Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All

Chapter 1356: Chapter 1221:

Feng Lu interrupted Kang Li: "Save your kindness! My future child will not need anyone else’s support!" With the Han family as a backing and Han Bin’s company to inherit, how could her and Han Bin’s child need outsider support—what a joke!

"You shouldn’t speak too soon, after all, life is neither too long nor too short, but who can guarantee they won’t encounter some accidents, and once you need help, Lady Feng, do you think it’s your family you can rely on, or outsiders?"

Okay, Kang Li actually had a different view on the latter part of what she said.

Especially when it comes to money or life matters, blood relatives might not necessarily extend a helping hand, while an outsider might aid out of kindness.

But at this moment, to protect Min Rui’s trio from Feng Lu, Kang Li could only stick to her previous argument, keeping Feng Lu hanging.

Sure enough, Feng Lu lowered her eyes, pondered Kang Li’s words for a moment, then looked up at Kang Li: "Alright, I understand, no matter what, Luo Mingrui and the others are my children; I certainly won’t harm them."

Having received Feng Lu’s assurance, Kang Li stood up and smiled: "It’s great that Lady Feng thinks this way."

Upon hearing this, Feng Lu secretly rolled her eyes, feeling Kang Li underestimated her.

Yes, she didn’t like the three brats she gave birth to and had her own ulterior motives for demanding Luo Mingwei live in the house, but she wasn’t a heartless beast who would harm the three little cubs for no reason!

Kang Li didn’t know Feng Lu’s thoughts; she now followed Feng Lu out of the study, and they walked to the first floor.

"Mom!"

Seeing Kang Li, Luo Mingrui got up from the sofa and called out.

"Mom just wants to have a word with Vivi, and then we’ll go home." With gentle eyes, Kang Li nodded towards the teenager and then turned her gaze to Ming Wei: "Vivi."

She called the young girl.

Ming Wei turned her head to look at him but didn’t say a word.

Kang Li didn’t show any displeasure; she smiled and asked: "Do you want to go home with me and your big brother?"

"I want to stay with my mom." Ming Wei’s attitude was clear. Upon hearing this, Kang Li’s expression remained warm: "Okay." She then turned her gaze to Feng Lu: "Lady Feng, since Vivi wants to stay with you, then let her stay for a while. Before it gets dark, I’ll arrange for the driver to bring Vivi some change of clothes and daily necessities."

"No need, my husband will bring what Ming Wei needs home after work."

Feng Lu refused.

"Vivi was raised a bit spoiled by me, she’s not used to ordinary things." Saying this, Kang Li had already made a decision and then said to Ming Wei: "If you want to go home, just follow your second brother after school to the courtyard, but remember to tell your mom in the morning before school, in case you don’t return here after school in the afternoon, so your mom won’t worry about you."

Listening to Kang Li’s words, Ming Wei’s eyes and nose both felt sour, and her heart felt terrible. Did her mom not want her anymore? Otherwise... why wouldn’t her mom ask her more or want to forcibly take her home?

Kang Li could see the change in Ming Wei’s emotions, but she pretended not to know. It’s not that she was hard-hearted, but that the young girl was stubborn; the more you told her not to do something, the more she wanted to do it. Right now, it was clear the young girl was hiding something from the family and wasn’t listening to advice, insisting on living with her biological mom. So, as her stepmother, she would let her be.

She believed the young girl would have moments when she couldn’t hold it in, and then, without needing to ask much, the little girl would naturally reveal her secrets.

Thinking this, Kang Li walked over to Ming Wei, bent down, and gently rubbed the young girl’s head, her eyebrows curved in a smile: "Listen to your mom, tell your second brother if you want anything, or call me."

She took two hundred yuan from her bag and placed it in the young girl’s hand: "School is starting soon, keep this money for pocket money; don’t worry about registration, mom will handle it for you."

"I don’t want your money!"

Ming Wei held back her tears and tried to return the money to Kang Li but was stopped by her: "Take it. You’re a big kid now; if classmates have birthdays or you want to buy study materials, it’s more convenient to have money on hand."

As she spoke, Kang Li embraced the young girl and gently patted her back, saying: "Mom really misses you, and Bun and the others especially miss their big sister; if you miss them, go home and play with them. By the way, mom brought you a few new clothes this time; I’ll send them all over to you later."
