“No matter how busy you are, you have to remember to eat breakfast!” Shi Sen couldn’t help but say, “If you stay up late but don’t eat breakfast, you’ll tire yourself out sooner or later!”

Upon hearing the girl’s reproachful tone, Yan Jing was a little puzzled. However, how did this little girl know that he had not eaten and had not slept the entire night?

Shi Sen recalled that in her previous life, not only did Professor Yan have very serious hypoglycemia, but he was also diagnosed with serious gastric problems in old age. “Only by taking good care of your body can you treat others! Don’t keep refusing to come to terms with your old age and refuse to listen to others!”

Hearing the girl’s words, Yan Jing looked even more puzzled. He was only 45 years old, so how was he old? Just as he was about to ask the girl, Yan Jing actually saw that the little girl beside him had teary eyes.

As Shi Sen looked at Professor Yan, she recalled many memories. After she became the dean, only Professor Yan still treated her as a child and took good care of her during work and in daily life. However, she didn’t notice that Professor Yan’s health was deteriorating.

As Shi Sen looked at the unfamiliar yet familiar face in front of him, tears slowly fell from the corners of Shi Sen’s eyes.

“What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?” Yan Jing was flustered by the little girl’s tears and couldn’t understand the situation.

“I’m fine. I just thought of my father.” Shi Sen lied, but Yan Jing looked enlightened.

Yan Jing felt that the little girl in front of him looked kind and because she had just helped him, he became more concerned about her.

“Your father’s health…” Yan Jing thought that the little girl’s father wasn’t in good health either, but he saw her shake her head.

“He passed away when I was very young.”

Yan Jing sympathized with the little girl in front of him even more, since it seemed that she had a tough life. Yan Jing stood up with Shi Sen’s help and said to her, “You’re a very kind child, so your father would be proud of you. I have to thank you properly for your help.”

After Shi Sen composed herself, in order to stay with Yan Jing for a while longer, she said,”It’s fine. Where do you want to go? I’ll send you off.”

“I’m going to the medical school in front. Come with me.” Yan Jing didn’t have any money with him, but he wanted to thank the little girl in front of him.

“Okay.” Hearing that Yan Jing was going to medical school, Shi Sen suddenly perked up.

While walking beside Professor Yan, Shi Sen revisited old haunts. The scene in front of her made her feel nostalgic.

“My name is Yan Jing and I’m a professor in the medical school. I haven’t asked for your name yet. Where do you attend school now?” As Yan Jing looked at Shi Sen kindly, he felt an inexplicable sense of friendliness.

“My name is Shi Sen. I’ve joined the training camp of the sports center and I’m taking the college entrance examination next year.”

“It’s not easy to enter the training camp, so it seems that you’re very outstanding.” Yan Jing had a smile on his face and didn’t notice the girl’s gradually darkening expression.

“Professor Yan!”

As a familiar figure walked towards them, Shi Sen clenched her fists and couldn’t help but tremble.

As Shi Sen looked at the face that she would never forget even if she became a ghost, she wanted to kill the man in front of her.

“Luo Yu, did something go wrong with the report again?” Yan Jing said to the gentle-looking boy in front of him.

“No, Professor. I still want to choose your class during my third year of university.” Luo Yu’s smile was very bright, and his tone was a little fawning as he said, “But I’m quite slow, so I’m wondering if you can give me a spot.”

Yan Jing’s class had always been popular. Luo Yu was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to attend Yan Jing’s class during his third year of university, so he asked the professor for help.

“This…” Yan Jing was in a difficult position. Luo Yu’s grades were not bad and he usually performed well, but this didn’t conform to the rules.

“Professor, please help me. In order to choose your class last year, I stood in front of the library for three hours!” When Luo Yu felt a chill down his spine, he noticed Shi Sen beside Yan Jing and asked with a smile, “Professor Yan, is this your daughter? She’s really good-looking!”

Luo Yu praised the girl beside Yan Jing generously. She looked young, but her facial features were very gorgeous. However, Luo Yu felt that this girl seemed to have an inexplicable sense of malice towards him and kept glaring at him.
