Kang Li smiled, deeply moved by the harmony among the brothers in the family, yet her stunningly beautiful face didn't reveal anything out of the ordinary, and with a sweet voice, she said, "I understand, but what I said just now absolutely holds true."
"Alright, Lao Wu's job is settled then, in two days, Big Brother Kang and I will accompany Li Bao and Lao Wu to North City. Once they're settled, we'll start our journey back home."
With that simple decision, Captain Kang waved his hand, indicating that the family meeting was adjourned.
Cai Xiufen: "Why are you in such a hurry to go to North City? Can't you... can't you wait another ten days or so before leaving?" She really couldn't bear to part with her Li Bao!
"They're waiting for Li Bao over there!"
Captain Kang knew his wife was distressed over the hurried separation from their daughter, but there was no helping it. Director Wu had said that Comrade Luo's child was on summer vacation with no one to take care of him, and it wasn't proper to keep asking other residents in the courtyard to help out. They figured since the young couple was already registered and had their marriage certificate, it would be better for Li Bao to go to North City as soon as possible, to assume her roles as a wife and a mother.
"Why's that? Do they really see our Li Bao as some kind of nanny?"
Cai Xiufen's face fell.
"Can't you speak nicely?"
Glaring at his wife, Captain Kang said, "Comrade Luo is busy with work and can't take time off, and his kid is on summer vacation. Leaving the child with others for an extended period isn't right, so they thought it would be best for Li Bao to go there sooner so that Comrade Luo can focus on his research in peace."
Upon hearing this, Cai Xiufen snorted coldly and pouted, "All said and done, you still just want to make our Li Bao a nanny."
"Mom, I like kids."
Kang Li interjected at the right moment.

Cai Xiufen remained full of worry: "Talking about it is one thing, actually doing it is another."
