Outsider: The Fifth Young Master of the Kang Family

Chapter 72 A-Zu's "Girlfriend"

Over the next two days, the Kang family received orchids every day, and Da Lao Guang became more and more nervous. In a fit of rage, he ran to the flower shop at the corner of the street and bought all the orchids.

The big boss ran into the house in a panic and said, "Did you see a man coming in with a bouquet of flowers?" It turned out that he was on his way back from buying flowers and saw a man walking towards the Kang family with a bouquet of orchids.

"Yes, and he's quite eye-catching." The second brother and his wife said in unison, meaning that the person was the boss himself.

The boss became even more anxious after hearing this. He kept looking at his room and asked in a trembling voice, "Who is it?"

"Boss, just tell me what game you want to play. Why go around in so much circles? But in this way, I think your show is pretty exciting. It makes our whole family revolve around you and your wife." The second boss was speechless. He felt that the boss was directing and acting in the show himself.

"Do you think I am the mysterious man?" said Big Brother Guang.

The second brother replied: "Isn't it?"

"I didn't want that mysterious person to continue sending me flowers, so I bought all the flowers back so that he wouldn't have a chance to pursue me." Big Brother Guang explained his behavior. Kang Qirui thought to himself: If someone really pursues Xianglan, sending flowers is not necessarily the only way. But he didn't dare to say this, for fear of irritating Big Brother Guang.

At this time, someone knocked on the door, and Kang Qirui got up to open it. He saw a man in his 50s or 60s walking in with a bunch of fragrant orchids. After entering the door, the man looked left and right and said in confusion: "Didn't they say that a single woman lives here?"

"Aren't you the owner of that flower shop?" Da Lao Guang recognized the man in front of him and said, "Tell me the truth, how did you know Xianglan?"

"You said I run a flower shop, so why don't you know pandan?" The flower shop owner raised the pandanus flower in his hand.

The boss stared at him and said, "I'm not talking about these fragrant orchids, I'm talking about the fragrant orchids in our family."

"What? I don't know what you are talking about." The flower shop owner was about to leave, but was stopped by the eldest and second brothers. "What do you want to do?" He suddenly became scared.

While the boss was arguing with him, the old lady and Mrs. Zhu walked in, talking and laughing. When the flower shop owner saw Mrs. Zhu, he ran to her as if he had found a rescuer and said, "I'm here to look for her."

When Mrs. Zhu saw that Kang Qirui was also at home, she suddenly became shy and asked, "Why are you still looking for me?"

"I saw that you liked pandan very much before. The flowers in my shop were just sold out today, but they were delivered just now. I'll give some to you." He handed the flowers to Mrs. Zhu, who felt even more embarrassed.

"A few days ago, you asked a child to send flowers to my mother?" Only Kang Qirui could ask this question.

The flower shop owner nodded, pointed at Mrs. Zhu and said, "That's the address she gave me."

"I'm sorry, I didn't expect the boss to actually send me flowers, and I was embarrassed to refuse, so I..." Mrs. Zhu saw the boss's furious look and quickly explained, "I just wanted you and Xianglan to have some fun with flowers, so I asked the kid to bring it to you."

"You didn't misunderstand me, did you? Actually, there's nothing special about it. Just treat it as a way to spice things up." The more Mrs. Zhu talked, the more outrageous it became. Everyone was too embarrassed to scold Mrs. Zhu in front of Kang Qirui, so they could only look at Kang Qirui. Kang Qirui's scalp was numb when he was seen, so he decided to run away, so he took Mrs. Zhu and ran back to the Zhu family next door.

After Kang Qirui took Mrs. Zhu away, the second brother and his wife scolded Mrs. Zhu harshly. Only then did the eldest brother Guang calm down a little. He gave all the orchid flowers he bought to Xianglan, which made Xianglan very happy.

Kang Qirui stayed at Zhu's house until he finished dinner, and then called the second brother to find out that the eldest brother was no longer angry before he dared to go home. When he was leaving, he happened to meet A Zu who came back from get off work with a sad face. "What's wrong? Fourth brother." Kang Qirui asked as he walked.

"My old aunt sent me to Jinling on a business trip." A-Zu said in great grief and anger.

"How long will you be gone?" Kang Qirui continued to ask. "About a week."

The old lady disagreed when she heard the two brothers talking, "No way? A week is so long, how can this be possible!"

"Mom, it's only a week. Fourth brother is a grown man. Are you afraid that he will get lost?" Kang Qirui said with a smile.

"That's right, Auntie, you are such a loving mother with a spoiled son. How old is A-Zu?" My uncle also felt that the nanny was too nervous.

The old woman shook her head and said worriedly, "Anyway, I'm worried about where you go."

"Mom, do you have to make it seem like we're parting forever? He's a man, are you still afraid that he'll be abused by others? Speaking of being afraid that he'll be cheated by others, I think people will be smiling if he doesn't lie?" The second brother's tone was sour.

"I was deceived this time." A Zu stood up and said angrily.

Oh no? Kang Qirui became curious: "Who cheated me?" "That old aunt, there are so many people in the company, but you didn't send anyone but me. Isn't that cheating me?" A-Zu was still very angry.

"Jinling is a tourist destination. Many people want to go there but can't." Er Lao felt that A-Zu was just spoiled.

Kang Qirui thought for a while and said, "If you are really unhappy at your job, then just quit and go work for a clothing company?" This was the second time Kang Qirui invited A Zu to work in his company.

"Forget it." Compared to going on a business trip, A-Zu was more reluctant to work with a group of workaholics. He said, "I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going back to pack my things and leave tomorrow."

The next morning, A-Zu went out quietly with a small bag on his back. Kang Qirui had just gotten up and asked, "Fourth brother, why are you out so early?" A-Zu hurriedly asked Kang Qirui to speak softly, "If I don't leave so early, the old lady will get up and ask me to carry a lot of bags with her. Did you know that? The old lady packed two suitcases yesterday." After saying that, he left in a hurry.

Kang Qirui smiled, washed up and went to work. The final exam will be next month, and he has to prepare for the final exam this week. As the end of the semester approaches, there are more and more meetings, and Kang Qirui is still very busy at school all day. He is busy until dinner time every day before he gets home. While eating, someone knocks on the door, and Xianglan takes the initiative to open the door.

"Who are you?" Xianglan asked when she arrived at the door and saw a strange woman.

"I'm looking for A-Zu." The strange woman said while leaning against the door.

Xianglan did not open the door, and said to the strange woman through the door: "Azu? Azu is on a business trip."

"A-Zu is on a business trip? How about you let me in first?" The woman was a little surprised. Xianglan thought about it and finally opened the door to let her in. When the people who were eating saw that Xianglan had not come back after opening the door for so long, they all came out to check on the situation.

"Dad, this young lady wants to look for A-Zu." Xianglan told her father the purpose of this strange woman coming to their house.

"Looking for Grandpa? Grandpa is on a business trip and won't be back for a few days." Grandpa said politely. The old woman asked, "Who are you? What do you want to talk to Grandpa about?"

"I'm his girlfriend." The strange woman's words were earth-shattering. "What?"

The old lady asked, "When did you meet? A-Zu never told us that he had a girlfriend."

"We met three months ago," the strange woman replied.

The old woman continued to ask: "Then where did you meet?"

The strange woman smiled sweetly and said: "We fell in love at first sight in a bar."

"Love at first sight or lust at first sight?" Kang Qirui said in a low voice, looking at the woman. "Even if she was lust at first sight, she should have been attracted by Fourth Brother's lust." The strange woman was average looking and had an average figure. Judging from the quality of the girlfriends that A Zu had dated before, he should not be interested in this lady.

"Everyone is used to A-Zu being a philanderer, but no one expected that he would be so undiscriminating." The second brother also felt that this woman was indeed just average. "That lady, our A-Zu has already been married." The second brother was referring to Diana.

"I really am his girlfriend, otherwise how could I find this place?" The strange woman became anxious when she heard it, "Also, he has three older brothers, Guang, Zong, Yao, and a younger brother named Arui. His brothers are all married. The eldest sister-in-law is from southern Henan, the second sister-in-law is from Chaoshan, the third sister-in-law is from Shanghai, and the brother's wife is a local." She directly reported the family information.

The strange woman thought for a moment and added, "By the way, my third sister-in-law has a cousin named Yumi, who is also living at home now." Not many people knew that Yumi lived at Kang's house. Most of the neighbors only knew that there was a beautiful girl named Yumi at Kang's house, and they were not very clear about her identity. When the strange woman said that Yumi was Sachiko's cousin, everyone believed it 50%.

"It's not that we don't believe you, it's just that A-Zu is on a business trip. If you don't believe me, you can call him and ask him." The old man explained quickly.

"I called him, but no one answered." She said a little aggrievedly, "I have been an orphan since I was a child, and now I have his own flesh and blood."

"Ah?" This was the second earth-shattering thing that the Kang family had heard tonight.

The strange woman ignored everyone's expressions and continued to talk about her bizarre life experience to gain everyone's sympathy: "I am a lonely girl and no one takes care of me." She started crying as she spoke.

The old woman softened her heart when she heard this. "Okay, okay, don't cry." She came to the strange woman and comforted her. "What's your name?"

"My name is Zhang Yun." After the strange woman said her name, she leaned into the old maid's arms and continued crying.

Kang Qirui felt that the matter was not that simple, so he said, "Miss Zhang, can we first understand this matter clearly before we talk about it? Sister-in-law, Wanling, Yumi, please accompany Miss Zhang." He motioned for the old lady, the nanny, the second brother, the second sister-in-law, Ayao Xingzi and others to go into the dining room to discuss.
