Chapter 458: Chapter 438: Qin Nuan (11)
However, the situation was far from as simple as they had thought. After waiting all night, they still didn’t see the person Qin Nuan was supposed to meet. Knowing that Qin Nuan must have noticed something and had gone directly to the school, they realized there was little they could do inside the campus. But conversely, Qin Nuan wouldn’t be able to slip away either.
So, the same car now stopped again at the school entrance. Luo Qianqian, who had been paying close attention outside the car window, immediately noticed, "Nuannuan, isn’t that the car from yesterday?"
Upon hearing "yesterday", Qin Nuan immediately put down her phone, turned her head to look out the window, and sure enough, it was the same car.
Luo Yanwu furrowed his brows, just about to say something when he heard Luo Qianqian say, "Third Brother, let’s go to the shopping district."
Qin Nuan was about to stop her but was compelled to give in by the determination in her eyes. She was doing this for her sake, after all, so she didn’t speak, nor did she suggest getting out of the car to meet them or anything of the sort.
"Hey, should I make a call to Second Brother Qin now or should I call Fourth Brother?" Luo Qianqian casually took out her phone.
"Why?" Qin Nuan hadn’t caught on yet.
"Well, on one hand, I’d tell Second Brother Qin to hurry up so this guy won’t always come looking for you when he’s got nothing better to do. As for Fourth Brother, it’s to get him to whisk you away so you won’t sit here overthinking things. Rather than that, you might as well really become a—" Her words were cut off by Qin Nuan’s hand, and the sound faded. If it were just the two of them it wouldn’t be a big deal, but with Luo Yanwu sitting in the car, even though he was trying his best to look away and pretend he knew nothing, he couldn’t help but fail against youth, as youth tended to blush more easily.
"Actually, you guys can just enter through the back door. I’ll stop the car and help you get your luggage up, what’s there to be afraid of with me around?" Luo Yanwu couldn’t pretend to be nonexistent any longer and finally spoke up.
Luo Qianqian stood there, stunned, like she had been struck by lightning, and after a moment screamed, "Why didn’t you say so earlier?" If she had known about the back door, why would they have bothered running around?
Luo Yanwu was speechless; wasn’t that common knowledge?
Qin Nuan had nothing to say; didn’t they know that? Did they plan to graduate without even knowing how many buildings the school had?
"It’s a good thing I was driving slowly," Luo Yanwu calmly turned the corner.
Was it really a matter of how fast or slow you were driving? Look at this road blocked up like an ellipsis; you couldn’t escape even if you wanted to, okay?
Fortunately, there weren’t many cars on the small road, and the three of them easily found a parking spot. Luo Yanwu, as the elder brother, took it upon himself to carry his sister’s bedding roll. Though he couldn’t help but feel somewhat resentful in his heart, as what he was holding felt much thicker than what they had when they first went to school.
But since his sister was the only girl in the Luo Family, he didn’t feel the slightest bit of jealousy; carrying the bedding roll and backpack, he followed the two girls up to the female dormitory.
Since it was move-in season, it was normal for parents to enter and exit the girls’ dorm, so no dorm matron was seen yelling to stop anyone.
Once Luo Yanwu got going, Qin Nuan had to step aside. His skill at making beds left both girls in awe.
He didn’t forget to hang up the curtains Qin Nuan had prepared for Luo Qianqian; Luo Qianqian’s mouth formed an ’O’ as she watched, and once Luo Yanwu had finished, both girls spontaneously began clapping.
Luo Yanwu initially didn’t think much of it, but now the applause made him blush with embarrassment.
Looking at the bed with its powdery hues, Luo Qianqian felt powerless. Had Qin Nuan coordinated with their family on this? Why was it all in the same color scheme?
Seeing the matching colors of the upper and lower bunks, Qin Nuan started to laugh. She had chosen the colors simply because they looked nice; who knew it would resonate so well with the elders of the Luo Family?
Her own space was plain and simple, with ink wash landscape curtains, while Luo Qianqian’s were adorned with a gaggle of cats.
"You can tell she’s still a child; isn’t it nice?" Luo Yanwu actually quite liked it, feeling that his sister should be innocent and cute like this.
"I’ve packed everything up. Once I stuff these things into the closet, let’s get out of here before someone finds us in the dorm," Qianqian said with foresight.
For instance, the girl standing hesitantly at the door right now, looking at the three of them, "Um, may I ask if Qin Nuan is here?"
Qianqian frowned, "What’s it about?"
"Someone is looking for her downstairs. I’ve delivered the message," the girl said and hurried away. Qianqian squinted and moved closer to the window. She wasn’t Qin Nuan, so what did she have to fear?
Looking at the person below, Qianqian couldn’t help but laugh, "Roses."
"Hmm?" Seeing Qianqian’s expression, Qin Nuan and Luo Yanwu also came to the window, and sure enough, it wasn’t the person they were worried about, but the guy who delivered roses the day before.
"Hey, isn’t that quite romantic?" Qianqian said, grinning as she snapped a photo with her phone. He was still holding a bunch of roses. She really wondered what he was thinking.
"Do you think it’s the same bunch from yesterday?" Qin Nuan remained unfazed, glancing briefly before ignoring him entirely.
"Hah, no way, right?" Qianqian popped her head out for another look and shook her head, "Yesterday’s were red, today’s are blue. I really wonder how much he gets for his monthly allowance, bragging with two bunches of flowers. They must be at least five hundred, right?"
"Are you fond of flowers or just worried about the money?" Qin Nuan gave her a sideways glance, "If you want flowers that badly, go find Xu Tianyi. I disdain the ones from that kind of person, they pollute the air."
Qianqian rolled her eyes, "What does Xu Tianyi have to do with this? Can’t I buy them for myself if I want? It’s not like I’m broke."
"Yes, yes, yes," Qin Nuan didn’t bother to call her out, already thinking about how to price this piece of information when Xu Tianyi returns.
"So are we going down now or what?" Qianqian looked down at the person below with disdain in her eyes. Wanting to cling even when she knew the other party had a boyfriend, what was that about?
"Why bother with him? Let’s go down," Qin Nuan described such people with only one word -- disdainful.
They locked up the dorm door, composedly walked downstairs, and Qianqian’s eyes gleamed with an idea.
As expected, when Qin Nuan appeared, the guy walked up to her, but before he could speak—
Qianqian blurted out, "Brother, sister-in-law, shall we go to the supermarket later? I’m craving some potato chips."
"Didn’t you just say you were on a diet?" Qin Nuan looked at her disdainfully, not taking Qianqian’s way of addressing her seriously at all. Luo Yanwu was indeed her brother, and she was indeed Qianqian’s future sister-in-law.
The man’s footsteps halted instantly, and upon seeing Luo Yanwu, he opened his mouth but ultimately took off with the flowers.
Qianqian observed his actions and sneered disdainfully, "Scared off by my third brother, huh? Wait until he sees my fourth brother; he might just drop dead from fright."
"You child," Qin Nuan finally realized why Qianqian had deliberately called her sister-in-law a moment ago and couldn’t help but laugh, "You really aren’t afraid of getting beaten up, are you?"
"Who’s going to hit me? You or my brother at home?" Qianqian said with her head held high, proud. At the Luo Family, she was untouchable, and as long as she didn’t turn the house upside down, they were all very indulgent towards her. She was always obedient, and her occasional mischief was seen as the honest spirit of a child. Who would blame her?
Luo Yanwu turned his head away, not wanting to look at his sister’s overbearing demeanor. However, his attention was diverted to a man in a suit moving in their direction, and he instinctively stood in front of the two women.
