Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All

Chapter 1206: Chapter 1177:

Big Brother Kang: ”...”

”I said the second half of the sentence, your mother and the others got definite news of Li Bao yesterday.” Captain Kang looked full of disdain and continued, ”No danger in the end, Li Bao is fine now. Let your wife know that after we finish up the chores at home, we’ll head to North City.”

”Oh.”

Big Brother Kang replied.

”Li Bao will be studying abroad for two or three years. Over in North City, your brother-in-law is busy with work, and only your mother is at home taking care of Ruirui and his siblings. I’m worried she won’t manage. When we get there, I’ll live in the big courtyard with your mother, and you and your wife can stay in the house Li Bao bought. As for what needs to be done later, Li Bao mentioned it to you two before, just handle it yourselves.”

After Captain Kang finished speaking, Big Brother Kang nodded, ”I’ll tell Yangyang’s mom in a bit.” He paused briefly, mouth slightly open, looking as if he wanted to say something but didn’t. Seeing this, Captain Kang glared, ”If you want to say something, just say it. What’s the point of acting all coy?”

Big Brother Kang chuckled foolishly, ”Dad, why did Li Bao have to go overseas to such a far place?”

”It’s quite complicated, ask your mother or Little Wu when we get to North City.”

Captain Kang didn’t want to elaborate; he’s still worried about his precious daughter.

Her health wasn’t good since she was a child. Although she was well taken care of after coming to North City, suddenly getting pregnant made him happy as a father, but also concerned about whether her health could handle it.

Time flows like water, and in the blink of an eye, twenty days have passed.

During this time, Zhou Heng and Zhang Lei, along with a female comrade in her thirties, brought the overseas study procedures Luo Yanqing prepared for Kang Li and came to her side.

Whether male comrades Zhou Heng and two others or the female comrade, all three are very skilled.

But among them, Zhou Heng and Zhang Lei mainly ensure Kang Li’s safety, while the female comrade named Song Sa is responsible for taking care of Kang Li’s daily life closely.

”What’s this...”

After dinner one night, Kang Li and Jiang Hongfa left the dining room, heading to the living room. Before sitting down, Jiang Hongfa glanced at Kang Li’s slightly protruding belly, with some hesitation in his eyes, wanting to ask if she was pregnant, but he didn’t voice the rest.

”Almost three months.”

Kang Li gently caressed her belly, a tender expression on her face.

”The child... it must be tough for you!” Jiang Hongfa felt very emotional, knowing he not only has a granddaughter but soon will have a great-grandchild. However, he didn’t let those emotions show excessively, saying, ”Your pregnancy is still early, but it’s already quite noticeable. So there might be more than one baby?”

”Yes.”

Kang Li nodded, ”There is indeed more than one.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Hongfa felt a surge of excitement again, but he maintained his composure, saying, ”Being able to stay here with your father makes your grandfather genuinely happy... However, you have to take care of yourself now that you’re pregnant, and make sure nothing goes wrong. By the way, when you go out, I’ll arrange more bodyguards to follow you; how does that sound?”

”No need. Comrade Zhou, Comrade Zhang, and Sister Song accompanying me are already sufficient.”

Kang Li said, knowing that aside from Zhou Heng, Zhang Lei, and Song Sa, there are three other black-clad bodyguards constantly by her side.

Whenever Kang Li goes out, they follow in another car, not too far or too close.

This was arranged by Jiang Hongfa, solely to ensure Kang Li’s safety while outside.

”...Alright, I’ll follow your wishes and not arrange more people around you.”

Saying this, Jiang Hongfa decided internally to assign three more bodyguards to protect Kang Li secretly.

Firmly guarding his granddaughter and unborn great-grandchild to ensure their safety.

Kang Li returned Jiang Hongfa’s smile and then sat on the sofa, picking up the newspaper to read.

After about fifteen minutes, she put down the newspaper and stood up, saying, ”It’s time for reading, I won’t sit here with you any longer.” Watching her head upstairs to the second floor until she was out of sight, Jiang Hongfa then withdrew his gaze.

He’s thinking now how wonderful it would be if one of the great-grandchildren could bear the surname ”Jiang.”

But, he’s uncertain.

Because up to now, Kang Li, his little granddaughter, hasn’t acknowledged him as her grandfather, something evident from how she’s called him ”Old Mr. Jiang.”

Jiang Hongfa feels bitter in his heart, even extremely regretful for not finding this granddaughter sooner. If he had brought her home more than ten years earlier, surely they would now enjoy harmonious family relationships, three generations together happily.

He sighed inwardly, his expression tinted with worry, afraid his wish for a great-grandchild bearing the surname ”Jiang” might not come true.

On the second floor.

Kang Li entered Jiang Boya’s room, switched on the bedside lamp, picked up a foreign essay collection placed at the lamp’s edge, and directly translated the original text to read aloud to Jiang Boya.

”What to do now? Everything’s settled; soon two comrades will go abroad to protect Li Bao. Moreover, Li Bao was taken overseas by relatives from her Grandma Yu’s family; how could they not take good care of Li Bao? Besides, Yanqing promised to take me to visit Li Bao overseas later.”

Cai Xiufen chatted away, though she was more worried than anyone about Kang Li’s safety, especially now that Kang Li is pregnant, they can’t afford any mishaps.

However, Cai Xiufen also realized that once Kang Li decided on something, it’s usually hard to change.

”Li Bao is going abroad to study; for what doctoral degree?”

”Yes, that’s what Li Bao mentioned to Yanqing.”

”Won’t it take several years?”

”Yanqing said with Li Bao’s learning ability, two or three years would be enough.”

”I see... Then you better help Li Bao take good care of Ruirui and his siblings. After finishing things at home, I’ll go to North City with the oldest and his wife.”

”Is your position as team leader still on?”

”Then let’s hurry to North City to find Li Bao, Dad!”

Big Brother Kang was anxious and was about to shout out to Elder sister-in-law Kang in the backyard, then heard Captain Kang retort irritably, ”Did you even fully listen to what I just said?”

Big Brother Kang: ”...”

”I said the second half of the sentence, your mother and the others got definite news of Li Bao yesterday.” Captain Kang looked full of disdain and continued, ”No danger in the end, Li Bao is fine now. Let your wife know that after we finish up the chores at home, we’ll head to North City.”

”Oh.”

Big Brother Kang replied.

”Li Bao will be studying abroad for two or three years. Over in North City, your brother-in-law is busy with work, and only your mother is at home taking care of Ruirui and his siblings.
