Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 1289: Chapter 1269: Is the Flower Sect... a Matchmaking Agency?

”Then you’d better not speak.” Yan raised an eyebrow, directly placing the plate in front of Huangfu Yihui, but still, no one touched the things inside: ”This Brother Chen, I’ve already refused the goodwill of your two companions earlier, do you think your charm is stronger than ours?” He stared into Chen Yao’s eyes.

Chen Yao looked at Yan, hesitant to speak, and it seemed compared to looks or people, these two were more than a match for him. He gulped down two mouthfuls of tea but hadn’t spoken before the twins behind him couldn’t hold back any longer.

”How can you talk like that? It’s one thing to ruin our good time before, and to refuse our affection, but now you’re speaking like this to our young master?!”

”Pfft...” Luo Qianqian had just sipped some tea and spat it out directly, looking at Yan incredulously: ”Affection?” Her eyes were full of ridicule, feeling that such things were a bit embarrassing.

”Shut up!” Chen Yao’s fierce gaze swept over, silencing the twins once again.

Doesn’t this feel like two birds? Normally it’s called courtship, isn’t this word used for the flamboyant competition among male birds?

Yan turned sideways, with mischievous eyes, pulled out a handkerchief and wiped Luo Qianqian’s mouth: ”What? Jealous?”

Jealous, my foot!

Luo Qianqian was slightly stunned but fell into silence again; it seemed she was being used as a shield by Yan?

He was thoughtful; before he spoke, she only thought of simply rejecting it without making excuses, thinking there was no need to take suitors too seriously, right? No matter how long it has been, if you don’t like someone, you just don’t.

He gave her inspiration. She put down the handkerchief, picked up the teacup, and smiled at Huangfu Yihui: ”Won’t you discipline him? Careful he gets upset at night and refuses to share a room with you.”

Do they sleep in rooms?

Seems they use the sky as a blanket and the earth as a pillow?

After thinking for a moment, Huangfu Yihui understood Luo Qianqian’s point, but how could he let her pair them together?

”Even though we agreed that we wouldn’t do anything before you grow up, if I get kicked out, wouldn’t your heart ache?” Huangfu Yihui picked up a piece of dessert with a handkerchief and offered it to Luo Qianqian.

Luo Qianqian stared, but she opened her mouth amid the malicious glances exchanged between the two.

Yan turned his head away, couldn’t bear to look at Luo Qianqian’s uncomfortable expression, yet his shoulders shook, and suppressed laughter could be heard.

When had she ever eaten such a tasteless dessert? It’s clearly just flour, no flavor at all; every bite was like a mouthful of dough.

”Is it tasty?” Huangfu Yihui raised his head, looking expectantly at Luo Qianqian, whose expression clearly showed it tasted terrible.

Luo Qianqian poured herself another cup of tea and drank it, then smiled at Huangfu Yihui: ”Whatever you feed me is tasty.” She said, picking up another piece with a gentle smile: ”Ah.”

Karma!

Watching Huangfu Yihui’s painful expression, Luo Qianqian laughed wildly in her heart.

”I am willing to give you everything they cannot provide.” Chen Yao anxiously looked at Luo Qianqian, like a cooked duck flapping its wings, making him want to find a rope and tie her up right away.

”What can you give me that they can’t?” Luo Qianqian looked at Chen Yao’s anxious appearance, with a complicated look in her eyes. Moreover, even if these two couldn’t provide it, could she really not get it herself? She had an entire modern society to back her up.

”Money...”

Luo Qianqian showed Haan Yun’s wealth.

Chen Yao’s face changed.

”Fame...”

”Pfft.” Huangfu Yihui couldn’t hold back and burst into laughter; Luo Shiqi’s name is known even to those far in Southern Li, can the small Northern Region Flower Sect really compare?

Though no one spoke, Chen Yao understood what they meant.

”The Flower Sect’s Dual Cultivation Technique can help us progress together, complementing each other with yin and yang, and share longevity with time.”

After a long time, Chen Yao finally made up his mind, hurriedly raised his head, determination on his face, and nodded heavily.

Luo Qianqian finished the tea in her cup, casually said: ”Not interested.”

Chen Yao was taken aback, hesitantly looking at her: ”What did you say?”

Luo Qianqian looked at him briefly, suddenly repeating word for word: ”I said, not, interested!” The smile deepening on her face.

Chen Yao, as if he’d been stepped on his tail, jumped up abruptly, flipping his chair with such force it crashed to the ground with a thud, his face filled with disbelief, and his expression shifted from his previous gentle look, kicking the chair aside in anger.

”You better not refuse a toast only to be forced to drink.” Chen Yao slapped his long sword on the table.

Luo Qianqian covered her mouth and yawned: ”Toast, I don’t drink; being forced, I don’t drink either. Besides, do you even have wine to offer? To drink, ask him; we’re all still young and not fond of such things.”

Yan pinched the teacup between his fingers and spun it around, looking at Chen Yao’s furious appearance with a slight smile: ”Wine? I like it; whether it’s offered or forced, I’ll take it, bring it.”

Chen Yao squinted his eyes at Luo Qianqian: ”Next time we meet, it’ll be the day I, Chen Yao, marry you! You must wed, whether agreeable or not!” With that said, he threw a Jade Pendant onto the table: ”Someone will come find you!” He then turned around and left with the twins.

The twins glanced at Yan a few more times before leaving lightly, each leaving a pair of Jade Pendants on the table, though evidently less valuable than Chen Yao’s.

Luo Qianqian’s smile, along with Yan’s words, and even the three performances full of poor acting, all made Chen Yao feel uneasy, but his yearning for the future made him disregard all of that.

Just stepping out, he halted as three shattered Jade Pendants lay at his feet.

Luo Qianqian, Yan, and Huangfu Yihui leisurely walked out of the teahouse, looking at the angry expressions of the three, Luo Qianqian curved her lips: ”I never really knew that the Flower Sect also engaged in matchmaking business, forcing marriages? How is that different from robbery? Does the Flower Sect... Is their real identity a matchmaking agency? Solving the emotional issues of single adults? Then let’s leave it be; we’re still young; the road is filled with men and women who’d be eager to marry you three.”

Even if you don’t understand what a matchmaking agency means, hearing this long line is not hard to grasp.

”Let’s go, let’s not let these single adults ruin our mood.” Luo Qianqian directly headed out.

Chen Yao squinted at her, directly pulling out the Jade Gourd from his waist, inside was the Sect Master’s secret medicine; if the opponent didn’t comply, drinking it would ensure obedience.

”If your hands and mind aren’t where they should be, I can’t guarantee you’ll remain unharmed there!” Luo Qianqian paused, speaking coldly.

Then the three walked into the crowd, disappearing from Chen Yao’s view.

Chen Yao tightly clenched his fists, shouting to the two behind him: ”Investigate!”

Don’t comply? He doesn’t believe it, he’s determined to press this woman beneath him and teach her the consequences of resisting!
