Rebirth in 1993, My Dad is a Returned Youth

Chapter 290 Commitment
When Li Kang came out of the bathroom, he blow-dried his hair with a towel.

Hair dryers were not very popular at that time. If someone made one, it would definitely sell out.

The principle is actually not complicated, it is just a small motor plus a resistor.

However, the temperature control is poor at this time, and it is easy to overheat and damage the hair. Therefore, although hair dryers are already available on the market, residents are not very enthusiastic about buying them.

The reason is that the temperature control is not good and the motor technology is not good either.

Nothing works yet.

"If I had a skill, I would be lying down and counting money now. Why would I need to take classes?"

Hair dryers, rice cookers, and refrigerators are things that don’t require high technology, but are not easy to make in this era.

Li Kang feels that no matter what era, time travelers with a liberal arts background will not have it as easy as time travelers with a science or engineering background.

Just create something that will revolutionize the times and enjoy it for the rest of your life.

It’s not certain for liberal arts students, it depends on the weather.

"When the time is right, I will also try my hand in the technology industry."

After drying his hair, he picked up his phone and prepared to call Ye Yuqing.

But I found a lot of missed text messages on my phone.

"Who's calling? It can't be something urgent!"

After calling back, Wang Manyue on the other end was in a terrible mood. She called Li Kang more than ten times, but no one answered.

I felt a little regretful. Why did I hang up after the call was connected in the first place?

At this time, the call finally came back. Wang Manyue did not dare to delay for a moment and quickly picked up the phone.

"Hello, who is it? What's up?"

Wang Manyue wanted to respond immediately, but when the words came to her lips, she felt a little stiff.

Li Kang shouted for a long time, "Is there anyone there? ...Who is it? He hung up."

When she heard that he was about to hang up, Wang Manyue called out to him, "Don't! It's me."

"I called you so many times, why didn't you answer?"

"It's you!" Li Kang recognized Wang Manyue's voice. "I thought it was a harassing call. I was about to answer it, but you hung up yourself."

Humph! "Then can't you call me back?"

"Tell me what you want to say. I have something else to do later."

The little girl obviously didn't know Li Kang very well, nor did she know herself very well.

If you continue like this, it will only arouse Li Kang's disgust.

Wang Manyue also heard the impatience in Li Kang's tone, and felt extremely aggrieved, but was afraid that Li Kang would hate her, so she quickly said, "I ranked in the top ten in the class and the top 200 in the grade in the final exam this time."

"You still remember your promise."

When Wang Manyue was talking to Li Kang on the phone, Lao Wang suddenly appeared behind her and asked, "Who are you talking to?"

The girl was so frightened that she dropped the microphone in her hand, her face full of panic.

"My classmate just finished fighting."

Lao Wang didn't care and just said, "As long as it's not a romantic relationship."

After Lao Wang left, Wang Manyue called Li Kang again.

"I'll call you from a public phone booth."

Li Kang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He was actually secretly talking on the phone with a 17-year-old high school student.

Thinking that I still had to go to Pudong New Area to pick up Ye Yuqing, I called there first.

……

"Yuqing, do you want me to pick you up?"

"My dad is coming here in your car. Let's go directly to the People's Hotel."

"Okay, I'll be there right away."...

Wang Manyue came to the public telephone booth in the wind and snow. It was very cold outside and she called Li Kang but the line was busy.

A feeling of grievance surged in my heart. I braved the wind and snow to come outside to call him, but I couldn't get through.

Try one last time. If you can’t get through again, don’t try again.

Fortunately, it succeeded in one try.

Li Kang was trembling when he heard the other party talking, and asked with concern: "Are you cold?"

"What do you think? I'm outside calling you, how can I not be cold?"

"I'm going outside to make a phone call! Don't you want to wear more clothes?"

Wang Manyue heard that he cared about her and felt that the call was worth it. "I just wanted to talk to you, but it's not convenient at home."

"Go back quickly. I know the promise I made before, but I'm not free right now. You have to wait for a while."

Wang Manyue was not stupid either. She could tell that the man was just trying to make up a story for her. "Men's words are lies. You definitely don't admit it if you say that."

"Auntie, you should go back soon. I didn't lie to you. I would feel bad if you got frozen." Li Kang said casually.

But Wang Manyue rarely heard a man say this to her, and it actually aroused the fire in her heart. She suddenly felt warm all over and was no longer cold as if by magic.

"Then tell me a specific time and I'll go back. Otherwise I won't go back."

"…At the end of the year. I'm going to BJ soon. I might have to stay there for half a month."

"Then it's a deal. You must come to see me before the New Year."

Li Kang finally managed to calm Wang Manyue down and coax her back home.

After hanging up the phone, he shook his head helplessly and said, "Let's go to the People's Hotel as soon as possible."

Li Jianhua is treating Ye Jinhua and his family to dinner today.

I shouldn't have gone, but Li Jianhua saw me, so I had to go.

I hope Li Jianhua doesn’t bring his family here…

As a result, what he feared came true. When Li Kang arrived, he saw Jiang Yaqin holding her daughter Jiang Meiling's hand.

The mother and daughter walked together like a pair of sisters. The elder sister was dignified, mature and intellectual, while Jiang Meiling was a beautiful girl with both temperament and good looks.

They are all very tall.

"Zikang? You're here too?"

"Auntie, you are here too."

"Isn't dad having dinner with his old friends today? I heard there's a pretty sister there, her boyfriend can't be you!"

Jiang Meiling asked worriedly and happened to run into Ye Yuqing's family.

Seeing that Li Kang had arrived early, Ye Yuqing happily walked to his side, and threw her ponytail on Li Kang's shoulders, "Why are you here so early?"

Jiang Meiling felt uncomfortable when she saw Ye Yuqing, "This must be Teacher Mu's girlfriend. She looks pretty good, but her parents are just average."

Jiang Yaqin also noticed Ye Jinhua's family who had just arrived. The lady saw through the family's background in a second. They were definitely not as good as them, let alone Li Kang.

I really can't understand why Zikang would fall in love with a girl from such a family.

Since these people were invited by Li Jianhua, she still invited everyone to go in.

"Let me introduce you. This is Uncle Li's daughter, Jiang Meiling."

Ye Yuqing took the initiative to extend her hand to Jiang Meiling in a friendly manner, "Hello, I'm Ye Yuqing."

Jiang Meiling naturally would not embarrass others in front of Li Kang.

Still shook hands with Ye Yuqing, "I'm Jiang Meiling."

Ye Yuqing had a sharp sixth sense, and her intuition told her that the beautiful girl in front of her, who was as beautiful as her, probably didn't want to see her and Li Kang together.
