Chapter 124: Scheming Mr. Kang

Mr. Kang didn't eat dinner in the end. When he got home and lay in bed, his stomach was growling, and his mind replayed the day's events.

Embarrassment mixed with regret.

He found that whenever he returned to that familiar house and faced Yue Qin and Xia Sheng, he would unconsciously become like a child again.

He wanted to share everything with them, even something this embarrassing.

Actually, this matter was really not suitable to tell them. Although seeing them react the same way he did, covered in goosebumps and feeling their scalp tingling, gave him a sense of "we are indeed a family", it was still not suitable to tell them.

Mr. Kang thought again that his current mental state was really wrong. As long as he returned to that familiar house, he wished he could live there forever. Sitting on the sofa, even doing nothing, seemed to make him happy.

All of this was actually because he had formed a habit…

However, the words of others also made him realize a problem--

He was a 24-year-old adult, and the young couple was only 4 years older than him…

How could a 28-year-old be a parent to a 24-year-old?

They, like him, were actually used to their previous way of getting along.

It's like having a dog at home; you would feel unaccustomed if it suddenly left.

Mr. Kang's stomach was empty, and his mind was filled with negative thoughts. He thought of many things.

It was fine now; only one or two people mentioned it. Later, when Yue Qin returned to work, everyone would see that he had a good relationship with them… Adding in his second uncle, there would probably be more unsightly gossip.

Especially his second uncle, his grandparents, and his cousin's group would definitely find ways to spread rumors and add fuel to the fire.

Modern society didn't believe in true friendship between people. People were more willing to believe things they thought were true than the truth itself.

It would definitely be more troublesome then. It would not only affect Xia Sheng and Yue Qin but also Little Kangkang.

Mr. Kang looked at the ceiling dejectedly and decided on one thing--

He had to truly grow up. The first thing was to wean himself off Xia Sheng, Yue Qin, and Little Kangkang, so as not to cause them trouble.

Mr. Kang had grown up. He could not only resist getting free meals but also tolerate Master going for free meals.

Mr. Kang adjusted Master's work schedule to ensure that he could get two free meals a day. Master really did go for free meals every day.

It wasn't just because he was thick-skinned but also because the company didn't provide him with meals.

His first month's salary hadn't been paid yet, so he could only rely on free meals.

For Mr. Kang, this was not a simple matter, but the adult world was about tolerating such things.

Mr. Kang was busy every day until night. Dragging his tired body, he returned to his big, empty house. He didn't feel it before, but now he found his house to be really big and deserted.

It took a long time to walk from the living room to his bedroom.

It wasn't as good as a small house at all.

Mr. Kang lay on the sofa, feeling so uncomfortable that he wanted to call the young couple…

What were they doing at this hour?

He remembered one time, on a day like this, he ate too much for dinner and lay on the sofa with his violent mother, not wanting to move. His big dad would drag them both out for a walk.

His violent mother would sell him out: "Honey, you take the baby. He ate so much that his belly is round. He needs to walk. I'll lie down here for a while."

His big dad would say, "There's a music evening at the university next door. I got two tickets when I passed by today."

His violent mother would immediately go in to change clothes and come out all dressed up. The family of three would then go to the university to watch the concert.

As a result, when they arrived, they discovered that they had been tricked by his big dad into watching a Northeast Errenzhuan performance…

Mr. Kang remembered his violent mother's expression and the words she uttered at that time: "University music evening?"

His big dad explained seriously, "This is a senior university. This is their music evening. Isn't it great?"

What else could his violent mother say? She could only look at the senior university and say, "When you're old, I'll also sign you up for a senior university."

In fact, that time, their family of three sat in the senior university and watched a very interesting Errenzhuan performance.

Mr. Kang couldn't remember the content of the Errenzhuan performance at that time because it took them half an hour to get there, and he was already sleepy. When he woke up, his big dad was carrying him on his back and talking to his violent mother. The two of them were walking back.

The evening wind blew, and at that time, he only felt happiness.

Mr. Kang couldn't help but laugh.

"Buzz buzz--" The phone rang, interrupting Mr. Kang's thoughts.

Mr. Kang picked up the phone: "Assistant Li?"

"Mr. Kang, it's done," the person on the other side said.

Assistant Li had a headache recently. He had never seen Mr. Kang like this. He couldn't eat, was absent-minded, and once even asked him--

"Car rental business, boyfriend/girlfriend rental business, why is there no parent rental business in the market?"

It scared him on the spot. He originally thought that Mr. Kang was heartbroken, but it didn't seem like it.

In just a few short days, he had lost weight. He was originally full of energy after being discharged from the hospital, but now he was actually thinner.

Mr. Kang slowly got up and said, "Bring my lifesaver."

Master got into Mr. Kang's car half an hour later. The first thing he said was--

"I really can't do that previous business."

Then, he looked at Mr. Kang, a little surprised. This person had really grown up.

He didn't want to pry into his grandparents' thoughts but wanted to reconcile with them.

In Master's opinion, with this person's previous personality, their bad relationship was probably half his fault.

Now that he had such an idea to repair the relationship, he was really mature.

So, he immediately shut up.

Mr. Kang said what he thought, "I was too much like a hedgehog when I was a child, always hurting everyone who wanted to get close to me. Actually, thinking back carefully, my grandparents didn't do anything too bad."

Assistant Li in front was simply stunned. No way, was the boss serious? He was actually really going to reconcile with his grandparents? Him? The one who held grudges? Was there some conspiracy behind this sudden desire for reconciliation?

If there was a conspiracy, he should tell him in advance. How could he cooperate otherwise?

Master turned his head and said, "You misunderstood. Mr. Kang is really mature now. It's not a conspiracy."

Master was very sure because he could hear people's thoughts.

And… in Mr. Kang's heart, he really wanted to go home for dinner.

Master didn't quite understand. He had been eating at Yue Qin's house these days, and they obviously missed this person too.

The group soon arrived at the old mansion. This old mansion was where Kang's two elderly people lived. Occasionally, Mr. Kang's cousin would come back to stay. Mr. Kang had also come back once or twice when he was a child.

He recalled those two visits. He had never been back since.

The old mansion's housekeeper welcomed them in.

Master was ready, prepared for a reconciliation. He liked happy endings the most.

The big child, Mr. Kang, beside him, waited nervously and expectantly for his grandparents to come.

After waiting for two cups of tea, the two elderly people finally came down from upstairs.

A young man followed them, Mr. Kang's cousin.

Mr. Kang decided to show weakness first. He was so nervous that he couldn't help but drink water, thinking to himself--

How should he show weakness later… To cater to their preferences, he could give his yacht to their favorite grandson and apologize for interrupting his birthday party last time.

As the two elderly people approached, Master's brows furrowed, deeper and deeper.

Mr. Kang's grandfather was very old, already seventy years old, but he was very energetic. He had the appearance of a patriarch, his hair was all black, and he walked with vigor, not looking his age at all.

As soon as he came down and saw Mr. Kang, he couldn't help but frown.

The cousin next to him said, "My dear cousin actually still knows to visit Grandpa and Grandma. Didn't you say you would never come here again when you were young?"

Mr. Kang was a little angry, but then he thought about it. He did have a bad temper when he was a child, and these were his relatives.

He no longer had his big dad and violent mother. Since they were relatives, he should repair his relationship with them and not be so calculative.

Master listened to these inner thoughts, his fists clenched, very uncomfortable.

Mr. Kang said, "Cousin also said that. That was what I said when I was a child. I was ignorant when I was a child."

Grandpa knocked on his cane and said, "That's more like it. We are all family. How can a family say things that divide us?"

Mr. Kang didn't even look at Master beside him. Instead, he thought that he must have a good relationship with his grandparents. After all, he was also their grandson, and he was a grandson who lost his parents at a young age. If he hadn't been young, ignorant, and had a bad temper, they would definitely love him as much as they loved his cousin.

Now, he should prove to them that he had grown up and was no longer the selfish person who hoarded things when he was a child.

Grandpa even scolded his cousin at this time, saying, "You haven't taken care of your younger brother all these years."

Mr. Kang was happy in his heart. Sure enough, as long as he wasn't too much, his grandparents would still be on his side.

Mr. Kang said, "Cousin is only three years older than me. He doesn't need to take care of me."

His big dad often said that older brothers had no obligation to take care of their younger brothers because they were all just children. How could the responsibility of taking care of one child be placed on another child?

Master turned his head and shook his head at Mr. Kang: "Mr. Kang… Don't."

Grandpa walked over: "Yueyue has grown up. This car accident has really matured him."

Mr. Kang held the old man's hand. This was his grandfather…

He had really missed out on a lot. If he had grown up by his grandfather's side since he was a child, would his grandfather have told him about the family's entrepreneurial history? Would he have told him about his parents?

He was really a jerk when he was a child. He always felt that everyone around him wanted to steal his things and pushed everyone around him away.

The time he spent with his big dad and violent mother made him understand that between people, one party must first give trust before the other party would be willing to give trust and love.

Grandpa said a few more nice words, and Mr. Kang's originally thin and pale face gained a bit of happiness.

Grandpa was right. The company his father left behind should actually have a share for Grandpa.

In fact, during this time, he also found that money was not that important to him anymore.

If money could buy back affection, he would be willing to give all his money to the other party.

Master heard something at this time and finally couldn't help it. He pulled Mr. Kang: "Mr. Kang!"

Mr. Kang was still immersed in the reconciliation with his grandparents and the familial love of his cousin apologizing to him.

This was the family love he had always longed for. He had waited for so long. Since he was a child, he could only see others having it. It turned out that he could have it too.

It turned out that someone was willing to love him.

Grandpa said, "Actually, your cousin made a mistake with the company's project last time and has been feeling very guilty, but he didn't know how to tell you."

"You are brothers. There's no need to hurt your own brother for the sake of those outsiders."

Master looked at Mr. Kang, who had already lost a lot of weight, and then at the three people opposite him.

Seeing that Mr. Kang was about to fall into the trap, he finally couldn't bear it anymore and leaned close to Mr. Kang's ear, saying, "They are scheming against your company!"

"They are not your real grandparents. Your father was adopted by them."

"They don't treat you as family. If you want familial love, go to Yue Qin and Xia Sheng. They treat you as their son, but they are too embarrassed to say it."

Mr. Kang laughed as he listened. In the eyes of capitalists, no meal could be free.

Mr. Kang turned his head and was about to say thank you.

At this moment, a bolt of lightning struck where Master was standing.
