Just as Yao Tang had said, the future could wait. No matter what he wanted to do later on, no matter what position he would end up with, he was still in high school. He should cherish his youth and take the days as they came.
He could amass a fortune, but a time might come when he would have to spend it all. There was no guarantee that his family's business would always be afloat. Regardless of the crises that might occur, his knowledge and experiences would remain his own. No one would be able to take those away from him.
Knowledge was power, as the saying went. Now, with the significant improvement in his grades, he was eligible to get into a top university. If this had been in the past, such a thing would be inconceivable.
Meng Yang was simply treating them to a meal. It was nothing compared to everything Yao Tang had done for him, and he held the utmost respect and admiration for her.
The class cheered upon hearing his offer.
