Ye Jianxiao shook his head and said, "You're too strong-willed, girl. Isn't Xiao Fan's yours?"
Hua Kai said, "If we have the ability, we should use it, otherwise it would be a waste. I will work hard with Yi Fan to make money in the future, and then help some people in need. Wouldn't that be more meaningful?"
Upon hearing Hua Kai's words, Ye Jianxiao nodded repeatedly: "That's what you think? I never expected you to have such awareness at such a young age. Good, good. I'll have to learn from you from now on."
Hua Kai scratched her head and said, "Grandpa, it's not that exaggerated."
Ye Jianxiao said, "This is not an exaggeration; it reflects a high level of awareness."
Ye Yifan looked at the two of them and smiled: "Shall we eat first? We can talk after we've eaten."
Ye Jianxiao nodded: "Yes, let's eat. You must be hungry. Qingyi just said he didn't eat enough at noon, but now that we're talking, you've forgotten about eating."
As they were talking, they began to prepare dinner.
At the dinner table, Hua Kai naturally didn't mention her relationship with Xiao He; she would have to talk to Ye Yifan about that later.
After dinner, the housekeeper cleaned up, so Huakai called Ye Yifan upstairs.
Once upstairs, Ye Yifan pulled Hua Kai into a tight embrace: "I have so much to tell you."
Hua Kai nestled in Ye Yifan's arms: "I also have a lot to tell you, and there's something else that I guess isn't over yet."
Ye Yifan frowned as he looked at the blooming flowers: "Could it be from my mother's side?"
Hua Kai nodded: "Mm."
Ye Yifan then asked, "Did Fang Lanlan come to see you?"
Hua Kai shook her head again: "It's not Fang Lanlan. I haven't seen Fang Lanlan yet. It's Chang Tingting again."
Ye Yifan pulled Hua Kai into his room, closed the door, and sat on the edge of the bed: "What does she want to do?"
"My aunt brought Chang Tingting to the shop to find me, saying she wanted Chang Tingting to help manage the business. After a few words, things got heated, and Chang Tingting tried to hit me. You know how good I am; if I hit her, my aunt will probably dislike me even more." Hua Kai briefly recounted the incident.
Ye Yifan frowned as he listened: "My mom is really... what can I say? You did the right thing. It's better that our relationship isn't public. For now, we'll just be a business partnership, so my mom can't use personal matters to make things difficult for you."
Hua Kai said, "Yes, it's right to wait a while before going public. I'm not ready right now either."
After saying that, Hua Kai said to Ye Yifan, "But I promise that my aunt won't let the matter of me hitting Chang Tingting go unresolved, and neither will Chang Tingting. So you need to be prepared, they will probably come to you with these things."
Ye Yifan laughed: "You know my personality. Can anyone control me?"
Hua Kai smiled and said, "That's true. Oh, by the way, Chang Tingting's family is in the clothing business. I want to teach the Chang family a lesson."
Ye Yifan said directly, "Don't worry about that, I'll find a way to get revenge for you."
Hua Kaixiao stood up and said, "I already have a plan. It will allow me to make money and get revenge at the same time. Wait for me a moment." As she spoke, she went to the guest room to get the blueprints from her backpack.
Ye Yifan followed Hua Kai into the guest room. After looking at a stack of clothing design sketches that Hua Kai had taken out, he looked at Hua Kai after reading a few pages and said, "I really don't know how many surprises you have in store for me?"
Hua Kai smiled and said, "There are many, and I won't hide them from you, but I still have a little secret that I can't tell you now. I promise I won't hide it from you when the time is right."
Ye Yifan said, "I know, I said I respect your privacy."
"Aside from that secret, which I can't tell you for now, I really have nothing else to hide from you."
"Silly girl, don't be so nervous, I believe you."
"Then help me find out which company is the biggest competitor of the Chang family's clothing factory. I'll take these design drawings and use them as a technology investment. The clothing factory wasn't originally my development direction. It's just to annoy the Chang family, so I only want 20% of the shares. I don't care about anything else. Just give me the drawings regularly."
Ye Yifan looked at the blooming flowers and said, "I've said it before, I'll take care of everything. If you don't have this idea, I have my own way of helping you get revenge. But if you do have your own idea, then I will naturally help you realize it."
"Then I'll leave it to you to find out."
"Okay, leave it to me. I have some business to attend to in the provincial capital this time, so I can stay for a few more days."
"That's great, I really don't want to go a week without seeing you."
"Me too. You know, every time I have a free moment this week, you're all I can think about."
Just then, footsteps came upstairs. Hua Qingyi was very tactful and spoke first: "Kaikai, Grandpa wants you to come downstairs to eat fruit."
Hua Kai, afraid that her older brother would overthink things, went straight out and said, "I know, brother, we'll come down right away."
Ye Yifan followed them out and went downstairs together. The little girl was still young, and he didn't want to worry the Hua family. He could wait.
After going downstairs, Ye Jianxiao invited Hua Kai to sit next to him.
Ye Yifan and Hua Qingyi sat side by side and chatted about everyday things.
The night was quiet, but it started snowing in the latter half of the night, and the yard was covered in white the next morning.
Hua Kai invited Ye Yifan and Hua Qingyi to go out and build a snowman together.
Ye Jianxiao took his camera outside and took pictures of them, saying he wanted to record such a wonderful moment.
After breakfast, Hua Qingyi went to the department store to buy some things. He planned to go home first tomorrow because Ye Yifan could stay in the provincial capital for a few days. Once the store in the provincial capital was stable, Hua Kai could go back to the city with Ye Yifan. So he wanted to go back early. He was worried that his parents would worry because he had been away for too many days.
Hua Kai and Ye Yifan had originally planned to go shopping together, but Hua Qingyi said it wasn't necessary and told them to go ahead with their shopping. He said he would just buy something as a token of his appreciation.
Hua Kai thought about it and didn't force him, because if she and Ye Yifan went together, it would have a different meaning. This time, she would let her older brother go and buy the things himself, and when she returned, she would buy some more as a token of her affection, which would have a different meaning.
Just as Hua Qingyi left, Hua Kai and Ye Yifan were about to go out when the phone rang at home.
Aunt Chen answered the phone, said a few words to Ye Yifan, and said it was his call.
Ye Yifan went over to answer the phone, said a few words, and then hung up.
Ye Jianxiao looked at Ye Yifan: "She's not your mother, is she?"
Ye Yifan nodded with a wry smile: "Exactly."
Hua Kai asked, "Are you going out?" Since she hadn't told Ye Jianxiao about that, she didn't ask any further questions.
Ye Yifan said, "Well, my mom wants me to go back home. Are you coming with me?"
Ye Jianxiao directly refused Ye Yifan, saying, "Kaikai isn't going. It's good that your relationship isn't public. It saves her from making trouble for Kaikai. You should use the old method: go and say as little as possible. She won't know anything. Just come back after you've said your piece."
This was also the method the grandfather and grandson used to deal with the other side. Because every time Xiao He asked Ye Yifan to go back, it was Fang Lanlan's idea many times. She said it was to get closer to Ye Yifan, but in fact it was all a trap.
