"It’s good that Li Bao is alright. Last year, Li Bao had asked us to go to North City, but I was sick at the ti and used that as an excuse not to agree with Li Bao. This year, we really should visit our daughter; it’s been over a year, and I dream of Li Bao!"
As she spoke, Cai Xiufen’s eyes couldn’t help but beco a bit sour. She wiped the corner of her eyes and refocused her gaze on Captain Kang, "How about early November? We could set out for North City at the start of November, what do you think?"
Captain Kang thought for a mont, then nodded: "Alright."
North City.
The courtyard.
"Don’t you feel a bit reluctant?"
Luo Yanqing watched Kang Li silently packing his clothes at the bedside and, lost in thought, the words slipped out from his lips with an evident sour tone.
"Huh?"
Kang Li turned to look at the man, her beautiful brows slightly raised: "Reluctant? Of course, I’m reluctant for you to return to the station, but what can that do? Can it keep you here by my side forever or even delay your leaving for a few more days?"
She moved closer to the man, her lovely fox-like eyes gazing directly at him: "Tell , would you give up working for ?"
Luo Yanqing: "..." How was he supposed to answer that?
Clearly he was the one feeling jealous, thinking his little wife seed rather happy about him leaving and not a bit reluctant. Now, being looked straight in the eye by his wife and questioned repeatedly, he suddenly didn’t know what to say.
"See, it’s not that I don’t want you to go that can keep you from going. It’s your own inability to let go of work that makes you leave after only a couple of days each ti. Professor Luo, rember that. Don’t wrongly accuse again!"
Blinking her fox-like eyes, Kang Li said softly with a smile, "If it were even slightly possible, I would definitely hope you could stay at ho for a long ti, pick up and drop off the kids with every day, go grocery shopping with , shop around, walk around the courtyard, do all the things I love to do."
On hearing this, Luo Yanqing instantly felt very guilty. He said, "I’m sorry! Xiao Li, sorry, I can’t be with you all the ti."
"Silly! Why say sorry?! You’re working, contributing to the nation’s technological advancent. There’s nothing to be sorry for." Having said that, Kang Li’s gentle gaze shifted from the man as she continued to pack his clothes.
Unexpectedly, Luo Yanqing suddenly embraced her from behind.
"What are you doing, Professor Luo? I am packing your clothes. Let go quickly, or it will seem rude to make the driver wait too long."
Patting the man’s hand gently, Kang Li’s voice was filled with helpless amusent.
Luo Yanqing: "Don’t want to."
Startled by his words, Kang Li then turned her head to face the man: "Then what do you want?" Her clear and gentle fox-like eyes brimd with unwitting indulgence and pampering: "Tell , what exactly do you want?"
With his lips slightly pursed, Luo Yanqing said nothing for a long while. Just when Kang Li thought he would let her go soon, unexpectedly, he pushed her down onto the bed, leaned over close to her, gave her a light peck on the lips, and deepened the kiss gradually.
But just when there was a noticeable change in the man’s body, his face flushed red, and he quickly got up and left the room.
Soon after, Kang Li heard the sound of running water in the courtyard.
Sitting up, she straightened her clothes and, looking through the window glass toward the courtyard, saw the man standing by the basin, washing his face with cold water.
Well, it wasn’t really washing his face but using the cold water to cool himself down!
Kang Li couldn’t help but chuckle: It’s good you don’t really want to beco a monk!
