The cobbler looked at Lin Wu with a somewhat complex expression in his eyes. He pulled open the drawer under the sewing machine, took out a piece of white jade, and handed it to Lin Wu, saying, "Show this to Chi Yangzhi, and she will know you are my student. By then, I will also have contacted her in advance to tell her about you."
Lin Wu nodded his head, unconsciously gripping it tighter, but said nothing.
The cobbler gave an almost imperceptible sigh, "Don't push yourself too hard, girl. Do your best."
"I understand."
Lin Wu looked down at the white jade in his hand, round and smooth all over with no patterns, except for the character "Chi" outlined in the middle with silver thread.
The cobbler stared at her, then suddenly changed the subject, "Let's not talk about those frustrating things. Let's talk about you."
Lin Wu looked up at him, "I have nothing to say; it's still the same as before."
