Chapter 1692: Chapter 1306_2

Kang Li smiled, "Don’t get cocky now. Even great horses stumble sometimes, and your life is still very long. Just because you topped your grade during your school years doesn’t mean you’ll always be the best at work or in other things in the future."

"Of course, I’m not saying this to discourage you. There’s only one goal: we must guard against arrogance and impetuousness, always look for our shortcomings, and enrich ourselves. We also have to humbly accept others’ advice and treat people with tolerance. Never get smug just because you’ve achieved something and think you’re all that."

"Mom, I’m not proud, and I definitely don’t think I’m great or look down on anyone." Ming Han felt a little aggrieved. He knew his mother wasn’t criticizing him, he understood she was just teaching him how to behave. Still, he couldn’t help feeling a tiny bit sour inside—just a little bit wronged.

"Alright, don’t pretend nothing’s wrong, Mom can see it in your eyes. Our Ming Han is feeling a bit hurt!" Kang Li gently rubbed her son’s head as she spoke softly, "What I just said wasn’t about you doing anything wrong, I was just casually reminding you, sweetheart, no need to feel bad!"

Ming Han hugged Kang Li’s waist and buried his head in her shoulder, shaking it gently. He mumbled, "I’m not feeling hurt, Mom... I know you’re only saying all this for my sake, so I’ll have more solid footing and go farther down the road."

Kang Li hugged her son back, patting his back lightly and chuckling softly, "You’re halfway a grown boy now, even taller than me—can’t keep acting all cute with Mom like this."

Ming Han’s height had been shooting up these past two years—he was already around 175cm, and in another year or two, he’d definitely be over 180cm. By the time he finished high school, he’d surely be past 180cm.

To say nothing of others, Min Rui, Ming Han’s real brother, was already 183cm tall now.

No matter where he stood, he was like a javelin—tall and straight, full of charm. In ancient times, he’d be the epitome of a refined young gentleman.

"I wasn’t being cute."

A little embarrassed, Ming Han slipped out of Kang Li’s arms, turned his head like it wasn’t a big deal, wiped the corner of his eye, and didn’t look at Kang Li. He said, "Mom, Xi Jingyu is waiting for my call. I’ll call him now."

While talking, Ming Han still avoided Kang Li’s gaze. He bent down and pulled out the phone book from the coffee table drawer, casually flipping through it to look for the Xi Family’s landline number.

Since Shuimu University had started summer break yesterday, Bun and his two siblings’ kindergarten was also off. So Captain Kang and Cai Xiufen had gone to stay at the courtyard house for the past two days, and Bun and his siblings had been picked up by Jiang Boya to study with private tutors at the old house. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
