Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack-Chapter 1296 - 1276: Haan Yun’s Upcoming Wedding

The final result was that the two of them were forcefully carried into the city.

After finding a place to rest, Hua Siye was sent by Old Master Hua to find a suitable courtyard, as they needed to settle down and naturally wouldn’t stay in an inn forever.

Luo Qianqian lay on the bed, shedding tears continuously.

All lies, about facing the world with carefree lives, riding horses while enjoying the splendor of the world! Galloping, my foot, a short ride and it’s as if I’ve over-stretched, legs can’t close, at first glance, you’d think I have bowlegs.

Yan and Huangfu Yihui stood to the side, faces full of helplessness. Just two girls, yet both in the same state, how can anyone help?

"Can you manage?" Huangfu Yihui looked worried, "I’ve asked the attendant to bring hot water, perhaps a soak will make you more comfortable."

Luo Qianqian, with tears streaming down her face, nodded quietly.

"This is medicine, apply it yourself." Yan calmly took out a small metal box and placed it next to Luo Qianqian’s pillow, "Once it’s on, it should feel better. Later on, I’ll find something for circulation and bruising..."

"No need, no need..." Luo Qianqian quickly replied, herbal medicine and such, she was still respectfully cautious! "I have some internal medicine here, don’t worry, just go rest, I can handle it myself."

Slight blush on her face, she must apply the medicine herself, after all. The injured area is quite private, even from a modern perspective!

Once the hot water was prepared and delivered, Yan and Huangfu Yihui left the room.

Luo Qianqian struggled to support herself against the wall, painfully moving to the wooden tub.

Soaking in the warm water, she let out a comfortable moan, then looked at her thigh in distress, large areas of red with even blood seeping out from the abrasion.

Touching it felt sharp, her thin lips pursed into a straight line, slightly curved downwards.

After drying off and donning a comfortable long dress nightgown, Luo Qianqian quietly applied the ointment.

At the moment of application, she felt a cool sensation, and the pain seemed to lessen considerably afterward. After applying it, Luo Qianqian changed into regular clothes. After all... she would rather be cautious about someone barging into her room without warning.

Looking at the sachet around her waist, she sniffed gently. The faint fragrance was quite pleasing; she preferred it to perfume.

She cleaned and dried the clothes, shoes, and socks she had taken off, and then put them away.

She still wasn’t used to wearing the same clothes constantly. This wasn’t a school uniform.

"Shiqi, are you done tidying up?" As she was pondering, the door was knocked, and Luo Qianqian quickly went to open it, seeing Huangfu Yihui standing at the door with a tray of food. He noticed Luo Qianqian’s changed clothes and smiled gently, "I brought you some warm food; done tidying?"

"Yes, come in." Luo Qianqian gently brushed her long hair. Her previous hairstyle was braided by Hua Nianyi; now, with no one to help, she simply let it down, and it blew wildly with the breeze from the window.

"Need some help?" Observing Luo Qianqian casually taking out a string to tie her hair into a low ponytail, Huangfu Yihui smiled, "I’ve learned a bit of this."

"Eh? Why have you learned everything?" Luo Qianqian looked incredulous, a man, and a prince at that, why learn this?

Yet she nodded, "Don’t pull it out, I don’t like those greasy hair oils and creams, they are hard to clean."

Huangfu Yihui smiled silently, seated Luo Qianqian on a chair, his fingers gently gathering her hair, the fragrance with her scent was unlike the others.

He suddenly recalled how Nine Heavens Pavilion seemed to always managed their hair like Luo Qianqian, or let it sway freely with the wind.

His agile fingers wound a few times and soon a simple bun appeared atop Luo Qianqian’s head, secured with a slanted Jade Hairpin, with a few ribbons fluttering in the wind, looking elegantly lively.

"By the way, where have the people gone?" Luo Qianqian, admiring her bun in the mirror, though a little fuzzy, could still see the general shape.

"Yan is in the room, the child is in the room, apart from Hua Nianyi, other Hua Family members are dealing with the settlement affairs, my subordinates are resting, horses are in the stables." Huangfu Yihui seriously answered, the tone almost subtly dissatisfied.

Luo Qianqian replied cluelessly, "What’s up with you?" Why answer so formally?

Watching Luo Qianqian’s shocked look, Huangfu Yihui suddenly chuckled, "It’s nothing, have you contacted your uncle? Don’t let them worry."

"I have contacted him already; my brother even told me not to just fool around and to cultivate more so I won’t be bullied." Luo Qianqian shrugged, looking completely helpless. She sat by the table, looking at the food but having no appetite, yet perhaps from having regurgitated previous food, she was now very hungry. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

"When are you going to Southern Li?" Huangfu Yihui chuckling, sat at the table as well, watching Luo Qianqian eat.

"Huh?" Luo Qianqian dumbly looked at Huangfu Yihui, then remembered this matter, pausing a moment, "Central City won’t be accessible for now, maybe after Second Uncle arrives and the introductions are done we’ll go? I’d still like to bring some Southern Li specialties back for Second Uncle to sell."

"Okay then." Huangfu Yihui nodded lightly.

After Luo Qianqian finished eating, he took his leave.

Leaving the room, his smile vanished, he took out the Jade Pendant in his hand and swiftly returned to his room, "We’ll set off in a month."

Finished, he put away the pendant, leaning against the door, somewhat mystified.

He had always been the most brilliant in the Southern Li Royal Family, but upon venturing out for the first time, he faced setbacks, as the companions met along the way all showed higher talent, challenging his pride.

Yet he sincerely befriended these two.

"I wonder how those people will react if they know the person I’m taking back is the famous Luo Shiqi from the continent?"

Huangfu Yihui mumbled softly.

After just a day of rest, Luo Qianqian almost fully recovered, generously applying the ointment, walking normally again.

In contrast, Hua Nianyi was still unable to get up the next day, looking terribly pale.

Haan Yun couldn’t help but envy Luo Qianqian.

In just three days, Old General Hua used funds to facilitate settlement in Gold Scale City, successfully acquired residence, and purchased a property, a large courtyard with four entrances, aided by Haan Yun requesting Luo Qianqian to contribute funds.

With some renovations, the Hua Family settled in, and Hua Nianyi and Haan Yun’s wedding was planned, awaiting Hua Sicheng and Luo Qianqian’s Second Uncle’s arrival.

Luo Qianqian wasn’t stingy; after all, Haan Yun’s money was given to her, decisively arranging generous dowries for him, also invited a matchmaker for proposal.

The traditional three matchmakers and six betrothals were swiftly completed, one had to admire the efficiency of a lonely man.

Lonely Man·Haan Yun, bustling tirelessly these few days, from decorating to inviting people—only two women around, with one frail and the other? Completely indifferent, wandering aimlessly all day.
