Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All

Chapter 1030: Chapter 1018

"As long as she can understand, it’s good. I was just worried that Li Bao would fall behind in class since she started school a week later than other students. Now that she can understand, there’s no need for me to ask Little Wu."

Cai Xiufen’s voice was filled with amusement. As she spoke, she asked Luo Yanqing, "How’s your situation at school?"

"It’s going well."

Luo Yanqing replied, stood up, rinsed the peeled potatoes with water for a moment, and then began slicing them. Once he had prepared all the ingredients he needed, he heard Cai Xiufen say, "In less than five minutes, the steamed buns will be ready, and I’ll go check if the porridge is done."

The porridge was simmering on the heater in the living room, while the stove in the kitchen had ribs stewing on it.

Hearing Cai Xiufen’s words, Luo Yanqing nodded and said, "I’ll watch and add firewood to the stove."

"No need, I just added some."

As she said this, Cai Xiufen walked out of the kitchen.

Living room.

Not seeing anyone, Cai Xiufen realized that Min Rui and the others were in their rooms doing homework, so she didn’t disturb them. She lifted the pot lid and saw that the porridge was ready, then casually closed the stove door.

"What are you up to?"

Walking into Kang Li’s study, Cai Xiufen saw her beloved daughter sitting upright at the desk and couldn’t help but ask.

"Reading."

Kang Li turned to look at her mother, "I want to graduate early."

"Why?"

Cai Xiufen looked puzzled.

"I feel like the courses in college are just like that. If I have to study step-by-step with other students, it’s not only a waste of time but also very boring. Besides, graduating early doesn’t mean I won’t continue learning. I can still go to graduate school and even pursue a combined master’s and doctoral program. In short, I won’t stop learning, so you don’t have to worry that I’ll become idle!"

The last sentence was purely Kang Li trying to make her mom happy with a bit of humor.

"Even though I don’t fully understand what you’re saying, as long as you continue studying, I have nothing more to say. But can you do it on your own?"

Seeing the worry in Cai Xiufen’s eyes, Kang Li smiled, "We have Professor Luo at home. Even if there’s something I don’t understand, Professor Luo will definitely teach me. Moreover, I can always ask my teachers at school. Mom, you don’t have to worry about my studies. I promise I will smoothly obtain my graduation certificate!"

"Since you’re so confident, I believe in you." The worry in Cai Xiufen’s eyes faded away. "Alright, continue reading. I won’t disturb you anymore. I’ll call you when it’s time to eat."

Kang Li nodded and watched her mother disappear out of the study room door.

...

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was late spring in April. During this time, Kang Li and Luo Yanqing made it a point to drop off and pick up Min Rui and the other two from school during weekdays.

Of course, they only handled dropping them off in the morning and picking them up after school in the afternoon. After all, Kang Li and Luo Yanqing had tight schedules at noon and couldn’t rush back to take Min Rui and the others home for lunch, then back to school.

However, with their mom’s help, Kang Li and Luo Yanqing didn’t have much to worry about.

It was a Saturday, and with no classes in the afternoon, Kang Li had already decided to head back to the courtyard with Luo Yanqing right after the morning classes.

Unexpectedly, just as the bell for the last class rang, Wang Pan appeared with a pitiful look, "Kang Li..." Without hearing any further, Kang Li packed her books into her arms and stood up, slightly raising her nicely-shaped eyebrows, "What’s up?"

"Can we talk outside?"

Before Kang Li could respond, Wang Pan pulled her to a quiet spot outside the classroom.

"You’re acting like a bullied little wife."
