Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All

Chapter 1083: Chapter 1069

Wang Pan’s eyes glistened with tears.

"I have to listen in class, and during the break, I’m reading." Kang Li said succinctly, her meaning was obvious—not that she didn’t want to talk to you, but she didn’t have time.

"No." Wang Pan shook her head, she said, "You’re upset with me."

Kang Li frowned, "Why do you say that?"

"You were fine at noon; we went to the bathroom together after class, chatting and laughing. Even in class, when I talked to you, you’d respond occasionally. But this afternoon, you changed... Kang Li, you’re definitely blaming me for not trusting your big brother, right?"

Wang Pan stared into Kang Li’s eyes, trying to clearly see the emotional changes in Kang Li’s gaze.

However, Kang Li’s eyes remained calm and indifferent, showing no signs of abnormality. She said, "You’re overthinking." After a slight pause, she curled her lips into a smile, "If there’s nothing else, I won’t say much more."

Wang Pan’s lips quivered, but she remained silent for a long time.

Seeing this, Kang Li said "Goodbye," then turned and walked away.

Unexpectedly, after standing still for a while, Wang Pan quickly caught up, "Kang Li!" She called out to her again, asking, "You won’t tell your big brother, right?"

Hearing this, Kang Li’s expression became slightly complex. She sighed secretly, and when Wang Pan stood in front of her, she said lightly, "I said I wouldn’t interfere in matters between you and my big brother. I will keep my word."

After saying that, Kang Li was about to walk past Wang Pan, but then Wang Pan asked again, "Why didn’t you talk to me this afternoon?"

"Wang Pan..." Kang Li’s expression was somewhat indescribable. She said, "By the flowerbed, I already told you clearly, and now you’re asking me again. Do you really find my words so unbelievable?"

In fact, Kang Li did have some feelings.

She was very protective, whether before she came to this world or after, she couldn’t tolerate anyone wronging the people she cared about in any way.

And Wang Pan’s lack of trust in Kang Guoan wasn’t actually a big deal. After all, they hadn’t officially started dating and didn’t know much about each other. Suddenly hearing that someone they liked already had someone, and had left both that person and their child, would probably make anyone somewhat doubt Kang Guoan’s character.

But understanding was one thing, Kang Li still felt uncomfortable.

Maybe these feelings would dissipate before long, but right now she wanted to follow her heart; she didn’t feel like chatting and laughing with Wang Pan as usual.

"I..."

Wang Pan wanted to say no, that she did trust Kang Li, but the words just wouldn’t come out.

"See you tomorrow."

Withdrawing her gaze from Wang Pan, Kang Li didn’t hesitate anymore and walked away quickly.

"What happened?"

Back at the small building, as soon as Kang Li stepped into the living room, she heard Luo Yanqing’s voice.

"Didn’t you leave the courtyard this afternoon?"

Placing her textbooks on the coffee table, Kang Li sat on the sofa.

"I stayed in the study reading all afternoon," Luo Yanqing said as he carefully observed Kang Li, "Did something happen?" Kang Li pursed her lips, was silent for a moment, nodded, and with evident irritation in her voice said: "Do you remember my big brother being pestered by a female colleague from his work unit?"

Luo Yanqing pondered for a moment, then said, "Vaguely. I recall the director mentioning it. I wanted to go directly to North City Petrochemical, but the director stopped me at that time. Why, has that female colleague come to Shuimu University to pester your big brother again after all these years?"
