"Sister... you really misunderstood me. There’s nothing between me and Brother-in-law, and besides, there are plenty of people in this world who look alike. You can’t just blame me because Brother-in-law took a photo with another woman..."
With a face swollen like a pig’s head, Su Man cried hysterically.
"You think I’m blind?" Su Qing raised the photo again. "Everyone, take a good look and help me see if the scumbags in this photo are really my husband and my sister!"
Zhou Weimin’s face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
Suddenly, Su Man knelt in front of Su Qing: "Sister! I’m begging you, please don’t do this to me, okay? The woman in the photo really isn’t me. If you don’t believe that there are people who look alike, just take a look at that kid Luo Mingrui next door and Teacher Shen’s husband Xiao Jin from our courtyard. They aren’t father and son, but they look alike..."
"Mom, you’re really overpraising that person. Someone like him representing the face of our Aoli Village?" Kang Li chuckled and shook her head, comforting Cai Xiufen, "It’s not just about how people from neighboring villages would see it; my dad would never take him seriously."
Captain Kang glanced at his precious daughter, his expression somewhat helpless, but he didn’t say anything.
Yet Cai Xiufen didn’t let Captain Kang off the hook. She asked, "Don’t you have anything to say?"
"What can I say?" Captain Kang’s tone was flat: "That Zhou family’s boy did such a thing, it’s a disgrace to himself and his family, and it has nothing to do with our village."
Cai Xiufen: "You make it sound so easy. What if people find out that bastard came from our village and he was once engaged to our Li Bao? Wouldn’t that ruin Li Bao’s reputation?"
"You’re overthinking it. He’s him, and Li Bao is Li Bao; my daughter has nothing to do with him."
Captain Kang thought his wife was purely overthinking.
"Mom, Dad is right, you’re indeed overthinking. Not to mention I now have my own family, and Luo Yanqing and I have a harmonious marital relationship. Just by my current status,
there’s no chance for me to interact with that person, so how could he tarnish my reputation? Besides, your daughter isn’t a pushover; if he dares to make false connections, I’ll show him why flowers are so red."
Luo Yanqing also said: "Mom, I’ve got this, I won’t let Xiao Li suffer any grievances."
"Alright, alright, it’s me who’s overthinking it. I’ll put my heart at ease by listening to you all." Cai Xiufen pretended to be displeased, glancing at Captain Kang and Kang Li both. Then she said, "So tell me, what exactly is that bastard thinking, getting involved with his wife’s sister? Isn’t he afraid his wife will find out and divorce him?"
"Seeking thrills, holding onto a lucky mindset, it’s that simple." Kang Li almost blurted it out without thinking.
Seeing her parents and Luo Yanqing looking at her, Kang Li awkwardly coughed a couple of times and asked: "Why are you all looking at me like that?"
Her parents remained silent, while Luo Yanqing softly uttered: "Seeking thrills?"
"That’s what I think. Is there a problem?" Kang Li looked innocent, tilting her head at Luo Yanqing, "Once the wallet’s filled, yet never seen much of the world, a slight temptation from bad elements can easily lead you astray."
Luo Yanqing: "..."
"You better believe it, my intuition tells me that guy’s mostly just looking for excitement. But if you dig deeper, it’s probably because he has issues of character; otherwise, he wouldn’t do something so despicable and shameless."
To Kang Li, Zhou Weimin was no more than a dung beetle, clearly not much, yet feeling good about himself. Men like him, if it was before Kang Li crossed over to this world, he wouldn’t even have a chance to show his face in front of her, let alone get close.
In short, Zhou Weimin was nothing to Kang Li.
So naturally, he wasn’t on her radar.
Because of this, when Kang Li spoke of Zhou Weimin now, her expression was quite natural, and her tone calm, without any emotion, like discussing a common occurrence.
"I believe you, I believe everything you say."
Luo Yanqing’s mouth curled into a smile, his gaze extraordinarily gentle.
