Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All

Chapter 300: Chapter 300: No Need to Wrong Oneself

”Relying on your family’s doting nature and our modest family background, ever since you graduated from middle school, you started dating, and you change partners every six months. Do you know what everyone is saying behind your back? And how they’re poking fun at our family’s spine? Brother and I should be of the age to consider marriage, but neither of us has a partner right now.”

”...Is that even my fault?”

Yang Zijuan felt guilty.

”Not your fault? Let’s not even mention your so-called ’good’ reputation. Just tell me, which female comrade would take a fancy to Brother or me, get close to us, and you, without saying a word, go run to her and warn her not to even think about the toad wanting to eat swan meat,”

”Once or twice you doing this, fine, but three or four times you continued to do so. Do you think any female comrades would still want to come near Brother or me, willing to enter our family’s door?”

”Yang Zijuan, wake up. Our father is just one of several directors at his workplace, and our mother is merely a head nurse at the hospital. With our family’s status, what is there for you to be so proud and look down on others? Toying with feelings, acting so high and mighty, and interfering with Brother’s and my matters time and again, I’ve had enough of you!”

Grandma Yang: ”Juanjuan, is what your second brother said true?” This year her grandsons Da Wei was 23 and Xiaowei 21, both good-looking men, yet they didn’t have partners and no one had come to their door to propose a match. Could the root of the problem really lie with her granddaughter?

”I... I was doing it for Brother’s and your own good. All those girls were so ugly, none of them deserved to be with Brother or you. That’s why I approached them to tell them not to embarrass themselves, it’s better they don’t pursue Brother and you, and especially not to think about entering our family.”

If Yang Xiaowei knew the word ”double standard,” he would definitely have used it to describe his sister Yang Zijuan.

”Juanjuan, you’ve disappointed me so much!”

Mother Yang sighed deeply and took the lunch box her son Yang Xiaowei gave her to the kitchen.

Father Yang’s brows were tightly furrowed, and his expression was icy: ”You will not meddle in who your Brother or second brother dates from now on.”

”Juanjuan, you’re too wilful!”

Leaving behind those words, Grandma Yang turned and went back to her room.

...

”Little brother, who was that comrade we ran into when we left the canteen? I feel like he was looking at you a bit strangely!”

After Kang Guoan took her to the workers’ canteen for a meal and they returned to his dormitory, they were idling, and Kang Li couldn’t help but ask.

”That was Yang Zijuan’s second brother. He just graduated from Worker-Peasant-Soldier University this year and works in the technical department,”

Kang Guoan replied without emotion.

Kang Li was curious, ”Do you know each other?”

Kang Guoan: ”We’ve interacted through work, and there’s also the fact that Yang Zijuan keeps sticking around me, so it’s not strange that her brother knows who I am.”

Putting away the smile on her face, Kang Li softly called out to Kang Guoan: ”Little brother...”

Kang Guoan: ”Hmm?”

”Are you happy with your work here?” Kang Li asked.

”...Of course, I’m happy. I really like my job!”

After a moment’s hesitation, Kang Guoan cracked a smile.

Kang Li: ”If you’re so fed up with that Yang Zijuan, after today, if she keeps pestering you, you don’t have to be polite with her! You don’t need to worry about her threats, I believe no one would dare to fire you as long as you haven’t made any mistake in your work!”

”Silly girl!”

A warmth surged in Kang Guoan’s heart, and he said, ”Even if I did get fired, I wouldn’t be afraid, I can always go back to our hometown and earn work points. If they expect me to sell out my feelings and marriage just to stay working at North City Petrochemical, sorry, I can’t do that!”

Kang Li: ”You just focus on being at ease, unless you no longer wish to work here, no one who might want to use their power to fire you for personal reasons will succeed in doing so!”
