Chapter 15: Chapter 15: Kang Li Was Grossed Out Chapter 15: Chapter 15: Kang Li Was Grossed Out Indeed, she had succeeded, not only in having Zhou Weimin and the Kang Family break off their engagement but also in gaining the Zhou Familyâs approval; all that was left was to wait for the end of the year, when everyone had some free time, to set up two tables for a wedding banquet.
What she didnât expect was that Zhou Weimin would secretly meet his former fiancée this morning, nor did she anticipate that this involved his former fiancéeâs close friend, Xu Chunxia.
How could she not get angry about this?
Setting aside whether Zhou Weimin might rekindle his relationship with his former fiancée, Xu Chunxia was someone she had to guard against.
Compared to the naïve and simple former fiancée of Zhou Weimin from the Team Leaderâs House, who lacked any sort of guile, Xu Chunxia was full of schemes.
And she was not as foolish as Zhou Weiminâs former fiancée, who mistakenly took a wolf for a friend and failed to see that Xu Chunxia was like a smiling tiger, discreetly wielding a hoe, trying to steal a good friendâs corner.
Because of this, and based on her observations of Xu Chunxia, she naturally had to guard against her, to prevent being taken advantage of. By offering to go to the Kang Family to see Zhou Weiminâs former fiancée, she wanted the Kang Family to know that Zhou Weiminâs current partner was her, hoping they would control their daughter not to interfere with her relationship with Zhou Weimin. On the other hand, she also wanted the villagers to know that she was the future daughter-in-law of the Zhou Family, so it would be best if they stopped gossiping about her.
However, Zhou Weimin disagreed with her going, and she understood his reasoning; he simply feared she would upset his former fiancée, but unfortunately for him, she was no pushover. What was hers was hers, and she had to assert her authority.
It would also serve as a signal to Xu Chunxia, this village girl with deep-seated intentions who had just bumped into them, to back off and recognize that she was not the naive girl from the Kang Family who couldnât see people for who they truly were!
Suddenly, Xu Chunxiaâs voice rang out with surprise, âLi Bao!â
Su Qing was undoubtedly brought back to her thoughts as she looked up following Xu Chunxiaâs gaze, along with Zhou Weimin, and saw Captain Kang riding a bicycle with his daughter Kang Li coming from another village path.
âLi Bao, youâre all right now, thatâs great!â
Seeing Xu Chunxia running over with a basket on her back, Captain Kang didnât want to stop, but he had to squeeze the brakes and turned his head to watch his precious daughter hop off the back seat.
âDad, you go on ahead, Iâll make my own way back later.â
Kang Li spoke sweetly to her father and watched Captain Kang ride away before finally turning her gaze to Xu Chunxia and Zhou Weimin who were approaching.
âIs there something you need?â
Her expression was indifferent as she finally settled her gaze on Xu Chunxia, who felt like she was looking at a stranger, unsure of what to say.
âLi Bao, Iâm glad you woke up, but I still have to say, for your own sake, donât marry that old man and become a stepmother to someone elseâs children.â
This was Zhou Weiminâs voice, and his face wore an expression that seemed to say it was for her own good, but it disgusted Kang Li.
âComrade Zhou Weimin, I believe Iâve already told you this morning that I donât need you to manage my affairs. Didnât you hear me, or do you think youâre somebody to me and that I must listen to you?â
In Kang Liâs fox-like eyes, indifference was clear, yet to Zhou Weimin, this indifference seemed alienating and cold, as if they were completely unrelated strangers, no, even less familiar than strangers.
Why had it come to this?
Zhou Weimin felt puzzled and hurt at the same time, saying, âLi Bao, I truly am only looking out for your best interest. Even if you find me intrusive and annoying, Iâm still going to advise you not to throw your life away on a grudge against me.â
âYeah, Li Bao, just listen to Brother Weimin, donât be so hard on yourself!â
