Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 1462: Chapter 1442: Still Scheming

Seeing the items on the list, Jin Xianchuan also took a deep breath. However, thinking of the earlier miracle, he felt that these items were worth asking for.

He then nodded: ”Some of these are available at my residence, so I’ll fetch them for Sister Shiqi!”

”Really? That’s wonderful!” Luo Qianqian immediately showed an expression of excitement. If one didn’t know better, Old Master Hua would really think Luo Qianqian was genuinely happy.

Jin Xianchuan did not hesitate a bit, directly leaving the Hua Residence to send someone back to the Jin Residence with a message, and then waited at the Hua Residence.

He couldn’t guarantee that once he left, Hua Nianyi and Old Man Hua wouldn’t tell Luo Qianqian about these matters.

Very soon, the items arrived, accompanied by the current Family Head of the Jin Family, Jin Xianchuan’s father, Jin Fulai.

”Achuan, what’s going on?” Jin Fulai frowned, looking at the members of the Hua family chatting and laughing, for a moment unable to discern the truth.

He had long known his son had been entangled with this married Hua family woman, but surely not planning to use these things as a bride price to marry this woman?

Immediately, his gaze towards Hua Nianyi was filled with disdain. Even if she was unmarried, wanting to join the Jin Family wouldn’t be that easy. If it’s just for a concubine, it wouldn’t matter. After all, Jin Xianchuan’s courtyard was filled with Brothel oirans, well-bred young ladies, all brought into his courtyard. These women had no status but recognized their position, not coveting things that didn’t belong to them. Jin Xianchuan was also willing to give them some benefits.

Originally, he hadn’t planned on coming, but because Jin Xianchuan asked for such precious items, he had to investigate.

”Father.” Seeing the Patriarch of the Jin Family arrive, Jin Xianchuan visibly relaxed, quickly pulling his father aside to whisper, while his gaze remained fixed on Hua Nianyi, fearing she might say something to ruin matters.

Upon hearing his son’s words, Jin Fulai was also shocked; such valuable items? The Hua Family truly has deep foundations!

Immediately, he felt tempted; in such a case, allowing Hua Nianyi to bring that item as a dowry would be acceptable. This made Hua Nianyi seem more agreeable.

However, he suddenly noticed a woman and two men sitting near Old Master Hua and frowned slightly. Who are these people? Why do they ignore the might of the Jin Family?

”Father.” Jin Xianchuan hurriedly pulled Jin Fulai aside and quickly explained the situation briefly.

Suddenly, Jin Fulai’s expression changed dramatically, realizing they had arrived a step too late? But looking at that young girl who appeared quite naive, getting benefits should make her reluctant to say anything further.

”Jin Xianchuan, come here.” Receiving a hint from Luo Qianqian, Hua Nianyi took a deep breath and called him out.

Jin Xianchuan hurriedly followed, afraid that Hua Nianyi might speak out and expose them.

After all, the Heaven Chosen Pearl currently belongs to Hua Nianyi, Sister Shiqi.

Hua Nianyi, with a cold face, looked at Jin Xianchuan: ”I can avoid exposing you, but I have conditions.”

”What conditions?” Hearing Hua Nianyi say this, he breathed a sigh of relief; as long as negotiation is possible, now the Heaven Chosen Pearl is far more important than women.

”Once this matter is settled, do not entangle with our Hua Family further. You need to find someone to notarize and sign this agreement.” Hua Nianyi stated word by word: ”Then, you need to compensate our family. The elixir that Shiqi possesses cannot be exchanged as our family’s current secret treasure. You are responsible for providing the remaining items sufficient to compensate Shiqi.”

”Hua Nianyi, don’t be excessive!” Jin Xianchuan suddenly became angry, grabbing Hua Nianyi’s wrist, his gaze sinister: ”I wouldn’t mind taking you right in front of your father and sister!”

”Ha, then I wouldn’t mind revealing that you’re not my husband, just an unprincipled rogue. I believe Sister Shiqi’s family will stand up for me.” Hua Nianyi calmly looked at Jin Xianchuan, unfazed.

Ever since Luo Qianqian appeared, the entire situation for the Jin family was bound to reverse.

Although not knowing how the supposed Heaven Chosen Pearl operates, there’s no doubt that it’s something Luo Qianqian took out to toy with him.

”You!” Jin Xianchuan looked at Hua Nianyi, breathing heavily in anger, yet had to admit that Hua Nianyi’s threat hit his soft spot.

He is now determined to obtain the Heaven Chosen Pearl from the Hua family.

”I’ll find someone right now! If your sister knows, you’ll regret it!” Jin Xianchuan was furious, yet helpless.

When they returned, they both appeared smiling, seemingly very harmonious, while Luo Qianqian on the other side was validating the items, occasionally letting out surprised laughter.

”Thank you, brother-in-law. On this list, only these few are hardest to find, I’ve wanted to ask Sister Xiao Hua to take me to the auction.” Luo Qianqian looked extremely excited, showing no sense of scheming, making Jin Xianchuan quite satisfied.

He immediately laughed: ”Sister Shiqi, no need to be polite; if there’s anything else you need, just let me know. We’re all family, don’t be shy.”

Luo Qianqian looked at Jin Xianchuan with joy, her face full of excitement.

”I’ve booked accommodations, why not let Sister Shiqi rest first? Traveling must be tiring.” Jin Xianchuan added.

”Can I rest in Sister Xiao Hua’s room? We used to sleep together before.”

Luo Qianqian innocently replied, but Jin Xianchuan, still worried looking at Hua Nianyi, laughed: ”Sister Shiqi rest first, tonight let your Sister Xiao Hua sleep with you.”

Deciding internally to settle everything soon to avoid changes.

Seeing Jin Xianchuan make a decision, Jin Fulai, though perplexed, didn’t interject.

Hua Nianyi naturally found people to escort the three to rest.

However, after they left, Old Master Hua immediately changed his expression, pulling Hua Nianyi behind him and vigilantly watching the two.

This act further convinced Jin Xianchuan of the feasibility of the matter, arranging for trustworthy and official personnel to be found.

In a low voice, Hua Nianyi explained to Old Master Hua, whose expression changed repeatedly but remained somber, looking at Hua Nianyi and harshly stated: ”The item is already Shiqi’s; you are still the elder sister, how could you!”

”Father, I don’t want to have any further ties with him, please fulfill your daughter’s wish; Shiqi’s family won’t lack in rare treasures like these...”

Upon hearing this, Jin Fulai’s expression changed; this suggests the little girl is even more valuable? Never lacking treasures in the future?

If our Jin Family gains such assistance...
