Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All

Chapter 835: Chapter 835: It’s Not That Simple, Is It?

In your heart, is there a place for me, and where do you place me? What leaves me speechless is, knowing that work comes first in your heart, I can only step back, yet I can’t hold a grudge against you. Don’t you think I’m foolish?”

Gently kissing Kang Li on the forehead, Luo Yanqing softly said, ”No, you’re not foolish, you’re just feeling sorry for me. That’s why, even though you feel wronged, you can’t bear to resent me. I’m sorry, Li Bao. Emotionally speaking, I’ve placed you at the center of my heart, but when it comes to work, I’m just focused and rigorous...

I can’t manage to think about romantic love and family trivialities. I know from the moment you married me until now, I owe you a lot, and even in the decades to come... I will owe you more. But to ask me to give up my work or to be half-hearted in it...”

”Who’s asking you to give up work or be half-hearted anyway? Don’t put words in my mouth!”

Kang Li interrupted the man, pretending to be fierce as she bit his lip, ”If you keep randomly accusing me, I’ll just bite you again!”

In the next instant, Luo Yanqing kissed her lips.

”Mmm...”

Bad person! When he can’t win an argument, he resorts to this tactic!

After a while, Luo Yanqing finished the kiss and said, ”I didn’t accuse you of anything, you’re wonderful. How could I bear to randomly accuse you?”

Kang Li, with pride: ”I’m wonderful, so why don’t you listen to me?”

”The research is at a critical stage, and I can’t let it go. To take a step back, even if I put down my work and went home with you, my mind would still be on the research, unable to truly relax and enjoy the vacation.”

Hearing Luo Yanqing speak like this, Kang Li naturally knew it was the truth.

When work is at a critical juncture, she wouldn’t be able to leave it for a vacation either.

Losing herself in thought, Kang Li decided to drop the topic between them and casually brought up Old Lady Yu: ”Do you still remember that Grandma Yu?”

”Yes, I remember, go on.”

Luo Yanqing responded.

”Since winter began, Grandma Yu’s health has started to decline. The last time I visited was more than a week before the college entrance exams. Grandpa Xiao said Grandma Yu has been resuscitated in the hospital twice, saying that her health is not what it was, and it’s impossible to recover to the way it was over two years ago. Do you think we should visit her more frequently before heading back to our hometown?”

”I’ll follow your lead.”

”I don’t know why, but I always feel like Grandma Yu is looking at someone through me, yet she truly likes me and treats me like her own granddaughter. Over the years, Grandma Yu has given me and Ruirui many things. Every time I refused, she would forcefully put them in my hands, or else she would wipe her tears in front of me, saying I was distancing myself from her.”

”Maybe the old lady feels a connection with you.”

”A connection? It’s not that simple, right?”

”Are you trying to explain the feeling you’ve developed?”

”Mm.”

Who was Old Lady Yu seeing through her?

Why did she feel like the lady treated her like her own granddaughter?

Kang Li had thought about it more than once but couldn’t figure it out.

After a moment of silence, Luo Yanqing asked, ”Could you be overthinking it?”

”My intuition has always been accurate.”

Kang Li’s expression was somewhat solemn: ”I am my parents’ child, and there’s definitely no blood relation with Grandma Yu. Furthermore, I met Grandma Yu by chance after coming to North City...”

Luo Yanqing: ”Come to think of it, your eyes are a bit similar to the old lady’s.”
