Chapter 1694: Chapter 1306_4

"And me too, Mom! Please help me say hi to Dad," Vivi said, looping her arm through Kang Li’s. Vivi’s bright eyes and dazzling smile shone as she added, "Mom, make sure Dad takes care of himself, okay!"

"Alright!"

Kang Li nodded with a smile, then said, "Mom will pass on everything you want to say."

The four walked to the courtyard gate. Kang Li opened the car door and settled into the driver’s seat. Looking out the window, she waved to Min Rui and the other two, "Go home now, I’ll come back early."

"Mom, drive slowly, be careful on the road!"

Vivi waved and called out.

Kang Li heard her and smiled, nodding in response.

She started the car, and before long, drove away under the gaze of Min Rui and the others.

All the way to the research institute, where work had just finished for the day.

"Greetings, Comrade Kang."

"Hello."

"Comrade Kang, are you here to visit Director Luo?"

"Yes."

"Comrade Kang, Director Luo should still be busy. You might need to wait for him in his dormitory."

"That’s fine."

...

After locking the car, Kang Li picked up her travel bag and walked toward Luo Yanqing’s dorm. On the way, whenever people greeted her, she always responded politely with a smile.

"Knock knock knock!"

Kang Li had a key to Luo Yanqing’s dorm room, so even though Luo Yanqing was still in the lab, she could let herself in. Kang Li hadn’t been in the dorm very long when she suddenly heard a knock on the door outside.

"Someone told you I was here, right?"

She opened the door and saw Luo Yanqing standing outside. Kang Li raised her beautiful eyebrows and smiled as she asked.

Luo Yanqing’s eyes couldn’t hide his longing. With a smile at the corner of his lips, he nodded lightly, "Yeah."

"Hurry on in, I brought you something tasty," Kang Li said, grabbing his hand and pulling him inside.

Luo Yanqing closed the door behind him, and in the next moment, he pulled Kang Li into his arms and kissed her hard on the lips.

"Mm..."

Who knew how much time passed, until the kiss finally ended. Luo Yanqing lifted Kang Li in his arms and sat by the bed, letting Kang Li sit on his lap.

"I missed you. So much!"

With his head buried in Kang Li’s neck, Luo Yanqing’s voice was low and hoarse, "The moment I heard you were here, my heart was so happy!"

"I missed you too. The kids miss you just as much as I do. They wanted me to say hi to you. By the way, Ruirui was top of her grade in the end-of-term exams, Hanhan was first in their eighth-grade class, and Vivi came third. Aren’t you proud?"

"Yeah."

"Bun and the others are doing great at home and in kindergarten, not causing me any trouble at all. Every night before bed, they say, ’Mommy, I miss Daddy.’"

"I’m sorry I’m so busy with work, that I can’t be with you all."

"Silly, what’s there to be sorry for? It’s not like I don’t know how busy you are, and the kids know too! It’s just that Bun and the little ones are still young, so they say it out loud when they miss you. Unlike Min Rui and the older kids, who know how to keep it to themselves."

"Do you regret marrying me?"

Luo Yanqing suddenly asked.

At his words, Kang Li lifted her eyebrows, "Why, are you thinking of finding someone else?"

"Never!"

Luo Yanqing tightened his arms around her, his dark phoenix eyes filled with certainty.

"Since you’re not looking for someone else, why ask me that?" Kang Li pretended to be angry, "Tell the truth, are you hiding something..." Before Kang Li could finish, Luo Yanqing sealed her lips with another kiss, and soon, the two of them tumbled onto the bed...

After their passionate lovemaking, Luo Yanqing tidied up for both of them and held Kang Li close, saying, "You came all of a sudden, visiting me is one thing, but is there something you wanted to tell me?"

"That’s my man—so smart!"

Kang Li pinched his handsome nose and whispered, "The day after tomorrow, I’ll be taking the kids and our parents, Grandpa too, back home."

"How long will you be gone?"

Luo Yanqing asked.

"Until around August twentieth." As soon as Kang Li said that, Luo Yanqing replied, "You’re going to be gone that long?"

"You’re working, so whether I go back or not, and how long I stay, shouldn’t have much impact on you, right?!"

Kang Li glanced at him with a laugh, "The kids told you to take care of yourself, so I won’t nag you about it anymore. I’ve told you plenty of times. If you care about us, then look after yourself."

"I will."

Luo Yanqing gently kissed Kang Li’s forehead, his dark eyes full of tenderness and longing, "I wish I could hold you like this forever!"

"Don’t talk nonsense!"

Kang Li laughed softly, "You’re such a rational guy; don’t start saying sentimental things, or it’ll break your image."

"Sentimental or rational, I only know I mean what I say."

Luo Yanqing stroked Kang Li’s back gently, the warmth in his eyes almost drowning her, "Whenever I think that I can’t be with you all the time, can’t help you take care of the kids, I just feel so sorry, so guilty... At the same time, I’m really grateful to Dad and Mom, grateful they can stay by your side. Xiao Li, you really have worked so hard these years!"

"Silly!"

Kang Li hugged him tight, "We’re husband and wife, we’re family. Don’t talk about who’s sorry or who’s worked hard. Compared to what you do for the country, what I do at home is nothing. How could I even call it hard work?"

Luo Yanqing: "It’s not the same."

"How is it not the same?" Kang Li said, "Are you worried I’ll piggyback off your achievements?"

"..."

Luo Yanqing stammered, "Piggyback off me?"

"Isn’t there a saying, ’The medal of honor is half yours and half mine’? You’ve given yourself to national scientific research, so your achievements naturally include my efforts. Do you agree?"

"Yeah."

"So don’t go on about me working hard, or being sorry, or feeling guilty toward me. I’m the woman who quietly supports you from behind, and I’m so proud of it!"

Luo Yanqing: "It’s not the same."

"How is it not the same?" Kang Li said, "Are you worried I’ll piggyback off your achievements?"

"..."

Luo Yanqing stammered, "Piggyback off me?"

"Isn’t there a saying, ’The medal of honor is half yours and half mine’? You’ve given yourself to national scientific research, so your achievements naturally include my efforts. Do you agree?"

"Yeah."

"So don’t go on about me working hard, or being sorry, or feeling guilty toward me. I’m the woman who quietly supports you from behind, and I’m so proud of it!"

Luo Yanqing: "It’s not the same."

"How is it not the same?" Kang Li said, "Are you worried I’ll piggyback off your achievements?"

Luo Yanqing stammered, "Piggyback off me?"

"Isn’t there a saying, ’The medal of honor is half yours and half mine’? You’ve given yourself to national scientific research, so your achievements naturally include my efforts. Do you agree?"

"Yeah."

"So don’t go on about me working hard, or being sorry, or feeling guilty toward me. I’m the woman who quietly supports you from behind, and I’m so proud of it!"
