Ye Qingqing rolled her eyes. Thirty years old? How can that be old?

"Teacher, there's an old lady in America named Grandma Moses. For the first 76 years of her life, she was a housewife, taking care of her whole family's needs. When she was 76, she suddenly wanted to learn to paint, so she did. She did quite well, even held a solo exhibition, and became a household name. The old lady said that as long as you're doing what you love, it's never too late, even at 80. You're only 30, what are you afraid of!"

Ye Qingqing recounted a news story she had seen in her previous life, a true story: an old lady who lived to be 101 years old and passed away in the 1960s, leaving behind more than a thousand paintings. She admired this old lady quite a bit. At 76, most old ladies were enjoying their retirement, but this old lady's life was just beginning, and she was living a more and more wonderful life.

Mao Fangfei was deeply moved, her eyes sparkling.

"Let me mention someone you're familiar with, Junichi Watanabe, right? You must have read his novel, 'Paradise Lost, Teacher,' right? Do you know how Junichi Watanabe embarked on his literary career?" Ye Qingqing asked again.

Mao Fangfei shook her head. She had indeed read Paradise Lost and liked the author's delicate descriptions of women, which were so realistic. But she really didn't know the author's experiences.

The internet wasn't very developed in the 1990s, and there were many things that people didn't know about even in China, let alone abroad. It's normal that Mao Fangfei didn't know, and Ye Qingqing was able to know more thanks to her past life.

Ye Qingqing swallowed and continued to act as a life mentor, "Junichi Watanabe studied medicine because being a doctor is a respectable and noble profession that can earn a lot of money. Writers, on the other hand, have no fixed abode and their income is even more unstable. Junichi Watanabe has thought about becoming a full-time writer countless times, but he doesn't dare to give up being a doctor because he's afraid he can't handle the pressure."

"But he was still not satisfied. When he was twenty-eight, he wrote a letter to Grandma Moses, telling her about his troubles. Grandma Moses was already one hundred years old at the time and replied with a postcard."

Ye Qingqing stopped listening intently, but suddenly her attention went blank. She asked anxiously, "What did Grandma Moses say?"

I never imagined that her favorite author had such a harrowing experience, which is so similar to her current situation!

Ye Qingqing cleared her throat. "I don't remember the exact words, but the gist was, 'Child, do what you love, and God will gladly open the door to success for you, even if you are already 80 years old.' This sentence inspired Junichi Watanabe, and he began to write in his spare time. When he was thirty-seven, one of his works finally won an award. Only then did he resign from his job as a doctor and become a full-time writer, writing so many popular works."

Mao Fangfei's eyes were dazzlingly bright. Even a great writer like Junichi Watanabe didn't start realizing his dreams until he was thirty. What did she have to hesitate about?

She gritted her teeth and patted Ye Qingqing hard on the shoulder. "I've made up my mind. I'll quit my job after teaching you all this semester. I'm going to take the forensic exam. If I don't pass the first time, I'll take it two or three times. I'll pass it eventually!"

The woman who had been hesitant and uncertain before has disappeared and has now become a spirited fighter. Ye Qingqing is very gratified to see this. She has cultivated another elite for society!

Take Zhao Di, for example. She listened to her advice, studied hard, worked diligently, and is now an accountant at a machinery factory. She is also preparing for the CPA exam, and her future is limitless!

Mao Fangfei has solid professional knowledge and will definitely become an excellent forensic doctor in the future. She deserves half the credit for this!
