Chapter 523 Unable to Obtain It
They had been divorced for less than a week when he started seeing someone new!
They may even have been together for a long time.
So she never contacted him again after that.
But fate can be so cruel.
Wen Guishuang turned to look at Engineer Yuan, her eyes smiling and her voice gentle: "Didn't you want to eat dumplings? Let's make dumplings today, pork and scallion filling."
Then he called to his daughter, "Chenxi, come home with Mom and Dad."
Yuan Chenxi turned around, and the little girl, not minding her exhaustion, ran back to grab Yuan's hand and said in a soft, sweet voice, "Daddy, Daddy, carry me upstairs."
Yuan Gong let out a soft breath. Who would have thought? He really hadn't expected it at all.
As a man, he could tell at a glance that Deputy Factory Director Kang still harbored feelings for his wife.
What's more, they have such a lovely daughter.
The problem now is that Deputy Factory Director Kang and his current wife have no children.
Yuan Gong's expression returned to normal, and he squatted down as usual. Little Chenxi cheered and jumped onto Yuan Gong's not-so-broad but very warm back, hugging his neck: "Daddy, Daddy, go forward..."
Yuan Gong straightened up, his face full of affection. All his worries and anxieties had vanished. He wasn't stupid. Given the current situation, if Kong Fanrong, that woman, were to reveal everything about her vain and ignorant character, who knows what kind of trouble she would cause?
The adults didn't care, but he was worried about the children.
Chenxi is her biological daughter.
Of course, he couldn't bear to see his child get hurt.
Therefore, there's no need to worry about useless things right now. At least, there are three decent people who are rational and know what's best for the child.
As for Kong Fanrong, as long as Lao Kang handles him well, it shouldn't be a problem.
Engineer Yuan carried Yuan Chenxi on his back and happily walked towards the entrance of the building.
As Yuan Gong passed by Kang Yuxing, who was still staring at them, he smiled at him and greeted him, "Deputy Factory Director Kang, just got off work?"
Kang Yuxing could only force a smile and say in a hoarse voice, "Yes, I... I just got off work too."
Wen Guishuang, who followed behind, gave Kang Yuxing, whose eyes were red-rimmed, a cold glance.
He knew perfectly well what was going on, yet he still put on this act. If his daughter, Chenxi, found out, she would skin him alive.
Kang Yuxing stood there, meeting Wen Guishuang's mocking and angry gaze, and his heart sank deeper and deeper.
What was he thinking just now?
A happy family of three?
How could such a scene possibly happen!
They each have their own families now.
And the child doesn't even know it.
Carrying his chattering daughter on his back, Mr. Yuan led his wife up the stairs step by step, opened their front door, went inside, and slammed the door shut.
Standing behind the curtains, Kong Fanrong stared intently at the dazed Kang Yuxing, his gaze dark and menacing.
What's wrong?
Is this just an empty pretense?
Didn't we agree to pretend we didn't know?
What is he trying to do by putting on this show?
Does he still want to get back together with that woman, Wen Guishuang?
Kong Fanrong gripped the corner of the curtain tightly, gritting her teeth, her heart filled with surging jealousy and resentment.
How could this happen?
How did I end up running into her in Jiangcheng?
If she had known earlier that Wen Guishuang was in Jiangcheng, she would never have agreed to come here.
After realizing what was happening, Kang Yuxing, carrying his briefcase, entered the building with seemingly heavy steps.
Kong Fanrong was standing at the door.
According to the calculated time, Kang Yuxing should have taken out the key, opened the door, and gone inside by now.
But why is there still no movement?
Yes, firstly, he walks slowly, and secondly, he might be standing at the door looking across the street.
Kong Fanrong gritted his teeth, but had no choice but to walk toward the kitchen, pretending that he hadn't seen anything.
A short while later, her door was opened, and Deputy Factory Director Kang entered the house carrying his briefcase.
Kong Fanrong greeted him with a smile, and seeing his expression, she said quite directly, "I just heard that little girl chattering away, did you run into her?"
There was no way to hide such a thing from Kong Fanrong.
Kong Fanrong naturally understood this very well.
Hearing her say that, Kang Yuxing clenched her fists and frowned: "Don't mention it."
Kong Fanrong was not happy: "I didn't mean anything by it. I just heard the girl's voice and thought you must have run into each other. I just wanted to comfort you."
comfort?
A mocking smile appeared on Kang Yuxing's lips.
How to comfort them?
Is comforting someone helpful?
He doesn't dare to shed a tear even if he wants to.

Before leaving, Qin Hengzhi took Lu Qiaoge to a restaurant for dinner, to the same private room where the two of them often ate.
The dishes ordered were all Lu Qiaoge's favorites.
The rice was cooked in a small iron pot, and there was a layer of crispy rice at the bottom.
The crispy rice crust was scooped off completely and placed on another plate.
It was given to the two of them as a snack.
This is a privilege reserved only for Qin Hengzhi and Lu Qiaoge.
"I left my meal voucher here. You can come over whenever you want to eat."
"I estimate I won't be able to contact you for more than a week, so don't worry."
Qin Hengzhi glanced at Lu Qiaoge's smiling face and said somewhat wistfully, "Was I being redundant in saying this?"
Qiao Ge is so busy every day, he probably won't be too worried if we can't contact him for a week, right?
The main question is whether she will remember to contact him.
Lu Qiaoge glanced at Qin Hengzhi with amusement: "I'm not trying to scare you with what I'm about to say."
Qin Hengzhi's eyes lit up immediately: "Tell me!"
Lu Qiaoge said slowly, "If I wanted to know where you went, it would be very easy. Don't forget I have Xiao Cangcang."
Before Qin Hengzhi could speak, Lu Qiaoge asked him in return, "Of course, I feel that my behavior is not very good. It is invading your privacy and may affect your work. If that's the case, then forget it."
Qin Hengzhi immediately stopped him, saying in a very serious tone, "Don't do that. I really need it. I can go on my mission with peace of mind. If there is any danger, Xiao Cangcang can save my life."
Lu Qiaoge frowned: "What, is your mission very dangerous?"
Qin Hengzhi laughed: "I'm just a military representative at a military factory. My job is to supervise the production quality of military products. How could I possibly be carrying out any special missions? I was just joking with you."
Lu Qiaoge: "..."
She wasn't entirely convinced, but Lu Qiaoge didn't press the matter further.
She smiled and said, "In that case, we might really be able to keep track of your whereabouts at any time."
Qin Hengzhi's eyes were smiling, and his voice was gentle: "I couldn't ask for more!"
At this time, Kong Fanrong had just returned from a meeting. She was now the deputy section chief of the archives department. Of course, part of this was due to the influence of Deputy Factory Director Kang, and part of it was also because of her resume, which was basically qualified.
So she quickly started working in the archives. Today, on her way back from a meeting, she passed by the main office and overheard several idle cadres gossiping.
