Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All

Chapter 235: Chapter 235: A Small Loss

After getting home, Xiao Ming Rui and his two siblings washed up and obediently climbed into bed to listen to their mom’s bedtime story, but the thought of their mother leaving them in the care of Grandma (Granny Qi) tomorrow,

made Xiao Ming Rui’s mood unavoidably desolate, especially for Xiao Ming Wei. It had been quite a long time since she had seen their father, she missed him too, but why wouldn’t mom take her along?

It should be said that Xiao Ming Rui had truly accepted Kang Li as his new mom from the bottom of his heart, precisely from the day school had started and Kang Li went to deal with the fight at the school.

Unconditional trust, she defended him and his siblings in front of the teachers, classmates, and those parents, without criticizing them, her first concern was whether they were hurt.

Anyhow, the new mom was much better than the one from his memories, who would pinch, twist, and scold him at the slightest provocation.

But... but he still couldn’t call the new mom ”Mom”.

Thinking like this, Xiao Ming Rui felt like he was a bad child.

At this moment, hearing his sister and new mom talking, although he was lying face up in bed, he pricked up his ears, wanting to hear what the new mom would say next.

No, that’s not quite right, he just wanted to hear the new mom’s voice, because it was both pleasant and gentle, and every time he heard it, he felt exceptionally at ease.

”The road from the compound to dad’s workplace is too far, it’s not convenient for mom to take you all with her.”

Kang Li’s words were not just for the little girl but also for Milk Bun Ming Han and big brother Min Rui. Hearing this, the three kids stayed silent for a while. Seeing this, Kang Li smiled and said, ”But don’t worry, once I see dad, I will definitely send him your regards and tell him how much our family’s little ones miss him.”

After a while, Xiao Ming Wei pouted, ”Mom, is that the only way?”

”Yes, that’s the only way!”

Kang Li nodded, giving an affirmative answer.

”...Alright then!”

Even though she wanted to visit dad, she knew mom was right; it would be very inconvenient for mom to look after them all alone on such a long journey.

”Mom, I’ll be good and play with Brother Xuan Xuan at Grandma’s house, and wait for you to come back for your baby!”

Milk Bun Ming Han declared.

Big brother Min Rui: ”I will help Grandma take good care of my younger siblings.”

Xiao Ming Wei looked at big brothers Min Rui and Ming Han, holding back the slight sense of loss inside her, she too made a promise, ”Mom, go see dad without worrying. I won’t cry. I’ll be good with big brother and second brother at Grandma’s house, waiting for you to come back.”

”Good, mom knows.”

With a gentle smile in her beautiful fox-like eyes, Kang Li spoke indulgently, ”Tonight, let’s tell a story about an idiom...” Xiao Ming Rui and his siblings lay quietly in their beds, listening to their mom telling them stories. As time trickled by and Kang Li saw that the little ones were asleep, she stopped speaking, got up to tuck them in properly, and then returned to the master bedroom to rest.

”Tell me about the rewards I have now,” Kang Li said as she lay in bed, communicating with Dwen Dwen through her mind’s eye.

”Sister, I’ll report to you now...” Dwen Dwen rambled on. After an unknown amount of time, Kang Li finally heard Dwen Dwen finish with, ”That’s all from me. If sister wasn’t listening carefully, I can say it again.”

Kang Li: ”No need.” She hadn’t expected that since the last time she checked her rewards just over a month ago, the system had granted her quite a few more.
