The Kang family returns to their hometown to find it vastly improved with new roads, factories, and a mansion, all funded by Kang Li. Wang Pan is shocked by the scale of the developments and questions Kang Guoan about the source of the wealth, leading to a confrontation. Lin Dan and Yan Rou defend Kang Li, revealing her success as an overseas investor and businesswoman, which further angers Wang Pan.

"Let’s not talk about those killjoys anymore. Coming back to the old home this time, I really had my eyes opened. I never thought Little Auntie was such a straight shooter— in just a year, not only did she get the roads fixed, she also built the factory, the elementary school, and even the Ecological Recycling Park. The most important thing is, the factory is already up and running. Little Auntie really gets things done fast and decisively— I seriously admire her!"

Thinking back to everything she saw and heard after coming back to Aoli Village, Lin Dan genuinely admired Kang Li.

"Big Sis, why do you think the relationship between Little Aunt-in-law and Little Aunt changed? They were clearly friends, but after marrying Little Uncle, she’s obviously grown distant from Little Aunt."

Yan Rou voiced her confusion.

Lin Dan thought for a moment, then said, "Maybe she just can’t stand how much Little Uncle dotes on Little Aunt."

"Does Little Uncle dote on Little Aunt? I haven’t seen it. I feel like Little Uncle treats Little Aunt the same as us younger ones."

Yan Rou frowned a little. "Could it be that Little Aunt-in-law is just too sensitive?"

"What’s she being sensitive about? Little Aunt and Little Uncle are siblings, and honestly, Little Aunt is such a good person— all the elders and the kids in this family, who doesn’t like her? Who wouldn’t want to be good to her?"

Lin Dan said, "Little Aunt is carefree, filial to the elders, cares for us younger ones, and she’s outstanding in her own right— she’s got so much personal charm. If anyone says they don’t like her, as far as I’m concerned, it’s just jealousy, plain and simple!"

After a moment of silence, Yan Rou nodded. "Big Sis, I agree with you on that."

Kang Guoan walked in holding his son, bumped into the three Buns, and then got dragged by the little rascals into Cai Xiufen and Captain Kang’s room. After a few words of chit-chat, he handed the kid to his mom and set him on the heated kang bed. Then, carrying two travel bags, he headed for the room set aside for him and Wang Pan. But before they’d even reached the door, Wang Pan lost her cool: "Kang Guoan, do you think just because we’re in your hometown now, it means you can bully me however you want?"

"Me? Bully you? When did that happen?"

Stopping in his tracks, Kang Guoan looked at Wang Pan. "Aren’t you the one making trouble out of nothing?"

"Who’s making trouble out of nothing? You didn’t tell me anything ahead of time, and that’s why... that’s why I made my own guesses." Wang Pan’s eyes shimmered with tears, her voice choked. "I always knew you regret marrying me. But since we’re already husband and wife, you have to take responsibility for me."

"Can’t you talk properly for once?"

Kang Guoan’s face was cold and grim. "If I really regretted marrying you, I could just tell you I wanted a divorce."

"You want to divorce me?"

Wang Pan only heard half of what he said— her eyes filled with tears in an instant. "Kang Guoan, how can you treat me like this?"

"Big Brother, Fifth Sister-in-law, you’re back?!"

Kang Li came out of her room, just in time to catch Wang Pan and Kang Guoan arguing. She said, "The room’s all set up— if you’re tired, you can go right in, lie down, and rest."

She was trying to give the two of them a way out of their argument.

But, Wang Pan was having none of it. "Our marriage is none of your business!"

Kang Li was taken aback for a second, then said, "Fifth Sister-in-law, the whole family’s going to be busy soon— after all, tomorrow is Grandpa’s big birthday. I hope you don’t let your personal feelings ruin everyone’s mood."

She shifted her gaze back to Kang Guoan. "Big Brother, I’m sure you know the saying: ’Teach your child in public, teach your wife in private.’ If you don’t want Mom and Dad to worry about you, and you don’t want the neighbors to laugh at our family, then whatever’s going on between you and Fifth Sister-in-law, go work it out in private. If there’s a knot, untie it. And don’t let me see Fifth Sister-in-law crying like this again."

"Go take care of your own stuff— I get it."

Kang Guoan nodded, watched Kang Li go downstairs, then kept walking straight toward the room he and Wang Pan were going to stay in.

"Wang Pan, just tell me already— what’s your problem?"

Once the door was closed, Kang Guoan stared straight at Wang Pan.

"I’m not causing trouble."

Wang Pan flat-out denied it.

"Ever since we got married, every time you see my sister, you have to pick a fight with me. Now you just won’t admit it— are you kidding me?" Kang Guoan’s face was cold as he said, "Back in college, you already knew my family was from the countryside. If you looked down on it, why did you still choose to be with me? And besides, if you don’t respect my family, what right do you have to act so wronged in front of me?"

After a brief pause, Kang Guoan continued, "The truth is, you’re jealous of my sister, aren’t you? Jealous that she’s younger than you, that back in the day she not only got into university as the national top scorer, but in a year and a half, got two degrees with perfect scores, then went abroad for further study,

and got two PhDs in under three years. All that makes you insanely jealous. And on top of that, my sister is also a nationally famous athlete— every time she competes, she brings home several gold medals all by herself,
