Me at two years old, a queen!

Upon hearing this, Lu Junxing, who hadn't yet swallowed the wax apple in his mouth, suddenly hesitated, wondering whether he should continue eating: "What do you want?"

"Hehe~, Teacher Yu said our test papers need to be corrected and signed!"

As she spoke, An'an tugged at the man's sleeve and said in a spoiled tone, "Daddy~, you ate someone else's fruit, so you'll sign for it, right?"

Lu Junxing had been busy all day, even returning to the old house, and hadn't checked his phone all day. Only now did he pick it up and find a message from Qi Rongyu.

[Dad, our class finished its quiz today. Since An'an's Chinese score wasn't ideal, her teacher suggested that if possible, we let her correct her mistakes at home to prevent her from falling behind in the curriculum.]

Given that some assignments in the class previously required parental cooperation, the school asked parents to sign the assignments to encourage their completion. However, we discovered today that An'an had been signing her own assignments.

Considering you might be busy with work, and that An'an previously signed off on your homework, I imagine you haven't checked the daily progress reports and are unaware of An'an's daily homework and performance. Therefore, I'm sending you this message specifically...

Upon seeing the message, Lu Junxing realized that the parents' group had been set to "Do Not Disturb" at some point. He looked at An'an with a complicated expression and asked:

Where is your Chinese test paper?

Remembering that her father still needed to sign her name, An'an happily started looking for it, but unfortunately, Poly Plaza was a mess. In the end, An'an emptied her backpack out.

Lu Junxing watched as the troublemaker rummaged through a pile of messy things before finally pulling out a crumpled test paper:

"Here you go, Dad~, sign this. Teacher Yu said it has to be Lu Junxing's name on it, so don't sign the wrong one~"

"You signed the wrong name? Whose name did you sign before?"

Lu Junxing then remembered what Qi Rongyu had just said: the homework she had asked her parents to sign was all signed by someone else. Could it be that she had asked someone else's father to sign it for her?

An'an then realized there was still a lollipop left in her schoolbag. She picked it up, stood on tiptoe, skillfully unwrapped it, and began to suck on the candy.

"Of course it belongs to them!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Junxing finally opened her exam paper. Seeing the bright red "28," Lu Junxing's heart pounded even harder than when Lu's stock price plummeted.

After taking a few deep breaths and calming himself for a few seconds, he suppressed his temper and looked at the pattern circled several times in black pen, asking:

"What does this pattern mean? Is it a mark your teacher made?"

"No, that's someone's signature, Dad. How come you don't even recognize someone's name? Have you become stupid too?"

Already irritated, Lu Junxing saw the little girl's irritating expression and directly tapped her on the head: "Who taught you to write your name like that?"

"You, Dad, isn't that how you sign your name, 'swish, swish, swish'? That's how everyone else signs theirs too!"

As she spoke, An'an covered her forehead in a wronged manner, picked up a pen, and quickly waved it in the air a few times: "That's it~,"

Lu Junxing immediately recognized this as a troublemaker; mimicking his usual way of signing documents, he haphazardly signed the assignment.

An'an saw her father slump in his chair with her test paper in his hand, and quickly stuffed her pen into his big hand: "Dad~, Teacher Yu said this is only valid if you sign it!"

"She's still a little kid, she can't sign her name in such big letters, she can only sign in small letters,"

An'an pointed to the name she had written in regular script on the test paper and said to Lu Junxing, "But this character is also very big, not small at all. Dad~, does Teacher Yu have bad eyesight like Great-Grandpa?"

Lu Junxing felt a terrible headache coming on. He solemnly told her that she should respect her teachers and not judge others casually. An'an was a little dizzy from the lecture, but she nodded.

"I'm sorry~, I know~"

She then grabbed the man's large hand, urging him to sign quickly: "Sign it, otherwise I'll be like a kid who can't finish their homework!"

Lu Junxing was about to sign, but when he saw the gleaming numbers, his hand involuntarily paused. He felt it was time to put his many family members to good use, so he said to the driver in the front seat:

"Change course! Go back to the old house!"

And so, the car, which was almost at its doorstep, turned in another direction and headed towards the old house.

On the other side, the two families who had also picked up their children changed direction after making a few phone calls.

Lu Junxing didn't delve too deeply into the matter of the forged signature, after all, it was his fault for not reviewing her daily performance report and for not explaining to her what the signing was all about.

That wasn't exactly her fault, but thinking about the grades gave Lu Junxing and the other two parents a headache. Wang Jinbao even had someone check the family genealogy, and only after learning that none of his ancestors had been intellectually disabled did he feel much more at ease.

Xu Tinglan was also holding Duo Duo's test paper, her face full of worry. It was only because she hadn't been getting tutoring or help with homework for a while that her grades had deteriorated to this extent.

Especially considering the questions on simple strokes, pinyin, and writing one's own name, the numbers on this test are indeed difficult to grasp.

Just as Ms. Song Yuan was serving the dishes, she heard the sound of a car in the courtyard. She looked at Lu Jing, who had returned early that day and was still in the old man's study.

Yanzhou came home early today and is learning horse stance from Zhao Jingtang, his master, at Zhao Yu'an's house next door, while also doing his homework. He also mentioned that he won't be eating at home today.

Ms. Song Yuan was puzzled and asked:

"Didn't Junmin say he was working overtime and then ate out with Qin Shuo? Why is he back?"

Aunt Liu finished serving the last dishes, and upon hearing this, she decided to go out and see what was happening. As she walked to the window, she saw a familiar small figure and exclaimed with delight:

"Oh my, who is it? It's An'an back! I'll go make two more dishes!"

Just as Ms. Song Yuan was about to take a look, An'an rushed in, pulling Lu Junxing along: "Grandma~, your little darling is here~, did you miss her?"
