Time flies, and a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

Under Leng Yue's management, Qianchen Pavilion has become the most popular tailor shop in the county. Sometimes they even receive customers from neighboring counties, and during the Spring Festival, villagers travel long distances from their villages to have clothes made. It's clear that Qianchen Pavilion is truly famous!

During this time, many people copied Qianchen Pavilion's clothing designs, but Lengyue updated its designs very quickly, always satisfying people's curiosity. In addition, Lengyue had very strict requirements for the quality of its clothes, and its employees were all trustworthy people, so Qianchen Pavilion was never surpassed.

Seeing that Qianchen Pavilion was on the right track, Leng Yue breathed a sigh of relief. She could finally move towards her next goal!

"Young boss, are you really leaving?" Li Xiaoling held Leng Yue's hand reluctantly.

"This is a rare opportunity, how could I not go?" Leng Yue smiled. Speaking of this, she still had to thank Teacher Zhang. If it weren't for Teacher Zhang's brilliant idea, she really didn't know when she would have been able to leave this place!

Speaking of Teacher Zhang, I have to say she's really kind-hearted. Despite always dressing like a haughty young lady, Teacher Zhang is actually very easygoing and loves to take care of people.

Because Teacher Zhang enjoyed having clothes made at Qianchen Pavilion, she quickly became acquainted with Leng Yue. Once people become familiar with each other, they understand each other better and can do more things together.

One day, on a whim, Teacher Zhang asked Leng Yue to paint her portrait, and Leng Yue did not refuse and painted it.

As soon as the painting was finished, Teacher Zhang hurriedly took the portrait and left, and didn't come back to Qianchen Pavilion for a long time.

Suddenly one day, Teacher Zhang appeared before Leng Yue again, handing her a letter of introduction, saying that Leng Yue could attend the art class at No. 1 High School and take the college entrance examination. And so, Leng Yue was admitted to the Beijing Academy of Fine Arts, and now she was just waiting for classes to begin.

Looking back now, Leng Yue still finds it a little funny. At the time, she was completely bewildered, yet Teacher Zhang had arranged everything perfectly for her.

Moreover, fearing she would refuse, Teacher Zhang even brought in Xie Juruo and Li Guilan as intermediaries. Leng Yue was like a puppet at the time, attending classes at No. 1 High School for a semester, then taking the college entrance examination, and now she's a student at the Academy of Fine Arts!

Leng Yue patted Li Xiaoling's head and whispered comfortingly, "Don't be sad, I'll be back during winter break."

In Leng Yue's eyes, Li Xiaoling was just a child, so he always pampered and coaxed her like a child.

But to outsiders, it was interesting to see that Li Xiaoling had grown taller this year and was now a head taller than Leng Yue, so she had to stand on tiptoe to touch Leng Yue's head.

Fine, she'd tiptoe, but Leng Yue even put on an elder's expression. Her still-chubby face was adorned with a doting smile, a stark contrast to her already chubby cheeks. Then another child, tall and strong, obediently lowered his head to let her touch him—the two were even more amusing in comparison.

Xie Ju smiled weakly and gently pulled Li Xiaoling away, "Alright, we'll miss the train if we're any later. Let your little boss leave."

Li Xiaoling reluctantly took a step back. "Little boss, remember to come back early during your holiday. I'll miss you when you're not here."

"Okay, okay, I'll bring you some delicious food later. I heard the roast duck there is really good." Leng Yue said with a smile.

Li Xiaoling swallowed hard and shook her head, saying, "I'm not a child anymore! Boss, food outside is expensive, I don't want that. Just make us something delicious when you come back!"

"Hahaha, this girl really has a sweet tooth!" He Cuihua laughed heartily, and everyone else laughed along with her.

"Yueyue, you must take good care of yourself over there. If you can't take care of Xiaoyuer, send him back so Mom and I can help look after him." Xie Juruo was the saddest. She had always treated Leng Yue and Leng Xiaoyuer as her own children, but she had never said it out loud. Before, it was okay because they lived nearby and she could visit them often. Now, the siblings had gone so far away, and it would be difficult for them to see each other in the future.

He Cuihua's smile faded; she knew her daughter well enough. Xie Juruo's health had improved significantly over the past year, undoubtedly thanks to Leng Yue and her brother. Their presence had given Xie Juruo renewed hope for the future. When someone has an emotional anchor, everything changes.

He Cuihua reached out and patted Xie Juruo, "Alright, the children will be back for the holidays, don't be sad. If you're really worried, we can go see them."

Xie Juruo nodded, but tears still clung to her eyelashes, making Leng Yue feel a pang of sadness. Leng Xiaoyu even hugged Xie Juruo and started crying.

"Auntie, don't be sad. If you're sad, Xiaoyuer will feel bad too!" Leng Xiaoyu and Leng Yue each called out their own names. Leng Yue called Xie Juruo Sister, and he called her Auntie.

Of course, their relationship was also better. Leng Xiaoyu often wandered around Xie Juruo's restaurant, just like he was at his own home.

"Don't cry, sweetie, Auntie won't cry either!" Xie Juruo said, but tears kept falling.

Leng Yue didn't stop them. She knew they had a very good relationship, and being separated so suddenly would definitely be painful for them. Li Guilan, standing to the side, also felt a pang of sadness. "Their relationship is so good, even biological children wouldn't be this close."

"Yes, I really hope she's my biological child..." He Cuihua couldn't help but blurt it out, but when she suddenly saw Li Guilan looking at her, she laughed it off.

Li Guilan didn't take it to heart, but instead instructed Leng Yue, "Yueyue, you must study hard and not let Teacher Zhang down. Your uncle originally wanted to come today, but there were things to do in the village. However, your uncle said that you are the first person from our village to be admitted to a university in the capital, and you are the pride of our village."

Li Guilan was genuinely happy, and it was rare for her to say something like that. Leng Yue listened attentively, nodding repeatedly.

"But you must take good care of yourself and Yu'er. If things get really bad, write home and we'll come and bring Yu'er back." Li Guilan was even more worried about the siblings, but Leng Yue and Leng Xiaoyu didn't want to be separated, so there was nothing else for them to say.

Of all the people seeing them off, the happiest was undoubtedly Teacher Zhang. She's quite famous at No. 1 High School now!

Before, when people talked about Teacher Zhang, the most common thing they said was that she loved to dress up. Now, when they talk about Teacher Zhang, they all say that she's a talent scout, able to find a gem even when making a garment! Anyway, Teacher Zhang is very pleased with herself!

"Leng Yue, study hard at school and try to design more and better clothes! Of course, it would be even better if you could share some with me..." Teacher Zhang really never forgets about clothes.

This remark made Li Xiaoling laugh out loud. "Teacher Zhang, no wonder our little boss said there was a catalog book specially prepared for you! So she already knew you would ask her to design clothes!"

"Really? That's great! I'm fine now, you two can chat!" Upon hearing this, Teacher Zhang happily ran off to talk to Li Xiaoling about the picture book.

With Teacher Zhang's arrival, Xie Juruo felt a little more at ease. She whispered to Leng Xiaoyu, her emotions calming down.

The time for farewells is always too short. At this moment, the time for the train to depart is getting closer and closer. All everyone can do is help carry the big bags and small bags and see Leng Yue onto the train.

The train slowly started moving under everyone's gaze, and Leng Yue knew that she was really about to embark on a new journey!
