However, after leaving the factory, Hua Wanjiang gave Hua Kai some new instructions, saying, "Kai Kai, the cost of this factory cannot be low. You just draw up some plans. We can't be greedy. As for how to allocate the money, you can listen to Xiao Fan."
Hua Kai nodded: "I know, Dad. I haven't told Ye Yifan about this yet. I'll give him whatever amount he gives me."
Hua Wanjiang said, "That's right, we'll accept whatever they give us. Even if it's only 10%, we won't object. They've helped us so much already."
"Okay, don't worry about this, Dad."
“I trust you to do things, but you’re young, so listen to Xiao Fan more often. That kid is kind-hearted and won’t lie to you.”
"Don't worry, Dad, your daughter isn't stupid."
Once in the car, Hua Kai suggested eating at a restaurant, but Hua Wanjiang disagreed, saying it wouldn't be a waste of money and that they should just go back to their rented apartment and have some noodles or something. He said they would bring Gu Lanyan and Hua Qingyang next time so the whole family could eat out together. He felt uncomfortable going alone this time.
Having said that, Hua Kai couldn't hold on any longer, so they went back to their rented house.
Hua Wanjiang hadn't been to the rented house before, so today was a good opportunity to go and take a look, and also to bring over the steamed buns he brought, enough for Hua Qingyi to eat for the next two days.
Upon arriving at the rented apartment, Hua Wanjiang looked around and said, "This building isn't really that great. There's no yard at all, just one apartment right next to another. It's so cramped."
Hua Kai smiled as she listened to her father's words: "Dad, you are an ambitious person. Even if we buy a house in the city in the future, we will buy one with a yard, and a bigger one."
"Isn't that cheaper than this building?" Hua Wanjiang thought that the one that wasn't as tall as this one was guaranteed to be cheaper.
Hua Kai couldn't say how expensive the villas would be decades from now, so she just nodded and said, "Yes, we'll buy one when we've saved enough money."
Hua Wanjiang stared at the toilet for a long time: "This, didn't you just take it downstairs?"
Hua Kai explained the workings of the bathroom pipes to him, and also talked about heating and other things.
Hua Wanjiang understood this time and nodded in satisfaction: "So this is what the buildings in the city are like. There are some good places though, where you don't have to heat your own kang (heated brick bed) anymore."
Hua Kai smiled and said, "That's right. Heating will start in the next few days. Next time you come, you'll know how good the heating is. Socks washed the day before will be dry the next morning if you put them on the radiator."
Hua Wanjiang said, "Then the socks we washed the day before, we left them on the kang (heated brick bed) to dry, and they were dry by the next morning."
Hua Kai could tell that Hua Wanjiang was still not used to the environment, but she understood and said with a smile, "That's true, everyone has their strengths. Dad, please sit down, I'll go cook some noodles."
Hua Qingyi said, "You talk to Dad, I'll go cook."
Hua Kai said, "Then you cook the noodles, and I'll fry some bread slices."
The brother and sister went to the kitchen together and got busy.
Hua Wanjiang was also watching from the doorway, but he didn't know how to use the kitchen utensils and didn't dare to help.
It's all simple. Once the food is ready, Hua Kai will go back to school. Anyway, Hua Qingyi is familiar with everywhere now, so he can just take his father to the bus stop.
After school and dinner, Hua Kai helped Zhang Miao set up her stall when Guan Sheng came over and asked to speak to her privately.
Hua Kai followed him to a less crowded place, and seeing Guan Rui's expression, she knew what he was going to say: "Guan Rui, you really don't need to care so much about Lu Xue's matter. I've said it before, it has little to do with you. I also have my own reasons. Besides, no one can have a smooth life all the time. Isn't it normal for things to go wrong?"
Guan Rui looked very haggard these past few days: "No, if she just occasionally came to see you and said some unpleasant things, it wouldn't be a big deal. But she actually hired people to cause trouble for you, and it was illegal. You can see how dangerous it was. Even if you're alright, I still can't get over it."
"But I really feel guilty. I already felt like I owed you a lot, and now I really don't know what to say."
"Let's not talk about that. You're too worried. Children should focus on their studies, drawing, and doing what they're supposed to do. Don't worry about these trivial matters."
Guan Rui listened to Hua Kai's words, which sounded like those of an elder, and always felt that she could never truly understand Hua Kai or reach her heart.
He could only nod and say, "I understand."
Just then, a voice came from behind Huakai: "Huakai, you're really shameless. It's not enough that you're seducing Xiao Fan, you're seducing male classmates too?"
Hua Kai turned around and slapped Fang Nana across the face: "Don't speak before you've learned how to speak properly."
Fang Nana was a little dazed from being hit. She wanted to sit down and throw a tantrum, but Hua Kai covered her mouth, pinned her hands behind her back, and then dragged her to a secluded place.
Guan Rui, unaware of what was happening, quickly followed: "Hua Kai, are you alright? Should we call for help?"
Hua Kai smiled and looked at Guan Rui: "I can handle this thing, you don't need to worry about it."
Guan Rui couldn't rest easy and kept following her: "Hua Kai, just tell me what you need me for."
Hua Kai said, "Then let's watch the show. You can clap for me later."
Guan Rui followed Hua Kai, completely bewildered.
When they reached a small, rarely used alleyway filled with garbage, Hua Kai kicked Fang Nana to the ground: "Don't think about those crooked ways. Let me tell you, I have too many ways to get rid of you. I'll make sure you don't even know how you died. The two girls who bullied me a few days ago are in jail. What, you want to go in too?"
Fang Nana was still scared when she heard the voice from the prison: "Hua Kai, don't scare me, I'm not a child."
Hua Kai laughed: "It's okay if you don't believe me. You'll believe me when you go in. By the way, I don't want you to go in right now. I just want to beat you up every few days. Otherwise, I'll be so bored."
After saying that, Hua Kai squatted down in front of Fang Nana, pinched Fang Nana's face with one hand, and patted it a few times: "Is it fun? You're always thinking about bullying others, now you can try what it's like to be bullied."
"Hua Kai, I, and our Fang family, are not to be underestimated."
"So what? Do you think I'm someone you can just give away for free? Let me tell you, I'm not someone anyone can bully."
"Aren't you afraid I'll go to Brother Xiao Fan like this, let him see the marks you left on me, and let him know how vicious you are?"
"Hurry up and go. If Ye Yifan sees me hitting you, he'll probably burst out laughing. He loves seeing me being wild."
"Hua Kai, you shameless bastard!" Fang Nana lunged at Hua Kai like a madwoman, "I'll fight you to the death!"
Hua Kai grabbed Fang Nana's wrists with both hands: "Someone like you is no match for me. Since you want to humiliate yourself, I'll grant your wish."
After saying that, he picked up a wad of waste paper from the ground, stuffed it into Fang Nana's mouth, and then punched Fang Nana in the stomach a few times.
Fang Nana was gagging and crying out in pain.
Guan Rui, standing to the side, was dumbfounded.
Just then, a few high school students passed by. Hearing the commotion, they looked over. They recognized Hua Kai, but they didn't know what was going on and didn't dare to go forward. However, they knew that Hua Kai was no ordinary ruthless person.
