CHAPTER 639: CHAPTER 639: YOU DID GREAT!

"I trust you, and I trust my own heart."

"Those are words I love to hear."

Kang Li smiled, her eyes curving, "Zhou Weimin is two years older than me. He started school late and ended up in the same grade from first grade... Agreeing to his family’s marriage proposal was also because Zhou Weimin and his family didn’t care about my health condition. Plus, since we’re from the same village and everyone knows each other,

my parents thought it better that I marry within Aoli Village rather than somewhere else. That way they could take care of me up close. Since my parents suggested it, and I didn’t dislike Zhou Weimin, I nodded in agreement to the marriage between the two families. But people change, and three years after the engagement, the Zhou family proposed calling it off. Naturally, I didn’t cling shamelessly to the other party."

"You did well! When it’s time to cut ties, do it and avoid the chaos; if you don’t, you will face more difficulties."

"Thanks for the compliment!"

"However, it seems Comrade Zhou might be regretting it."

"What he regrets is none of my business."

"Exactly, Comrade Zhou’s regrets are his own concern, and they have nothing to do with my wife."

Kang Li rested in Luo Yanqing’s arms as she said, "There’s something I’m not sure I’ve mentioned to you before..."

"What is it?"

Luo Yanqing was a bit curious.

Kang Li: "Zhou Weimin’s wife and Comrade Wen’s wife are sisters."

Luo Yanqing: "You’ve never mentioned that."

"They resemble each other quite a bit, about forty to fifty percent. It was only when I went to North City and saw Comrade Wen’s wife that I felt she looked familiar. I was reminded of Educated Youth Su, who was sent down to our village. Later, I overheard the sisters-in-law in our courtyard talking about how Comrade Wen’s wife’s sister had been sent down to the Northwest..."

"That Educated Youth Su seems to not have a very good character."

"A fly does not land on an egg without cracks."

"You’re right."

"Do you remember the woman who stopped me that evening?"

"Hmm."

"Her name is Xu Chunxia, and she used to be a good friend of mine. Honestly, I was sincere in my friendship with her, but Xu Chunxia had ulterior motives and was targeting Zhou Weimin behind my back. I really dislike such people."

"If you don’t like her, just avoid her."

"Water flows downhill, people strive upwards; there’s nothing wrong with wanting a better life, but if someone uses dishonorable means to achieve their goals, it becomes despicable and shameless!"

"Exactly."

"Yet Xu Chunxia seems to think I owe her something. Although I’ve already cut off our friendship, she still begged me to take her out of the village, bring her to North City, and help her find a partner.

To this, I’m speechless. Let alone that getting out these days requires a letter of introduction, and even eating out needs food coupons, just considering my current relationship with her, where does she get the nerve to plead with me?

Does she think I am some kind of saint who will believe everything she says, overflow with sympathy, and fulfill all her wishes?"

At this point, Kang Li scoffed, "But unfortunately, I am neither a saint nor her parent. I have no jurisdiction over her matters, nor do I have the inclination to bother."

Just as Kang Li finished speaking, the courtyard gate started banging "bang bang bang."

Luo Yanqing: "Someone is knocking at the courtyard gate."

Kang Li: "I heard it."

Soon, footsteps were heard inside the hall.

Kang Li: "Dad went to check."

At the courtyard gate.

"Is that you? It’s nearly nine o’clock, why aren’t you asleep at home? What brings you here this late?" Captain Kang opened the gate and seeing Xu Chunxia standing at the doorway, he couldn’t help but frown and ask.

"Uncle Kang, I’m looking for Li Bao."
