Rebirth Stories #1 (Book 1)

Chapter 13

"She's not allowed to go out tomorrow!"

This action angered Nan Qiao. She stared at him with her round eyes. "What right do you have to restrict me?"

Nan Xuan looked at her and said sternly, "I'm your elder brother."

Nan Qiao bit her lips fiercely, her eyes filled with anger. "You're not my elder brother. You're Nan Zhi's elder brother."

"Auntie, ignore that girl. She's in her rebellious stage now and doesn't know how to respect her elders at all. You don't have to care about her in the future."

Nan Xuan turned around with a smile and told He Qian. He felt indignant that such a good stepmother who cared about them was not appreciated by Nan Qiao.

"It's fine. I know that Qiao'er hasn't been able to accept me yet. I'll make her accept me eventually." He Qian's eyes were filled with worry. "I wonder if Qiao'er has eaten since she came back so late."

"Auntie, don't worry about Nan Qiao. She won't starve to death. She's an able person with arms and legs. Are you afraid that she won't be able to find food? Unlike Zhizhi who can't go anywhere without help now that her leg is injured." Nan Hao's heart ached as he pressed Nan Zhi's head against his chest.

"It's ok for a biological mother to not discipline her child, but I'm a stepmother. When the time comes, I'll inevitably be criticized by others for not raising the kids well," He Qian said aggrievedly, her eyebrows filled with worry.

"Auntie, don't worry about Nan Qiao. As long as we're around, we definitely won't allow anyone to say anything bad about you." Nan Hao patted his chest and promised, his handsome face filled with smugness.

Nan Zhi rested her head on Nan Hao's body, her eyes filled with smugness.

Nan Qiao, your brothers are all on my side now. Let's see what else you can do.

Unbothered that Nan Qiao was still in the living room, they started trying on clothes and jewelry as if no one was around.

Nan Zhi's gaze swept past Nan Qiao's figure at the side. She stood out from everyone like a joke.

Nan Zhi took off the bracelet on her hand. "Sister, come and see if there's anything you like. These are all new things that the elder brothers bought me this afternoon. If you like anything, just take them away. There's no need to be polite. After all, my brothers are also your brothers."

Nan Zhi's words were actually unpleasant and infuriating. At first glance, one might think that Nan Qiao was the one brought here by the stepmother.

Nan Qiao snorted in her heart.

"Alright, our figures are similar. I haven't bought clothes in a long time. In that case, thank you."

Nan Qiao walked over and pointed at the pile of clothes and jewelry, wanting to take what she liked.

Nan Zhi did not expect Nan Qiao to have such a reaction. How could a proud person like her want something from her? Wasn't this Nan Qiao too unpredictable?

However, Nan Hao was the first to disagree. He jumped up like a cat that had its tail stepped on.

"We bought all of this for Zhizhi. Zhizhi was just being polite to you, but you really want to take some?"

Nan Qiao blinked her big innocent eyes. "Didn't she just offer them to me?"

Nan Zhi almost spat out a mouthful of blood. Why did this woman behave so shamelessly...

She just wanted to annoy Nan Qiao, but who knew that Nan Qiao would really accept her offer?

Nan Zhi could only pout and nod aggrievedly. "I wanted to give them to Sister."
