Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All

Chapter 240: Chapter 240 Waiting

The young man’s eyes reddened, and his voice hoarse, he moved as if to kneel down before Kang Li.

”Don’t! Please don’t!”

Kang Li raised her hand to stop him, ”Today’s just not my day, running into the two of you. However, I need to finish what I’m doing before I can take you to the hospital. If you agree, let’s do that, or else, you might have to think of something else.”

Looking at the young man, Kang Li felt like she was looking at a harmless little bunny.

”I’ll listen to sister.”

The young man had no objections.

Kang Li looked up at a 45° angle toward the sky: How sorrowful!

One call of ’sister,’ and she gave in, she’s really too unprincipled!

”What’s your name?”

Kang Li eventually resigned herself to her fate, passing the two travel bags to the young man’s uninjured hand, but she quickly took them back: ”Wait, your dislocated arm has been reset by me, but it still needs to be in a sling for a while.”

As she spoke, Kang Li had to take out the bandages again and help the young man sling his injured, dislocated arm that she had reset across his chest to protect the shoulder joint.

”Three to four weeks and you’ll be fine. This is to protect your shoulder joint, so don’t take it lightly.”

Kang Li cautioned him.

The young man nodded.

”Now we can leave this place.”

Zipping up the bags, Kang Li handed them back to the young man’s good hand before squatting down to support the still unconscious young man, securing him on her back and pretending to struggle as she walked towards the road by the edge of the woods, ”Keep up, walk a little farther and once I’m done with my things, I’ll figure out a way to get you to the hospital.”

The young man: ”Thank you, sister.”

Kang Li: ”Why do you call me sister? I might be younger than you!”

The young man: ”Sixteen.”

”You’re sixteen?”

Kang Li was surprised.

The young man was about 180 cm tall, she had thought he was an adult, but to her surprise, he was still just a child.

But then again, judging from his appearance, the young man did indeed look quite young.

”Then I am older than you, if you want to call me sister, then go ahead.”

Although it was a bit odd to be called ’sister’ by a young man nearly ten centimeters taller than herself, it wasn’t really a big deal, especially since before she came to this world, her brother Kang Yi was 188 cm tall.

And he still called her ’sister’ all the time.

...

With the area heavily guarded, Kang Li carefully set down the young man she was carrying on the ground near the research institute’s gate, which stood about twenty to thirty meters away, and the young man following her crouched to support his friend.

”You hold onto your friend and wait here a bit, I’ll be right back.”

Picking up the travel bags that the young man had put on the ground, Kang Li said this and then walked towards the gate of the research institute.

”Stop right there!”

Before she got close, Kang Li was stopped by a sentry raising his voice at her.

”Comrade, I’m Professor Luo’s wife, I’ve come to bring him a few things, do you know if Professor Luo is available right now?”

Stopping in her tracks, Kang Li smiled politely and explained why she was there.

”Wait a moment.”

The sentry briefly left those two words, turned around to say something to another sentry, then entered the guardhouse, picked up the telephone receiver, and dialed a number.

Soon after, Kang Li got a reply.

Her husband, Professor Luo, was busy.

In other words, someone didn’t have time for her!

Kang Li paused for a moment before smiling, ”Could you please pass on a message to Director Song for me, just tell him that a Comrade named Kang Li is waiting outside the gate to see him.”

This time, she had even brought two thick clothes for Director Song.

It wasn’t Mrs. Qi who asked her to help deliver them, she prepared them specially for Director Song, her godfather, as his goddaughter.

Kang Li was scrutinized with a sharp gaze for quite a while by the sentry before he spoke up again, ”...wait a moment.”
