Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 571: Chapter 551: Crisis!

Both of them stepped forward directly, protecting Luo Qianqian and Luo Yanran, who was guarding Luo Qianqian, behind them. Elvis looked as usual, with a faint smile on his face, ”Yo, being fat is indeed an asset, might as well use a cone next time.”

Luo Qianqian was speechless, looking at the two men in front of her. She had never found Elvis so imposing before, nor had she ever seen Xi Ming this calm, giving Luo Qianqian a sense of great dependability.

Luo Qianqian smiled and said, ”The Luo Family doesn’t have cowards, Fourth Brother, and sisters-in-law, you must all protect yourselves well.” With that, she pushed Luo Yanran in front of Cong Rong and Qin Nuan, held the Silver Needle in a fan shape in her hand, and went behind Elvis and Xi Ming, ”I won’t hold you back. Don’t worry about me; I can protect myself.” Her face was full of confidence.

Xi Ming reached out to pat her head, ”Little kid, go play on the side; leave this to the adults.” Then he pushed her to the other side and directly blocked the butler’s path, showing his little tiger teeth and tucking his sideburns behind his ear, ”I haven’t really gotten into a fight in a long time.”

Luo Qianqian was at a loss for words. You, an adult? At most, you’re just grown-up, right?

But seeing Han Chen across from her, Luo Qianqian still protected the direction of the three of them, Yanran included, standing her ground firmly against Han Chen.

”Hey, hey, hey, how can you guys get along pleasantly like this?” Han Chen wasn’t at all surprised to see the butler regain consciousness, just looking at Luo Qianqian, ”As long as you stay here, I promise you won’t be in any danger.”

”Danger my butt, you’re the one in danger!” retorted Luo Qianqian as she flung off her cape onto the couch beside her, revealing the T-shirt and shorts underneath that made it easier for her to move.

”I have no intention of making enemies with you,” Han Chen said with a bitter smile, ”I’ve wanted to talk to you from the start, but Elvis has been obstructing me. Please believe me, as long as you stay here, there won’t be any problem.”

”Believe you, my butt!” Elvis directly made a move on the butler, Xi Ming did not hesitate and quickly attacked the butler from another direction, aiming low. Elvis, on the other hand, kept his attacks on the upper body, his punches targeting the face.

Yet, even with a two-on-one assault, the butler managed with ease, defending against one with one hand, showing no signs of difficulty.

Xi Ming frowned slightly, and the next moment, with a leaping spin kick, he struck the butler’s face and sent his glasses flying, finally drawing blood from the butler.

”Qianqian!” Without any hesitation, Han Lei immediately moved closer to Luo Qianqian, but he forgot that even Xi Ming and Elvis were engaging that person, and Qianqian was watching that side, there was still someone always watching Luo Qianqian.

Luo Qianqian was startled by Luo Yanran’s voice, then before she could turn around, she saw the shadow on the ground move, and instinctively ducked down into a forward roll, then got up holding the Silver Needle, squinting her eyes, ”I never counted on you being a gentleman, but sneak attacks from behind are just wrong.”

Qin Nuan, on one side, was anxiously stamping her foot but felt helpless, only watching anxiously as Luo Qianqian narrowly dodged, not daring to make a sound for fear of disturbing her.

Cong Rong, like Qin Nuan, dared not make a sound, only holding her mouth tightly shut.

”Do you believe me when I say I didn’t mean to do anything?” Han Chen just tugged at the corner of his mouth, shrugged his shoulders, and gestured that his hands were empty.

But Luo Qianqian didn’t relax her vigilance at all, staring intently at Han Chen, then suddenly heard Elvis’s voice, ”Duck down!”

Without a moment’s hesitation, Luo Qianqian ducked without turning her head, then felt a whoosh of air over her head, followed by a crack as a cup with liquid inside smashed against the wall. Turning back, she saw the butler retracting his leg, continuing to spar with the two men.

”What the hell!” Luo Qianqian glared at the broken cup in pieces, fury burning in her eyes, ”Couldn’t you smash something else? There were still drinks in it; it’s such a pain to clean up!”

Actually, what she wanted to say was that it would be bad if someone was scalded by the liquid inside, but then she thought about it, it seemed that they were intending to beat her anyway, so getting scalded probably wasn’t wrong in their eyes...

”Mentally challenged...” Luo Yanran was speechless, was this really the problem she should be considering?

”You’re the one who’s mentally challenged!” Luo Qianqian rolled forward on the ground and, taking advantage of Han Lei’s delayed reaction, stood up behind him. She jabbed a Silver Needle into his acupoint, followed by the sleep acupoint - afraid one needle wouldn’t do the job, she forcefully drove two needles into one spot.

Han Chen watched Luo Qianqian, disbelieving, then his face was full of helplessness, and the next second, he closed his eyes and collapsed on the ground.

Seeing this, Luo Yanran hurriedly grabbed the cloak that Luo Qianqian had thrown on the sofa, twisted it into a rope, and tied Han Chen’s arms and legs behind his back tightly. Luo Qianqian then withdrew the Silver Needles and stepped on Han Chen’s body: ”You shameless bastard, thinking of imprisoning me? Maybe in your next life!”

Elvis and Xi Ming, seeing that Luo Qianqian had taken care of things on her end, breathed a sigh of relief. At least they didn’t have to worry about Luo Qianqian being ambushed anymore. They stared sternly at the butler, but something seemed off—why did he smile when he saw Han Chen faint?

Xi Ming directly said to the four behind him, ”Be careful, something’s not right.”

Luo Qianqian quickly arranged the handful of Silver Needles into a fan shape, standing in front of Luo Yanran and the others, intently watching Han Chen lying on the ground.

Then they heard a ’bang,’ and when they turned around, they saw Elvis had been kicked into the wall, blood seeping from the corner of his mouth. The painting on the wall couldn’t withstand the impact and shook a few times before falling to the floor with a loud noise.

Luo Qianqian watched the butler retract his foot and flash a provocative smile at her, beckoning with his finger, ”Come here, you little brat.”

”Qianqian.” Luo Yanran immediately grabbed hold of Luo Qianqian, stopping her from advancing, Luo Qianqian turned around and shook her head; she wasn’t that impulsive.

”Old codger, do you have a screw loose in your head? Elvis is hurt, and we will retain the right to sue you,” Luo Qianqian didn’t show any intention of stepping forward, which relieved Xi Ming. He hurriedly went to check on Elvis, then his expression darkened.

”Elvis’s ribs might be broken,” Xi Ming looked toward Luo Qianqian.

Elvis twitched the corner of his mouth, ”Not that fragile, don’t scare the kid,” then he forced a smile at Luo Qianqian, ”I’m fine.”

Luo Qianqian knew that Elvis was only trying to comfort her and she understood that now was not the time to be impulsive. But frustratingly, she was powerless to do anything about Elvis’s injuries.

This wasn’t a martial arts drama where one could fly off without a scratch. Seeing the fresh blood at the corner of Elvis’s mouth, she knew that the injury wasn’t something minor like bleeding gums.

”Sue, haha, you little brat, do you think you can even get out of here?” said the butler, clapping his hands, a face full of smugness.

The next second, the faces of everyone in the room turned pale all at once.
