Chapter 36: Chapter 36 - 36 36 Kang Li Will Luo Yanqing welcome her

Chapter 36: Chapter 36 Kang Li: Will Luo Yanqing welcome her arrival? Chapter 36: Chapter 36 Kang Li: Will Luo Yanqing welcome her arrival? Of course, even if Kang Li knew about these things, she’d probably just laugh them off and not take them seriously.

Time passed quickly, and one morning, after breakfast, Captain Kang, Big Brother Kang, and Kang Guoan walked out of the house carrying large and small bags.

“Li Bao, you must remember to write home often, you mustn’t forget!”

Even if Cai Xiufen was utterly unwilling to let go, at this moment, she had no choice but to release her beloved daughter’s hand, watching her leave home and head far away to North City.

“Mhm, I will remember.”

Kang Li nodded firmly, took a couple of steps forward, then couldn’t help but stop to look back at her birth mother and the relatives standing at the door to see her off.

“Let’s go, Li Bao!”

Kang Guoan called out to Kang Li.

“I’m coming.”

After replying, Kang Li waved to her birth mother and family, holding back the tears in her eyes, turned around, and followed the footsteps of her little brother Kang Guoan and the others.

They took the village’s ox cart to the town and then switched to a shuttle bus to reach the county city; afterward, Kang Li and her group took a coach to the city.

Since there was no train station in the county city, they had to depart from the train station in the city to head to North City.

The long green train looked quite old-fashioned; at this moment, Kang Li sat by the window, listening to the rhythmic “clang, clang…” sound.

Without a doubt, that sound came from the train wheels striking the tracks.

Gazing through the window at the trees and farmlands moving backwards, Kang Li’s mind involuntarily returned to the photo of Luo Yanqing, and she found it quite incredible for a moment.

A man and a woman, complete strangers, had become husband and wife through just one or two phone calls and a photo, and those one or two calls weren’t even made by the couple themselves.

Thinking thus, a hint of curiosity colored Kang Li’s fox-like eyes: She wondered whether Comrade Luo Yanqing would welcome his new life partner about to enter his life?

And what about Comrade Luo Yanqing’s three children; would they welcome this stranger into their family?

“Li Bao, what are you thinking about?”

Kang Guoan sat beside Kang Li, and seeing that she hadn’t spoken since they got on the train, he couldn’t help asking out of concern.

“I’m wondering what North City is like.”

Kang Li casually responded, her exceedingly beautiful and refined face beaming with a smile: “Are you thinking about it too, little brother?”

Appearing slightly uncomfortable, Kang Guoan cleared his throat and said, “I’ve thought about it, but I can’t imagine what North City is really like.”

“North City must be very big, and certainly very lively.”

As the national capital, North City was naturally both large and bustling. Kang Li said with a smile, “Once we settle down, we must take a good stroll around North City.”

Kang Guoan remained silent.

Kang Li looked towards Captain Kang and Big Brother Kang: “Dad, Big Brother, what do you think?”

“There’ll be plenty of time for strolling later. This trip to take you to North City is mainly about getting you settled in properly and watching your little brother complete his employment procedures at his unit. Afterward, we’ll have to return to our hometown.”

North City was indeed great, but after all, it wasn’t their hometown; everything cost money there. Besides, there were plenty of things to do back home, which wouldn’t allow them to stay in North City any longer than necessary.

“Li Bao, Dad is right. We’ll come back to North City later. You can stroll around as much as you want then. But now, there’s a lot of work to do in the fields back home; we can’t afford the delay,” Big Brother Kang said with a smile. Hearing this, Kang Li puffed her cheeks and gave an “Oh” in response.

“If you want to go out, you can let your little brother take you around when he has time off. But you must remember that you have children to look after and can’t just go out because you feel like it, letting the children come to any harm.”
