Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack-Chapter 1216 - 1196: The Star Path Is Right Before Us

Chapter 1216: Chapter 1196: The Star Path Is Right Before Us

When they saw the road paved with black stones before them, everyone had a certain feeling: this must be the Star Path!

Under the sunlight, the black stones sparkled faintly, shining among the shade of the surrounding forest, like the most beautiful gem-laid path.

"This is the Star Path?" Qhianqhian blinked her big eyes, full of wonder.

The long black road stretched ahead, its length unknown, but the reflected light seemed like a wall of light, separating the Star Path from its surroundings, showcasing its own brilliance under the sun.

Everyone intended to cross the wall of light to step onto the Star Path, but Nine Serenities stopped them.

"Only by walking onto the Star Path accompanied by the starry sky from the entrance is it truly the Star Path," Nine Serenities said.

Although puzzled, everyone, considering Nine Serenities’s role in recent days, silently closed their mouths.

Qhianqhian nodded: "Then let’s wait for the night, but this entrance..."

A straight road naturally has one end as the entrance and another as the exit; walking the wrong way would be a total waste of time, wouldn’t it?

"In that direction." Just pointed out a direction.

"Right, let’s go then." Qhianqhian looked at the others and nodded gently, while secretly passing a piece of chocolate into Nine Serenities’s palm and winked at her.

Recently, Nine Serenities was often secretly fed snacks by Qhianqhian, for that Haan Yun was quite a fuss; as soon as he discovered it, he would grumble for ages.

Though knowing he’s a prince, Yan was still left speechless; never seen a prince wrestle a patient for food!

Is it that the Royal Family starves you, or denies you drink? How could you behave like you’ve never seen the world?

Yet, even so, he had to admit that the snacks Qhianqhian took out were unmatched by most!

So every time Haan Yun grumbled dissatisfied and quelled, he would join in the excitement.

"Sister." Suddenly Nine Serenities looked at Qhianqhian, a trace of determination flashed through her eyes.

"What?" Qhianqhian watched Nine Serenities’s youthful face gaining color, quite reassuring, the days hadn’t been feeding her in vain; it’s a very fulfilling undertaking, though not as exaggerated as at home when she was injured.

However, during these days, Nine Serenities indeed ate the best among the group, unquestionably.

"In these days, I’ve observed carefully; among the people around Sister, isn’t Brother Huang the best-looking?" Nine Serenities asked Qhianqhian, seeking confirmation earnestly.

Qhianqhian glanced at those around her, didn’t quite feel Huangfu Yihui was the best-looking, yet he certainly wasn’t the least attractive.

Why Brother Huang? Well, just like Qhianqhian took Luo Shiqi as her alias, Huangfu Yihui was seen by Nine Serenities as Big Brother Huang Yihui.

"Sort of, what’s up? Nine Serenities likes Brother Huang? Want to get married?" As she noticed Yan’s amused gaze sweeping past, Qhianqhian wrinkled her nose and made a funny face at him.

"I don’t like those who look dignified, nor do I like Brother Yan’s feigned seriousness. As for White-haired Brother, I dislike him because he’s too greedy; I like Brother Tang best, sounds sweet like Sugar Brother." Nine Serenities’s eyes glistened: "But Sister has the best relationship with Brother Tang, right?"

"Yes." Qhianqhian laughed slightly, looking at Tang Tianyi in front of her, his figure apparently tensed after hearing their words.

"Could Sister not like him?" Nine Serenities’s words successfully halted their progress, Qhianqhian stared wide-eyed in surprise.

"Sister, look, Brother Huang is also good-looking; don’t they seem a great match with Sister?" Nine Serenities continued seriously.

Qhianqhian waved her hands repeatedly: "But..."

"Is that so?" Huangfu Yihui chuckled slightly from behind the two: "So Nine Serenities doesn’t fancy me, but prefers your Brother Tang?"

"Brother Huang is great too, but Brother Tang can make delicious food." Nine Serenities blinked solemnly: "So Sister can’t like Brother Tang, or Nine Serenities will be very sad."

Qhianqhian burst into laughter; such an adorably fond liking.

Tang Tianyi helplessly watched Qhianqhian, was she agreeing?

To everyone’s surprise, Qhianqhian giggled: "That’s not possible, even for Nine Serenities, Sister won’t relent; Sister likes someone who can cook too."

Indeed, Qhianqhian being a menace in the kitchen was well-known among her relatives.

"Then... Brother Huang, could you learn to cook?" Nine Serenities pouted, then, inspired, turned towards Huangfu Yihui.

"Oh? Changing your heart now, Nine Serenities?" Huangfu Yihui laughed heartily.

Children’s world seems innocent, just liking the ones who offer treats?

Nine Serenities shook her head earnestly: "Learn to cook then marry Sister home, so no one can take Brother Tang from me."

Huangfu Yihui’s cheek twitched slightly, then helplessly looked at Qhianqhian: "Shiqi, you’ve been sold."

"No way, I rescued you, shouldn’t you consider me first?" Yan protested, a bit disgruntled by being ignored.

"Because... with Brother Huang, Sister seems happy; Brother Huang feels gentle, while Brother Yan seems a bit..." Nine Serenities gazed earnestly at Yan.

Yan wished he could set the little girl ablaze, what kind of talk was this? Could she speak better?

He’s great, handsome, wealthy, and capable.

Tang Tianyi stood with black lines across his forehead; won’t anyone seek his consent?

No, no one would.

"Nine Serenities, why must it be Brother Tang?" Qhianqhian couldn’t believe how appealing Tang Tianyi seemed, secretly chuckling yet feeling a tad jealous, side-glancing at Tang Tianyi before turning to Nine Serenities: "Didn’t you say Brother Huang is the most handsome?"

"But he obviously doesn’t know how to make these delicious treats." Nine Serenities asserted righteously: "Furthermore, Sister is so pretty, naturally Brother Huang should be reserved for her."

"But why do I feel you two are disdaining me?" Huangfu Yihui drew out a folding fan, walked up to the two, tilted Nine Serenities’s chin left and right, then appraised Qhianqhian up and down, nodding lightly: "Alright, I’ll accept both, you better cook good food for me at home."

Qhianqhian laughed aloud, understanding they were teasing Nine Serenities, yet remarked seriously: "That’s how it is? Nine Serenities, you’re not getting your Brother Tang now."

"But Sister isn’t getting him either." Nine Serenities batted Huangfu Yihui’s fan away, turned earnestly towards Qhianqhian: "Besides, being with Sister is great."

"So Nine Serenities’s favorite is me?" Qhianqhian laughed hearing this.

Nine Serenities grasped Qhianqhian’s hand, nodding repeatedly: "Yes, yes, if I were a boy, I’d definitely marry Sister."

"Too bad you’re not, or Sister would surely marry you."

As someone who’d changed Nine Serenities’s clothing, Qhianqhian knew Nine Serenities’s gender all too well.
