Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack
Chapter 1474 - 1454: The Bald Little Nun
"Qhianqhian?" Luo Shufan looked at Luo Qianqian in surprise as she opened her eyes and hugged her tightly, "It’s okay, it’s okay."
"Bro, it hurts, be gentle." Luo Qianqian grimaced, feeling like her body was battered and bruised.
"Oh, oh, oh..." Luo Shufan quickly and carefully embraced Luo Qianqian, his face filled with heartache, "Why didn’t you dodge a bit? How much milk will it take for you to get back to your color... You’re so charred you’re almost smoking, and covered in scabs, it looks so gruesome, but I can’t bring myself to say anything."
"Bro, it’s okay." Luo Qianqian noticed Luo Shufan’s distress and silently glared at a point in the sky, "See, my brother is upset, I need compensation for mental distress!"
Luo Shufan tenderly dressed Luo Qianqian in a layer of clothing. If not for Luo Qianqian insisting on walking herself, he would still be carrying her...
Yan watched as Luo Shufan calmed down before he finally sighed in relief. Initially, he was quite upset with Luo Qianqian for bringing Luo Shufan along. However, seeing this now, it turned out to be a good decision. If not, the situation would have been very awkward.
None of them could easily help Luo Qianqian get dressed, and even though looking at her in this state should evoke no impure thoughts, dealing with a normal Luo Qianqian would just be impossible for them.
"Here." He handed the ointment to Luo Qianqian, his face showing a hint of embarrassment. He didn’t dare to look directly at Luo Qianqian’s scabbed skin. Even her face had no unscathed parts; she looked like a walking mass of scabs.
Under a mummy’s bandages, it might not look this bad. Luo Qianqian felt quite embarrassed herself, and after thanking him upon receiving the ointment, she didn’t know what else to say.
Yan was even more perplexed about what to say, fearing the little girl might become distraught over her appearance.
So, even Luo Shufan watched Luo Qianqian with great caution.
"Why are you all staring at me? I’ll have to wait for these scabs to fall off before applying the ointment, right?" Luo Qianqian noticed the gazes, her expression shifting to one of slight exasperation as she glanced at Luo Shufan, "Also, bro, stop giving me that look. I won’t get upset over this." She reached up to touch her bald head, feeling the uneven scabs, and sighed, "Hurry up and contact Second Uncle and Dad to get me a wig or hair growth solutions. And stop taking pictures of me."
Looking at the camera in Luo Shufan’s hands, Luo Qianqian felt a black line appear on her forehead. When did this thing appear? How did she not notice her brother brought this out?
"Wigs are bad, covering up is bad for the wounds. If it really bothers you, I’ll shave mine too." Luo Shufan quickly put the camera away and shook his head, facing Luo Qianqian earnestly. His hair too was just recently grown, reaching barely past his cheeks, so he wouldn’t mind shaving it off either.
However, he understood now why girls need to mentally prepare before cutting their hair. After growing it for so long, it would indeed be quite saddening.
"There’s no need, as long as you all aren’t too bothered by it." Luo Qianqian shrugged. She knew clearly that she wasn’t permanently bald; it was just temporary.
Besides, even if she ended up bald, there was still Yan.
Thinking this, she turned to Yan, "Yan, I..."
"I’ll give it a try." Before she could finish, Yan nodded, clearly aware of what Luo Qianqian was about to say.
Luo Qianqian sighed in relief, patting Luo Shufan’s shoulder, "See, nothing to worry about. Maybe this will even make my eyelashes grow longer."
Luo Shufan was speechless seeing Luo Qianqian’s smug look. This child was utterly maddening; does she think he’s worried about those few hairs? He’s worried about her health, no?
"Let’s go, that Xiao Bai over there, follow us, we’re going to find your grandpa for compensation," Luo Qianqian said, looking at the cowering Little White Snake, rolling her eyes repeatedly. With such a little courage, it dared to be her protector during the Heavenly Tribulation?
The Little White Snake quickly followed, but still kept its distance from Luo Qianqian. In its current state, claiming she had a bit of charred fragrance, she looked delicious as if she were cooked...
She no longer resembled the pretty lady from before.
"What’s going on? What compensation?" Luo Shufan caught onto the key point with a puzzled look at Luo Qianqian, then glanced at the sky in confusion, "Is this snake raised by an eagle? Or a cloud?"
After all, he’s used to tigers breathing fire, but Luo Qianqian suddenly being struck by lightning scared him. He was at a loss about who to demand compensation from.
He thought he’d never dare to swear lightly in his life, because it really does bring lightning strikes!
Don’t believe it? Look, with pictures to prove it, she wouldn’t look like this if not struck by lightning, right?
"It’s a long story. Anyway, I’m refusing any treatment now, I want compensation, oh, and let’s find our mission location and finish it all at once." Luo Qianqian angrily looked at the smirking face in the sky. Although she didn’t know why she could still see him after he became his true form, it was clear that only she could.
Yet, it was apparent that the other party didn’t take her threats seriously, clearly believing Luo Qianqian couldn’t cause him any harm.
"This child, has she gone silly?" Luo Shufan shook his head repeatedly with a face full of disbelief, staring at Luo Qianqian while stretching out a hand to feel her forehead, relieved to find she didn’t have a fever.
But speaking nonsense even without a fever? Refusing treatment? Is she trying to give up a hospital bed?
And finishing all at once, even the level three nearly did them in, now wanting to take a spin upstairs? It’s... suicidal.
"We have connections up there." Luo Qianqian puffed immaturely with a wealthy arrogance, like a pig not scared of boiling water, causing Luo Shufan to frown as he looked up. Don’t tell him it’s that old eagle from before.
"Bro, can you stop being so naive?" Luo Qianqian couldn’t help but wince again from the pain.
Covered in injuries, surviving was a stroke of luck; it’s all that elder’s fault...
But thinking about the elder being a beast, she shivered at the thought—a dragon... Seemingly with scales like a snake, all cold-blooded and slick...
"What’s wrong? Are you cold?" Seeing Luo Qianqian shiver, Luo Shufan promptly asked with concern.
Knowing that after the series of Robbery Thunder, except for the ring and the necklace on her neck, nothing else on Luo Qianqian’s body remained unscathed, even her skin was not spared.
