Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All novel Chapter 1456

Chapter 1456: Chapter 1246:

Her heart clenched. She forced the smile on her face to look as natural as possible and greeted Kang Li, "Xiao Kang, are you here to see me about something?"

Sure enough, when Kang Li walked out of the yard gate, she headed straight toward where Loo Ping was standing. Her expression was as calm as ever, not showing the slightest abnormality.

"Nothing serious. I just wanted to have a casual chat with Teacher Loo."

There was no doubt that when Captain Kang came home, he told Kang Li what Su Man, Loo Ping, and the other two women had said. It wasn’t that a grown man like him wanted to stir up gossip in front of his precious daughter, it was that he really couldn’t swallow the fact that his son-in-law and grandchildren were being talked about.

If he weren’t a man, he absolutely would have gone up and argued with those women himself. But reality meant he couldn’t step in, so he could only bring his three little grandchildren home and repeat what he’d heard.

Originally, Cai Xiufen had also wanted to go out and argue, but Kang Li stopped her. She didn’t want to drag her own elderly mother into the mess of her small household, especially when there was a fair chance it might get physical later. If her mother were accidentally hurt, that would be far from ideal.

Who knew that as soon as she stepped out of the yard, Kang Li would only see Loo Ping standing alone outside the gate, apparently about to turn around and go home. She couldn’t help wondering: did they all get scared of her, know she’d be coming out, so they each slipped away one by one?

With that doubt in mind, Kang Li walked over and stopped two steps away from Loo Ping.

"You... you’re a well-known university professor. What could a primary school teacher like me possibly have to chat with you about?!" Loo Ping gave an awkward smile, not even quite able to meet Kang Li’s eyes.

Kang Li’s lips curved. She smiled. "I know that from yesterday to today, more than one person in our compound has been talking nonsense about my family. I imagine Teacher Loo has heard something as well, but that whole thing is completely fabricated,

it’s slander. Hanhan and Vivi’s father has gone to the school in person to deal with it, and the school gave a handling result as of yesterday at noon when classes let out,

and the students who started and spread the rumors have all apologized to my Hanhan and Vivi, and the parents who started and spread the rumors have apologized to my husband. Telling you all this, Teacher Loo, I don’t mean anything else,

I just want to ask that if anyone brings it up in front of you again, please tell them that spreading rumors and defamation carry legal responsibility. If they don’t know the truth, they’re welcome to go to the middle school where Hanhan and Vivi study and ask the school leaders directly."

With a faint smile at the corner of her mouth the whole time, Kang Li’s tone was neither humble nor arrogant. It sounded flat enough, but when it landed in Loo Ping’s heart, it felt like a drumstick pounding again and again.

"All right, I understand." Teacher Loo forced a smile. "Don’t worry, I’ll tell them exactly what you said."

Kang Li said, "Then I’ll trouble you, Teacher Loo!"

Her clear eyes seemed to be smiling, but the smile never reached their depths. Kang Li didn’t avoid looking at Loo Ping at all. Then she shifted her gaze and quietly stared at Wen’s family’s tightly closed double courtyard doors for a long moment, then said, sounding casual:

"Teacher Loo and Comrade Su seem to be quite close. If it’s convenient, I’d also like to ask you to pass my words on to Comrade Su sometime today.

It’s nothing but an ordinary sentence." Loo Ping’s heart thumped twice, and the next second, she quickly shook her head and said, "I can help, I can help. I happened to have something to talk to Xiao Su about anyway, I’ll pass it on for you while I’m at it."

Maybe if she lent a hand this time, her husband could get transferred by Director Luo into his project team!

As her thoughts turned, Loo Ping unconsciously relaxed. She said, "Xiao Kang, go do whatever you need to do. I’m heading over to Xiao Su’s place now to sit for a bit."

Kang Li nodded. "Thank you." With that, instead of walking back toward her own gate, she turned and headed for the Song Family’s.

...

Wen’s family.

Su Man was standing in the yard. To be precise, after closing the courtyard gate, she’d wanted to see whether Kang Li would come out to confront her, so she simply stood behind the door, listening to the sounds outside.

Because of that, she’d heard most of Kang Li’s conversation with Loo Ping, as well as what Loo Ping and the other two women said after Su Man left. Maybe not every single word, but enough to get the gist.

Right now her complexion didn’t look good. Hearing footsteps outside, followed by knocks on the door, she couldn’t help feeling annoyed at Loo Ping, thinking she had no eye for people. After all that, she still overlooked their previous issues and tried to make up, only to be treated like a clown by the other woman. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢
