Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All Chapter 1794 - 1331: Kang Li Gets Straight to the Point

"Our Li Bao is a real celebrity around here."

Cai Xiufen’s tone was full of pride.

Captain Kang: "Best not say that everywhere."

Cai Xiufen didn’t reply: "Why not?"

"Li Bao mostly doesn’t like hearing that."

Captain Kang said, "You know it as well as I do, Li Bao’s never liked being in the spotlight."

"I know, but it’s not like I go around shouting to everyone my daughter’s a celebrity. I was just mentioning it to you offhand."

Cai Xiufen said, a little annoyed, "I’ve lived with you all these decades, and in your mind, am I someone who loves showing off?"

Captain Kang: "Go to sleep."

Cai Xiufen: "You better explain yourself, or neither of us is sleeping tonight."

"Alright, I never said you liked showing off."

Captain Kang sighed, "Our family’s been in the limelight in the village all these years thanks to Li Bao. Especially this year, Li Bao paid to build that long main road, opened a factory, set up an eco-park, built an elementary school for the village,

fixed the village roads, and built us a three-story house this big. Outwardly, nobody in the village says anything bad about us, but who knows what they say behind our backs? If you run around saying Li Bao is a celebrity or whatever, someone might say our whole family is getting conceited, and that wouldn’t be good for Li Bao."

Hearing this, Cai Xiufang fell silent. After a while, she said, "You’re right, but let me stress one thing: I never wanted to be someone who shows off."

Her kid’s got real talent—she doesn’t need to brag, everyone already knows. After all, nobody else is as amazing as Li Bao from her family!

Scored a perfect score in the college entrance exam, finished two majors in a year and a half—all with perfect scores, then went abroad and got two doctorates in less than three years, came home straight as a top university professor.

And in sports, grabbed several gold medals by herself.

Investments? Never lost.

Started companies, opened factories—every venture booming.

Promised to build a big road for the hometown... and made it happen!

Never fussed over money, sharp-minded, every single thing done with heart—truth is, Cai Xiufang genuinely feels proud to have Kang Li for a daughter.

...

"You already said Li Bao is basically giving you brothers money, so why bother asking what I think?"

Elder sister-in-law Kang glared at Big Brother Kang, annoyed: "We’ve already got several hotpot restaurants in North City, busy ’til our feet barely touch the ground. Now that Li Bao’s handed us a chance to make real money, why wouldn’t we grab it?"

"I get it, you mean we should wait to open in other cities."

Big Brother Kang didn’t get upset from the scolding, just smiled: "Alright, I’ll do as you say."

But Elder sister-in-law Kang rolled her eyes: "What do you mean ’do as I say’? Don’t you have your own opinion? Li Bao’s so good, she knows we’ve got a bunch of boys in the family and wants us to make more money. And you—acting aloof in front of Li Bao, treating her kindness like it’s useless—honestly, I don’t know what to say to you!"

"I wasn’t acting aloof."

Big Brother Kang sat cross-legged facing Elder sister-in-law Kang, shaking his head: "Li Bao told us brothers and you sisters-in-law to decide together."

"Alright, you don’t need to explain any more. Tomorrow I’ll see how much we can cough up, then ask Li Bao how to buy in. That’s that! As for opening more shops in other cities, we’ll push it off by half a year or eight, nine months. It’s not a big deal."

Elder sister-in-law Kang said, taking off her coat and laying it on the quilt: "Sleep. New Year’s just around the corner, got plenty to do at home these days."

"Mm."

Big Brother Kang responded, "Check what we need to buy tomorrow, and remember to have Kang Yichen make a list."

Kang Yichen is Big Brother Kang’s second son.

"Got it."

Elder sister-in-law Kang replied, then crawled under the covers.

In the other room, He Hui and Kang Guosheng (Second Brother Kang) had already been lying down for a while, chatting quietly.

"Li Bao treats you brothers so well!"

That was He Hui’s voice.

"Treats us well, but isn’t she treating you sisters-in-law well? Isn’t she good to all our rowdy boys across the families?"

Kang Guosheng chuckled: "Li Bao’s got real ability. Us brothers get to shine because of her. Thinking about it, I actually feel pretty proud—don’t you?"

"You just like showing off!"

He Hui laughed, "Showing off you’ve got an awesome little sister, an extraordinary little sister, a little sister everyone envies. But don’t forget, I’ve got a fantastic sister-in-law too, a truly outstanding sister-in-law, one everyone envies, a sister-in-law as lovely as a Fairy Girl!"
