Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 360: Chapter 342: The Donation from Luo Family’s Second Uncle

Seeing that the Qin Family Brothers all took out their ”private money” to help their little sister realize her dream, Luo Qianqian returned to the base with her nose wrinkled, cozying up to her own brothers and the Second Aunt to donate, only to have the Second Uncle’s call come through the next second.

”Second Uncle?” Luo Qianqian answered the phone with a surprised look on her face.

”Qianqian, I heard from your Second Aunt that you need some money?” Second Uncle cut straight to the chase, wasting no time at all.

”Err, err, yeah, you see, NuanNuan, Fourth Brother, and I are planning something...” As soon as Luo Qianqian heard Second Uncle’s voice, she beat her chest in the next second. She was fine with her peers, but when faced with an elder, she abandoned all loyalty and outright sold out Luo Yanran, Second Uncle’s own son.

”That little girl NuanNuan?” The Luo Family’s Second Uncle asked with surprise.

Luo Qianqian kept nodding, then remembered that Second Uncle couldn’t see her, and quickly said, ”Yes, the thing is, this is actually a good deed, but right now, nobody believes it...”

”I had originally planned to give you two million, but let’s make it five million.” The Luo Family’s Second Uncle laughed lightly, ”Are you and NuanNuan coming back home to eat tomorrow?”

”Second Uncle, are you implying that Fourth Brother and I together are worth two million, and NuanNuan alone is worth three million?” Luo Qianqian was amazed at her friend’s high favorability in the Luo Family, but she didn’t forget to act coquettishly.

”Alright, alright, eight million then, I’ll sponsor you personally.” The Luo Family’s Second Uncle laughed heartily over the phone, while Luo Qianqian smiled smugly.

”So, I’m worth more than NuanNuan now. Alright, I’ll bring NuanNuan over for dinner tomorrow.” Luo Qianqian agreed readily.

”To the Second Uncle’s house, don’t you dare go to your grandfather’s house. If he finds out, he’ll beat me up.” Before hanging up, the Luo Family’s Second Uncle didn’t forget to emphasize.

Luo Qianqian agreed repeatedly, hung up the phone, and then called Qin Nuan. She didn’t say anything else, just that she’d accompany her out tomorrow. After all, some questions are better to ask in person.

When Qin Nuan saw Luo Qianqian the next day, dressed extremely formally and even with hair meticulously gelled into place, she was utterly dumbfounded: ”What on earth are you doing?”

”Hehe, right, let me talk business first, then personal affairs.” Luo Qianqian put on a serious face, ”Have you used the money you got from your two brothers last time?”

”Not yet,” Qin Nuan shook her head.

”Good, now let’s draft a donation agreement. Later, we’ll print two copies for your brothers to sign.” Luo Qianqian’s mouth curved into a smile, ”And bring one for my Second Uncle as well.”

Qin Nuan’s eyes widened in shock: ”No way, your Second Uncle also donated money?”

Luo Qianqian nodded, then her scrutinizing gaze began to unsettle Qin Nuan, who covered her chest nervously and asked, ”Why are you looking at me like that?”

”Just wondering why Second Uncle favors you more than his own son. Thanks to you, we got an extra three million from him,” Luo Qianqian whispered smugly.

Qin Nuan’s eyes widened in disbelief: ”That much???”

”So this is my personal matter. Exactly why does my Second Uncle think so highly of you? Is he considering taking you as a daughter-in-law or what?” Luo Qianqian grinned maliciously as she took out her phone, ”I’ve contacted a Gold Card lawyer from the most famous law firm nearby, and he’s coming over to help us draft the agreement.”

”Your Second Uncle thinks highly of me?” Qin Nuan frowned, and after a moment of reflection, she lightened up, ”Oh, it must be because before the financial crisis, I added fuel to the fire, making your family also withdraw funds from the stock market, right? The recovery must have been more than just that bit.” Qin Nuan’s eyes sparkled with laughter, ”Shouldn’t you be thanking me then?”

Luo Qianqian was taken aback for a moment, remembering there indeed was such an incident, but since it wasn’t really related to her, she hadn’t paid much attention to it. Now remembering this, she broke out into a cold sweat, ”Thank you.” Her gaze towards Qin Nuan couldn’t have been more sincere.

Qin Nuan touched her arm, muttering softly, ”Why does it sound so disgusting when you say thank you.”

”But it’s also thanks to your Second Uncle for trusting me, otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to do anything,” Qin Nuan said with a light laugh.

Luo Qianqian nodded and, looking at the person entering the door, raised her eyebrows, ”Why has your Second Brother come?”

Qin Nuan turned, and with some hesitation, she asked, ”The firm you found, it’s not Wanyan Law Firm, is it?”

”Yeah, that’s the one with the best reviews online.” Luo Qianqian nodded as if it were only natural and then saw Qin Nuan stand up, waving towards Qin Wen: ”Second Brother, over here.”

With her mouth agape, Luo Qianqian watched the impeccably dressed Qin Wen holding the contract template she had mentioned, struggling to maintain her smile. Could someone tell her why Qin Wen’s online alias wasn’t Qin Wen but Wan Qin?

Qin Wen looked at their differing expressions and raised an eyebrow: ”Yo, what a coincidence meeting you two here.”

Qin Nuan pointed at Luo Qianqian and slowly began, ”So this is the big business deal you spent all of last night researching?” Then she turned to Luo Qianqian, ”You little spendthrift, how much did you give him?”

Luo Qianqian didn’t dare look up: ”Two thousand...”

”Dinner is on you!!!” Seeing Qin Wen’s gentle smile, Qin Nuan could only think of one description, a wolf in sheep’s clothing.

Qin Wen looked at Luo Qianqian, his brow slightly furrowed: ”What are you trying to do exactly, needing to list so many terms?”

”It’s for disaster relief,” Qin Nuan didn’t avoid the question, since Qin Wen had already helped, there was no need to conceal anything.

”You mean that dream of yours?” Qin Wen shook his head in amusement and then looked at the two of them: ”It’s fine if you make a fuss within the family, but don’t take this outside, got it?”

Luo Qianqian nodded again and again. To her, Qin Wen was much scarier than Qin Liang. One was an iceberg, and the other, a smiling tiger with hidden claws.

With the printed contract in hand, Luo Qianqian was on the verge of tears. Why did she receive a questioning call from the eldest brother of the Qin Family as soon as the Second Brother left? What kind of outrageous thing had she and Qin Nuan done?

However, after uttering a few words, it was also a warning to them, limited to the family’s knowledge, before hanging up.

The two exchanged looks: ”Seems like they believe us.”

Qin Nuan nodded: ”It looks like the stock market incident has made them respect me more.”

”You’re not saying this was a dream too, are you?” Luo Qianqian rolled her eyes.

Qin Nuan shook her head with a mysterious expression: ”I told them you consulted the stars at night.”

”Get lost, as if I’d believe you,” Luo Qianqian rolled her eyes.

Once they arrived at Luo Family’s Second Uncle’s house and saw Luo Yanran already seated, they were surprised. Before the two could speak, Luo Yanran pointed at Qin Nuan in anger and questioned, ”When I eat instant noodles normally, you don’t give me money, and now you come to my house to eat without even telling me!!!”

Luo Qianqian touched her nose awkwardly, set down the parcel, and slipped into the kitchen: ”Second Aunt, what delicious food are you cooking?” Jia Ning was about to add something to the pot and hurriedly shooed Luo Qianqian out: ”Go on, go out and play, don’t get choked by the fumes.”

Luo Qianqian emerged innocently from the kitchen and saw Luo Xihan on the side beckoning her: ”Second Uncle.” Luo Qianqian walked over with a sweet smile, sticking out her tongue at the arguing Qin Nuan and Luo Yanran: ”Let’s go to the study.”

Luo Xihan nodded his head and didn’t comment on the bag Luo Qianqian was carrying.

In the study, Luo Xihan directly handed the check to Luo Qianqian, but she shook her head: ”Second Uncle, although it’s personal aid from you, I hope you’ll first look at the agreement, considering the large amount.”

Luo Xihan burst into laughter: ”Qianqian, are you kidding me? You three must have brought all of your money, right?”

Luo Qianqian shook her head seriously: ”Not me, most of my money is with someone else, in case anything happens to me, I’ve left it for my mom.”

Luo Xihan was stunned.
