"He's an old general from the founding of the nation, Shen Zhenguo, whom I met recently. I helped him with a favor."
Jiang Chen explained to Gong Lin.
"No way, you actually know Elder Shen?" Gong Lin was startled, she too was aware of Elder Shen and immediately said with respectful intentions, "Since it's Elder Shen, then we must prepare a proper gift."
"This... I'll handle it, you don't need to worry!" Jiang Chen hesitated for a moment, then spoke softly.
Gong Lin glanced at Jiang Chen and nodded gently. She didn't know the old general and had no idea what gift to prepare. Since Jiang Chen knew him, the gift he would prepare should undoubtedly be more appropriate.
The two of them tidied up the dishes and utensils and returned to their respective rooms.
Lying in bed, Jiang Chen thought about Shen Zhenguo's birthday. Even though Shen had said there was no need for him to bring a gift, it definitely wouldn't be appropriate to arrive empty-handed. What should he do?
Right!
