Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 1176 - 701: Relationship Takes a Step Forward (3)

”You can take me to your home and let me know your background, which is the greatest trust. Rest assured, I won’t misunderstand you, nor will I create a rift between you and my brother because of me.”

Wen Su looked at her unexpectedly, a smile forming at the corner of his lips: ”Qingqing, thank you for understanding. Since you’re so honest, I won’t hide anything from you either. My little uncle’s marriage is quite smooth, and I don’t want to become another little uncle. So, I hope that when two people are together, it’s because they truly understand and feel that it’s right, not based on any form of benefit.”

Lu Qingqing laughed: ”If it were really based on benefits, you wouldn’t even try with me. Although my family’s conditions are good, compared to yours, they’re nothing. I suppose, in this lifetime, my family won’t be able to offer any help.”

”Not necessarily.” Wen Su laughed, ”These things can’t really be predicted.”

”Ah!” Lu Qingqing sighed heavily, ”I find that being straightforward about feelings and interacting openly with you feels really comfortable.

Before, I was always afraid of upsetting you, so I constantly held back and didn’t dare say anything. Even I felt like I was some kind of fake person.

Not to lie, when I came downstairs before, seeing your gentle expression while on the phone made me start overthinking, which is why I kept my steps so light and sneaked behind you, hehe. Telling you now, you won’t be mad, right?”

”Qingqing, if you were always this honest, who knows, I might have made up my mind earlier.” Wen Su looked at her seriously, ”Now, I can’t even distinguish which is the real you. However, time is the best proof. I’ll wait.”

”I’ll wait too.” Lu Qingqing took a long breath, ”Ah, thinking openly happens in a flash. If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have worn Juanjuan’s shoes. They’re pinching my feet.”

”Liking someone, appearance only matters a bit. People grow old and may become less attractive. The key is whether the personalities of two people are compatible.”

”I understand that principle too, but previously, I just couldn’t do it...”

”...”

Dating for half a year, this is the warmest and closest they’ve ever felt.

...

”Sister Qingqing, you’re here! Wow, you look so beautiful today!”

Wen Su and Lu Qingqing had just entered the hall when Wen Nan rushed over. Wen Su quickly pushed him aside: ”Stop fooling around, Sister Qingqing’s feet are hurting.”

”How stingy, you’re just afraid I’ll hug Sister Qingqing!” Wen Nan pouted and stepped aside.

”So this is the future second sister-in-law, huh? She’s so pretty. Second brother, you’d better take good care of her, or if she gets snatched away, you’ll cry with nowhere to go.” Luo Ye greeted with a smile.

With thin black willow eyebrows, watery phoenix eyes, skin delicate enough to squeeze out water, a perfect oval face, stylish and neat short hair, and a graceful figure wrapped in cool camouflage clothing, she exudes an indescribable charm. Such a girl...such a girl is hard not to like... Lu Qingqing observed Luo Ye and couldn’t help but secretly admire.

Luo Ye was also observing Lu Qingqing. Crescent eyebrows, long eyes, a straight nose bridge, sexy lips, slightly curled big waves that make her look more charming, a pink outfit that completely highlights her tall and sexy figure, and even without makeup, she’s a pretty girl.

Her gaze moved to Lu Qingqing’s feet. Luo Ye poked Wen Ke standing next to her: ”Sis, let’s take the second sister-in-law to your room to hang out, okay? Second brother, you don’t mind, right?”

Wen Su glared at her: ”Call her Sister Qingqing. After I’ve greeted the elders with Qingqing, you can all go upstairs together.” The elders were smiling benevolently at this side, letting a group of younger ones play around.

After greeting the elders, Lu Qingqing was escorted upstairs by Luo Ye and Wen Ke, one on each side. As soon as they entered the room, Luo Ye handed her a pair of slippers from the shoe rack: ”Sister Qingqing, change your shoes.”

”Thank you!” Lu Qingqing’s eyes were full of gratitude, for their thoughtfulness and kindness. These are things not everyone would notice or think of.

”No need to be so polite. It’s what we should do.”

”Qingqing, I totally understand your feelings, really...” Wen Ke teased pointing at Luo Ye, ”With such a naughty sister-in-law, of course you’d be especially nervous, and then while wanting to look good, you wouldn’t care about comfort, right?”

”Who’s the naughty sister-in-law?” Luo Ye hugged Wen Ke, shaking her head downward, ”Say, who’s the naughty sister-in-law?”

”Help... Qingqing, did you see that? She normally bullies me like this. So, who else but her could be the naughty sister-in-law?”

Although Wen Ke said that, her arms dangled happily, enjoying it a lot.

Lu Qingqing wasn’t aware of Luo Ye’s strength, but she was quite frightened, quickly slipping into slippers, helping Luo Ye hold Wen Ke’s waist: ”Ye’er, put Ke down, in case her neck gets hurt, that’s real trouble.”

”Relax, with her strength, it’s no problem holding the two of us.” Wen Ke said while comfortably swinging back and forth, ”She’s the female Hercules. Besides, if she breaks me, she’d have to take care of me for life. Then, I’d stick beside her every day, leaving her no time to be lovey-dovey with her husband, let’s see who regrets it then.”

Luo Ye used force, spun her around, and tossed her onto the bed: ”Sister Ke, can you not be so vulgar? We’re all unmarried girls here. Look at the things you’re saying.”

Wen Ke rolled over quickly, leaning against the head of the bed: ”Oh please, isn’t marriage inevitable? So, what’s the deal between you and Ye Xuan? Come on, report to me.”

”You shameless rogue.” Luo Ye pulled Lu Qingqing onto the couch, ”Sister Qingqing, let’s ignore her. What would you like to drink? Tea, juice, or coffee?”

”Ye’er, no need, don’t busy yourself...” Lu Qingqing quickly stood up, ”I’m not thirsty.”

Wen Ke had already put on her shoes, hearing that, she laughed: ”Sitting idly is so awkward. We’re just worried that you’d feel uncomfortable sitting with the elders, so we brought you up. If you’re still so polite, we’ll take you back downstairs.”

Lu Qingqing chuckled embarrassedly: ”Then tea, it won’t make me gain weight.”

Wen Ke plopped down grandly, gesturing to Luo Ye: ”Little Ye’er, hurry up and make us some tea.”

”Little Ke, just you wait, I’ll make it soon. I’ll make you so excited tonight that you can’t sleep.” Luo Ye grumbled as she went to get the tea container.

After a bit of commotion like this, the relationships among the few people quickly became closer, and Lu Qingqing felt much more at ease. Once the tea was ready, she gratefully raised her cup towards the two: ”Though it may seem odd, I still want to say, let me use tea instead of wine to toast my two sisters. I know your goofing around is just to help me feel relaxed. I...I’ll drink first to show my respect.”

”No, it’s too hot!”

Just as Luo Ye finished speaking, the water was already in Lu Qingqing’s stomach, and she quickly put down the teacup, pinching the spot near her throat and sticking her tongue out.

”Qingqing, you’re too cute.” Wen Ke said while laughing so hard she could barely catch her breath.

Lu Qingqing embarrassedly covered her flushed face: ”Ke is the worst!”

Luo Ye looked at Wen Ke and Lu Qingqing: ”Which of you is older?”

”Guess.” Wen Ke replied swiftly.

”I asked because I couldn’t tell.” Luo Ye glanced a few more times, ”It seems like Sister Qingqing might be a little older than Sister Ke.”

Lu Qingqing nodded: ”Yes, I’m older than Ke, although we’re the same age, my birthday is earlier. I’m originally from Ludong, and kids there start school late. My brother and Wen Su are classmates, but he’s three years older than Wen Su.”

Luo Ye paused, looked at Wen Ke, who shook her head: ”I don’t know either. Last time Sister Qingqing came to our house, she was taken away by second brother in less than five minutes. We didn’t have time to talk, and when we asked second brother, he just said we’d find out in good time.”
