Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All

Chapter 137: Chapter 137: Is This Something He Can Decide?

”Besides, health is essential for revolution. If you are stripped of it, all the things you wish to accomplish will only turn into regrets.”

”Yes.”

Luo Yanqing agreed.

”Since you agree with me, please remember to rest during work, don’t forget to eat on time, and when you have days off, come back and see the children.”

Kang Li said this, and after a while, he finally heard Luo Yanqing respond, ”I’ll try my best.”

”All right, I’ll remember your words.” Covering her mouth, Kang Li yawned gracefully. Her eyelids began to droop significantly, and she slowly closed her eyes, saying, ”I’m tired, good night, Luo Yanqing!”

Upon hearing this, Luo Yanqing’s lips slightly parted, ”... Good night.” Did she dislike his demeanor? Did she find him too serious and distant?

No one answered him, and soon, Luo Yanqing also closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Recently, Director Song was also on leave at home. Therefore, whenever Song Xuan walked towards the courtyard door, Director Song would certainly follow behind. After a few occurrences, Director Song noticed that his eldest grandson was very fond of visiting the Luo Family, and once there, he not only enjoyed playing with Ruirui and his siblings but also loved listening to Comrade Xiao Kang tell stories, play the erhu, and teach crafts.

Although still seeming to live in his own world, always silent, the grandson’s gaze constantly followed Comrade Xiao Kang.

With this discovery, Elder Song naturally would not keep his grandson confined at home.

He made a decision and talked to Luo Yanqing first—he and Mrs. Qi wanted to adopt Kang Li as their goddaughter.

Thus, that day, Director Song brought Song Xuan to the Luo Family, and upon seeing Kang Li telling stories to Ruirui and the others, Song Xuan walked forward obediently, placed his hands on his knees, and quietly sat on a small chair, watching Kang Li and listening intently.

”Come, let’s go to your study, I have something to talk to you about.”

Patting Luo Yanqing’s shoulder, Director Song led the way.

The study door was halfway open; after both seated themselves, Luo Yanqing looked up at Director Song and heard him say, ”Your Auntie Qi and I would like to recognize your Comrade Xiao Kang as our goddaughter, what do you think?”

Luo Yanqing: ”...” Was this something he could decide?

After a while without a response from Luo Yanqing, Director Song added, ”You know my family’s situation. Over the years, your Auntie Qi has always harbored concerns. To outsiders, it seemed she had emerged from her past sorrows with a smile on her face, but I know that your Auntie Qi has... never really let go of that matter.

She has been holding on because she knows she cannot fall; she still needs to raise Xuan Xuan... But recently, I’ve seen her truly happy, and it was Comrade Xiao Kang from your family who brought her that joy. She said she really took a liking to Comrade Xiao Kang, saying that watching Comrade Xiao Kang was like watching her own child,

and couldn’t help but discuss with me the idea of adopting Comrade Xiao Kang as our goddaughter. I know this might come as a surprise to Xiao Kang, but I still want you and Xiao Kang to talk about it and see if she is willing.”

After a moment of silence, Luo Yanqing spoke, ”I can bring it up with her, but... but I think it might be best if you or Auntie Qi personally talk to her about it.” Doing so would show sincerity, and without him intervening, she might not agree.

After all, she has both parents and plenty of family members; she is not lacking in god-relatives.

Just as Luo Yanqing finished speaking, the sound of an erhu echoed from the living room.

Director Song opened his mouth but swallowed the words he was about to say, and together with Luo Yanqing, they listened to the melody.

”Xiao Kang really plays the erhu well, and each piece is delightful to hear.”
