Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 1948: Chapter 1928:

”Girls are the best!” The old man patted his belly with emotion after eating, looking at He Wenyu with a face full of emotion: ”When you two can enter the Inner Court, I will definitely pave the way for you as your mentor. You two are simply wonderful!”

Watching the satisfied, smiling old man leave, He Wenyu was dumbfounded: ”What’s going on? Is he suddenly crazy? Or what? Is he too tired recently and hasn’t rested well?”

”I don’t think so, he doesn’t have dark circles either.” Luo Qianqian said seriously.

Soon, An Hao and Tantan ran into the kitchen, each holding a familiar token.

”Sister, the old man from earlier gave these to us. What are they for?” An Hao swung the token around, not feeling like he was holding anything particularly amazing.

After all, the old man casually tossed them over and even hummed at Brother Mo, who was planting a tree.

”These are the selection qualifications to become a student here.” Luo Qianqian sighed: ”But there’s no rush; you can wait a few years before coming. Coming too early can lead to bullying. Without strength, you’ll be laughed at.”

”We can come here?” An Hao’s eyes lit up: ”Then I can come now and go to school with Sister?”

He Wenyu immediately had a black line over his head...

Speaking of which, they also came to go to school together and... inadvertently skipped a grade.

There’s no need to learn what you’ve already learned again, right?

Besides, it’s not like they’ve forgotten it; they still remember, so there’s no need to consolidate it again.

But as for these two kids now?

Heh...

If they encounter something like Long Tu, they’d have no place to cry!

”An Hao, you have to understand, this is not a school; it’s a place for cultivation. You don’t want to look like a child forever, right? So it’s not about creating drama by cultivating too early. Plus, if you can’t pass the test, you won’t have a second chance after going home crying. Wouldn’t it be better to wait until you’re ready to come?” Luo Qianqian seriously persuaded him. After all, this was her younger brother, her biological brother, and she couldn’t bear to scold or hit him for acting mischievously, so she could only try to move him with reason.

He Wenyu also nodded: ”And, after so many years, you’ll grow up soon. So, don’t rush too much and focus on doing what you should be doing at your age now.”

Tantan tilted his head, looking at his token, and after a while, asked confusedly: ”What should we do now, Sister?”

”You should play carefree, play with whoever you like. You don’t need to worry about anything at your age. When you grow up, you might not always be able to be with the people you like, as everyone will have their own ideas, making things complicated.” He Wenyu replied with a smile.

An Hao, now with a black line over his head, ran to Luo Qianqian’s side, tugged on her clothes, and made her bend down.

Luo Qianqian bent down, thinking An Hao was about to say something he didn’t want Tantan and He Wenyu to hear.

”Smack.”

A crisp sound echoed as An Hao revealed his little white teeth: ”I like Sister the most!”

Luo Qianqian was momentarily stunned, then smiled and kissed An Hao on the cheek: ”Sister likes An Hao too, super likes!” ℯℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Tantan watched this scene, pouted, but ultimately said nothing. Instead, he gave He Wenyu a loud and wet kiss.

He Wenyu also returned the favor by kissing her on the cheek, pushing her out of the kitchen with a smile: ”Alright, you two go help Brother Mo; it’s dangerous for kids to be in here while I’m cooking.”

Hearing this, An Hao obediently left, and Tantan followed suit, without any complaints.

Watching the two children’s backs, He Wenyu raised an eyebrow: ”Do you think kids always imitate the people they like?”

”So, according to you, we all liked my brother when we were kids?” Luo Qianqian rolled her eyes: ”I remember you saying you hated my brother when you were little because he wouldn’t let you eat snacks and forced you to do homework.”

He Wenyu smiled awkwardly: ”What did I know back then? Come on, let’s cook, no more talking about the past...”

Luo Qianqian quietly helped for a while, handling everything she could, and then she got shooed out, under the guise of preventing her from jinxing the kitchen...

Once outside, Luo Qianqian wasn’t quite free either; she still had to water the trees.

Watching the clouds rain only over the trees, An Hao and Tantan widened their eyes, filled with disbelief.

”Sister, Sister, if it can rain, can it rain lollipops too?” An Hao looked at Luo Qianqian eagerly.

Luo Qianqian was at a loss... she was just a cultivator, not a mage, wasn’t a lollipop too far-fetched?

But ice pops, the flavorless kind, should be doable. Just unsure if it would satisfy a child’s curiosity...

”Sister... I was just asking casually, no need to consider it so seriously...” An Hao saw Luo Qianqian in deep thought and hastily added; he had just seen it in a cartoon and asked casually, plus he wasn’t that fond of sweets.

Luo Qianqian felt a bit helpless, getting tangled up over a casual question?

Indeed, the ”ten thousand whys period” is when children make you headache enough to wish you had a cold and couldn’t speak.

They want to ask about everything, and the questions are often hard to answer.

Answering ”no” could shatter a child’s dream, leaving them disappointed.

Answering ”yes”... well, that’s a promise the subject truly can’t keep!

Luo Qianqian looked at An Hao, ruffled his hair: ”When you can make it rain candy, do call Sister to see, Sister can’t do it yet; after all, Sister’s cultivation level is still shallow and too lazy to train.”

Upon hearing this, An Hao immediately nodded seriously: ”If An Hao can manage it, I will definitely show Sister, as An Hao likes Sister the most!”

Luo Qianqian felt her heart warm; even during the ”ten thousand whys period,” sometimes the words uttered offhandedly can be truly moving. This must be what makes childhood innocence so endearing?

Tantan also scooted over, sat on An Hao’s other side, and hurriedly declared: ”Tantan also likes Sister, super likes!”

”Alright, alright, you both are awesome, Sister likes you too.” Luo Qianqian said with a smile.

Mo watched the three of them sitting in a row on the bench, his expression softening, seemingly finding this feeling not bad either.

However, soon enough, they would realize that perhaps this moment’s quietness was just to accentuate the ferocity of the upcoming storm!

The darkest moments are just before dawn.

”Shiliu! Shiqi! Our class is blocked, they’re here for payback!” Di Jun ran in breathlessly, looking flustered, not even having time to care about the pleasant aroma.

”Who would dare do such a thing!” Luo Qianqian promptly stood up, eyes filled with anger.
