Chapter 1162: Chapter 1142
Kang Li smiled and started to tell a bedtime story.
Time ticked by, and after a few minutes, Xiao Loh En yawned, closed his eyes, and fell asleep.
"Ruirui, you shouldn’t read for too long at night; it’s bad for your eyes."
Rising from Xiao Loh En’s bedside, Kang Li turned her gaze toward Min Rui. Seeing her eldest still sitting on the bed with a book, she couldn’t help but comment.
"I’m done, going to sleep now."
Marking his place, Min Rui closed the book and placed it beside his pillow.
"Hanhan, what are you thinking about instead of sleeping?"
Her gaze shifted to Ming Han, and Kang Li watched her playful second son with a smile.
"Mom, I’m just about to sleep!"
Ming Han said as he closed his eyes, "Goodnight, Mom, I wasn’t thinking of anything just now!"
"Goodnight."
Sneaky little fox, he must be thinking about playing tomorrow!
Kang Li smiled, shook her head, and left the room.
...
Three days later, Third Brother Kang and Third Sister-in-law Kang arrived in North City; Kang Guoan and Kang Yiyang went to pick them up from the station. Due to limited room at Kang Li’s home, they had to set up bedding in the living room for the night.
However, Kang Li suggested that Third Brother Kang and his wife stay at the courtyard house, but they declined, saying it was just one night and there was no need to trouble themselves.
"Third Sister-in-law, you can sleep in Vivi’s room. I’ll have Vivi sleep in my room, while Third Brother and my younger brother can sleep on the floor in the living room."
"Aunt, I’ll sleep on the floor too."
"Alright, I have no objections."
Kang Li glanced at Kang Yihong and then said, "Let’s all go to bed early. We’ll head out after breakfast tomorrow."
Third Brother Kang and the others all nodded in agreement.
...
As the eastern sky lightened, Kang Li, Third Brother Kang and his wife, Kang Guoan, and Kang Yiyang finished breakfast and left the house.
"Sister Kang Li!"
Just as they reached the courtyard entrance, Kang Li heard Mo Yan’s voice.
"Why didn’t you come in?"
Kang Li approached with a smile and asked.
"I just got here," Mo Yan smiled back. "Are we heading straight to the train station now?"
"Yes," Kang Li nodded and casually asked, "Have you had breakfast?"
Mo Yan replied, "I ate at home before leaving." Then he turned his gaze to greet Kang Guoan and the others one by one.
"We’re planning to visit Second Brother and Second Sister-in-law in G province during this trip."
Upon hearing this, Third Brother Kang and Kang Guoan had no objections.
Of course, Third Sister-in-law Kang didn’t say anything either.
And Kang Yiyang was all for it.
This journey was rather long, especially in the height of summer. To avoid the various smells in the train carriage, as soon as they arrived at the train station, Kang Li took everyone’s documents and bought sleeper tickets without hesitation.
Spending a bit more money meant at least some comfort on the journey.
But even so, traveling over twenty hours by train still felt far from pleasant.
Imagine, in the scorching summer, even in a sleeper carriage, but due to the times’ limitations, there was no air conditioning on the train. In such an environment, once temperatures rose during the day, it was like being in a steamer.
However, the nights were somewhat better.
Opening the window let the night breeze flow in as the train moved, bringing a slight, refreshing coolness.
Arriving at the G-city station, Third Brother Kang and the others followed Kang Li to a hotel to check-in.
After a shower, feeling refreshed, it was time to address food and drink.
Then, with Kang Li leading the way, they strolled around, stopped occasionally, and learned about the clothing, electronics, and other market trends.
"People here conduct their business so openly; it’s really great!"
Kang Yiyang commented while admiring the surrounding skyscrapers and looking at vendors on both sides of the street, holding various clothes, jeans, and electronic products up for sale.
