Chapter 870: Chapter 850: Forgiveness
"This ointment is quite nice, huh?" Qin Nuan gently rubbed the ointment with her fingertip and nodded with admiration. "It’s refreshing, not greasy, and easy to spread without caking. If this were a cosmetic, I’d definitely buy it."
"Speaking of which, my senior brother also has a lot of great cosmetics. I’ll ask for some next time," Luo Qianqian chuckled.
Qin Nuan was left speechless: "Yes, yes, your senior brother is so nice." Her face full of a perfunctory look. Then she laughed, "But the scenery here is really nice, it would be a great place to shoot some costume photos."
Luo Qianqian was taken aback, then she laughed too, but hesitated for a moment, "I feel like you better not come if you want to shoot, it always feels like the kids here are too scary."
"Why would I shoot something like that? I’m not Shiba..." Qin Nuan sighed, her face full of grievance. "Speaking of which, I didn’t even bathe yesterday."
"Because you ate too much," Luo Qianqian was startled on her face and said.
Her face still carried a bit of a mischievous smile.
Qin Nuan rolled her eyes impatiently: "Do you have the nerve to say that? Weren’t you the one who ate too much? I was afraid you’d fall forever asleep because of it... Eh? I suddenly remembered something."
"What?" Seeing the seriousness on Qin Nuan’s face, Luo Qianqian also seemed a bit skeptical.
"You ate so much yesterday, how come you still haven’t gone to the bathroom? Are you constipated?"
Seeing Qin Nuan’s serious manner, Luo Qianqian found herself unable to get angry, her face full of exasperation as she looked at her.
The old man laughed heartily and turned back into smoke, disappearing into the backpack.
Luo Qianqian was just about to say something when her stomach began to gurgle. Frowning, she put on her shoes and rushed straight to the bathroom.
Listening to the sound of Luo Qianqian closing the bathroom door, Qin Nuan burst out laughing: "I told you, how could you not go."
Pinching her nose to endure the smell, Luo Qianqian said to Qin Nuan, "Can you fetch me some bathwater? I feel awful..."
Qin Nuan was left speechless, turned around, and went out the door, only to find a young woman standing guard at the main entrance.
"Is there anything you need?" The woman quickly said upon seeing Qin Nuan come out, "I am Diwu Yan, sent by Young Master Yan to take care of you ladies. Going out is not suggested today, but feel free to ask for anything you need, I am more than willing to assist."
Qin Nuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes, I need some hot water for a bath."
The woman nodded slightly and turned to leave.
She didn’t hinder Qin Nuan at all.
But since Qin Nuan had accomplished her aim, she returned to her room.
Luo Qianqian was still in the bathroom.
"Are you okay?" Hearing Luo Qianqian’s slightly pained voice, Qin Nuan furrowed her brow slightly.
Luo Qianqian yelled angrily, "I’m only scared of one thing right now!"
"What?"
"The toilet is blocked!" Luo Qianqian said with a heavy heart, her voice filled with embarrassment and annoyance.
Qin Nuan burst into laughter again, but then covered her mouth: "It’s okay, it’s okay, don’t worry."
Who knows how long passed, the hot water was completely poured, and only then did Luo Qianqian come out.
Once she came out, Qin Nuan was quick to cover her nose, a look of shock on her face: "Did you eat poo?"
Why do you smell so strong???
"Why wouldn’t you say I soiled my pants or fell into the toilet? You’re the poo eater!" Luo Qianqian moved with feeble steps, her legs were so numb they restricted her movement.
Qin Nuan shifted her gaze; your clothes do seem quite clean.
Luo Qianqian didn’t hesitate, after her legs returned to normal, she got into the bath tub, submerging her head in the water, a look of enjoyment on her face.
Though there were no petals in the water, it carried a faint fragrance.
After bathing, Luo Qianqian came out and asked someone to change the water, allowing Qin Nuan to also take a bath.
She changed her clothes and tossed the one with the ’smell’ to the side, planning to wash it during her evening hygiene routine.
After Qin Nuan also showered, as she was drying her hair, Diwu Yan knocked on the door.
"Come in," Luo Qianqian said with surprise.
Seeing both of them drying their hair, Diwu Yan was also momentarily stunned, fortunately not rashly intruding...
Fortunately, he came quite late...
"What’s up?" Luo Qianqian had already returned to her normal self, with no defense on her face.
Diwu Yan nodded, "Hmm, how do you want to handle those three?"
"Those three are good friends, right?" Out of nowhere, Luo Qianqian asked this.
Diwu Yan paused for a moment before nodding, "Yes."
"To put on such a big show for a kid like me, they really went to great lengths." Luo Qianqian smiled lightly, looking at the comb in her hand, "Give them a chance, I reckon I won’t run into them in the future anyway." She realized early on that someone was outside the door.
"But more than that, I’m curious, what could have prompted them to target me? They’re just children, aren’t they?" Luo Qianqian’s face was full of curiosity.
Diwu Yan was silent for a moment, "Yes, the Lifespan Extension Pill, they wanted it as a gift for Ah Lan’s birthday coming up."
"Truly filial children, but they love their elders, and I have elders who love me. Whatever it is, it shouldn’t be done on the premise of harming others." Luo Qianqian curved her lips, "Consider it a gift for Grandma Lan. I forgive them, just like Grandma Lan said, it’s not as if anything happened to me."
Diwu Yan was stunned. Although he also wanted to plead for the three children, he found himself unable to say anything, forced by his sister’s tears. Unexpectedly, Luo Qianqian had already compassionately resolved the situation.
"Then..."
"The mastermind, right? No worries, I’ll handle him myself, I’ve always had to face him in an inevitable battle anyway! It’s either you die or I live."
Diwu Yan was silent, nodding, "As a token of recompense, for whatever I can help with, just say the word."
Luo Qianqian was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Can I say it now?"
Diwu Yan was momentarily dazed, then nodded.
"I want, the Stay-Young Elixir, a number of them." Luo Qianqian’s face was full of joy, she began ticking her fingers, six sisters-in-law, six brothers, mom, two aunts, two aunts by marriage, godmother, grandma, so many.
Diwu Yan twitched a corner of his mouth, "Five at most, no more." But after looking at Qin Nuan, he casually said, "Yet, there are always methods, I believe you can get it done." With that, his eyes subtly scanned between Qin Nuan and Luo Qianqian.
Qin Nuan didn’t speak, making no response.
Luo Qianqian extended her hand, "Then give them to me first, I’m afraid you’ll renege, these don’t include my share, you’re not allowed to go back on your word."
"I don’t have them on me, I’ll give them to you when I return," Diwu Yan said calmly, "Use the token as a pledge."
"Alright then," Luo Qianqian shrugged, "Do you have anything else?"
"No," Diwu Yan left the room speechlessly, was he just escorted out?
Seeing the two elderly and three young people weeping uncontrollably outside the door, his face turned cold, "Only this once!"
