It was after six in the evening when Li Julin got off work and returned home. The first thing he did when he entered was to ask Shen Mianmian about her exam, "The questions this year were a bit easier than last year's, Mianmian, did you find any of them particularly difficult?"
Since everyone present was familiar with her academic abilities, Shen Mianmian didn't feign modesty but instead told the truth directly, "Uncle Li, if nothing unexpected happens tomorrow, I should be able to get into Beijing University."
"Hmm," Li Julin nodded in satisfaction, "You still have exams tomorrow morning; don't be careless just because you're good at studying. After you finish your work, review the questions thoroughly."
He had to repeat this advice many times each year, but there were always some students who lost marks due to carelessness.
"I will," Shen Mianmian, not bothered by the repetition, nodded and took note of his advice.
