With things mostly settled, Gu An'an and her companion made an excuse that it was time to go find a friend and left.
"Sister An'an, you are really amazing."
Wang Wende felt like he was just a tool. Although he had made some preparations before coming, when it came time for him to actually perform, all he could do was crack pine nuts.
"You saw it clearly just now?"
Wang Wende nodded.
"Then it's up to you."
It would be a lie to say he wasn't nervous, but Wang Wende still gave himself a pep talk, "Okay."

Xiao Jun said last night when he got home that he wanted to apply for a job at a machinery factory or a steel factory because they have good benefits. They not only try to improve the food for their employees, but they also give out pine nuts, which are good for the brain."
"Now that you mention it, I remember. My mother said that the pine nuts were transported from Northeast China. The scene was quite spectacular back then."
