Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack
Chapter 1425 - 1405: Confession
Deng Ming and Wei Ming were like fools, not saying a word, no matter what they were asked, they knew nothing. For a moment, the old masters in charge were quite at a loss.
But having waited these days, they didn’t mind waiting another day. After all, the people were safely back, so they didn’t have to worry too much.
And the group of people who returned home silently followed Luo Qianqian back to the Cultivation World to recuperate and undergo the three-court trial...
Luo Shufan finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Luo Qianqian unharmed. He hugged his sister tightly, full of worry, unwilling to let go.
After briefly explaining to everyone, Luo Qianqian quietly appeared in the courtyard of Old Master Luo with her brother.
"Grandpa... I’m afraid this place might be exposed, right? But, I’m the only one who can freely come and go here," Luo Qianqian said with a bit of distress. Concealing this seemed like deception, but this was a place she needed to protect. She didn’t want it exposed.
However... those two people were soldiers after all. Naturally, soldiers prioritize national interests. How could they hide it just because she asked?
But at the time, they were simply burdens to have around...
"You think those people are fools?" Old Master Luo snorted, looking at Luo Shufan, "You too, think you can just leave people in the yard? Even if they don’t leave the yard, this place is different from the original world, and they’re not stupid."
Luo Shufan awkwardly scratched the back of his head, busy worrying about Luo Qianqian, who had time to care about those two?
"These few old men are more trustworthy and more powerful; just tell them. Anyway, you’re not entirely belonging to that side now. After you’ve made them anxious, it’s their headache to deal with," Old Master Luo calmly pulled out a piece of paper, which had several names on it, including Elder Deng and Elder Wei.
"Also, if necessary, let your dad show his identity. He’s no pushover. I heard him talking to your Second Uncle about the economic lifeline he controls now." Old Master Luo rolled his eyes, full of disdain, "In times like this, his skills are a bit useful. It’s better to use them than not. Later, bring me some shredded squid; I’ve been craving it."
"That’s high in cholesterol, not good," Luo Qianqian, still in shock, quickly shook her head in refusal.
Her principle was not to do anything harmful to the body.
The old man was getting on in years; consuming so much cholesterol wasn’t good.
"What if they want to come here?" Luo Qianqian was somewhat torn, "This place won’t change its inherent mode for them. Here, it’s my brother who calls the shots. No matter how noble people from that side are, my brother has the final say."
"You think they’d dare meddle in your affairs?" Old Master Luo also watched the footage recorded by Huangfu Yihui, almost fainting with anger.
What on earth? That ugly thing was left for his little granddaughter to handle? 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢
He hadn’t gone out to beat those old fools purely out of courtesy.
"Right... so if they want to come, should we let them?" Luo Qianqian furrowed her brow.
"With me here, I won’t let you be troubled," Old Master Luo patted his chest, quite excited at the prospect of seeing old friends.
After the two left the courtyard, Luo Qianqian lightly sighed, "Yan and Mo have consumed quite a bit. If you need anything, just let me know; I’ll take the Huangfu Brothers with me."
"You could bring Dad," Luo Shufan immediately suggested, "And Elvis, those two are constantly lingering in the kitchen pestering the generator." His face was full of exasperation, "But clearly, there’s no internet here."
"Hmm, aren’t you going out to have a look?" Luo Qianqian leaped onto Luo Shufan’s back, and he quickly caught her legs, letting her lounge steadily on him.
"Qin Nuan is about to give birth; let’s wait until she has the baby," Luo Shufan lightly sighed, "Have you lost weight?"
"How could that be? My body weight doesn’t change at all," Luo Qianqian pouted, full of helplessness as she looked at the Silver Ring on her hand, suddenly chuckling, "Later, shall I find Big Black and Xiao Hei to take this off and give it to you to wear?"
Looking at Luo Qianqian’s Silver Ring, Luo Shufan felt a head full of black lines. A big man like him, wearing this?
The brother and sister chatted affectionately for a while before Luo Qianqian left with the Huangfu Brothers, Elvis, and Luo Xinyue.
And An Hao, who came late, saw the smug look on her brother’s face and immediately started wailing, "Bad brother, sister came back without telling me!!!"
Luo Shufan felt innocent. He didn’t know when Luo Qianqian would return, and besides, there were no phones; how could he notify her?
The next early morning, Elvis drove Luo Qianqian and Luo Xinyue to the usual place.
He then waved lightly, "I’ll go shopping, and when I return, let Deng Ming take you back."
After saying this, he drove away leaving behind a trail of car exhaust.
The father and daughter exchanged looks, both sighing heavily.
This one’s picked up some bad habits.
Meanwhile, the meeting room was early to fill with people waiting.
Luo Xinyue was taken to the lounge by Deng Ming before Luo Qianqian was brought to the meeting room.
Luo Qianqian calmly handed over the camera, yawning, "You guys take a look first, Uncle Deng; prepare me some breakfast; I’m a bit hungry."
Deng Ming hurriedly went to prepare breakfast, while on the side, someone immediately connected the camera to the projector. At this time, no one felt anything was wrong with what Luo Qianqian did. After all, she had hurriedly come back through hardship.
After watching the contents of the camera, everyone was suddenly shocked, looking at Luo Qianqian, faces full of horror.
If such things came to their country, the losses would be huge.
Luo Qianqian leisurely stuffed the last piece of fried egg into her mouth, gracefully wiped her mouth, and raised her hand to stop everyone’s questions, "Firstly, the Sanctuary destroyed all the aircraft of the rescue countries. Our survival was merely luck, so if the Sanctuary Alliance seeks help, please consider it carefully before deciding."
"And there’s another thing, I’d like a few heads to leave with me. I’ll explain," Luo Qianqian took out Old Master Luo’s ink painting from her pocket, read it through once, and calmly led the people to Fang Enze’s office.
Following Luo Qianqian, Fang Enze helplessly teased, "Are you planning to make us the target of everyone?"
"Hmm, I don’t know what Uncle Deng and Wei Ming said, but you see, I do have a secret, but the more people who know this secret, the more danger I face. If something happens to me, the next time a large-force invasion happens, you won’t be able to stop it," Luo Qianqian leisurely poured everyone a glass of juice, "This list, my grandpa said, were all trusted elders. So, I’m willing to talk."
Hit with a stick, then given a sweet date, Luo Qianqian felt a bit mischievous herself.
Following that, she narrated the affairs of the Cultivation World, leaving this group of elders with an average age already in their sunset years dumbfounded.
Luo Qianqian calmly sipped her juice, not in a hurry.
Yet on the side, Deng Ming suddenly realized, no wonder it felt like different worlds.
"Let me catch my breath... I feel a bit dizzy."
"I feel a bit dizzy too..."
Suddenly, the elderly in the office all sat down, their faces full of disbelief.
Living this long, only now discovering the world wasn’t what they thought, how should they react?
