Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 1411: Chapter 1391: Volunteering for Duty

”What do we do now?” Watching Luo Qianqian leave, the atmosphere in the conference room was chaotic, with everyone talking among themselves. They’ve lived this long, seen all kinds of things, but what’s happening now... they truly haven’t encountered before. Although Luo Qianqian is just a child, her words don’t sound like alarmism; in fact, many of them are tentatively believing her.

After all, there’s no benefit in deceiving them, and she plainly said the army is useless...

This leaves them at a loss. The army is useless? If anyone else said that, they would scoff and use force to resolve any dissent, proving capability.

But this person, the uproar caused by the hidden noble clan, they might not know, but how could the upper echelon be completely unaware?

Such abilities are ones they don’t possess, but that doesn’t mean they don’t want to have them.

Even without possessing it, it doesn’t mean they wouldn’t wish to control such mysterious power.

These people wouldn’t willingly be controlled, detached from worldly ties, uninterested in power, and they don’t even have the reason to command these people.

Especially someone like Luo Qianqian, exceptional in strength, who doesn’t care for the noble class.

From a certain perspective, the existence of someone like this provides them relief; not for their use, yet not used by enemies either.

And at critical moments, they would provide protection.

Luo Qianqian exited the conference room and started to regret as she looked at the gloomy sky.

Why did she leave? If she hadn’t, someone would have given her a ride, right? Now look... she could only walk back herself, couldn’t she?

Her eyes whirled around, spotting a car parked on the road with people inside. She stepped forward and knocked on the car window. As it slowly rolled down, she gently smiled and asked, ”Can you give me a ride back?”

”Hello, yes.” His military uniform complemented his physique. He quickly got out, opened the door, and invited Luo Qianqian to get in.

The line of cars had just received the call that if anyone wanted a ride, give them one; and show utmost respect while doing it.

He didn’t expect this task to fall to him, especially since his car was furthest away.

Luo Qianqian chose this car simply because it was closest to the outside, avoiding any need for other cars to make way.

Arriving at the community gate, Luo Qianqian calmly tossed him a pack of beef jerky. ”I didn’t bring any cash, take this as a token of thanks. Be careful on your way back.” With that, she leisurely entered the community as its door closed tightly, disallowing cars to enter or exit. The guard post was also tightly shut, and she naturally swiped her card to enter.

The duty soldier holding onto the beef jerky wore an odd expression. A fare?

He’d given rides before, but this was the first time someone had actively offered a fare, albeit not money.

If it were money, he probably wouldn’t have dared to accept it either.

Driving away, his face carried a touched expression as he held onto the beef jerky.

Being asked to deliver someone means they wouldn’t be an ordinary person, yet so approachable—truly quite surprising.

”What are you doing here?” Luo Qianqian entered the courtyard, spotting four men solemnly sitting on a swing chair, all with lollipops in their mouths...

”Shiqi, An Hao’s favorite flavor is a bit too sweet. Is there a lighter flavor?” Huangfu Yihui removed the light yellow milk-flavored lollipop from his mouth, perplexed. ”What’s the point of having these sticks? Can’t you just pop it in your mouth?”

Why don’t you eat hard candy instead of lollipops then?

You’re even eating An Hao’s favorite flavor, despite An Hao being allowed only one a day.

With a raised eyebrow, calmly: ”Usually only kids eat these. I didn’t think you’d like them too. Otherwise, I’d have bought other flavors for you to adapt. The stick exists so children don’t swallow candy that’s too big and choke. You adults shouldn’t be making such a childish mistake, right?”

”So, have you sorted out your matters?” Yan calmly chewed up the lollipop and swallowed it before speaking, ”Can we go over there and have a look now?”

Looking straight up at the sky.

Luo Qianqian followed his gaze, surprised at when something had appeared in the sky, resembling battleships.

After a long silence, she nodded, realizing that not solving the problem at its root would eventually lead the country into a crisis.

”I’ll go find someone, wait here.” Luo Qianqian went directly inside to call Old Master Fang, who was still in the conference room.

As the current person in charge, Fang Enze wasn’t surprised to receive Luo Qianqian’s call but was quite shocked upon hearing her request.

Heading to that place now is akin to entering the dragon’s lair?

If Luo Qianqian were to suffer an accident, it would be a significant loss for the country, especially if what she says is true and it’s just a vanguard...

”Chief, if we don’t address those things from the start, and they infiltrate all countries gradually, it will be even more harmful. Our country is vast and resourceful; sooner or later it will be on their radar.” Luo Qianqian didn’t hesitate, having returned for this very matter?

”Then I’ll give you five hundred...”

”Don’t send anyone... Well, wait, have someone fly us over, but apart from that, not a single person. More people would just be a burden. As I said, we’re not going there to deliver resources. Our people are healthy and will naturally attract attention from those things, so no extras.” Luo Qianqian glanced at the four men at the door, lips curved. ”Just the five of us, but if you’re really worried, provide a direct line? Once we’ve resolved it, have someone pick us up. We’re going without visas here...”

Luo Qianqian spoke earnestly, nearly convincing Fang Enze, who understood her logic. The effort to cultivate talents is no easy feat, so expending a batch would truly be...

”I’ll send someone to pick you up in two hours.” Old Master Fang concluded, calmly ending the call and turning to the conference room crowd, maintaining a serious tone, ”She’s heading over there.”

They had just received news of anomalies in the sky, yet Luo Qianqian had already volunteered to take the initiative.

She doesn’t evade despite the sky’s peculiarity, which leaves them somewhat embarrassed.

Fang Enze remained silent for a long time: ”Old Li, provide her with a direct line. With our full support!”
