Luo Yanqing frowned slightly and said, "If they really lose their minds over a couple of idle comments, that’s just how they’ll be for life. If that’s the case, you don’t need to spend any more effort on them."
"What are you talking about?"
Kang Li glared, "There’s a saying: ’With a stepmother comes a stepfather.’ But as this stepmother, I haven’t done anything to the kids, yet as their father, why do you seem to have the tendency to become a stepfather?"
"You are falsely accusing me." Luo Yanqing’s fiery eyes had turned into grievance: "I just don’t want you to raise ungrateful jerks." After a brief pause, Luo Yanqing rolled over to lie back on his side of the bed and drew Kang Li into his arms, saying:
"Even birth mothers don’t treat Luo Mingrui and the others as well as you do. Although I am not home every day to watch, the growth of Luo Mingrui and the others,
and what I’ve seen during my breaks at home, clearly tells me what you’ve sacrificed for the family and for Luo Mingrui and the others. I also know how much you love them,
and as long as they are not heartless or completely wooden, they won’t be swayed by idle comments."
Kang Li nuzzled her forehead against the man’s chest, feeling a warmness in her heart. She gently curved her lips: "But Ruirui and the others are still young, and they’re smart. They’ve known since they were little that I’m not their real mom, so naturally, their personalities might be a bit sensitive.
If I hadn’t given birth to Bun and the others, idle comments wouldn’t impact Ruirui and the others at all. But now the situation is different—there are people who can’t stand others being well and will surely use nasty stepmother remarks to stir things up with our kids, hoping to watch the chaos unfold.
Even if, on the surface, Ruirui and the others aren’t influenced by such gossip, internally they might overthink. They would worry, feel scared, because suddenly having the possibility of losing their happiness after having it could make them anxious, which could easily distract them during their studies."
After Kang Li finished speaking, Luo Yanqing remained silent for a long time.
"Alright then, listen to me—when you return home, clearly express my attitude to Ruirui and the others. Of course, also show your attitude to the kids too. This way, they’ll feel secure, feel loved and will not stumble in their studies or be influenced by others’ opinions."
Kang Li truly cares for Ruirui and the others, truly loves them. There’s no doubt about it. Even with her own Bun and the others now, in her heart, all the kids are the same—they are both hers and Luo Yanqing’s children.
On a broader scale, even for Xiao Loh En, in Kang Li’s heart, there’s no distinction between them and Ruirui.
Children are little angels; they come into this world to be loved. Otherwise, as parents, why bring them into the world at all?
Of course, some children are born under less expected circumstances, but is it their fault?
"Why are you so wonderful?!"
Luo Yanqing sighed lightly as he kissed Kang Li’s forehead.
