After wrapping up all external affairs, Lin Yu'an's life swiftly returned to tranquility.
While dealing with academic issues, Lin Yu'an had another equally important and urgent matter to attend to.
It was to cash the million-dollar check lying quietly in his drawer.
On the second week of his intense study sessions, Lin Yu'an took half a day off and, together with Aliya, drove his second-hand Ford pickup to the downtown branch of the Bank of America.
When Lin Yu'an handed the million-dollar check along with his green card to the bank teller, the young teller's eyes widened upon seeing the amount on the check.
She confirmed it multiple times and immediately used the internal phone to respectfully contact her supervisor.
Soon, a middle-aged man dressed in a sharp suit, looking like a lobby manager, walked out briskly and politely invited Lin Yu'an and Aliya into the VIP reception room.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Lin, Ms. McKinley."
