Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 1825: Chapter 1805:

”...I always feel like there’s so much I don’t know.” Luo Qianqian sighed again, then looked at Mo, ”Hurry and eat your meal; it will get cold soon. By the way, should we continue using the elixir I brought this time for Nianan’s bath?”

”...Yes, your elixir is ready, but there’s a bit of trouble. I’ll tell you later.” Mo sighed, then said.

Luo Qianqian paused, and her eyes lit up.

The fact that she couldn’t consume the monthly assessment prize had always been a bit bothersome; it made her feel uncomfortable. After all, when everyone else could use them but she couldn’t, it was like everyone was progressing while she was stuck in place, or others were on a high-speed train while she was riding a bicycle. It was really frustrating.

Mo’s words now were like summer fireworks, instantly bringing a surge of joy to her heart.

Watching the smile on Luo Qianqian’s face, Mo also smiled, leisurely enjoying his meal, relishing the peaceful moment while Lin Nianan was still resting.

After eating and drinking his fill, Mo calmly took out a beautiful purple wooden box. The wood faintly shimmered, irresistibly attracting the attention.

”There are eight elixirs inside, but with your current strength, consuming even one would be difficult to absorb. Moreover, any unabsorbed medicinal effects could turn into hidden aliments, accumulating in your meridians and potentially causing them to narrow...” Mo spoke calmly while looking at the box, after all, he was stating facts. And since the elixirs that Luo Qianqian brought wouldn’t be effective for her, he felt no guilt.

”Then what should I do?” Luo Qianqian was quite concerned about her strength, after all... she couldn’t afford to disregard her future.

Her future, in a sense, was also the future of Nine Heavens Pavilion. She might not care how she’ll live later, choosing to live and let live peacefully, but Nine Heavens Pavilion couldn’t do that. It needed a definitive path, and moreover, powerful guardians to escort it. And others, they can’t be trusted...

”Like Nianan.” Mo’s face flushed slightly.

”Huh?” Luo Qianqian paused, her eyes widening in surprise: ”Huh???”

”You can consume them too, but I did mention the potential risks, it’s up to you to weigh it.” He wouldn’t admit his bit of intentional persuasion.

After all... Luo Qianqian was destined to be part of his family. With this Twin Gu, there was no escaping it, so he was certain of it. Moreover, from now on, he seemed to have more opportunity than Yan in being with Luo Qianqian, right? So maybe even bathing in front of each other wasn’t much of a concern?

Luo Qianqian also felt immensely apprehensive, but from a certain angle, she trusted Mo.

For someone to take care of Lin Nianan without regret or complaint, that matter spread around, it would likely make even siblings or possibly parents unable to wholeheartedly care for someone else’s child, right? Not to mention the health kept up with Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

”Then... does it need frequent baths?” Luo Qianqian swallowed hard, if it’s occasional, she could accept it, after all... She could stay clothed, there was a screen here, she didn’t need to worry about other things.

”I have two bottles of Elixir Liquid here, roughly one bottle can be used for three times. How long you can use one dose, I don’t know, but about one bottle a month should be fine.” Mo wasn’t surprised by Luo Qianqian’s decision at all.

After all, he had been to Nine Heavens Pavilion, he understood more than anyone what Nine Heavens Pavilion meant to Luo Qianqian.

”Just pour it into the bath tub?” Luo Qianqian looked at the two Jade Vases in front of her, deeply breathed before asking.

”Yes.” Mo’s face also blushed slightly.

Thus, in Lin Nianan’s little basin, a wooden tub suddenly appeared on that day, different in size, one big, one small.

Luo Qianqian silently watched the steaming bath tub, she knew exactly how Mo heated the water; it must have taken quite the effort for such a large tub, right?

”I’ll take Nianan for a bath now.” Mo carefully poured a third of the Elixir Liquid into the bath tub and stopped, then smiled at Luo Qianqian, not daring to meet her eyes.

Luo Qianqian also flushed, full of helplessness, feeling like her face had probably turned into a ripe tomato yet couldn’t help it, after all... this wasn’t something he could control.

Mo pulled the screen, looking at Lin Nianan blinking with big eyes in front of him, full of exasperation: ”Let’s take a bath now, I’ll tell you the story of the Ugly Duckling today...”

Beyond the screen, gentle parental education was taking place, although the child and the adult had no real relation, it was still particularly beautiful.

On this side of the screen, Luo Qianqian, fully clothed, entered the tub, directly entered her cultivation state, very aware, she couldn’t afford to be left behind by her classmates.

Feeling the intense elemental waves from beyond the screen, Mo’s eyes also emitted brilliant light.

Though they were usually focused on cultivation without shielding or precautions against each other, now things were different. The current Luo Qianqian was cultivating in the bath tub, yet able to remain utterly focused, signifying... he was already a person she deeply trusted, right?

A trusted friend, he had long been one.

From when Luo Qianqian brought them into that technological world, so starkly different from here, impossible to imagine here, that side’s development was far beyond this side’s imagination.

And if not for trust, how would Luo Qianqian have brought them to that place? That place, if targeted by others, could spell disaster for Nine Heavens Pavilion!

This level of trust toward a friend was incredibly precious.

And this trust now was indeed more important to him.

His heart suddenly cleared up significantly, the next moment the air went chaotic, he was stunned into silence.

Luo Qianqian was also startled by the intense elemental fluctuations, exited her cultivation state: ”What happened?”

”Shiqi, take Nianan away; I... am going to break through.” Mo looked resigned, truly not expecting his breakthrough to come so easily.

Luo Qianqian quickly stepped out of the bath tub, with a swipe, flicked the water from her clothes back into the tub, exited the screen, and moved the wooden tub along.

Watching Luo Qianqian’s nervous state, Mo smiled: ”Don’t worry, looks like I need you to be my protector.”

”Rest assured.” Luo Qianqian nodded firmly.

Mo directly entered his state; after all, this kind of opportunity, could only be encountered but not sought.

Nianan also seemed to perceive the importance for Mo now, quietly splashing in the basin without making any noise.

The gathering of elements was getting faster, Luo Qianqian was also cautiously protecting Nianan, keeping her gaze fixed on Mo, worried any sudden incident might catch her off guard.

The element gathering lasted throughout the night...
