Chapter 618: Chapter 618
Kang Junjia and his son Kang Baojun, as well as Lin Jiale, these three individuals noticed that today’s foggy weather was suitable for going out without attracting attention.
As the trio exited through the grand gate of Kang Baojun’s private villa, they looked around the road and saw no people or vehicles. Kang Baojun turned around and gestured for his own family’s private car parked behind to come forward, ready to get in and head to Director Liu’s home.
The driver brought the car out from the courtyard. Kang Baojun opened the door, and Kang Junjia prepared to get in first.
At this moment, suddenly a rustling sound, like some stealthy figure, emanated from the greenery next to the villa’s entrance.
All three were startled.
When they turned around and saw who it was, Kang Baojun was the first to clutch his chest, complaining, "Are you trying to scare me to death?"
The sneaky figure emerging from the greenery turned out to be Kang Baojun’s wife, Xiao Shulan.
That his own daughter-in-law could find this place left Kang Junjia somewhat surprised. He wondered who had leaked the address, worrying if even his own principal wife knew about it.
Xiao Shulan approached and walked straight toward Kang Baojun.
Lin Jiale automatically stepped aside. He definitely would not interfere in the affairs between husband and wife.
Kang Baojun, with a slight frown and an unhappy expression, pulled at his tie, impatiently asking Xiao Shulan, "How did you get here?"
"You’re asking me how I got here?" Xiao Shulan’s tone was equally impatient, her finger pointing animatedly at herself, then at Kang Baojun. For more chapters visıt 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚•𝕟𝕖𝕥
Anyone could see she was not in a good mood. But anyone could also understand why she was upset, as her following words made clear.
"Impressive, Kang Baojun, you and your father indulge yourselves, leaving your family behind—" Xiao Shulan’s eyes swept over to Kang Junjia sitting in the car, her gaze filled with utter contempt.
You can know a person’s face, but not their heart. She used to think that her father-in-law, a well-respected businessman in social circles, understood the importance of dignity in his lifestyle.
To her shock, during a time of crisis, when the whole family faced danger, he had actually taken refuge in his mistress’s house. The women of the Kang Family, Kang Junjia’s wife of many years, were left behind at the Kang Family home, exhausted from dealing with creditors and media every day.
Could these men even be called men?! If all men in the world had this nature—self-serving, marrying a wife merely to bear sons and daughters for them, and to be abandoned by them when the time came.
Kang Junjia caught his daughter-in-law’s gaze and coughed lightly, expressing discontent toward Xiao Shulan with the same dissatisfaction as his son, "Now that you’re here, what about your mother at home?"
"I can’t even look after my own father, how can I care for my mother-in-law? Moreover, if the father-in-law himself doesn’t care for his own wife, and a son doesn’t care for his own mother, then what was the point of having this son? Don’t you agree, Kang Baojun?" Xiao Shulan raised her cold eyebrows, glancing at her husband.
Facing her accusations, Kang Baojun replied with a righteous demeanor, "Is it necessary for outsiders to comment on my family’s affairs?"
"Oh, you consider me an outsider—" Xiao Shulan was as if struck by sudden realization.
"In any case, you better go home right now. If you’re going to be someone’s daughter-in-law, you need to be aware that if you’re not accompanying my mother at this time, who will?" Kang Baojun lectured her with assurance, not feeling the slightest shame about his and his father’s actions, "I’m telling you, if my dad and I were really trapped by our creditors, it would be the end for all of us. You know best what a good daughter-in-law should do in this situation."
