Wen Nian tore the fried dough sticks into small pieces and dipped them into her soy milk. She nodded in agreement. "Don't worry, I'll take care of it. Mom, could you give me 100 yuan? I borrowed that money from my head teacher to pay for the taxi ride back to the village yesterday."
hou Mei walked back to her room and placed the money on the table. She gently tapped Wen Nian's head and said, "Don't lie next time."
Wen Nian quickly accepted the money and smiled brightly. "Got it."
After having a comfortable breakfast, Wen Nian sent a message to her brother and asked him to have lunch with her.
Wen Nian had been a bit too excited the previous night, and coupled with the leisurely breakfast at home, she ended up arriving a little late. As she hurried downstairs, she ran into Shen Jun by chance.
