Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All

Chapter 297: Chapter 297: What, are you feeling sympathetic?

Pointing at Kang Li, Yang Zijuan sought confirmation from Kang Guoan. She really liked Guoan’s appearance; in all her life, he was the most handsome man she had ever seen.

He was the one she truly wanted to date, the one she wanted to marry!

Kang Guoan nodded without hesitation.

”...”

Yang Zijuan couldn’t accept it. Even though she already knew the answer and knew she didn’t have the confidence, she still couldn’t let it go. She turned her gaze back to Kang Li, ”As long as you two aren’t married, I still have hope!”

With that, she fought the discomfort in her heart and moved her gaze back to Kang Guoan, ”I...I know my reputation isn’t great, but I can change for you, Guoan, can’t you believe me? I really like you and want to date you. I promise, in my heart, you’re different from those I’ve dated before...”

Kang Guoan frowned, ”Comrade Yang Zijuan, you don’t need to tell me these things. I remember clearly telling you more than once that I’m not interested in you. Please trouble yourself not to come near me anymore. Now, my partner is standing right beside you. If you have any self-respect, you should leave immediately and stop showing up in front of me.”

Can she not understand what people say to her?

Taking two steps back, Yang Zijuan didn’t want to appear too defeated. She stood firm, staring intently at Kang Guoan, ”Aren’t you worried I could get you fired? Or do you not believe I have that power?”

Kang Guoan’s expression remained calm, ”Do whatever you want.” With that, he called out to Kang Li, ”Li Bao, let’s go.”

”Okay.”

Kang Li nodded and continued to walk alongside Kang Guoan.

Watching the two of them walk away, Yang Zijuan couldn’t hold back any longer, letting tears stream down her face.

”That female comrade seems to have some real feelings for you.”

After walking a distance, Kang Li glanced at Kang Guoan’s handsome profile and spoke softly, ”Her personality isn’t that great, and she’s somewhat domineering, but from a different perspective, I think she’s actually a rather naive girl. Also, even though she has had quite a few boyfriends, it was probably nothing more than holding hands...”

”What are you trying to do? You wouldn’t be trying to get your little brother here to take back what he’s said, would you?”

Kang Guoan gave Kang Li, his little sister, a strange look.

”Are you really sure you have no feelings for that female comrade?”

Kang Li was caught off guard by Kang Guoan’s look and couldn’t help but cough awkwardly twice before laughing uncomfortably and carefully observing the changes in his expression.

”If I had the slightest bit of interest, do you think I would’ve specifically asked for your help?” Kang Guoan said, shaking his head helplessly. He asked, ”What, are you feeling pity for her?”

Kang Li: ”How could that be?! Love is a matter between two people, what difference does an outsider’s pity make? I just feel that Comrade Yang might have put a little heart into her feelings for you and think she’s just been spoiled too much by her family, leading her to be rather self-centered and somewhat naively overbearing, that’s all.”

”Alright, whatever other people are like, it’s none of our business. Let’s not talk about her anymore.”

That ’her’ undoubtedly referred to Yang Zijuan.

Kang Li ”Oh”ed in response.

Kang Guoan: ”The food in our workplace canteen is pretty good. In a bit, your big brother will take you to try it out and also shut those gossipers up.”

Upon hearing this, Kang Li couldn’t help but tease, laughing, ”I never thought my big brother held grudges.”

Kang Guoan flicked Kang Li’s forehead with his finger, ”This isn’t about holding a grudge or not, it’s about the reputation of your big brother here.”
