Chapter 242: The Coolest Kid

Xiao Zheng: ...?

’She’s no trouble at all.’

’If anything were to happen to her—he’d be the one in deep trouble.’

’After all, Director Su places great importance on her.’

’And it wasn’t just him; Director Geng also thought very highly of her. Hadn’t he heard Director Geng call her Group Leader Fu?’

However, when it came to the welding, Fu Mingxue didn’t do it herself.

She discovered that the welder was, to her surprise, a young woman who was also an excellent welder.

Her technique was superb.

This wasn’t her specialty, so she had to ask the young woman for help.

This made Xiao Zheng breathe a huge sigh of relief.

He had been genuinely afraid she would insist on doing it herself.

Fu Mingxue just wanted to throw something together; it didn’t need to be particularly fancy.

So she took a set of bicycle handlebars.

The tires were readily available, of course.

And needless to say, there were plenty of other parts; after all, the bicycle factory was full of semi-finished materials.

In less than half a day, Fu Mingxue had her simple tricycle all put together.

She was exceptionally satisfied as she looked at the little green tricycle before her.

Xiao Zheng hadn’t expected the finished product to turn out so well. It made him want one for himself.

"Mr. Fu, this tricycle of yours looks amazing."

"Heh, I think so too. I have the painter to thank for it. They did such a beautiful job on my little trike."

’The paint job is top-notch.’

’It looks brand new.’

’If I ride this out, who wouldn’t say it’s a brand-new vehicle?’

’And another day, if I paint some designs on the three sides of the cargo bed, I’ll make everyone green with envy.’

"Alright, I should get going. If I wait any longer, it’ll be dark. Thank you for keeping me company all afternoon, Mr. Zheng. When you head back, please thank Director Su for me as well."

After speaking, Fu Mingxue climbed onto her little tricycle and rode off.

She had originally wanted to install a small motor, like the one on her bicycle.

But after giving it some thought, she decided against it.

"Ride safe, Mr. Fu," Xiao Zheng said, watching with envy as she rode away on her little tricycle.

’A little tricycle like this... it’s definitely the first one of its kind around here.’

’Tsk, how is this Mr. Fu so capable?’

’She even knows how to do something like this.’

As Fu Mingxue rode her little tricycle out of the bicycle factory, she drew the attention of the workers who were just getting off their shifts.

’Good heavens, is that a tricycle?’

’Since when did our factory start making these?’

Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, Fu Mingxue rode her tricycle home.

Not long after she left the factory gates, Director Su happened to run into Xiao Zheng.

"Oh? You’re back already? Where’s Mr. Fu?"

Xiao Zheng immediately replied, "Director Su, Mr. Fu has already left."

"Ah, she left already? So soon? What about her tricycle?" Director Su had come over because he remembered that Fu Mingxue was likely still at the factory.

He was going to invite her to dinner.

It would have been the perfect chance to see the tricycle she’d been tinkering with.

He never expected her to have left already.

’Wait, who took her home?’

The moment he heard the question about the tricycle, Xiao Zheng lit up with excitement. "Director Su, Mr. Fu’s tricycle is finished! She rode it home."

Now it was Director Su’s turn to be astonished. "What? Her tricycle is finished? Already?"

’What kind of speed is that?’

’It can take a whole afternoon just to repair a vehicle!’

’And she built a whole tricycle in a single afternoon?’

"That’s right. Aside from the cutting, which she did herself, our factory’s technicians helped out. With Mr. Fu giving directions, it was done in no time."

"Director Su, let me tell you—Mr. Fu’s tricycle is absolutely gorgeous. It’s made from our best materials, so it’s incredibly sturdy and stable."
