Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All

Chapter 1431: Chapter 1240: 3

Jiang Boya shook his head. "Not really. I just heard the kids say kindergarten is boring, that the other kids there are all so childish, so I thought I’d find some time to talk to you."

Kang Li: "And now? Dad, do you still have anything to say to me?"

"You’re right, your dad has no objections." Jiang Boya smiled. "Bun and the others have learned a ton with their private tutors. Right now, they’ve already mastered three foreign languages. Also, Bun likes to listen to topics related to biology, Tangyuan is very interested in finance, investment, and IT, and as for Guoguo, I have a feeling she might go into medical research in the future."

"Dad! Aren’t you exaggerating a bit?!"

Kang Li shook her head, helplessness in her eyes. "I can believe Bun and the other two have already mastered three foreign languages, but they’re just Little Beans right now. How can you already be so sure about what paths they’ll take in the future?"

"Would your dad lie to you? The private tutors your grandfather and I hired for the kids aren’t just one or two, and they’re definitely not mediocre people."

"I know, I know, all the people you hired are well-known and accomplished scholars in their fields, and you even formed an education team to teach Bun and the others. But kids are kids. Can we maybe not go overboard?"

"You’re going to be the death of me! The learning ability and creativity of geniuses aren’t something ordinary people can imagine. You yourself are very smart—don’t you know that?"

Seeing Jiang Boya looking a bit sulky like a child, Kang Li cleared her throat and instantly put on a serious face. She said, "Fine, it’s my fault. Whatever Dad says is right!"

"Perfunctory."

Jiang Boya snorted in a tsundere way.

"No, absolutely not." Kang Li waved her hand. "Dad, if you don’t believe me, look into my eyes." Seeing Jiang Boya’s gaze come over, Kang Li pointed at her eyes. "See? They’re filled to the brim with sincerity!"

Jiang Boya was slightly stunned, then reacted, and her clowning made him burst out laughing.

"That’s more like it. My dad looks the best when he’s smiling, like a flower-boy. I can’t even look away for a second." Kang Li said this while propping her chin in both hands, her bright eyes blinking, full of intoxicated admiration.

Hearing this, Jiang Boya glared. "You little brat, even your own dad you dare tease, you really don’t know your place!" But inside he was overjoyed. Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, he couldn’t help laughing again.

Kang Li, however, changed faces like Sichuan opera, straightening her expression. "As long as Dad is happy."

He was still laughing when, upon hearing Kang Li’s words, the smile on Jiang Boya’s face stalled for a second, then the laughter in his throat grew louder. "I’ve never seen a quirky girl like you!"

"Dad, you’re wrong. I’m almost thirty already; I’m no little girl anymore."

To keep her bargain‑dad happy, Kang Li still pretended to be solemn.

After laughing his fill, Jiang Boya cleared his throat and said, "How are you not a little girl? In your dad’s eyes, my daughter will always be a little girl."

Although that woman Fang Sumei was really nothing to brag about, he had to admit one thing: she gave him a wonderful daughter, the best daughter in the world!

Smart, considerate, and understanding. Ever since he reunited with his daughter, he hadn’t had a single bad day. She often made him laugh out loud.

It felt so carefree, as if all worries had disappeared.

Kang Li: "As long as Dad is happy."

"You girl..."

Jiang Boya was out of words. He was afraid that no matter what he said, his precious daughter would just reply, "As long as Dad is happy."

Unexpectedly, just as he decided not to say anything, Kang Li casually brought something up: "Dad, Ruirui and Hanhan and Vivi’s biological mother’s surname is Feng. She’s Lady Fang’s stepdaughter."

"..."

What a coincidence?

For a moment, Jiang Boya was stunned.

"I never told you, and I myself only found out after I came back to the country... Ruirui and his siblings’ biological mother faked her death more than ten years ago, changed her name and identity, and ran off to live in another city..."

Just as Kang Li was about to go on, Jiang Boya suddenly cut her off. "Wait a second!" His brows were almost knotted together. "Faked her death? Luo Yanqing knows about this, right?"

"Yeah."

Kang Li nodded.

Jiang Boya: "He didn’t tell you at first, did he?"

"He told me later."

Hearing this, Jiang Boya’s expression cooled. "So that means, in all those years when that woman had already reappeared in public, Luo Yanqing never told you his ex‑wife had faked her death." His tone was flat, stating a fact.

"Don’t be mad. This is Luo Yanqing’s private business. He had his reasons for not telling me. I’m only bringing her up with you now because I happened to think of her connection with Lady Fang and couldn’t help mentioning it."
