Chapter 208: Heartbroken

"Secretary Chen, you're too kind," Xiao Han said with a smile.

"No, not at all," Secretary Chen responded with a smile. "In order to reward you for your excellent performance in the college entrance examination, the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government have decided to award you half a million in cash. We hope that in your future studies, you will work even harder and strive even more to become someone useful to the country and to society."

"Thank you, Secretary Chen," Xiao Han immediately nodded.

"Don't mention it," Secretary Chen said, lightly patting Xiao Han's shoulder. "They say talent often comes from humble beginnings, and it's true indeed. From such poor family circumstances, yet you've nurtured such an outstanding talent. Mrs. Xiao, you certainly deserve a lot of credit!"

Secretary Chen gave Mother Xiao a thumbs-up.
