At 12:40 PM on Wednesday, Pan Jichuan, having just finished lunch, rushed to the plastic surgery center.
At this moment, Pan Jichuan was filled with an excitement he could barely contain.
'It's almost time to announce it to the world and bask in everyone's envious, jealous, and resentful stares.'
The day he had first told his father the good news, Pan Jichuan had been eager to announce it to the whole world, but his father stopped him.
His father told him it was best to let Mr. Yan announce the apprenticeship himself, or at least wait until he had Mr. Yan's permission to do so.
Pan Jichuan thought about it. Mr. Yan really hadn't said anything of the sort.
So his father told him to be patient a little longer.
After all, it wasn't unheard of for things like this to fall through at the last minute. It was better to say and do less to avoid displeasing Mr. Yan.
For the past two days, Pan Jichuan had been bottling it all up, and it was agonizing.
