Chapter 257 - 257 257 Beautiful Lies Chapter 257: Chapter 257: Beautiful Lies Chapter 257: Chapter 257: Beautiful Lies Kang Li knew Mrs. Qi was right. Moreover, she had no idea about Feng Yi and Mo Yan's academic foundations and whether they had graduated from high school. If they just ran off to the countryside to join the workforce, and then, if they happened to fall in love with someone locally, perhaps even getting married and having children, the prospects of returning to the city... would becmuch more difficult.

If they do well, it's possible for them to becpermanent employees." Mrs. Qi made the final decision.
"But... won't this cause trouble for you and Godfather?" Kang Li voiced her concerns.
"No." Mrs. Qi shook her head and said with a smile, "It's just two temporary positions. Besides, your godmother here isn't just going to unfairly secure those positions for them. I'm thinking of leveraging my relationships to see which factory under my responsibility has vacancies for temporary workers or needs to hire temporary workers. Anyway, I wouldn't do anything illegal or against discipline." "If that's the case, I feel relieved." Kang Li pursed her lips in a smile.
"Ding-a-ling! Ding-a-ling..." The ringing of the landline phone startled them. Mrs. Qi was sitting right by the phone and promptly picked up the receiver. When she heard it was Director Song's voice on the other end, she covered the mouthpiece and mouthed to Kang Li, "It's your Godfather." Then, she started talking to Director Song: "Why are you calling hat this hour?" After having lunch, shouldn't he be thinking of taking a nap instead of making phone calls? she muttered to herself silently. Still, Mrs. Qi listened attentively to Director Song speaking on the other end of the line.

Your godfather said the thermal underwear you gave him is really warm, and he plans to wear it in a few days." "You're being too formal, Godmother. There's no need for thanks! If I hadn't been in such a rush today, I would've brought you the thermal underwear and the pastries I specially prepared for you. I think I should go hnow and bring them over." "No need, no need." Mrs. Qi waved her off: "Haven't I told you before not to spend your money on us? We lack for nothing; all that matters is that you're doing well." Still, Kang Li stood up: "It's a token of my affection, Godmother. You can't refuse." Walking towards the living room entrance, Kang Li said, "I'll be quick." Mrs. Qi: "This child, acting on every impulse!" She shook her head, yet her eyes were filled with happiness.
In less than fifteen minutes, Kang Li took out the thermal underwear for Mrs. Qi and Song Xuan from a large cloth bag: This is for Godmother, and this is for Xuan Xuan. I've already washed them; you can wear them directly when you get them." Mrs. Qi felt the fabric: "The material is soft and warm to the touch. You must have spent quite a bit of money, didn't you?"
"With a classmate of Vivi's whose parents have a good relationship withworking in a woolen mill, one day they asked if I wanted any thermal fabrics. Considering the cold om weather thought if the underwear worn close to the body was warmer, it would prevent the cold in winter. Finding the price reasonable, I asked them to buy extra, not only for Godfather, Godmother, and Xuan Xuan but also for Luo Yanqing and Ruirui to cut and sew. I have also made sfor my parents, and I'll send them back to my hometown when I find ttomorrow."
Before coming to this world, Kang Li had never lied or had any inclination to lie. But since she had becthe youngest daughter of the Kang family in this world, it seemed, perhaps, she often spun beautiful lies.
