Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All

Chapter 1605: Chapter 1283:

”It’s not absolutely necessary, but I think it’s better for me to go back and take a look myself. Not to mention, for instance, when it comes to selecting a site for the factory, I want to conduct a field inspection.”

Kang Li’s expression is gentle, and her voice is as melodious as spring water dripping onto stone slabs, exceptionally pleasing to the ear. She said, ”In my plan, whether it’s building roads or schools, or constructing a factory, I intend to hire a professional survey team and construction team for operations.

When it comes to planning the road route, I don’t necessarily need to see it myself. The location of the elementary school is handled by my cousin, the Team Leader, in discussion with the village officials, so I don’t need to worry about that either. Only the factory site, I think it’s better for me to take a look myself.”

Luo Yanqing: ”How long will it take?”

Kang Li: ”At most a week.”

Luo Yanqing: ”Driving back?”

Kang Li: ”Yeah, but the driver and assistant will be with me.”

”Assistant? You haven’t mentioned that before.” Luo Yanqing furrowed his brow slightly. ”Is it a man or a woman?”

”A man, he’s very capable and I hired him with a high salary. However, I also have a female assistant who happens to be from our county. After selecting the site for the factory, I’ll leave the subsequent work to the two of them.”

Saying this, Kang Li glanced at Luo Yanqing, her eyes filled with playful mischief: ”Jealous?” It was not a question, but a statement.

”...”

Luo Yanqing didn’t respond. He looked over at the three Buns, then gave Kang Li a knowing glance.

”Don’t worry, the Buns are well disciplined and focused when doing homework!”

It wasn’t Kang Li being boastful; the kids she raised were particularly focused on whatever they did, like studying attentively or reading without distraction, unaffected easily by external environments.

After hearing what Kang Li said, Luo Yanqing gave a quick two-word response: ”Not really.”

”Are you sure?”

Kang Li looked at him with playful curiosity: ”I don’t believe it.” If he wasn’t jealous, why specifically ask about it?

Luo Yanqing felt a bit uncomfortable being stared at, he turned his head away, clenched his fist to his lips and coughed lightly twice, then returned his attention to Kang Li: ”When you go back to your hometown, what about the Buns?”

”Our dad is there, no need to worry.”

”What about your classes?”

”I’ll find someone to substitute for a few classes, or alternatively, I’ll just postpone them.”

”What day are you leaving?”

”Early next Saturday morning.”

”Alright.”

By then, he’ll be taking a week off, so all the issues can be resolved.

”What are you thinking?”

Noticing the unusual look on Luo Yanqing’s face, Kang Li casually asked.

”Next Friday I’m going to use my two days’ leave for this month and take an early leave for the next two months, that way I can stay at home to look after Luo Mingting and the others, and also help with your classes on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.”

His eyes like pitch-black ink were straightforward; Luo Yanqing didn’t think of hiding it from Kang Li at all.

Kang Li hesitated a bit: ”Is this alright? I hope it doesn’t affect your work.”

”It won’t affect my work, don’t worry. If my work was really that urgent, I wouldn’t come to the university to substitute classes.” Whenever the research project progress is tight, he basically lives in the lab with barely any time to run to Shuimu University every week to teach.

And the university is very much aware of his situation, so when they hired him, they clearly stated that his work should take precedence.

Honestly, if there weren’t tasks from above, he wouldn’t serve as a visiting professor at Shuimu University, pulling time from his job to give students half a day of lectures here.

”Thanks a lot!”

Smile spread across Kang Li’s eyebrows.

”We’re husband and wife. Besides, I’m Luo Mingting’s father, and I’m part of this family. I can’t let you carry all the responsibilities just because of my work.”

Luo Yanqing spoke with a hint of guilt, holding Kang Li’s hand: ”You’ve worked hard.”

”It’s not hard, really.” Kang Li shook her head, withdrew her hand, then blinked at Luo Yanqing, silently giving a three-word warning: ”Don’t mess around.”

Understanding her meaning, Luo Yanqing felt wronged. Did he mess around? His Phoenix Eyes carried a trace of grievance as he looked at Kang Li unblinkingly.

Seeing this, Kang Li was just about to speak when she heard a soft giggle. She looked up only to see Guoguo covering her mouth with her tiny hand, her large eyes full of laughter.

Of course, the laughter came from Guoguo.

Kang Li pretended to be stern: ”Luo Mingxi, have you finished your homework?”

”Almost done!”

Guoguo lowered her hand, her small expression soft and adorable.

”You haven’t finished your homework and are distracted, so you’ll have to face the wall and think for fifteen minutes later.”

Kang Li declared the punishment.
