Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All

Chapter 1813: Chapter 1335: Can I Ask You a Personal Question? (4)

Min Rui: "My dad and my mom are great. I don’t want anyone or anything to trouble them."

"Don’t worry. Since I promised you, I won’t go back on my word."

Xiao Jin said warmly, "Your dad and your mom really are wonderful parents. To be their child, you’re very lucky."

"I really am happy to be my parents’ child. They gave me love from both a father and a mother. They take great care of me, both in life and in my studies. They’ve never let me or my younger siblings suffer even a little bit. When we’re bullied, they come forward for us and help us get justice. If they know we’re troubled about something, they’ll talk with us in private, so that it doesn’t affect our studies.

Especially my mom, she put the most effort into us kids. Ever since we were little, she’s nurtured us in all sorts of ways—not just spending time, but personally teaching us.

She knew my dad couldn’t always be with us because of work, but she never complained, and she told us we should understand my dad.

All my life, I’ve never seen my parents quarrel or even raise their voices at each other. For so many years, they’ve really been the kind of parents kids should learn from, and they’ve fulfilled their responsibilities as parents!"

Xiao Jin felt a little sour inside, but he had to accept what Min Rui was saying.

Because Min Rui’s excellence was plain to see, and Ming Han, Vivi, and Bun were all outstanding kids too.

Obviously, for kids to be this amazing, to be "other people’s children" in everyone’s eyes, they must have parents who raised them well. In other words, these kids have a pair of extremely outstanding and competent parents!

And him?

He considered himself a good father, but he had to admit he was no match for Comrade Luo—let alone Comrade Kang Li.

...

"If Ruirui wasn’t getting discharged tomorrow, were you planning to just keep hiding this from me and your dad?"

Kang Li got home and gently brought up Min Rui’s act of bravery. At the end, she revealed that Min Rui would be discharged early the next morning. After listening, Cai Xiufen and Captain Kang went from nervous to angry, staring at Kang Li for a while before Cai Xiufen voiced her displeasure.

"You should have told me and your mom from the start."

That was Captain Kang’s voice.

"I was just afraid you’d get worked up and something would happen! Honestly, I never planned to hide it forever. The idea was to wait till Ruirui was stable, then drop a hint, so you wouldn’t worry."

Kang Li chuckled.

"So you mean you did it for mine and your dad’s sake?"

Cai Xiufen said irritably, "Are we really so fragile that just hearing Ruirui’s in trouble would make us faint or drop dead right on the spot?"

"Mom, what are you saying?"

Kang Li was flustered and pretended to be upset: "I was genuinely worried you’d be anxious, and I didn’t want anything to happen to you, so I thought I’d keep it from you for a bit."

Cai Xiufen: "Fine, fine, you meant well."

Captain Kang: "Did the doctor confirm Ruirui can be discharged tomorrow?"

"Yep. Before I came home, the doctor checked on Ruirui and said we could do the discharge paperwork tomorrow."

Kang Li said, "Ruirui’s recovering well and is in good spirits."

Guoguo: "Is big brother in a lot of pain?"

Kang Li: "It hurt a bit at first, but it’s much better now."

"Before your mom said anything, you and your second brother already knew about your big brother being in the hospital, right?"

Cai Xiufen asked Vivi, but didn’t wait for her to answer. She went on: "That night your mom was late coming home, I told you to call and ask her where she was, and then you..."

Vivi acted cute, cutting off Cai Xiufen: "Grandma, don’t be mad! My mom really wasn’t trying to hide it from you and Grandpa. She was really just afraid you’d get so upset over Big Brother’s accident that something would happen. Please don’t be mad at my mom, okay?"

"How could I dare to be mad at your mom? She’s got guts, really knows how to keep things from me and your grandpa." Cai

Xiufen said, glancing at Kang Li and letting out a cold humph.

Captain Kang: "Alright, Ruirui ended up okay in the end. We should feel grateful and stop picking on Li Bao."

"You’re always spoiling your daughter!"

Cai Xiufen glared at Captain Kang, then looked at Kang Li: "In the future, no matter what happens, don’t you dare hide it from me and your dad. Otherwise, see how I settle the score with you!"

"I promise I won’t dare. From now on, even the tiniest matter, I’ll tell you and Dad."

Kang Li grinned: "Please, Empress Dowager, trust your loyal subject—I’ll absolutely keep my word!"

Hearing Kang Li, Ming Han, Vivi, and Bun all stifled their laughter.

Captain Kang just looked helpless.

Cai Xiufen was halfway between annoyed and amused, glaring at Kang Li: "Does our family even have a throne?"

Empress Dowager? This girl is always up to something!

"If you imagine it in your heart, then you have everything! Dad, isn’t that right?"

Kang Li smiled, looking at Captain Kang.

Unexpectedly, Captain Kang said, "I’ve never been one for daydreams."
