So Huakai didn't say anything, but instead ate a piece of candy.
She hadn't expected that this cold-faced man in front of her would like to eat candy, especially candy packaged in such a delicate little tin box, which actually seemed quite cute.
They arrived at the school gate quickly. Hua Kai got out of the car, smiled at Ye Yifan, and said, "Thank you." Not knowing what else to say, she could only say thank you.
Ye Yifan smiled and said, "You're welcome. If you need anything, just go to Xiaoxue. If he can't solve it, he'll come to me."
Hua Kai agreed, "Okay, then drive carefully."
Ye Yifan nodded: "Goodbye."
Hua Kai waved to Ye Yifan and headed towards the dormitory.
Ye Yifan watched Hua Kai's retreating figure walk for a while before driving away.
Hua Kai returned to her dorm, but no one was there, so she went to the classroom to continue drawing the blueprints. She planned to finish them during tonight's self-study session and then submit them and communicate with the foreman tomorrow at noon.
Of course, once this job is settled, I need to take on new jobs, and then I need to rent a house for my older brother. It can't be too far away, otherwise it will be inconvenient for me to go there, and the price can't be too high, otherwise it will put pressure on my older brother to live there.
While Hua Kai was thinking about how to improve, the step-grandmother of Cuishan Village was scolding Hua Kai with her second son's family.
"Grandma, you saw it, Hua Kai is like she's possessed by a ghost. She hit me again today. We can't just let this go, can we?" Hua Lin said through gritted teeth, her face bearing a bright red handprint.
Zheng Shuzhen frowned and sighed repeatedly: "This matter is not easy to handle today. With Captain Ye involved, we were in the wrong to begin with. If this matter escalates, we will not gain anything."
Hua Lin's mother, Huo Yanping, looked the worst: "You mean Captain Ye is helping Hua Kai? And you're even going to send Hua Kai to the city?"
Hua Lin didn't want Hua Kai and Ye Yifan to be really that close, so she quickly shook her head: "No, Mom, it's just that it's on the way. Captain Ye is giving Hua Kai a ride."
Hua Lin's father, Hua Wanhe, rolled his eyes at Hua Lin: "Look at you, you always said you were smarter than Hua Kai, but now I realize that your cleverness is all superficial. Hua Kai is just pretending to be weak while actually being strong. She's hooked up with Captain Ye, and his whole family will rise to prominence with her."
Zheng Shuzhen sighed again: "Sigh, it's only because Huakai went to high school. If Huakai couldn't go to school and stayed at home farming, would a college student from the city even look at her? I really didn't expect that Huakai could go to school. It's because I've been too lax in keeping an eye on them these past two years."
Hearing this, Hua Lin suddenly had an idea: "What if we prevent Hua Kai from going to school? Being good-looking won't help. A city person like Captain Ye's parents would never let their son marry a rural woman."
Zheng Shuzhen nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes, we would definitely not agree either. What's the use of marrying a penniless vixen with only a pretty face?" After saying that, she looked at Hua Lin and asked: "But how can we let Hua Kai not be able to go to school?"
Hua Lin was very excited at this moment: "Grandma, you forgot that my third cousin works in the Education Bureau. Tomorrow, I'll have my dad go to my third cousin. My dad is Hua Kai's elder, so he can say that he will help Hua Kai get out of school. Plus, my third cousin has pressure on the teachers, so how could this not work? After it's done, I'll have my dad take out Hua Kai's file and change or destroy it. If she wants to go to school again, she can only dream about it."
Huo Yanping spoke with absolute confidence about her third cousin: "My father once saved my aunt's life, so they'll definitely help with this little thing."
Zheng Shuzhen smiled upon hearing this: "I had forgotten about the child's cousin. Wanhe will go to the city tomorrow. Oh, and kill two chickens tonight for the child's cousin to take with him tomorrow. We can't trouble him for nothing."
Huo Yanping said, "Mother, we're all family, no need for formalities."
Hua Wanhe was also pleased: "Yanping is right, no need to be so polite. How about this, I'll go tomorrow around noon and treat Xiaohai to a meal at a restaurant, and then I'll take care of Huakai's business in the afternoon."
At this point, these people seemed to see Hua Kai dropping out of school and returning home, chatting and laughing inside, even happier than during a festival.
Of course, Hua Kai was unaware of these things and didn't take them to heart. After dinner, she returned to the classroom to prepare for evening self-study.
After the preparatory bell rang, a letter was passed through the back door and eventually reached Huakai.
Hua Kai looked at the letter with a little nervousness because it was folded into a heart shape, clearly a love letter. This was the first time she had received a love letter since coming to this world. Although she didn't know who wrote it, she was still a little excited.
Opening the letter and looking at the naive confession, she seemed to have a deeper understanding of the meaning of youth.
The love letter was written by a boy named Wei Chen from Class 1. Hua Kai didn't have any impression of him. Anyway, she wasn't thinking about dating. She wasn't interested in boys who pursued her based on looks alone; they were too immature. She preferred someone more mature.
So she tore up a piece of paper, wrote "I'm sorry" on it, and simply and decisively refused, because if there was no possibility, she shouldn't leave the other person with any illusions.
After the first evening self-study session, Hua Kai asked Zhang Miao to deliver the reply to the boy named Wei Chen.
After Zhang Miao returned, she and Yu Hongdi inevitably sat by the flowers and gossiped for quite a while.
Fortunately, the break between classes was short, and Zhang Miao and Yu Hongdi went back to their seats for self-study. However, after school, Zhang Miao couldn't help but be curious for a while.
The next day at noon, Hua Kai took the blueprints to Section Chief Cheng's house. His wife was busy and couldn't come, but the workers did. So, after giving the blueprints to Section Chief Cheng, Hua Kai started talking to the leading worker.
The lead worker was named Yuan Changzhi, a man in his forties. He was a very honest person, and Hua Kai politely called him Uncle Yuan. She planned to start a decoration company with her older brother, not just focusing on design. If she could find a reliable person, he could become her foreman or something.
Yuan Changzhi was surprised and delighted by Hua Kai's explanation. He hadn't expected there to be such new developments in home renovation. This would give them more clients and advice, which would naturally improve their business.
The two chatted happily and quickly determined the direction of the construction. Hua Kai said that she would come to check on things regularly so that Yuan Changzhi could ask her any questions.
Hua Kai looked at the time and was about to say goodbye and go back for dinner when a young man walked in. He knew Section Chief Cheng.
After the two greeted each other, Section Chief Cheng introduced the man to Hua Kai, saying, "Xiao Hua, this is my colleague Meng Ming. His apartment is in the unit next door. He saw your drawings and is interested in your design. He wants to ask you about the renovation."
Hua Kai noticed that the young man looked quite young, probably someone who had just started working, but the fact that he had such a good relationship with the section chief meant that his family background must be good. It seemed that this business deal had a good chance of success.
She said to Meng Ming, "Hello, Comrade Meng. It just so happens that Section Chief Cheng has made all the arrangements. If it's convenient, could you take me to your home? I can then give you some advice based on the actual situation."
Meng Ming agreed, "Okay, then come with me to take a look." After saying that, he said to Section Chief Cheng, "Section Chief Cheng, we'll head over now, thank you."
Section Chief Cheng nodded: "Okay, you guys get back to work."
Hua Kai said to Section Chief Cheng, "Don't worry, Section Chief Cheng, I will follow up on your work the whole time, and I guarantee that the renovation will be as beautiful as the blueprints."
Section Chief Cheng smiled and said, "Then I'm relieved."
