The brother and sister went to the kitchen. Hua Kai hadn't eaten enough that night. To be honest, she was thinking about Ye Yifan and was worried about him, so she didn't eat much. That's why we cooked more.
A moment later, Ye Yifan came out to pour out the water for washing her feet, and then the sound of washing her face was heard. After a while, Ye Yifan also went into the kitchen.
Hua Kai looked at Ye Yifan, who seemed much better, and said, "Wait a moment, the noodles will be ready soon."
Ye Yifan said, "Thank you for your help."
Hua Kai smiled and said, "Don't be so polite. Help me get the bowls and chopsticks." She knew that when people have pent-up feelings, it's better to do something to ease them.
Ye Yifan agreed and went to get the bowls and chopsticks.
Hua Qingyi took the pickled vegetables.
This busyness made the atmosphere cheerful.
After finishing their meal, Ye Yifan insisted on washing the dishes.
It was getting late, but Hua Kai didn't want Ye Yifan to go to sleep so early, lest he think about something that would keep him awake. It was better to let him get some more tired.
So he said to Ye Yifan, "Help me draw a picture for a while, I can't sleep tonight."
Ye Yifan guessed what Hua Kai meant and smiled: "Worried about me?"
Hua Kai smiled and said, "What do you think?"
Ye Yifan said, "I'm really fine now. Actually, I wasn't this dramatic before. I don't know why, but in front of you, I can't hold back the grievances in my heart."
Hearing this, Hua Kai felt a flutter in her heart. She lowered her head and said, "That's because you trust me. Aren't you the only one who knows my secrets?"
"So our relationship is incomparable to that of others."
"Yes, quickly draw the diagram for me."
The flowers changed the subject; the previous topic felt so ambiguous.
Ye Yifan didn't intend to confess his feelings right now, but he knew that Hua Kai liked him, and that was enough.
Because Ye Yifan was familiar with blueprints, he also knew the tools, and was indeed able to help Huakai.
Watching Hua Kai's professional drawing movements, he really couldn't understand how a high school student could draw such a landscape design so skillfully. This was not something that an ordinary person could learn just by reading a book.
Seeing that Ye Yifan was not speaking, Hua Kai looked at him and asked, "What's wrong? Is something still on your mind?"
Ye Yifan said, "No, it's just that your drawings are very pleasing to the eye, and I think you're very talented."
"Thank you for the compliment. I didn't learn these skills in a day or two. I know there are some things you're curious about, but I really can't tell you. Maybe one day when I do tell you, you won't believe me. Anyway, hand me the T-square." Hua Kai pointed to the ruler next to Ye Yifan.
"I believe whatever you say." Ye Yifan handed the T-square to Hua Kaidao.
"I believe you. Let's not think too much about it today. After you finish drawing with me, you can get a good night's sleep. No matter what happens in the future, I'll stand by you."
"Hua Kai, I'm sorry for causing you so much trouble."
"I've caused you a lot of trouble, so don't stand on ceremony with me."
Hua Qingyi put the blankets away, then came out and sat down to talk to them.
They didn't fall asleep until late at night.
The next morning, when Hua Kai got up, Ye Yifan had already bought breakfast and returned. Hua Qingyi also boiled a few eggs, making for a very substantial breakfast.
After finishing her meal, Ye Yifan delivered flowers to the school gate before heading off to work.
Because Xiao He left, Hua Kai focused her attention back on business and studies.
When Gu Xiaoxue's shop opened this weekend, Hua Kai and Ye Yifan naturally went there early.
Meng Jing is here today too. Gu Xiaoxue's aunts and other aunts are all surrounding Meng Jing, asking her all sorts of questions. Meng Jing is not young anymore, and she understands what everyone is thinking. To be honest, she has feelings for Gu Xiaoxue.
However, Gu Xiaoxue always thought that it was just her elders in the family playing matchmaker, so she never seriously thought about it.
Seeing Meng Jing surrounded by her aunts, he went over and made an excuse to call Meng Jing aside, saying apologetically, "I'm sorry, my aunts are just anxious about my marriage. Don't mind what they say."
Meng Jing was initially quite happy, but upon hearing Gu Xiaoxue's words, her expression turned serious: "I didn't mind, don't worry, I'm not so bad that I can't get married."
Gu Xiaoxue was a little puzzled. Meng Jing was perfectly fine, so why was she talking like this? Was it because her aunts had said too much earlier?
"No, that's not what I meant. I was just worried that my aunt and the others would bother you too much," Gu Xiaoxue quickly explained.
Hua Kai and Ye Yifan, who were not far away, noticed that the two of them looked upset. It was almost auspicious time, and they didn't want them to get really angry, which would affect the opening. So the two of them quickly went over.
Hua Kai said to Ye Yifan, "Didn't you say you were going to talk to Director Gu about the ribbon-cutting ceremony later?"
Ye Yifan understood immediately and said, "Yes, Xiaoxue, come with me for a moment."
Watching the two go to the door, Hua Kai pulled Meng Jing aside and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you angry on such a joyous day?"
Meng Jing frowned: "I thought he did it on purpose, but I was just being presumptuous."
Hua Kai paused for a moment before understanding Meng Jing's meaning: "You like Director Gu, don't you?"
Meng Jing nodded: "Yeah, I didn't think so before. I've had dinner with him a few times recently, and my aunt and uncle are all very nice. I like their family, but he doesn't seem to be interested in me."
Hua Kai smiled and said, "How do you know it's not interesting? If it weren't interesting, he wouldn't have asked you to dinner. Maybe he hasn't thought about it yet, or maybe he's afraid that his family is putting too much pressure on you."
Really?
"Of course, and he's single and hasn't said he doesn't like you. Since you're interested, then give it a try. It's not always the man who takes the initiative, right? Director Gu is actually a very nice person."
