I learned Hiragana and Katakana from [tofugu.com](https://tofugu.com), and currently learning basic sentences and grammars using Genki1 text book.
After a bit of trying, I’m guessing that it might be more efficient for me if I could find a text book that teaches the very basic grammars but mainly using Kanji characters with Hiragana on top of them (I understand the meaning of Kanji characters but don’t know how to read them)
Is there such a text book that you could recommend? Thanks!

Minna no Nihongo fits the bill quite well. I would imagine they even have a Chinese version of the Grammar guide.
I recommend 穩紮穩打！新日本語能力試驗 series for learning grammar. English resources for learning Japanese are usually terrible compared to the Chinese ones.
I also recommend the following books, but they mostly just focus on the trickier grammar points or word nuances, not as comprehensive and detailed as 穩紮穩打！新日本語能力試驗 series.
日語大跳級 (super helpful, it’s really all you need after learning some really basic Japanese to start reading native Japanese text, given you also have a decent Chinese vocabulary. The drawback of this book is that it doesn’t have any furigana to any kanji)
王可樂的日文超圖解 (it explains a lot of subtle grammar points)
日語助詞王
你以為你懂，但你其實不懂的日語Q&A (explains even more subtle grammar points, but it’s a bit on the dry side, and most of the contents are covered in 穩紮穩打！新日本語能力試驗 N4 and n3 though, they are written by the same author)
