncle to the hospital.

After a series of examinations, they diagnosed him with neurasthenia...

Qhianqhian looked at her Second Uncle with a black line across her face. What has he done...

But still, with a mournful expression, she took care of her Second Uncle in the hospital, looking like she was on the verge of tears.

Tang Tianyi beside her, softly comforting her, also showing full sadness.

The next day, they handled the discharge paperwork according to medical advice, returning home to rest. As for Haoran’s matters? Bai Yizhu and Lin Jiayou would handle everything.

After three days of hiring, things mostly stabilized. Elvis quietly appeared at Haoran, becoming part of the management.

Beside him stood Xi Ming, who expressed great satisfaction entering such a company for his internship.

Qhianqhian barely dared to show herself, silently bidding her father farewell, staying with Second Uncle in the Shangqi Club, and Tang Tianyi, Bai Yizhu, and Lin Jiayou disappeared.

Luo Xinyue looked at the room that turned empty in an instant, reaching out lonely with a hand, then chuckled quietly.

”Departures are for better reunions, Qhianqhian, Dad trusts you.”

The first reaction Luo Xihan had upon arrival was to tightly hold onto the snacks in her arms. She firmly believed that her son and wife must miss these items, so much so that she asked the kitchen to make a large portion of shaved ice to take away, believing there was no refrigerator here, making eating cold things challenging.

However, walking alongside Qhianqhian out of this lush land, what greeted them was unexpectedly a snowy landscape with smoke curling up from chimneys.

”Qhianqhian?” Luo Shufan happened to be holding An Hao, taking a stroll when An Hao suddenly began to struggle violently toward this direction. Therefore, he obliged his little brother, walking over and saw Qhianqhian coming out, looking stunned before showing a face full of surprise.

”Brother!” Qhianqhian dropped the snacks she had in hand and prepared to leap into Luo Shufan’s embrace.

She was caught around the waist by Tang Tianyi, showing a frightened expression: ”You want to crush your brother and An Hao?”

Qhianqhian hastily stopped in her tracks; since adapting to the current status, she hadn’t felt anything, but for Luo Shufan, it was an unignorably heavy force.

Luo Shufan watched Qhianqhian rushing over, turning pale, unsure whether to drop his brother to catch his sister or dodge his sister while holding his brother.

However, he wasn’t seen to be particularly pleased with Tang Tianyi’s intervention.

Compared to little An Hao, he much preferred the grown-up Qhianqhian whom he had been looking after.

”Where’s Mom?” Qhianqhian wondered, looking around.

”She’s in the village at the foot of the mountain, Grandma and Grandpa didn’t dare show themselves.” Luo Shufan shook his head helplessly; the two elders, usually commanding the winds in their presence, didn’t dare face An Zilan. This rendered them quite helpless yet powerless.

After all, they were convinced it was their fault that An Zilan endured hardships bringing up two children alone for so many years.

Now that An Zilan has found happiness, there’s no reason to disturb the peace obtained.

This stubborn former relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has been stuck on the mountaintop and at the foot.

”Why are you holding An Hao?” Qhianqhian was even more confused.

Luo Shufan looked at the cute and small An Hao in his arms, teasingly toward Qhianqhian, feeling helpless: ”He’s troublesome!”

Only when playing with Xiao Tian can he be quiet for a moment, yet recently Xiao Tian has been chased away by him, fleeing as soon as he heard any kids’ voices, leaving nothing behind his flight.

If not allowed to play, he cries, impossible to pacify, crying until his voice grew hoarse.

Because of this, he and mom were curious about who An Hao resembled?

After reminiscing about how the siblings were when young, they unanimously agreed, this was the Lin Family genes.

Lin Xu felt wronged; after all, Lin Jiayou was obedient as a child, neither crying nor fussing.

But due to lack of witnesses, it was believed An Hao’s trouble-making was his gene.

Luckily, Luo Shufan assisted in taking care of An Hao, and the village at the mountain’s foot was neatly organized. Everything proceeded orderly, from farming to other activities.

Qhianqhian had prepared transitional food early, and the An Family thrived in the countryside, skillfully handling the stove without encountering difficulties. Yet, An Zilan still needed the comfort of a mattress, which, due to limited stock, Feng Xi generously provided a spare.
