The next morning, after taking care of the original owner's academic matters at school, Bai Yan went home.
"If you ask me, girls shouldn't be too ambitious. What's the point of going to a prestigious university?" Neighbor Aunt Zhou said, "That's someone else's family after all.

Bai Yan chuckled, "Don't worry, Mom. I'm only working overtime this month because there's a lot going on at the company. My boss really values me." She took out another card from her bag: "Mom, this is my bonus from the boss. Guess how much it is?"
