Chapter 18: Chapter 18 Brothers Live in Harmony Chapter 18: Chapter 18 Brothers Live in Harmony After all, in her original world, what kind of man hadnât she seen?
And of those who caught her eye, which wasnât a top-notch man?
This alone, each of her secretaries was stunning and well-rounded in both talents and looks.
Not to mention her father and brother, who were absolutely the cream of the crop among men.
Now, how blind must she be to not forget an old love for a man like Zhou Weimin?
Since she no longer cared about him, how could she talk of protecting him?
As for being soft-hearted, in her case, it simply did not exist towards those who were clueless.
âYes, that bastard is just a scoundrel, and you seeing that clearly makes mom very happy,â
Cai Xiufen patted her dear daughterâs hand and they entered the main house together.
â¦
In the evening.
The family ate dinner together and gathered in the main house. Captain Kang didnât hide anything and relayed to everyone at home what Kang Li had said in front of Director Wu and the response she had received.
âDad! Did Li Bao⦠really transfer her job to me?â
Kang Guoan was stunned for a long moment, then emotionally overwhelmed, he stared straight at Captain Kang, and upon seeing his own father nod, his voice trembled, âAnd itâs to work in North City?â
âIf I say it, it certainly wouldnât be false.â
Annoyed by his youngest sonâs questioning of his honesty, Captain Kang gave him a stern look.
Kang Guoan scratched his head and chuckled as he explained, âI⦠Iâm just a bit surprised and afraid I heard wrongâ¦â
Captain Kang waved his hand dismissively, âAlright, I know what youâre about to say just by the way you sit.â
To prevent any hard feelings among his other sons, Captain Kang thought briefly and honestly shared the exchange between himself and Kang Li after leaving the Commune; finally, he scanned the room solemnly and said:
âDonât go whispering behind the scenes that Li Bao favors Lao Wu. After all, Lao Wu and Li Bao are twins, inseparable since childhood, both recently graduated from high school,
and since Lao Wu isnât married yet, having him go with Li Bao to North City will mean he can look after her closely. We could rest easier back home, and him going fits well, itâs not that Li Bao disregards you older brothers.â
Clearly, this was addressed to Big Brother Kang and Third Brother Kang.
Because Second Brother Kang was in the military and Fourth Brother Kang had already returned to the county, neither was at home.
âBig Brother, Third Brother, I wonât forget your kindness to me. If thereâs a good opportunity later, Iâll definitely contact you. This time, bringing my little brother to North City, itâs as dad said,
I thought since he hasnât been engaged or has any romantic ties, going with me to North City, he wonât have any distractions and can focus on working. After all, North City is far from here, traveling back and forth isnât easy.â
By saying this, Kang Li merely wanted to avoid any unpleasantness between her brothers and didnât want Big Brother and Third Brother to hold any grudges against her.
Big Brother Kang and Third Brother Kang were not fools; they fully understood what their father and sister meant. They glanced at each other, with Big Brother Kang speaking first:
âLi Bao, you donât have to do this. Dadâs words cleared things up for your Big Brother and Third Brother. Moreover, Lao Wu is our own brother, and we, no matter how reckless, would not compete with our own brother for anything.
Similarly, as our most beloved little sister, how could we blame you for a job? The job is yours to give to anyone you see fit; no one else has a say in that.â
As Big Brother Kang finished speaking, Third Brother Kang eagerly nodded in agreement, âRight, Li Bao, Big Brother is correct, Third Brother has no issues with you passing your job to our fifth brother.â
