Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All

Chapter 296: Chapter 296 Lack of Confidence

”Li Bao, this is the Comrade Yang Zijuan I mentioned to you,” Kang Guoan retracted the smile from his face the moment he saw Yang Zijuan. He introduced her to Kang Li first and then addressed Yang Zijuan, ”Comrade Yang Zijuan, this is my partner. To prevent any misunderstanding from my partner, please refrain from making strange gestures in my presence in the future.”

”Hello.”

Kang Li reached out to Yang Zijuan, but the other party just glared at her, showing no intention of greeting her back.

”Brother Little Wu, I’m feeling a bit cold. Let’s sit in your dorm for a while.”

The residential area of North City Petrochemical was situated to the east, and the office area to the west. Although some distance separated them, it was not too far; walking there would take at most fifteen minutes one way.

Yang Zijuan: ”Are you really Kang Guoan’s partner?”

”Comrade, your question is peculiar. I don’t think I need to answer you.”

Her brother had already made it crystal clear, hadn’t he? Was it necessary to confirm it with her again?

Yang Zijuan: ”I like Kang Guoan!”

Kang Li: ”I know.” She is good-looking, but that pampered expression on her face makes it apparent she’s been spoiled rotten by her family.

That was forgivable; after all, it was her family’s prerogative to dote on her, and outsiders had no right to interfere. What made her uncomfortable was the other’s contemptuous and haughty demeanor.

As if the person standing before her was a mere ant whose life and death she could control at will.

Ha! With such character, she wanted to be with her brother, to become her Fifth Sister-in-law? She might as well go wash up and go to bed!

”Break up with Kang Guoan, and I will give you money.”

Yang Zijuan’s tone was imperious, as if Kang Guoan was her possession, exuding arrogance at that moment.

”Comrade, take a good look, do I look like a beggar?” This day, Kang Li wore a beige knee-length woolen coat, a pure white woolen sweater underneath, black leggings paired with a matching knee-length woolen skirt, and black ankle boots on her feet.

Her simple attire nonetheless highlighted Kang Li’s slender figure and the unique charm that naturally emanated from her bones...

At this moment, Yang Zijuan sized up Kang Li from head to toe with great detail, her expression instantly stupefied.

Because irrespective of her clothes, the appearance of the girl standing before her was much more beautiful than her own self-proclaimed beauty.

Her skin was fair, like cream, her facial features were as if painted, so exquisite that Yang Zijuan couldn’t find a single flaw. Looking at this face, the jealousy surging in her heart deflated like a punctured ball, all of a sudden disappearing.

Not that she didn’t want to feel jealous, but she lacked the confidence to do so.

Yang Zijuan couldn’t understand why she didn’t have this feeling when she first saw her; instead, she felt a burning jealousy, wishing to pry the girl away from Kang Guoan’s side immediately.

That’s right, Kang Guoan. Before, all her thoughts were on Kang Guoan; she only wanted to drive away the girl by his side and hadn’t paid attention to her looks.

Having realized this, Yang Zijuan couldn’t help but feel wronged.

Was it because he had such a beautiful partner... that’s why Kang Guoan refused to date her?

”I...”

Yang Zijuan’s lips quivered, struggling to find the right words to continue.

A woolen coat, a beige knee-length one like this, was not only expensive but also only available at the Friendship Store.

She thought her own red mid-length woolen coat was very beautiful and impressive, but compared to this woman before her, she now felt like a plain country girl.

Not fashionable at all!

”Kang Guoan, is she really your partner?”
