Director Song and Mrs. Qi stood frozen in place.
After a while, Mrs. Qi, with tears welling in her eyes, incredulously said, "You proposed divorce to Li Bao? Yanqing, did Li Bao do something to wrong you, making you want to divorce her?"
"I don’t want to drag her down! A month ago, I suddenly lost my vision at work, thinking it was due to the intense workload. But after a few days... my eyes had problems again while working,
so I went to the hospital for a check-up and was told there was something in my brain... If it turns out to be malignant, I might only live another two to three years, or maybe less... just half a year. If I really go, should Li Bao have to take care of the kids alone?"
Luo Yanqing squatted down, holding his head. The sobs coming from his mouth were both sorrowful and suppressed. He said, "In these years of marriage, I’ve owed Li Bao so much,
how can I... how can I let her keep bearing the burden for the family after I’m gone? She’s only in her twenties, still young, and deserves a better future..."
"Did Li Bao agree to it?"
Mrs. Qi asked.
Director Song stood silently next to Mrs. Qi.
"No." Luo Yanqing shook his head. "Li Bao said to give me a month to think about it. If I still insisted on divorce, she would go through the procedure with me."
Mrs. Qi asked again, "Did Li Bao quarrel with you over this?"
Luo Yanqing shook his head once more.
At this moment, Mrs. Qi looked at Director Song, "Li Bao’s disappearance... it’s most likely intentional."
"That’s the conclusion. We are currently looking for eyewitnesses along the way from the office to the compound these past few days," Director Song said. Seeing Luo Yanqing standing up and preparing to leave the hospital room, he said, "Get back to bed!"
With the commencement of the new school year from elementary to university, Kang Guoan had no mind to sit in the classroom and listen, as his beloved younger sister was missing. These days, he was either out searching for Kang Li or staying by Cai Xiufen’s side, fearing that his mother might get overly anxious.
Kang Yiyang and Kang Yihong also didn’t attend classes, staying by Cai Xiufen’s side, helping to look after Min Rui and the twins, while taking turns going out to search for Kang Li.
As for Xiao Loh En, he was taken home by Elder Loh and his spouse and is now studying at the Shuimu University Affiliated Kindergarten.
To avoid causing more chaos at the compound.
Luo Yanqing let Kang Guoan hit him without trying to fight back.
"Xiao Kang, with Li Bao in trouble, Yanqing is suffering more than any of us. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have vomited three mouthfuls of blood upon hearing Li Bao hadn’t returned to the compound that day, and then fainted at the hospital for three whole days."
