Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack-Chapter 651 - 631: Someone Following?

Luo Qianqian didn’t speak and closed her eyes, carefully recalling the scene as she went downstairs just now. It was clean and tidy, with no signs of a struggle, nor any smell of blood. So she wasn’t taken away to be turned into "human dumplings"...

"What nonsense are you thinking about now?" Luo Xiying, as Luo Qianqian’s uncle, was somewhat aware of his niece’s wild imagination.

"Nothing," Luo Qianqian quickly waved her hands. She really hoped it was all just her wild thoughts. Why did it feel like this situation was so targeted? Why was it her who received that note? And those familiar hands, they looked so much like Elvis’s.

And that woman who was obviously posing, wasn’t she odd? Why hadn’t anyone noticed her?

Moreover, Hei Yu didn’t communicate with anyone throughout the whole process...

After pondering for a long time, Luo Qianqian gave up on thinking any further. She felt her brain capacity wasn’t suited for such problems.

Scratching her head, she asked, "Uncle, when are you leaving?"

Luo Xiying gave Luo Qianqian a glance. She’s asking this question not even half an hour after they met? Not afraid of getting a beating...

"Tomorrow morning."

"Ah? That early? I thought you were also on a Golden Week holiday," Luo Qianqian gasped, but quickly regained her senses, her face turning sheepish, "Ignore me, I’m a bit out of it."

Jimo Cheng glanced at Luo Qianqian with a helpless expression on his face. She was still a child, unable to hide her emotions.

When had he started becoming so reticent? It seemed to be since Baozi died. Without sharing his thoughts with anyone, he naturally became this way, until he met Luo Qianqian, who made him feel like speaking his heart out.

A brief moment of relief flashed across his face, but Bai Yixian didn’t miss the expression he had after looking at Luo Qianqian. For a moment, he wasn’t sure how to react, sighing inwardly.

After all, Luo Qianqian was someone arranged by her family. They seemed to get along well. As for him, wanting to gain the family’s approval seemed harder than reaching the heavens. Recalling Luo Qianqian’s encouragement, he couldn’t help but smile knowingly. Such a sharp child. Perhaps she would do well even in a big clan like the Jimo Family? Even though Jimo Cheng wasn’t highly regarded, one couldn’t deny that Jimo Kong was still an indomitable presence in the Jimo Family. As Jimo Kong’s most cherished grandson, engaged to the Luo Family, would this young man keep his Dan Ran heart, not striving for more, calm as water?

"After you guys have eaten and returned to the hotel, don’t come out," Luo Xiying suddenly said, "I have a feeling someone is following us."

Luo Qianqian shuddered and then quickly turned to look behind her. The tea-colored car windows were dark inside; naturally, she wasn’t worried about people outside seeing their movements, especially since the car was still moving.

"There are two taxis, a private car, and two buses behind us," Luo Qianqian immediately reported the vehicles she saw.

Luo Xiying was speechless. Did it matter what kind of vehicle was used for tailing as long as it wasn’t suspicious? Even using a wheelchair for surveillance wasn’t entirely impossible.

"Further back, there’s a white car I’ve seen several times," said Jimo Cheng. He had been watching out the car window, and Luo Qianqian thought he was just being shy and didn’t know what to say. Turns out he was looking at that?

"I didn’t notice anything. Uncle, did you steal someone’s fruits and not pay? Is the owner chasing after us?" Luo Qianqian had eaten a small fruit earlier, which tasted excellent. She was thinking of saving some for Xiao Yu’s Mother, godmother, grandma, little sister, and aunt, which is why she didn’t continue eating. And why not Lin Xu, Lin Jiayou, He Jun, Old Lady An, and Li Sheng? Because in Luo Qianqian’s mind, men weren’t too keen on fruits.

Well, except for her Fourth Brother.

Saying so, she still took an unknown fruit and offered it to Jimo Cheng in the front seat, "Senior Brother, try it, it’s really sweet."

Jimo Cheng smiled as he received it and wiped the fruit with a tissue before stuffing it into his mouth without making a sound.

But the next second, the smile on his face stiffened, turning into an indescribable mix of pain and discomfort, "... you better not eat this fruit ..."

Luo Qianqian was stunned for a moment, then she caught the teeth-achingly sour scent ...

"Ah, this looks delicious, but it’s actually extremely sour," Luo Xiying said helplessly. He had brought just one, planning to tease Luo Qianqian, but he forgot about it, and now she had given it to Jimo Cheng to eat.

Luo Qianqian’s mouth twitched, "Senior brother, I’m sorry..."

Luo Xiying took out a bottle of soda water from the box on the ground and handed it to Jimo Cheng, "Drink some water, it’ll help. You should spit it out; now’s not the time to worry about appearances." He was clearly prepared.

Bai Yixian nodded again and again. The taste was really unbearable. He had only tasted a little bit but he never wanted to eat anything sour again for the rest of his life, not even sweet and sour, it was that intense.

"What is this?" Luo Qianqian pouted, looking at Luo Xiying. The smell was more potent than lemons or vinegar. Wasn’t keeping such a thing in his bag just setting people up for trouble? What if his mother ate it, wouldn’t she beat someone up?

"It’s fruit that grows in the mountains; it’s edible," Luo Xiying touched his nose. It was used by others to make fruit vinegar, and even the locals had commented on his courage for trying it.

"Are you sure?" Luo Qianqian looked skeptical.

Luo Xiying glared at her, and Luo Qianqian stopped talking, her eyes filled with concern as she looked at Jimo Cheng. She felt incredibly guilty, even though it was unintentional.

Bai Yixian frowned, "It seems to be those people over there..." his voice was filled with seriousness.

Luo Xiying paused, then patted the top of Luo Qianqian’s head, "Be a good girl and study hard. Don’t be so impulsive next time. If there’s trouble, find Wild Wolf and the others." He then pushed the backpack filled with fruit into Luo Qianqian’s arms, "Yixian, pull over."

"Jimo Cheng, take good care of my niece." After saying this, he opened the door and let Luo Qianqian out of the car. Bai Yixian in the front seat quickly opened the door to let Jimo Cheng out, "You two take a taxi. We’ll be fine, don’t worry."

"Be careful, little uncle, Big Brother Bai, call me when you are safe," Luo Qianqian said with a face full of anxiety.

Luo Xiying nodded, closed the car door, and the car sped away.

Without concern, Jimo Cheng slung the slightly dirty backpack over his shoulder and put an arm protectively around Luo Qianqian’s shoulder, "Let’s go."

"Okay." Luo Qianqian followed Jimo Cheng without hesitation. If there were any problems with the two of them, it would be even more trouble, which is why Luo Xiying had let them go. As long as those people weren’t after these two children, they were confident they could leave safely.

"It seems they’re after us," Luo Xiying said as he observed the trailing cars not decreasing in number and let out a sigh of relief. He wasn’t idle in the car, rapidly contacting the Luo Family’s people nearby to protect Luo Qianqian.

"Yes, with Mo Studio protecting Qianqian, they wouldn’t dare to make a move," Bai Yixian also breathed a sigh of relief, "It looks like we need to leave tonight."

"Yes..."
