Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All

Chapter 1314: Chapter 1210:

After buying all the gifts, Kang Li categorized and placed them neatly, sticking notes on the outside packaging to mark whose it was. In short, everyone dear to her heart would receive gifts brought back home by Luo Yanqing and Captain Kang, Cai Xiufen.

Seeing the days slip by, it was only three days before Luo Yanqing and Captain Kang were to return to their homeland, leaving Kang Li feeling a bit melancholic.

”Is it because you don’t want me to go back home?”

The moonlight was bright, streaming through the delicate and simple floor-to-ceiling curtains into the bedroom, casting a soft, poetic light.

After a loving moment, Luo Yanqing carried Kang Li to the bathroom to freshen up. It was upon returning to bed that Luo Yanqing noticed Kang Li’s unusual mood and couldn’t help but ask.

”With you and Mom and Dad leaving soon, I feel a bit uncomfortable.”

Held tightly in his arms, Kang Li’s voice was muffled, ”Time flies too quickly.”

”Yes, time does fly, but you have to study, and I have to work, so we have to be apart for now. Besides, Mom and Dad don’t have a valid reason to stay here. Once the time is up, the local authorities will have them sent back... Dear, when you finish your studies and return, we can be together forever.”

As he gently comforted his wife in his arms, Luo Yanqing’s dark eyes were full of tenderness: ”If you miss Mom and Dad, you can always call them or write letters.”

Kang Li felt a little better and looked up at him with a sly glint in her eyes: ”What if I miss you?”

”Calls and letters work too.”

With his beautifully contoured chin lightly resting against her forehead, Luo Yanqing smiled with the corners of his mouth: ”We’ve taken many photos recently. If you miss me, you can look at my photos. Likewise, I will look at your photos every day, morning and night. This way, the days will pass quickly, and it will ease the longing.”

”Sweet talker.”

Kang Li playfully chided him, then said, ”Take more photos of me and the kids back with you, and remember to send some photos of Ruirui and the others when you write. That way, when I have time, I can teach the kids Tangyuan and Guoguo to recognize their older brother and sister through the photos.”

”When traveling abroad becomes easier, I’ll take all my nephews abroad to have fun.”

”They might not need you, their little aunt, to take them.”

”I know what you’re trying to say. It’s because they’ll have succeeded on their own and might study or travel abroad.”

”Don’t you want your nephews to succeed?”

”That’s harsh! I want my nephews to succeed more than anyone else, so they can contribute to the rise of Old Kang’s Family!”

Kang Li was radiant as she spoke, giving him a proud look.

Luo Yanqing laughed, ”From my perspective, Old Kang’s Family is already on the rise.”

”Not yet.”

Kang Li was humble.

”How is it not? Counting those who got into university the same year as you, there are now seven university students from Old Kang’s Family. Plus, your eldest brother’s four kids all made it.

This year’s college entrance exam, your third brother’s eldest will participate. It’s a safe bet they’ll get into college. In the coming years, university students will emerge one by one from Old Kang’s Home.

Not just in rural areas, even in urban ones, that’s a source of pride. Especially since the nephews got into college at such young ages, showing how remarkable the kids in the family are. Who dares say such a rural family hasn’t risen?”

”You’re exaggerating!”

Though she spoke modestly, Kang Li’s eyes were filled with pride and joy.

She truly hadn’t expected all her nephews to be so studious, competing with each other in their efforts without any prodding, all with study plans of their own.

Well, she should have realized it was the effect of leading by example.

After all, the year she took the college entrance exam, her eldest nephew Kang Yiyang and his brothers Kang Yichen, Kang Yihong, along with her younger brother Kang Guoan, not only got into college but were admitted to prestigious ones.

Last year, her eldest brother’s fourth child and her second brother’s eldest both skipped grades to take the entrance exam and scored well, with one attending a famous school in Hu City and the other at a key provincial college in their hometown.

Next will be her second brother’s second child and her third brother’s eldest. Either way, as predicted, in the coming years, college students will emerge from Old Kang’s Family one by one.

Even if not all get into top schools, getting into college shouldn’t be a problem.

Even if one falls short, there’s no reason to worry.

Why?

Because among the 360 trades, a master can appear in every trade, and college isn’t the only path. Moreover, with the family’s elders in business, those nephews not going to college can do what they love with family support.

The premise, of course, is to take a proper path.

Kang Li chuckled, ”Don’t get too excited. Before Austin and Shen Yun divorced, Austin promised not to appear in her and her son’s life again. Based on this, they haven’t contacted each other for years.

Recently, Austin plans to visit our country for market research, and he thought of visiting his son. But to save time, he mentioned it to me, only to realize I wasn’t close to Shen Yun. So, he’s hoping you could provide more information about Shen Yun and her son Jian.”

Luo Yanqing felt wronged: ”You’re not familiar. Does that mean I am?”

Kang Li smiled awkwardly, ”Fine, fine, don’t be upset. Tomorrow I’ll call Austin and tell him that Shen Yun is remarried, suggesting he go straight to Shen Yun’s parents. They can help arrange a meeting with his son.”

”...” After a while, Luo Yanqing spoke, ”Okay, then.”

”You seemed so anxious and aggrieved earlier. Did Shen Yun contact you again?”

Kang Li teased him when she noticed his unease, ”Could it be that I guessed right?”

”No.”

Luo Yanqing shook his head, ”If she dares come near me, I wouldn’t hesitate to embarrass her in public.”

The truth was, after Shen Yun heard Kang Li was going abroad for further studies, she held doubts. In the month before Luo Yanqing went abroad, although Shen Yun didn’t approach him directly, her gaze turned odd every time she saw him.

Luo Yanqing once noticed it, and when their eyes met, he felt nothing but disgust.

He found Shen Yun restless and shameless, still harboring inappropriate thoughts towards him despite being married.

If it weren’t for a critical stage in his project at the time, Luo Yanqing might have already taken action to drive this fly away from his work circle, lest it buzz around disturbing his peace.

”Looks like she’s still stuck on you!”

Kang Li’s tone was teasing.

”Good.”

”Looks like she’s still stuck on you!”

Kang Li’s tone was teasing.

”Good.”
