<strong>Chapter 326: Chapter 326: Luo Yanqing is Back</strong>
“I’ve never had any intentions towards you, so how can we talk about consideration?” With that final statement, Kang Guoan didn’t hesitate for a second, lengthening his stride and passing Yang Zijuan to continue on his way.
Unexpectedly, Kang Guoan had only taken less than ten steps when someone suddenly clung to his waist from behind.
“I like you, Kang Guoan, I know you’re taken, but I just can’t let go of you. What do you want me to do?”
Yang Zijuan said between sobs.
Irritation and anger filled Kang Guoan’s eyes as he decisively pried Yang Zijuan’s hands away, his gaze sharp as he looked at her and coldly said, “Comrade Yang Zijuan, I will tell you onest time, please have some self-respect!”
Some distance away, many workers looked towards the two of them.
“This is just too shameless! Comrade Kang Guoan obviously has a partner, and he’s made it clear more than once that he’s not interested in her, so why does she keep clinging to him?”
“Before, some people misunderstood Comrade Kang Guoan as the third party between Yang Zijuan and someone else, but look at what happened, each and every one of them was pped in the face by Comrade Kang Guoan’s partner.”
“Do you think Yang Zijuan will give up?”
“Who knows?”
“This is such an embarrassment for all of us women!”
“Indeed, it’s as if she can’t get married or something, insisting on clinging to Comrade Kang Guoan!”
“I saw Comrade Kang Guoan’s partner the other day; she really is pretty, like a fairy descended to earth.”
“I saw her too. Not only is Comrade Kang Guoan’s partner beautiful, but she also has a very elegant demeanor.”
“Why don’t you mention how well-dressed she is too?”
“I didn’t say it, but you just did!”
…
Kang Guoan had walked far away and naturally didn’t know what the onlooking workers were talking about, while Yang Zijuan did hear a few sentences butpletely disregarded them, walking home in a daze.
Time trickled by, and on the bus, Kang Guoan checked the time on his watch again and then stood up, carrying a small travel bag, and moved towards the rear door.
It was already past seven-thirty; Li Bao must be getting anxious, right?
Thinking this, Kang Guoan got off the bus as soon as it came to a stop and quickened his pace.
“Young man?”
At the entrance of thepound, a jeep slowed to a halt beside Kang Guoan, followed by a rear door on one side swinging open. Luo Yanqing got out, making sure he wasn’t mistaken, he couldn’t help but call out again, “Young man.”
Luo Yanqing paused, then turned to another person in the back seat and said, “Director, I’ll just walk in.” After saying this, Luo Yanqing closed the car door, watched the jeep drive into thepound, and then said to Kang Guoan, “Let’s go.”
Kang Guoan nodded and uttered a sound of acknowledgment.
As they walked side by side, Kang Guoan said, “Li Bao was still worrying that you might be too busy toe back.”
“There was indeed some work I couldn’t get away from,” replied Luo Yanqing. He continued, “But everyone in the office hasn’t had any rest in the past few months, so taking advantage of the uing New Year, the department has given everyone a two-day leave.”
Two months ago, Luo Yanqing took a three-day leave to go home for medical treatment, but other staff members at the office had been working up until today.
It wasn’t that the office didn’t give time off. Instead, the researchers from each project team were all workaholics, unable to set aside their work.
And now he was able toe back because the leadership in the office had mandatorily given all staff a two-day leave, so everyone could go home to spend New Year’s with their families and unwind a bit.
Kang Guoan said, “Seeing youe back suddenly, Ruirui and the others will definitely be very happy.”
Luo Yanqing didn’t reply but said, “I’m busy with work and rarelye home during the year, which must be tough on Xiao Li.”
“To marry you means Li Bao was prepared in her heart, so you don’t need to feel sorry,” said Kang Guoan.
