Chapter 302: Chapter 302: Accident

Kang Li nodded and asked Mrs. Qi, ”Godmother... I came over to ask you, since Chinese New Year is around the corner, did my godfather mention whether the station would grant a day or two off?”

”No, your godfather hasn’t called home recently. Going by the usual practice during the Spring Festival in previous years, the station generally operates as usual, though they will have a dinner together on New Year’s Eve.”

Mrs. Qi said, noticing Kang Li’s slightly stunned expression, she couldn’t help but add, ”If you’re missing Yanqing, you could actually go to the station and see him.”

Upon hearing this, Kang Li’s beautiful face almost instantly flushed with color, ”Godmother, are you teasing me?!”

Mrs. Qi smiled without answering and said, ”Young people, Godmother understands.”

Kang Li felt even more heat on her face, ”It’s not that I’m missing Luo Yanqing. It’s Ruirui and the others who miss their father. Just now at home, they were all asking if their dad would be able to come back and celebrate the Spring Festival with them, so I brought the kids over to ask you. Now that I know Luo Yanqing is likely unable to come back due to work, I’ll have a clear explanation for the kids on New Year’s Eve.”

”Marrying a man like Yanqing, sometimes I think about it, Godmother feels it’s really hard on you!” A young girl who just came of age, married and became a stepmother to three children, and with a husband who can’t be by her side often, having to shoulder all big or small matters at home by herself. As her godmother, seeing this really pains my heart.

But what can be done?

After all, everyone in this big courtyard knows that their loved ones are working hard for the nation’s growth, so it has become normal to not see them for a short period like a month or two, or even as long as half a year to a year, since very early on.

Kang Li smiled wryly and shook her head, ”I don’t think it’s anything. Luo Yanqing isn’t out there fooling around; he just can’t come home. If other families in this courtyard can get used to it, of course, I won’t become the odd one out.”

”Yes, getting used to it is good,” Mrs. Qi sighed softly and then said, ”I plan to take Xuan Xuan to the Martyrs’ Cemetery the day after tomorrow morning to visit my son and daughter-in-law. Would you like to bring Ruirui and the others along to pay tribute to Yanqing’s father?”

”...” Hearing this, Kang Li paused for a moment, then smiled and nodded, ”Alright.”

Mrs. Qi’s expression turned slightly wistful, ”In past years, if Yanqing had the time, he would go to pay his respects in person. If not, he would ask me or your godfather to help visit his father and tell him everything is fine.”

”From this year on, I will take Ruirui and the others to visit my father-in-law.” A martyr’s name lives forever, and Luo Yanqing’s father, her father-in-law, was not only a martyr but also her family. As his daughter-in-law, it was indeed her duty to clean his tomb and offer tribute.

Besides, if Luo Yanqing, his own son, didn’t have the time, it was all the more necessary for her to go. It would also allow her father-in-law, who sacrificed his life young on the battlefield, to rest in peace with a smile.

The landline suddenly rang.

”Hello, may I ask who you are looking for?”

Kang Li was sitting right by the landline, she picked up the receiver, politely greeted the caller, and the next moment, she heard Feng Yi’s voice tinged with a sob.

Seeing Kang Li frown slightly, Mrs. Qi couldn’t help but ask, ”Is it someone you know?”

Kang Li nodded slightly, ”It’s Feng Yi.” Saying this, Kang Li turned her attention back to the call with Feng Yi, ”Don’t panic, just tell me exactly what happened...”

”Sister! Sister Kang Li, I trust Brother Yan, I’m certain he would never take a guest’s belongings. Plus, Brother Yan said that apart from going out to eat and taking a break in the lounge when there were no guests, he didn’t enter the guests’ changing room at all.”
