Chapter 876: Chapter 876: Provocation
"Hmm?"
Kang Yiyang responded.
Kang Li: "Lin Dan also took the college entrance exams this year, her scores passed the undergraduate cut-off line, you know that, right?"
Kang Yiyang was silent. Moments later, he let out a "Hmm".
"You know?"
Kang Li confirmed, at the same time her eyes, clear as a fox’s, filled with amusement, it seemed this rascal was finally catching on!
Kang Yiyang softly "hmm"ed again.
"So what do you think?"
Kang Li lowered her voice: "Let me be honest with you, if you’re really not interested in Lin Dan, I’m planning to set her up with your uncle!" She was clearly trying to provoke Kang Yiyang.
On the other end of the line, Kang Yiyang remained silent for a while.
Kang Li: "You have no objections, right?" Indirectly urging Kang Yiyang, to see what decision he would make.
"Aunt, Comrade Lin Dan... Comrade Lin Dan likes me..."
"I know, but what does that matter? If you’re not interested in Lin Dan, there’s no reason to stop your uncle from meeting her, right? Who knows, Lin Dan might really become your aunt someday, after all, feelings are a curious thing..."
"Aunt!"
Kang Yiyang’s voice came through the phone, he undoubtedly interrupted Kang Li, saying: "I can’t make any promises right now, but I don’t mind the two of us trying to date. However, Aunt, please don’t tell Aunt Wu Yue about this, I want to let things take their natural course."
Kang Li stifled a laugh and responded: "Okay, Aunt understands."
"Aunt, say hi to grandma, uncle-in-law, and Ruirui for me."
"No problem."
"If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up then?"
"Go ahead, bye."
"Bye, Aunt!"
Kang Yiyang made this call in the guardhouse of the Cultural Work Troupe.
The landline phone was placed on the windowsill, a shared phone for troupe members to contact the outside.
After paying, Kang Yiyang headed towards the rehearsal room, unexpectedly running into Lin Dan on the way.
Both of them stopped simultaneously, standing two to three yards apart facing each other.
With a slight press of his lips, Kang Yiyang took the first step, watching as the distance between them gradually closed; Lin Dan couldn’t help but get nervous, her cheeks flushed, and her gaze evasive, not daring to meet Kang Yiyang’s eyes.
"Congratulations!"
Standing two steps away from Lin Dan, Kang Yiyang noticed she seemed dazed as if she didn’t understand what he said. Finding her a bit cute, he couldn’t help but curl his lips and said: "Congratulations on getting into university!"
"...You, you knew?"
The surprise caught her off guard, and Lin Dan didn’t know how to react.
Kang Yiyang nodded: "Hmm."
Lin Dan’s eyes immediately curved into a smile: "Same to you! Your score is higher than mine, Comrade Kang Yiyang, you’re impressive!"
"You’re impressive too!"
Kang Yiyang chuckled and said: "I have a song that still needs some practice, see you."
"...Bye, Comrade Kang Yiyang, bye!"
Waving her hand, Lin Dan held back her excitement and joy, watching Kang Yiyang’s back: "Bye, Comrade Kang Yiyang!" Unable to hold it in, she shouted once more.
Kang Yiyang had already walked two or three meters away when he heard the joy in Lin Dan’s voice. He turned back, smiled at her: "Goodbye." Then, he turned back around and continued walking with his long strides.
Lin Dan didn’t pull her gaze back until Kang Yiyang’s figure disappeared from view, revealing a silly grin afterward.
A moment later, she took off running towards Commander Lin’s office.
"Knock knock knock! Knock knock knock!"
The knocking was urgent but carried a light-hearted tone. Lin Ping was somewhat puzzled; he set down the newspaper in his hand, crossed his fingers lightly on the desk before him, and looked towards the door: "Come in."
