Chapter 926 - 924:
Chapter 926: Chapter 924:
"What did Dad and Big Brother say?"
With such a big issue in the house, Kang Li didn’t believe her father had no ideas.
"Dad couldn’t get anything substantial out of that scoundrel’s mouth, so he threw the ball to me and your brother, telling us to handle it." Elder sister-in-law Kang cleaned up Kang Li’s dishes, wiping away the water stains, and said with a furrowed brow: "I think Kang Yihong is hell-bent on raising someone else’s child!"
Kang Li was taken aback for a moment, then chuckled and said: "There’s definitely something hidden here, I’ll go and ask Yihong in a while."
"There’s nothing left to do in the kitchen, why don’t you go and ask him now? We’ve been eating and sleeping poorly these days, almost worried to death by that scoundrel!"
Elder sister-in-law Kang was truly worried and agitated. As she spoke, she pushed Kang Li out of the kitchen: "That scoundrel listens to you the most, maybe you can get something out of him."
"That’s not necessarily true. Yihong is all grown up now, if he doesn’t want to talk, I have no way to make him." Kang Li chuckled, then waved her hand at elder sister-in-law Kang, before stepping out to find Kang Yihong.
"Knock knock knock!"
Standing outside the door, Kang Li knocked with her knuckles.
But there was no response from inside the room.
"Knock knock knock!"
Kang Li knocked again, and called out to Kang Yihong: "It’s Auntie, aren’t you planning to open the door for me?"
"Auntie?"
Kang Yihong’s voice came out, though it carried a trace of uncertainty.
"It’s me." Kang Li coughed lightly twice: "You didn’t know I came home today? Kang Yihong, don’t let me down, hurry and open the door for me now."
As soon as she finished speaking, the door was pulled open from the inside, and Kang Yihong looked at Kang Li: "Auntie."

"Hmm."
Kang Li responded, and walked into the room.
"Tell me, what mischief have you been up to at home lately?"
Sitting down in the chair, Kang Li glanced up at Kang Yihong: "Don’t try to fob me off with the excuses you give your parents and your grandpa."
Pressing his lips together, Kang Yihong was silent for a long while. He met Kang Li’s calm and unwavering gaze, and spoke: "I can’t say."
Kang Li frowned: "What do you mean?"
Kang Yihong: "Auntie... I’m bound to get married eventually, so why can’t I marry Educated Youth Yan now?"
"It’s not that the family doesn’t allow you to marry, is it?" Kang Li stared at Kang Yihong: "Your grandpa and your parents just don’t want you to play the role of a father, don’t want you to raise someone else’s child!"
"The child is mine."
Kang Yihong avoided Kang Li’s gaze, mumbling.
"Look me in the eye and say that again, and tell me when you and Educated Youth Yan got together."
That scoundrel is really stubborn. He’s obviously guilty, but insists the child of Educated Youth Yan is his. Could it be that he truly likes her, so he doesn’t mind that she’s carrying someone else’s child, willing to be the scapegoat without regrets?
"Auntie... I swore an oath, can’t you stop forcing me?"
Kang Yihong’s expression showed his struggle and helplessness. He said: "Educated Youth Yan is a good girl, I like her and want to marry her, this is my most genuine thought."
"I see," Kang Li’s lips curved into a faint smile: "Because Educated Youth Yan is pretty, you fell for her, willingly help raising Educated Youth Yan’s child. And for the sake of Educated Youth Yan’s reputation and her unborn child, you swore to her not to tell the family the truth, isn’t that right?"
Though it sounded like a question, Kang Li was actually using a declarative tone.
Kang Yihong froze upon hearing this.
"Seems like I hit the nail on the head." Kang Li had a smile on her lips, asking: "Are you sure you won’t regret it in the future?"
"No."
Kang Yihong shook his head decisively.
"What is the current situation with Educated Youth Yan? You must know you’ve already gotten into college, what about her?"
Facing Kang Yihong’s eyes directly, the smile in Kang Li’s eyes faded, her gaze was clear, as if it could see into the heart.
After a long silence, Kang Yihong said: "Educated Youth Yan didn’t pass."
"Where’s her family? Who else is in her household? Has she informed her relatives about you and her in a letter? And does the biological father of the child in her womb know of its existence?"
Kang Li looked serious, firing three questions in succession, waiting for Kang Yihong to answer.
And Kang Yihong’s expression subtly shifted, though it was all caught by Kang Li.
"Educated Youth Yan is from North City, her family’s affairs I don’t know..."
Kang Yihong spoke, but soon fell silent.
Kang Li: "Keep going."
"I..."
Kang Yihong’s lips moved, unsure of what to say next.
