When they got home, Wang Xinyi was sitting in the yard. "Honey, it's cold outside, let's go inside."
"It's okay, I just came out. I'm not a child anymore, don't worry. How was your day?"
"Everything is going smoothly. The machine has been arranged. I'll go raise the money tomorrow, and it should be ready to be loaded onto the ship in the next few days."
“Brother Zhao, I didn’t mean anything by it. If you don’t have enough money, just tell me. I still have money.”
"Hehe, not now. Keep your money for yourself."
"Hey! You really don't need to overthink it, we're family."
“I know. I’ve prepared 500,000. That’s all the assets I can use. But I’ve also kept enough working capital here. The business that Hongmei gave to the McCann family is generating nearly 10,000 in revenue this month. So don’t worry, I’ll be fine.”
Zhao Tiancheng helped Wang Xinyi and Shen Yunfang into the living room. At this time, Shen Yunfang was cooking, and the children had not yet returned home.
"Xinyi, Haozheng will be returning to China in a little over ten days. Is there anything you can tell him to do when he gets back?"
"Nothing's wrong, I'm all alone now. What else could it be? I heard from Hongmei that Liu Jingze is in charge of foreign business in China. This young man is from the same village as Hongmei, and he's always liked her. Don't worry, Haozheng will definitely not suffer any losses if he goes there."
Hongmei will definitely inform Liu Jingze and will be able to take good care of Haozheng.
"Hehe, I'm at ease letting Haozheng go back to China. It's definitely in the best interest of the two of us."
"Yes, Hongmei is a very caring girl, especially towards her own people."
“I can see that. Once you are accepted by her and considered one of her own, that’s definitely an advantage. You can tell from her attitude towards these international students.”
The two were chatting in the living room when they heard voices coming from the yard. It turned out that the four of them had returned. Haozheng and the other two usually didn't get back until after 10 p.m., as they had to go to work at the company for a few hours after school.
As parents, we are very gratified to see our young people working so hard.
"Hongmei, are you insulting me again?" Cheng Guangxu shouted aggrievedly.
"How could that be? I'm telling the truth, okay? Why are you so sensitive?"
Zeng Zhongkang and Cai Peilin followed behind, both with smiles on their faces. Only on the way home from school did the four of them have time and leisure to chat. Zhang Hongmei mainly teased Cheng Guangxu, while the other two just watched the show.
This method of relieving stress is really good. Back in school, the four of them hardly interacted with their classmates, focusing only on studying, so even with a good mindset, they were still quite repressed. Being able to joke around with each other is very satisfying for them.
The four people entered the living room. "Aunt Wang, how are you today?"
"I'm fine, I'm eating well and sleeping well, you don't need to worry about me."
Hurry up and wash up; dinner will be served soon.
Friday evening arrived in a flash. After finishing her call with Annie, Hongmei sat on the sofa with a smile. Kong Yushun and the others should be arriving soon. She could ask them if they had anything to bring home. There were only ten days left until the exams, and Zhao Haozheng's intention was to leave after the exams.
Carlos arranged for the flight to be on Friday, which means he could prepare to board the plane after the exam.
Zhang Shouyi had already made arrangements at X airport; someone would pick them up. People were also waiting at the port at G airport. Afterwards, they would transfer to a passenger ship and come directly by sea. This would save a considerable amount of time.
This is the route I'll take back to China. I definitely won't have to spend another twenty-plus days on the ship.
Half an hour later, Kong Yushun and his group arrived.
Dong Yuping leaned close to Wang Xinyi and said, "Aunt Wang, your belly has grown a lot bigger this month."
"Children grow fast. Everyone, please sit down. The exams are coming up soon, so let's give you a good boost today."
"That's great! The food I eat at school doesn't taste as good as the cornbread from home," Wang Minxia chimed in with a smile.
Two things happened to Jiang Mingyan, and she's been keeping a very low profile lately. She just greeted Wang Xinyi and Zhang Hongmei before going to help in the kitchen.
Are you guys confident about this exam?
"It's alright. I think I can pass." Dong Yuping was quite confident. At least she felt much better than Wang Minxia and Jiang Mingyan.
The others all agreed. "Hongmei, are the four of you taking the exam with the second-year students?"
Kong Yushun asked Zhang Hongmei, who was sitting opposite him.
"That should be the case. I didn't ask. It's fine either way. It doesn't matter."
"Hehe, the top scorer is different, so confident."
"Hehe, my confidence comes from reading the sophomore textbook five times and from the fact that we didn't have a single break. I've worked so hard, how could I not have this much confidence?"
Everyone was stunned for a moment. Yes, that top scholar was indeed very hardworking.
"Everyone's here. Zhao Hao is flying back to China next Friday. If you have any letters home, you can ask him to take them back for you."
They probably didn't know the news. After hearing it, they were all calculating in their minds who to write to. Although Zhang Hongmei said that the New Year photos had already been sent back, this time they could talk to their families directly.
"You don't need to rush. Once you've thought it through and written it down, just give it to Zhao Haozheng. You're all from the same school, so it's very easy for you to meet him."
I didn't go anywhere on Saturday and Sunday; I spent all my time in the research group. Although I'm not feeling inspired right now, I can still work on some things in that quiet environment.
In the last week before the exam, all four of them relaxed at the same time. This wasn't because they stopped studying or reading, but because they relaxed mentally.
Cheng Guangxu and Cai Peilin stopped staying up late to study every day. They adjusted their mindset, and most importantly, they felt more confident. Besides, they had already reached this point, and after months of hard work, they weren't entirely without confidence.
The sophomore year exams were scheduled for two days. After the last exam on Friday, all four of them breathed a sigh of relief and waited for the notification.
He rushed home because he had to see Zhao Hao off at the airport that night.
They arrived home together. Shen Yunfang had prepared the meal early today, so they could eat as soon as they got home.
“Hongmei, I’ve received so many letters that they’ve filled a whole wallet.”
"Hehe, now you also have a job as a mail carrier."
"But I don't know how to deliver it?"
"Just leave it to the person in charge there. He'll handle it; you don't need to worry about it."
"That's alright, otherwise I wouldn't know what to do, as many of them are addresses in the capital."
"Keep the letters I'll give you with you at all times. One is for the person in charge, and the other is for the leader."
"Don't worry, this is absolutely safe. I still want to see the leader. It would be good to take advantage of the opportunity to deliver the letter to him and meet him."
