Captain Kang didn’t speak, but from his expression, it was clear he shared Cai Xiufen’s thoughts.
...
As it neared 7 PM, the three large tables of appetizing reunion meals were laid out.
Each table was fully occupied.
"Dad, Mom, I toast you both. Thank you for taking care of Xiao Li and the kids all these years!" Luo Yanqing couldn’t drink alcohol but insisted on toasting Captain Kang and his wife with white liquor.
In his view, using tea as a substitute for liquor showed a lack of sincerity.
"It seems Li Bao hasn’t offended you, and the reason you can’t get along with Li Bao is due to jealousy."
As Kang Guoan spoke, he noticed Wang Pan’s emotions noticeably changed. He paused for a moment and continued, "In your family, you were spoiled by your parents and brothers; you were their treasure. After marrying me,
you found that my sister was not only spoiled by my parents and us brothers but also by sisters-in-law and nephews. You were jealous, so you made trouble out of nothing, saying Li Bao’s concern was her hoping you’ll get sick,
and even claimed she was cursing you. Wang Pan... do you remember you and my sister were not just classmates but friends? If it weren’t for you and my sister being together back then, do you think I would have noticed you?"
"You... don’t tell me you married me because you liked your sister?" Facing Kang Guoan’s emotionless gaze, Wang Pan stared at him: "Kang Guoan, speak up, why aren’t you saying something?"
Lips tightly pursed, Kang Guoan fell silent. After a moment, he said expressionlessly, "Without my sister, I wouldn’t have noticed you. As we got together, I thought you were a bright and cheerful girl,
a bit spoiled but very genuine. But what you said to me today makes me doubt that my initial perception might have been mistaken."
Footsteps approached, and Kang Guoan looked over to see Kang Li drawing near.
"Brother, maybe sister-in-law misunderstood me somehow, I’ll come to talk to her."
