Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack
Chapter 1408 - 1388: Lu Simiao Returns
When Luo Qianqian was lifted up at the airport, she felt a bit dumbfounded.
Can anyone tell her, did Lu Simiao grow up eating hormones? Why did he suddenly shoot up so tall???
And did he eat Popeye’s spinach? Carrying a suitcase and still holding her up with one hand???
"Put me down." Luo Qianqian felt a bit embarrassed; clearly she was the older sister, so why did she feel like the little sister now? Height really is a disadvantage!!!
Lu Simiao chuckled and took out a delicate little box from his pocket: "Sister, a coming-of-age gift." Inside was a beautiful brooch: "It’s not worth much, it’s bought with the first money I earned, hope you like it."
"Our family’s little brother can earn money now, that’s impressive." Luo Qianqian received the gift, smiling happily, and pinned it to her chest without any disdain, twirling around in place: "Does it look good?"
"Looks good." Lu Simiao nodded with a smile: "Sister picked me up, planning to take me to eat something delicious?"
"Of course there’s something delicious, I had someone make it at home, let’s go." At such a young age, already grown so tall, Luo Qianqian sincerely doubted if she really was a little shortie.
Even with the potential to grow taller, she was stuck at this height, while everyone around her kept growing taller.
Even someone she loves dearly like An Hao is bound to be taller than her in the future.
"How long are you two going to keep being lovey-dovey siblings? Let’s go." Elvis looked at the two chatting and joking on the spot, feeling helpless, and had to speak up.
Luo Qianqian was startled, then hastily grabbed the suitcase to lead Lu Simiao out, but Lu Simiao just smiled and held Luo Qianqian’s hand: "I’ll carry the suitcase, sister just needs to lead me."
"Alright." Luo Qianqian happily led Lu Simiao to the car, Lu Simiao even brought a gift for Elvis, not very expensive but with a lot of thought.
Elvis gladly accepted it with no awkwardness, after all, they used to live in the same neighborhood, effectively making them neighbors.
"By the way, sis." Lu Simiao said suddenly, munching on the jerky Luo Qianqian casually tossed him in the car. Seeing Luo Qianqian turn to look at him, he sheepishly said: "The people I brought, they aren’t free... if we can’t agree on the price, I’ll help negotiate."
"Huh? What people?" Luo Qianqian was all puzzled, she didn’t know anything.
Elvis looked disdainfully at this basically clueless Luo Qianqian, shook his head, and said to Lu Simiao: "I’ll talk to you about that stuff later, your sister doesn’t handle these things."
Lu Simiao was momentarily surprised, then nodded as if it was obvious: "Girls should be carefree, just thinking about what to wear and eat every day is enough, simple..."
"What a good kid." Luo Qianqian wholeheartedly agreed, patting Lu Simiao’s shoulder with admiration.
Where can you find such a good boy? I wonder which lucky girl will end up with him in the future.
Luo Qianqian laughed cheerfully, while Elvis felt a chilling wave: "Luo Qianqian, it’s one thing if you’re matchmaking for yourself, but are you aiming for your brother’s girlfriend too? Can you let people have free love? This isn’t a feudal society anymore, my dear."
"What, you have a problem? Don’t worry, after I find a sister-in-law for my brother, I’ll find one for you." Luo Qianqian was smug, not the least bit ashamed of her matchmaking behavior.
"No, Shufan still..."
Luo Qianqian burst into laughter: "My brother will spoil me for several years more, I don’t want him to find a sister-in-law too soon, I’d get jealous."
But the real reason is... Elvis might be fooled, but not Luo Shufan. It affects the happiness of me and my mom, so it must be taken seriously.
In-law relations and sister-in-law relations are very important, you can’t just mess around with them.
"I pamper you a lot too, you see, don’t I always do whatever you say?"
"But my brother doesn’t, he always offers opinions, he won’t do anything unreasonable." Luo Qianqian snorted: "I’d say you’re just jealous of my brother, so smart..."
"Sister-complex is tough." Elvis was speechless.
Clearly, Luo Qianqian’s brothers are all over, yet she only gets serious when it comes to Luo Shufan’s affairs.
Guess it’s the power of blood relations?
Sigh...
At the villa, An Hao looked at the tall Lu Simiao getting out of the car and blinked, then turned to Luo Qianqian: "Sister, where did you find another big brother this time?"
Don’t make it sound like I’m always picking people up left and right, okay? Luo Qianqian clenched her fist, then helplessly lifted An Hao who was clinging to her leg: "This is sister’s brother, your brother, Lu Simiao." Then she turned to Lu Simiao: "This is my brother, An Hao, my mom and brother are a bit busy, so I’m taking care of him."
"Although that’s the case, it’s basically me taking care of him." He Wenyu appeared with a smile: "Hi, I’m He Wenyu, Qhianqhian’s sister, just call me Sister Xiao Yu."
"Sister Xiao Yu." Lu Simiao was very tactful, earning high praise from He Wenyu.
But An Hao hugged Luo Qianqian’s neck, looking defensively at Lu Simiao: "Sister is mine, I won’t give her to you."
Lu Simiao burst into laughter, then paused and seriously nodded to An Hao: "Hmm, she’s yours."
Lu Simiao knew An Hao well, after all, he was Luo Qianqian’s real brother.
He then looked around: "Where’s Sister Nuannuan?"
"Nuannuan is pregnant, can’t move around too much, she’s resting." Luo Qianqian spread her hands, a face full of helplessness.
Pregnant... 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚
Lu Simiao had a weird expression, wasn’t Luo Qianqian just of age? Yet her friend is already pregnant and about to have kids?
"And it’s twins." He Wenyu proudly boasted when she heard Lu Simiao knew Qin Nuan.
How rare is it to have someone close having twins?
"Wow..." Lu Simiao was greatly surprised, looking at He Wenyu with delight, but then frowned: "Does that mean I have to prepare an extra gift?"
"No rush, there’s still time." Luo Qianqian quickly smiled and shook her head, pulling Lu Simiao into the house, then they moved to the backyard where a distinguished man was barbecuing.
"Second Uncle, Dad, this is Lu Simiao, my brother." Luo Qianqian naturally introduced.
Lu Simiao quickly greeted everyone, and in just one meal, he became familiar with everyone.
And Elvis was in no hurry to talk business, savoring the leisurely and comfortable moment.
