Ye Yifan turned to look at Chang Tingting: "If you cause Hua Kai trouble again, I won't be polite to you."
Chang Tingting looked at Ye Yifan with a wronged expression: "Brother Xiaofan, I've already apologized to Huakai. I didn't do it on purpose. Can't she be a little more magnanimous?"
Ye Yifan's face had already turned ugly: "Chang Tingting, can't you have any shame?"
Chang Tingting blushed deeply after Ye Yifan's words: "Brother Xiaofan, can't we just sit down and talk calmly?"
"I have nothing to say to you," Ye Yifan said, and walked straight to his office.
Hua Kai followed Ye Yifan into the office and closed the door.
Chang Tingting had no choice but to leave.
In the afternoon, the two went to see Ye Jianxiao again. When they were in the provincial capital, Hua Kai felt that she should visit the old man more often if she had nothing else to do.
On the way, Hua Kai and Ye Yifan also talked about Chang Tingting, because it was related to Xiao He, Fang Lanlan, and other members of Ye Yifan's family.
Hua Kai said, "I think Fang Lanlan doesn't want you to be happy, but why did she try to match you up with Chang Tingting? After all, Chang Tingting's family is very well-off. If you were together, it would be a good match, and it wouldn't do you any harm, right?"
Ye Yifan smiled and said, "Because Fang Lanlan knows that I can't possibly like Chang Tingting, and I can't possibly marry someone I don't like. That's where her cleverness lies. You see, everything she does seems to be for my own good. That way, my mother will also think she's doing a good job. In the end, if I disagree with this, it will be my fault."
Hua Kai suddenly realized, "My God, I always thought I was pretty smart, but I never imagined I'd been blinded and confused by this."
Ye Yifan sighed and said, "That's because you don't understand Fang Lanlan. I've known her for so many years, I know her too well. She's always been like this since we were little. I've been tricked so many times, so I naturally understand."
"Sigh, what do you say that your mother doesn't believe? Your family is being controlled by Fang Lanlan like this. I really don't know what to say."
“I used to think my parents were heartless, but now I’m not so upset. I even feel sorry for them. They’ve been led by the nose and blindfolded by others their whole lives.”
"That's true, the Fang family really screwed over your family."
"There are too many times when things could have been changed, but my mother is willing to be in this scam, what can I say?"
"That's true. Let's take it one step at a time. Anyway, we'll become strong on our own, take good care of Grandpa, repay those who are good to us, and be lenient with those who are not."
"Yeah, I've come to terms with it now. With you here, I feel like there's nothing I can't get through."
"Oh right, Li Hui invited us to dinner sometime. Let's not eat at Grandpa's tonight, let's go to Brother Li's instead?"
"That's fine. After I finish this busy period, I'll have a holiday before the Lunar New Year. The factory and shop will gradually close, and I'll have more time to spend with Grandpa."
“I also need to come over before the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, so I can spend a few more days with Grandpa.”
The two talked until they arrived at Ye Jianxiao's house. After chatting for a while, they went to Li Hui's place.
Li Hui was very happy to see the two of them. He asked them to sit down and said he would make some of his signature dishes and have a few drinks.
Hua Kai looked at the small eatery. It wasn't big, only about 40 or 50 square meters, with four tables. But the customer traffic was decent. When they arrived, there were two tables eating. Although they only ordered two stir-fries and some beer, it was good to have customers.
Hua Kai stood up, went outside to look around. This was the entrance to a residential area, and there was a night market next door. This place would be perfect for a barbecue restaurant.
There weren't many barbecue restaurants in the north at that time, so if you could guarantee the taste, you could definitely make money in that area.
Ye Yifan knew she had an idea just by looking at the blooming flowers, so he walked up behind her and asked, "What's on your mind? Let me give you some advice?"
Hua Kai smiled and said, "I do have some ideas. You've had barbecue before, right?"
Ye Yifan nodded: "Yes, I've eaten."
Hua Kai then asked, "Do you like to eat it?"
Ye Yifan nodded again: "It's alright." Then he asked, "You want Brother Li to open a barbecue restaurant?"
Hua Kai didn't deny it: "Hmm, do you think it can work?"
Ye Yifan also looked around at the surrounding environment: "You know what, it's actually worth a try."
"The main reason is that the cost is not high. If the taste and quality are good, this place will not lack customers."
Do you have a barbecue recipe?
"Of course, don't worry, I have a plan for everything I can think of."
"Shall we discuss this with Brother Li?"
"Well, it's almost the end of the year, so I guess we won't be able to open for business for a while. I'll write down the recipe for him first, and then let him try making some. He can also adjust the recipe according to the actual situation. We can open for business after the New Year."
How many secrets do you have that no one knows about?
"There are plenty of surprises. Anyway, since you married me, you'll never lack surprises in this life."
At this moment, Li Hui came out and greeted them, saying, "The dishes are ready. I'll heat up the wine, and then we can eat."
Ye Yifan said, "I'll warm the wine for you," and went over to help.
Hua Kai followed her in, saying, "I'll help get the bowls and chopsticks."
Before long, the food and drinks were all set out, and no new guests arrived. One of the two tables next to us finished eating and left, while two men at the other table were drinking, which didn't bother them.
After sitting down, Ye Yifan poured wine for Li Hui: "I've been so busy lately, I haven't been able to come over much."
Li Hui said, "I understand that you're busy, with both a job and a business."
Ye Yifan picked up his wine cup and said, "Let's have one first."
After the two had a drink, Li Hui poured them more drinks and then said to Ye Yifan, "I'm so happy for you that you've found someone you like. Let's have another drink."
Ye Yifan drank another cup of wine with Li Hui.
Hua Kai knew that Ye Yifan had a good alcohol tolerance, so she didn't say much and ate some food on the side.
Ye Yifan said to Li Hui, "Brother Li, if you really meet the right person, don't miss out. It's actually quite nice to have someone who understands you."
Li Hui said, "Even if I didn't want to take advantage of the girl, I have nothing to offer, I'm old, and I've even been to jail before. Who would want me?"
Hua Kai disagreed with his statement: "You are a good person. You went to the police station not because you broke the law, but because you did a good deed. I believe that if someone really understands you, they will like you."
Li Hui smiled and said, "I don't want to think about that anymore, and I don't ask for that much."
Hua Kai said, "Actually, I think matters of the heart depend on fate. I never thought I would meet Ye Yifan before. I also thought that living alone for the rest of my life would be fine, but now that I've met him, I think I shouldn't miss the chance."
Ye Yifan looked at Hua Kai: "You're only in your first year of high school, and you're already thinking about spending your whole life alone?"
Hua Kai blurted out her thoughts from her past life, and they just came out without her noticing.
She quickly replied, "It was just a thought."
Li Hui looked at the two of them and laughed: "I must say, you two are quite a good match. Xiao Fan said the same thing before."
