Zhang Hongmei gave a forced smile. "I'm just worried you'll gain weight."

Wang Ying also reacted very quickly, saying, "It's great to gain weight. If other people see a fat person, they will definitely be envious."

Zhang Hongmei thought it best to ignore Wang Ying's nonsense.

Han Mei came over and said to Zhang Hongmei, "If a foreigner calls, tell him to call back in ten minutes."

"Okay, then I'll go back to my study."

The call was from Roger. "Miss, motorcycle sales have surged, but most of the orders are from the surrounding areas of Hai City."

"Hmm, you mean you want to set up a factory in Haishi, right?"

"Yes, I am interested in that."

"Liu Jingze is in Haishi. You can go there to find him and finalize the factory location. Then let me know. I agree to build the factory in the south; in fact, it doesn't have to be in Haishi."

“Miss, I want to go back to China. I think if the equipment is shipped over, it should be able to be completed in time for the factory to be finished.”

“That’s fine. I’ll send someone over to take over. You should get to Haishi as soon as possible, confirm the factory site with Liu Jingze and Liang Dan there, give them the factory design drawings, and let Liang Dan handle the construction. Then you can go back to China.”

"Understood. When will Miss's people arrive?"

"I'm leaving today. I should arrive tomorrow afternoon. Also, please help me take back the things I gave Carlos."

"yes!"

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Hongmei thought about it and decided that sending Lu Jing over was the most suitable option.

But I'm afraid my family won't agree. I picked up the phone. "Brother Zhang, Roger McCann wants to set up a motorcycle factory in Haishi. I've agreed, but someone needs to take over here. I'd like Lu Jing to go."

“Hongmei, Lu Jing can’t leave you. You can’t do without her now.”

“Brother Zhang, I think she’s the most suitable person to go among the people around me. Besides, there are so many people in the family. I’ve thought it over, and she’s still the most suitable one to go.”

"Then you must go back to the compound to live when you give birth."

"Brother Zhang, is the compound absolutely safe? Zhou Shixiong lives there too."

"This is safer than outside."

"Okay, then I'll move in after Sister Erya gets married."

"Hongmei, do you really not want to go?"

"No, it's not like that. I'm the same no matter where I am."

"Hmm, I'll talk about it when I get back."

Zhang Hongmei hung up the phone and called Lu Jing in.

"Drive to the car factory and take over the work there. Call me if anything happens. Go pack your luggage and come back to pick it up in a bit."

"Yes!" Lu Jing was also puzzled as to why she was being excluded at this time, but she would never ask why and would simply obey orders.

Zhang Hongmei closed the door and entered the space. She wrote a letter to Carlos, another to Annie, a letter to Wyatt, and also a letter to Zhao Haozheng and Wang Xinyi.

After that, I put the script and the game together before leaving the space.

Lu Jing arrived quickly. "Make sure you hand things over to the people over there. Let Cai Peilin come with you; he's fluent in foreign languages."

Cai Peilin was designing a game with Cheng Guangxu when he heard Zhang Hongmei calling him over.

"Cai Peilin, I need to trouble you with something. You need to accompany Lu Jing to the car manufacturing plant. Roger wants to build a factory in Haishi, and I'll take over here. You're the only one who can go now."

"No problem. When do we leave? Will I be able to make it back for Cheng Guangxiu's wedding?"

"We're leaving immediately. We probably won't make it. You'll be responsible for translating for Lu Jing."

"Okay. I'll get ready right away. I'll wait by the car in ten minutes."

"Lu Jing, Cai Peilin can be trusted."

"Okay, I understand. My job is to oversee the production and sales over there, right?"

"Yes. The company over there is already on track, so you just need to keep an eye on it and make sure there are no problems."

After seeing the two of them off, Wang Ying and Zeng Zhongkang came over.

“Hongmei, it’s not a good idea for you to send Lu Jing out.”

"It's okay, I'll move back to the compound after Sister Erya gets married."

"Didn't you say you didn't want to go?"

"Yes, but my situation is the same no matter where I am. I can't go anywhere, so I might as well go back to the compound."

Wang Ying knew that the leadership had long wanted Hongmei to move back, but that place wasn't easy to enter. It was very safe, but it also meant losing her freedom.

"Alright, it's time for you to eat. Would you like to eat at the restaurant, or here?"

"Let's go to the dining room, I'll get some exercise there too."

Zeng Zhongkang didn't say a word, just silently followed behind the two. In truth, he wanted to go and help, but Zhang Hongmei chose Cai Peilin.

The old lady and Gu Chuanming sat in the living room drinking tea.

"Why did you send Lu Jing out again? I'll give you all my bodyguards after you give birth."

"Hehe, Grandpa, how many men do you still have?"

Thirty-five.

"Sure, they'll come in handy if you give them all to me."

"Alright, she's gone." The old lady was very protective of her own and couldn't stand anyone saying anything bad about Zhang Hongmei.

"Great-Grandma, Grandpa, after Sister Erya gets married, we'll move to the compound to live."

Gu Chuanming had no objections; it was all the same to him, and the old lady didn't care either. He was fine wherever he was, as long as Zhang Hongmei was by his side.

However, the old lady thought to herself, "This must be Zhang Shouyi's idea, right?"

"Well, not entirely. He told me a long time ago that I didn't want to move there, but given my current situation, it's the same no matter where I am, so I might as well move there!"

"You good-for-nothing!"

Zhang Hongmei could only force a smile, knowing that the old lady was dissatisfied with Zhang Shouyi, but she couldn't say anything now, lest she make a mistake.

"Auntie, will you take me with you?"

"Take it with you! Someone will pick you up and drop you off at school from now on."

Zhang Hongmei's words calmed the child's mind.

Zhang Hongmei only ate a few wontons, then stubbornly made Liu Jingsong eat them for her.

“Hongmei, you can’t do this. If you don’t eat enough at night, your baby will be born weak.”

"It's too milk, I really can't eat anymore."

The old lady shook her head. This child is spoiled rotten. If this were Liujiatun, you wouldn't even have anything to eat.

Liu Jingsong accompanied Zhang Hongmei for a stroll in the yard. "Auntie, when do you think your little brother will be born?"

"It's a little sister, a little sister as cute as Niu Niu."

"It's my younger brother!"

But I think it's my younger sister!

"It's my younger brother!"

Zhang Hongmei decided to stop arguing with a child.

"Jingsong, your third uncle and the others will bring the little brother over."

"Really? When are my third uncle and aunt coming?"

"You'll see it tomorrow, and you can play with your little brother then."

"Okay, I will definitely take good care of my little brother."

"Hehe, my Jingsong is such a good older brother."
