Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 1882: Chapter 1862:

Seeing that no one was talking, Luo Qianqian felt even more awkward and was at a loss. With no one responding, how could things continue?

Qin Nuan glanced at Lin Jiayou, only to find him checking Lin Nianan’s diaper with his head down...

She sighed, feeling utterly speechless. Who was this performance for, really? The supposed audience was not paying attention, no one continued the chatter, and the performers didn’t know the next part of the script...

”Big brother, what are you...” Luo Yanran chuckled, looking at the awkward trio, feeling helpless. Such matters, with what they say about three women making a drama, even four women couldn’t continue the show at this rate! After all, the audience was daydreaming...

Qin Nuan breathed a sigh of relief, blew a kiss to Luo Yanran.

Luo Yanran looked pleased.

”Oh dear, Cong Ying, why are you blushing?” He Wenyu and Luo Qianqian stood on either side of Cong Ying, laughing: ”Are you shy? Feeling embarrassed?”

Cong Ying said nothing, following Luo Qianqian’s whispered instructions, she grabbed a piece of red cloth, lowered her head, and cautiously stared at her toes.

”She’s blushing, her face is red, and even her ears are red...” He Wenyu laughed.

”Aren’t you guys bored...” Lin Jiayou was speechless but sighed at Luo Qianqian’s gaze: ”How hard are you making it for Brother Hai? Still have to act in your play...”

Uh oh, caught in the act...

Luo Qianqian and He Wenyu exchanged glances, feeling at a loss.

”If she meets the right person and leaves, there’s no problem, I won’t have any objections, but you shouldn’t make your brother accompany your antics like this,” Lin Jiayou said, looking at Luo Qianqian: ”Shiqi, you’re grown already, can’t we act a bit mature? Some things cannot be forced.”

As soon as the words fell, Luo Qianqian noticed Cong Ying’s aura change beside her; her figure seemed to waver slightly.

Although she wasn’t the main culprit, it was inevitable for her to be implicated. In the crowd, Lin Jiayou could only name her because of their sibling relationship.

The others included a god-sister and a cousin-in-law, who were not people he could easily speak to.

However, even if it was Luo Qianqian, he wouldn’t easily speak up, as they’re not blood-related, and their bond isn’t so deep. If any conflict arises between them, it would trouble the parents.

Although... under normal circumstances, it wouldn’t be his place to say anything.

Cong Ying paused briefly, seized the cloth, and dashed out swiftly, without any hesitation.

”Cong Ying!” He Wenyu chased after her immediately.

Luo Qianqian glared at Lin Jiayou: ”You’re an idiot brother! Who do you think we’re doing this for! You think you alone can take care of my nephew? Want someone’s help but don’t give them a title, how is that any different from being a scoundrel?!” After speaking, she also ran off, accelerating with a bit of worry along the two’s trail.

Luo Yanhai frowned, about to chase out but was stopped by Mo: ”You guys clean up, I got it.” After that, Mo lightly leaped onto the rooftop, choosing a direction to chase after.

Luo Yanran sighed helplessly, glancing at Qin Nuan: ”Let’s go, wife, I’ll help you with the fabric.”

”Mm, keep what Tantan needs.” Qin Nuan’s initial excitement vanished due to Lin Jiayou’s attitude, earlier it was because of Cong Ying’s genuine heart, now? This person deserved to be single!

Rejected mercilessly, furthermore hurting his own sister.

It’s right to reject when there’s no affection, but! There’s no free lunch in this world, not giving someone a title, unwilling to marry, yet expecting them to help raise a child? You think everyone’s your mom? Who pampers you like that?

Zhang Sheng decisively chose to take care of the child: ”Tantan, come here, brother will help you choose fabrics you like, okay?”

Tantan looked at Zhang Sheng, nodded obediently, then gazed at Lin Jiayou: ”Nianan’s mom ran away?”

Lin Jiayou turned, looked at Tantan, annunciated: ”Nianan doesn’t have a mom, his mom died when he was born!”

The expression seemed a bit vicious, scaring Tantan into burrowing in Zhang Sheng’s arms, starting to sob with a whimper.

”Don’t yell at Tantan.” Luo Yanran finished cleaning up, frowned immediately, handed Lin Nianan to Qin Nuan: ”The child got scared to tears, is that how you raise kids? Even if it’s the truth, you must consider the child’s ability to accept it, okay? Can you guarantee this is the result Nianan’s mom wants to see? Hopes you stay trapped in past shadows, hope Nianan knows all this to avenge her? Lin Jiayou, be realistic, every parent wishes for their child to grow up healthy and happy, who wishes for their child to live in hatred? Are you being a father or bringing up an enemy’s child?”

Meanwhile, under Luo Yanran’s candid lecturing, He Wenyu and Luo Qianqian caught up with Cong Ying, who was after all conspicuous and easily found with her bundle of fabric.

Seeing Cong Ying crouching and crying in the corner with the fabric, He Wenyu and Luo Qianqian felt somewhat helpless. Yet, calmly, they instinctively squatted down beside her on either side.

”You know, failure isn’t scary.” He Wenyu smiled: ”I’ve admired outstanding boys too, but... they all end up being my brothers...” Talking about this made her want to cry. In the past, she liked a celebrity, and what happened? The celebrity was Luo Qianqian’s cousin! Scary, huh? Although it brought them closer, it also drove them further apart.

”... What about me, I once had a boyfriend I really liked, like my sun, illuminating all my hopes for tomorrow. But, due to certain reasons, we split, and I ended up with someone else. Later split with them too, but still couldn’t be with him, he must’ve been really hurt, right? Or maybe he didn’t care what this awful woman thought, but I feel utterly guilty towards him. If there is a next life, I hope... he doesn’t meet me, so he won’t be sad again.” Luo Qianqian thought about Xu Tianyi, the former Tang Tianyi, and all those were bittersweet memories.

Mo stood in a hidden spot listening to all this in silence.

”Totally! I once had a boyfriend, too, I severed ties with Shiqi for him, like a total breakup of never seeing, what was the result... ah, the past is unbearable to recall, thinking about him now still gives me heartache.” He Wenyu nodded, compared to Xu Tianyi, clearly Zhao Wenxuan was even less worthy of her efforts.

Cong Ying looked at the two skeptically: ”You guys... have had boyfriends?”

”...Of course we have! The deeper the hurt, the deeper the love.” He Wenyu sighed: ”But fortunately, now nobody dares to hurt me.”

Luo Qianqian nodded: ”Totally, plus, as far as I can see, my future holds promises of brightness.” Whether it’s Mo or Yan, both are strong enough to protect Nine Heavens Pavilion.
