At Shen Jingyan's insistence, Xu Honglin got his eighty yuan back.

"I wish you and all the other educated youth from the forest farm will get into your ideal universities! You're welcome to come visit me then!"

Xu Honglin felt that his wife and daughter Feifei would definitely like Shen Jingyan very much.

Xu Honglin couldn't help but marvel at how such a kind and intelligent girl could be raised in such a small mountain village. He wondered what kind of people her parents must be.

After seeing Xu Honglin off, Shen Jingyan turned around and bumped into An Zi, who ran over excitedly.

"Sister Jingya, what day is it today? You haven't forgotten, have you?"

Shen Jingyan took out an exquisite pocket watch from her pocket and waved it in front of Anzi.

"Today is your twelfth birthday, how could I forget!"

Anzi received the gift and quickly hung it around her neck, cherishing it dearly.

"That's great, Sister Jingya! I'm the first person in the whole school to have a pocket watch!"

Shen Jingyan led him back: "From now on, we can count down the seconds until get out of class is over, right?"

Anzi shook her head, looking ambitious: "No way! I want to study hard and go to university like you and Brother Gu!"

Shen Jingyan asked Anzi with some curiosity, "What do you want to be when you grow up?"

Anzi looked up at the sky, her bright eyes filled with longing: "I want to fly an airplane!"

He said calmly with a smile, "That's quite an ambition!"

Just then, Shen Yulan walked towards them.

"Jingya, I was just looking for you. I've cooked a whole table of dishes tonight to celebrate Anzi's birthday. Why don't you invite Xiao Gu and Professor Xu to come along?"

Anzi interjected, "Sister Jingya, did Brother Gu prepare a gift for me?"

Shen Jingyan flicked his forehead: "Isn't the gift I gave you enough?" Qian Qianren sneered.

An Zi raised her chin and said, "When you and Brother Gu were having a secret relationship, I was the one who relayed messages between you two. I did such a great service, shouldn't he give me something as a token of his appreciation?"

Shen Jingyan: Little brat, who taught you to be so shrewd?

In the evening, Shen Jingyan, Gu Zhiyun, and Professor Xu went to the Shen family's house for dinner.

Gu Zhiyun certainly didn't go empty-handed. When Anzi saw what he was holding, she jumped up from the kang (a heated brick bed) excitedly.
