Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack-Chapter 1345 - 1325: Visiting Old Friends (Part 1)

Early the next morning, Luo Qianqian ran to Mo Jiyan to ask for some things, and Mo generously gave her some for self-defense.

She then turned and went into the room of the two Princes, chuckling as she exchanged some delicious food for local specialties. Luckily, they had a lot of random stuff, not all expensive.

The stuff Luo Qianqian had was even more diverse. Apart from the talisman paper which she could use, everything else served as start-up capital for the Revival Talisman Device – how could she casually use them?

However, fortunately, there were still some things given earlier to Luo Xinyue, which she generously ’borrowed.’ Anyway, her dad would bring even better items later.

Seeing off this group to the car for their outing, Luo Qianqian took a deep breath and hailed a cab to that familiar place.

She arrived at the courtyard smoothly, unsurprisingly blocked at the entrance, but she didn’t mind at all, obediently filling out the visitor log and explaining whom she was visiting, letting the guards confirm the contact by phone.

"...Is the Commander in? There’s a girl named Luo Qianqian here to visit... what? Hello, hello, hello?"

The guard stared at the phone, perplexed by the beeping tone. What was going on?

But before he could figure it out, a green figure dashed out from the courtyard, leaving him dumbstruck.

"Qhianqhian? Luo Qianqian? Is it really Luo Qianqian?" The familiar person strode quickly and stopped steadily in front of Luo Qianqian, grabbing her shoulders tightly with an expression full of excitement.

"Brother Sui, why are you running so fast? Is there a mission?" Luo Qianqian was stunned for a moment, then quickly smiled, showing her little tiger teeth, as she displayed the pile of plain bags in her hands: "I’m here to bribe Elder Deng."

"Little heartless, haven’t come for so long, let’s go." Xiao Sui, Elder Deng’s duty soldier, also looked excited. Hearing Elder Deng’s complaints daily made him somewhat dissatisfied, but seeing the little girl standing charmingly in front of him, was there any dissatisfaction left?

He took the bags from Luo Qianqian’s hands, his face turning a bit peculiar...

His face flushed several shades of red, leaving the guards utterly surprised.

What was this girl’s identity? To have Commander Deng’s duty soldier, General Sui, personally meet her? And even get flustered?

Luo Qianqian quickly grabbed a few bags, chuckling, "Being received by Brother Sui is already a huge honor. How could I tire Brother Sui like this? Let’s go?"

"Alright..." General Sui looked at Luo Qianqian with a few more degrees of amazement.

Just reaching the door, she heard Elder Deng’s booming voice: "Xiao Sui, that rascal, where did he run off to now? Yelling and then disappearing, thinks he’s a dog?"

Luo Qianqian stifled a laugh, while General Sui’s face turned red. Was it his fault? In his excitement, he forgot to greet the old man busy in the study...

"Elder Deng, having such a big temper isn’t good. Brother Sui came to pick me up and still got scolded by you. The gifts I brought for you should all go to Brother Sui then." Luo Qianqian held back her laughter as she shouted out.

"Strange..." Elder Deng perked up his ears, with a peculiar expression: "I seem to hear little heartless... little heartless!"

Seeing Luo Qianqian, Elder Deng exclaimed, his movements agile as he appeared in front of Luo Qianqian, looking her over: "You really came, little heartless?"

But in the next second, he turned away with a stern face: "Why did you come?"

Oh, this tsundere old man.

Luo Qianqian smiled at the old man’s back, leisurely saying: "I came to see my beautiful Grandma Deng, and later I’ll also visit Elder Wei and Elder Xiu."

Elder Deng’s eyes widened with anger, turning around again: "Not here to see me, huh? Xiao Sui, throw her out of the courtyard. If you let her in, you’re dead!"

"Old child, humph, the gifts aren’t for you." Luo Qianqian turned to leave without hesitation.

General Sui stood by, silently amused, rarely seeing the old chief so spirited. Besides, Luo Qianqian’s items were in his hands, why would she go? Obviously teasing the old man.

"You! You! You, stop right there!" Elder Deng grabbed her, dragging her into the house: "Been so long since you visited, did you forget us old folks like we were stuck in the duodenum?"

"Don’t say that, even if I forgot, it’s only in the appendix." Luo Qianqian spoke leisurely, glancing around: "Where’s Grandma Deng?"

"Shopping for groceries, recently obsessed with DIY face masks, totally unreasonable, her face is always red, green, blue, black, looking like a female ghost." Elder Deng huffed: "What gifts did you bring?" His eyes swept over the pile of bags on the floor, nodding with satisfaction, glad the girl hadn’t forgotten them.

"A lot." Luo Qianqian rolled her eyes: "Want a Lifespan Extension Pill?"

"Xiao Sui, call Old Man Xiu, have him bring... no need, the two grannies should be back soon; let him come over himself and order some dishes. Little heartless, tell Brother Sui yourself what you want to eat." Elder Deng rolled his eyes, clearly not taking Luo Qianqian’s words seriously.

Luo Qianqian chuckled, not rejecting the old man’s kindness: "Brother Sui, see how little heartless Elder Deng is; I brought so much just to eat Grandma Deng’s longevity noodles..."

"Who’s the old heartless one?"

"I am little heartless, aren’t you the old heartless?"

Longevity... noodles? Elder Deng instinctively glanced at the calendar on the table and then widened his eyes: "You little heartless, came just to mooch a meal! Xiao Sui, order a cake and have some ingredients delivered."

"Got it." General Sui put down what he was carrying and dashed off.

Elder Deng gave Luo Qianqian a sidelong glance, pursing his lips: "Go ahead, what’s your business with this old man? You little girl are never without an agenda."

"Hehehe, just a little matter, not urgent, a piece of cake for you." Luo Qianqian picked up a bag from the floor: "Try this, it’s good for your current state." Luo Qianqian took out a completely white fruit from the bag, which didn’t smell, looking like a winter date but evidently glossier.

"What’s wrong with me now? What’s this thing?" Elder Deng looked at the fruit up and down, proclaiming that he was a well-informed elderly, but had to admit he didn’t recognize this thing.

"Just try it, but I’d suggest you eat it outside..." Luo Qianqian casually held a fruit and walked into the yard, in front of Elder Deng, eating it: "Just chew and swallow it."

Elder Deng stood in the yard suspiciously but without doubt, tossing it into his mouth and eating it: "What is this thing? So sour... uh..."

Elder Deng clutched his stomach with a peculiar expression, while Luo Qianqian chuckled and went into the house: "Suit yourself, sir."
