Rebirth in 1993, My Dad is a Returned Youth

Chapter 172 Jiang Yaqin Threat

"real?!"

"Reliable!"

Li Kang patted his chest and promised, and then he heard Ye Yuqing's somewhat aggrieved voice,

"But you pat your chest and guarantee that it's me you're afraid of!"

The girl blushed and glared at him, "Hmph~ Forget it, I don't want to bother with you for now."

"How long are you going to hold me like this?"

"hey-hey."

Li Kang reluctantly let go of the girl's waist, "Sister Yuqing, let's go to the nearby Peace Hotel for dinner!"

Ye Yuqing looked at him viciously like a hen with its feathers standing on end. "You still call me sister now?"

"Yes, Sister Yuqing. If not sister, what else should I call you?" Li Kang pretended to be innocent.

"I let you hug me for so long just now, you shouldn't do that now..." When she said this, Ye Yuqing's voice became as small as a mosquito. It would be so embarrassing for her to tell the rest.

"You've been calling me all the time, so I just went along with it."

Li Kang would never admit it, but as long as he didn't admit it, he would be free.

“You—humph!”

"I want to go back!" Ye Yuqing didn't want to talk to this bad boy anymore. He was even worse than Kevin!

People have already done this much, but this guy is still reluctant to change the name.

"Sister Yuqing, it's just a name. I call you that in a very affectionate way. You will always be in my heart."

Li Kang took the girl's hand and placed it on his chest. "Listen, my heart is beating for you."

The routines and rhetoric are a bit old-fashioned, but they are sufficient in this era.

Ye Yuqing was indeed moved by his behavior.

Her fingers felt his beating chest, and her own heartbeat began to speed up.

"Forget it, you can yell whatever you want. I can't control you!"

She turned her head away, not daring to meet his gaze.

Every time I feel numb when I see Li Kang’s eyes.

It seemed as if he was going to eat it like a potato chip.

……

The second time he came to the Peace Hotel, Li Kang's mood was completely different from before.

Last time, Tom treated us all and we ate and drank at public expense.

Also brought family along.

This time it’s different, I’m bringing my relatives with me.

"Sister Yuqing, what do you want to eat? Just order whatever you want."

"So generous? Aren't you afraid that I'll go broke eating you out?"

Ye Yuqing flipped through the menu and found that the food was quite expensive.

It is still within their spending power.

The Peace Hotel sounds very fancy, but the food there is actually quite affordable.

A good meal in there costs only a few hundred yuan, not even as much as what I spent in the revolving restaurant before.

Exquisite cold dishes

Stewed Crab Legs with Wild Delicacy and White Jade

Fried Shrimp Balls
Old Cara charcoal grilled beef ribs
Mandarin Fish with Pine Nuts
……

The dishes ordered by Ye Yuqing were mostly old Shanghai style.

There is no heavy-tasting dish.

Li Kang had no choice but to follow suit and eat lighter food to avoid getting acne.

"Sister Yuqing, wait here for a moment. I'll make a phone call."

"What do you want to drink?"

“Just freshly squeezed grapes.”

……

"Hello."

"It's me, Jiang Yaqin. Li Jianhua's wife. You still remember me, right, Mr. Mu?"

"Oh, Ms. Jiang, what's going on?"

Jiang Yaqin actually asked Li Kang to teach Jiang Meiling in the afternoon or evening!

Li Kang frowned, trying to find an excuse to shirk his responsibility. "Well, Ms. Jiang, I have a job this afternoon."

"Mr. Mu, don't rush to refuse. Didn't you have a conflict with a man named Liu Guangzheng last time? Do you still remember him?"

Li Kang was worried. What did this woman mean? Was she trying to threaten him with this?

He doesn't really want to contact Li Jianhua's family now.

He is too weak. Li Jianhua has "married" into a wealthy family, and a wave over there might kill him.

Until you have the strength, it’s better to avoid appearing in front of them.

"Liu Guangzheng? I had forgotten about this person."

"He hasn't forgotten about you. After he returned, he started using his brother-in-law's connections to investigate you."

Li Kang's heart suddenly tightened, and he panicked for once. "Haha, what is he checking about me? What can he find out?"

"I didn't find anything, but his brother-in-law is the relevant leader. If he keeps looking for you, he will eventually find your trace. Maybe even where you live."

"I can help you suppress their investigation. Mr. Mu, don't worry." Jiang Yaqin deliberately dragged out her words. Smart people naturally knew what she meant next.

"Okay then. I'll be there at 2pm. Tell me the address."

Li Kang took a piece of paper and wrote down the other party's address.

After hanging up the phone, Li Kang looked melancholy.

"I didn't want to look for you. But you chose to look for me."

“Being too good at English is also a problem.”

When I returned to my seat, there was a glass of freshly squeezed grape juice with ice cubes in front of me.

"What's wrong?" Ye Yuqing noticed that Li Kang was in a low mood, "Why did answering a phone call make you like this?"

"You don't know who's calling." He picked up the juice on the table and took a big sip. The sour and sweet fruit flowed into his mouth through the juice tube.

He likes to eat grapes. Unfortunately, the grapes of this era are not as big as the Kyoho grapes of later times, so drinking grape juice is fine.

Ye Yuqing used a spoon to mix the milkshake in the cup and added some cut fruits.

A fruit milkshake is ready.

After taking a sip, a happy smile appeared on his face.

"It's Li Jianhua's wife calling."

puff~
Li Kang was scared out of his wits by the fruit milkshake he had just drunk, and it sprayed all over his face.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Let me clean it up for you."

Li Kang calmly wiped the milkshake off his face with paper, "It's okay. Just a small problem."

"How can you be so calm? Why did she call you?"

Li Kang just sighed, looking a little disappointed.

"It's all because I'm too good. She insisted on paying a lot of money for me to teach her daughter. The tuition fee is one thousand yuan per hour. Do you think I can feel at ease taking this money?"

Ye Yuqing clenched her fists, feeling her hands itchy.

"Damn it!" This was the first time I realized that Li Kang deserved a beating.

"I really don't feel safe taking it. She's your stepmother."

Li Kang took out a piece of paper with the address written on it, "Do you know where Central Garden is?"

"Central Garden?! It seems that only the rich and powerful live there."

"It's no wonder your dad lives there."

Then he pointed out where the central garden was.

The houses there are worth about two thousand yuan per square meter.

They are usually large houses with three bedrooms and two living rooms or more.

Some wealthy people may even connect two rooms to create a super-large flat with five bedrooms and three living rooms.

Used to cope with large population in the family.

People living there don’t feel the cramped feeling that they would have if they lived in an alley.

It is hard for ordinary Shanghainese to imagine.

From the moment you are born, it is decided whether you can live in such a big house in this life.

And the location and transportation are very good.

Ye Yuqing couldn't help but joked: "It's not too late for you to go and recognize your relatives now. They will definitely welcome you very much."

"No way, absolutely impossible."

It’s not like I can’t afford it.

But the situation is still unclear at the moment, so money cannot be spent recklessly.

After accompanying Ye Yuqing to have a delicious meal of traditional Shanghai-style dishes, at two o'clock in the afternoon, Li Kang drove a motorcycle taxi and came to the downstairs of Jiang Yaqin's house.

"I won't go up. I'll wait for you in a nearby bookstore while reading a book."

Originally he wanted to send Ye Yuqing back to school.

But when I thought about the fact that so many people in the school saw him pick up the child, and sending him back now, there would definitely be a big public outcry.

So he took the girl and went to the Central Garden together.

Jiang Yaqin lives on the fourth floor.

This height is just right, allowing you to see the scenery in the distance without being disturbed by people below.

There is a very large garden in the middle for people in the community to relax and have fun.

The stairs going upstairs are also very spacious and clean.

Compared with Lin Weihua’s house where I visited last time, there is an obvious difference.

There is no debris in the aisle here.

There are many luxury cars downstairs.

Almost every family can afford to buy a Mercedes-Benz.

The people who live here are so extravagant that it's hard to imagine.

If Li Kang had lived in a place like this when he first came to Shanghai, he might not be so surprised now.

But after living in the alley, I felt that it was simply paradise.

The alley is just a nook and cranny. You're not even worthy of carrying shoes here.

Li Kang is emotionally more inclined towards alley life.

That is the life of ordinary people. Even if they become rich, they will never forget the days they spent there.
