Chapter 1435: Chapter 1437: That Woman

"Okay, I’ll leave it to you," Kuang Yunxian patted Jin Lei on the shoulder.

Chiang Xiao touched her forehead and said, "Brother Kuang, don’t think I’ll be bullied. It’s already good enough that I don’t bully others."

"I know you’re smart, but after all, you’re still a young girl."

Wang Yi was speechless. Weren’t Chiang Xiao’s classmates young girls too?

Could it be because Chiang Xiao was one or two years younger than them?

After dinner, Wang Yi and Jin Lei left first. Chiang Xiao locked the door and went with Kuang Yunxian to the hospital to visit Kuang Qingqing.

Kuang Yunxian suggested that they walk for a while to aid digestion.

It was only about eight o’clock in the evening.

The streetlights outside were dim, casting long shadows of them on the ground.

When they passed by a fruit stand, Chiang Xiao picked out eight apples.

Kuang Yunxian took them over and said, "Thank you on behalf of Qingqing first, she loves eating fruits." But he wouldn’t let Chiang Xiao carry them.

"Actually, I think girls all like flowers. It’s a pity I didn’t see a flower shop, or I would have bought her a bouquet too."

Kuang Yunxian chuckled softly.

"When you meet Qingqing, you’ll know. She has a tomboyish nature and has her hair cut really short."

Chiang Xiao was taken aback. She felt a bit weird about it.

If one has a tomboy personality, one shouldn’t be that easily pushed down the stairs by a woman, right?

But that’s hard to say. What if it was an unguarded moment?

Since they had already brought up Kuang Qingqing, it was natural for them to talk about that woman.

"When she came to our home, Qingqing was only a few years old, still a little girl. Uncle felt pity for her, seeing that she had nowhere to go, and showed a lot of compassion. Moreover, he always had Aunt give her own clothes and such to her. Qingqing couldn’t stand it, but she wouldn’t confront her father outright. Instead, she played quite a few pranks behind his back."

Chiang Xiao felt she could roughly tell from Kuang Yunxian’s words that he didn’t like that woman much either. Because when he referred to that woman, he just used the pronoun "she" and gave her no title.

"That girl Qingqing has a nasty temper, and some of her pranks are really hard to accept. Like she secretly splashed red ink on the back of her pants, cut her hair while she was napping, drew a turtle on her face, and even buried two caterpillars in her food."

Chiang Xiao shuddered as she listened.

Indeed, some children’s pranks are too much.

"Sometimes she was scared and screamed, sometimes she was so frightened she cried, and at times she would complain to grandpa and grandma. Then Qingqing would get a beating from her father. The little girl really got a lot of spankings because of her, but the more she was hit, the more mischievous she became."

Chiang Xiao was somewhat puzzled. Initially, when she heard what Wang Yi said, she thought Kuang Kanzhi’s wife was already deceased, which is why there seemed to be something special between him and that woman, which is why Kuang Qing would look at her with particular displeasure, because that woman might have become her stepmother.

But now, hearing what Kuang Yunxian said, it seemed not to be the case.

She couldn’t help asking, "Doesn’t your aunt mind?"

Kuang Yunxian said with a bitter smile, "Frankly, I don’t quite understand my aunt either. However, my aunt is an exceptionally traditional woman, and very kind-hearted, well-educated, and polite. She has never spoken loudly; even when she scolds Qingqing, she does it in a low voice, gently reasoning with her."

Hearing this, Chiang Xiao laughed, "Brother Kuang, your personality must take after your aunt, right?"
