Wandering among the heavens, learning has no end.

The school gate was full of cars, and students were gathered everywhere on the school playground.

At parent-teacher meetings, students are not allowed to stay in the classroom.

Some students might wait at the school gate until their parents arrive, then take them to the classroom.

This naturally excludes Lin Miaomiao.

She wouldn't dare go now.

She had already received the news that her father had failed, so her mother would be attending the parent-teacher conference instead.

She hid far away from the classroom and led Ji Yuan and Deng Xiaoqi to the playground.

On the playground, only the three of them were together.

Jiang Tianhao was conscripted by Lao Zhao to register the names of the arriving parents.

……

When Wang Shengnan arrived at the school, she found it full of students and teachers and quickly found the first-year experimental class.

As Jiang Tianhao entered the classroom, he stood at the door and called out to Wang Shengnan, "Auntie, please sign in first."

Upon hearing this, Wang Shengnan immediately picked up a pen, bent down, and signed her name after Lin Miaomiao's.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Tianhao greeted her, "Are you Miaomiao's mother? My name is Jiang Tianhao, and I'm good friends with Miaomiao."

"what……"

Wang Shengnan smiled.

She had heard of Jiang Tianhao; it seemed he had a good relationship with Ji Yuan.

Lin Miaomiao had mentioned at home that she only had two male classmates she got along well with: Ji Yuan and Jiang Tianhao.

"That's Miaomiao's seat, please sit down."

"Let me check Miaomiao's grades first."

Wang Shengnan did not sit down directly, but turned around to look at the mountain climbing picture surrounded by many people.

Jiang Tianhao ignored Wang Shengnan and continued to call on the other parents to sign in.

……

Wang Shengnan looked at the mountain climbing map and paused for a moment when she saw Ji Yuan's name at the top.

I was a little surprised. Was Ji Yuan's academic performance really that good?

She remembered that the second-ranked Qian Sanyi was the top scorer in the high school entrance exam who was hired by the elite high school for 500,000 yuan.

The top scorer in the high school entrance exam didn't even beat Ji Yuan in this month's monthly exam!?

Seeing how capable Ji Yuan was, Wang Shengnan was also quite pleased.

The main reason is that I think having such a great classmate will definitely help Lin Miaomiao with her studies.

Wang Shengnan continued reading.

The further down he went, the more serious his expression became.

He fell silent after seeing Lin Miaomiao's name in the last place.

Wang Shengnan turned around somewhat dazedly and walked to Lin Miaomiao's seat to sit down.

After sitting down, she noticed Lin Miaomiao's test paper on the table.

She flipped through the list and saw that the score was so low that she couldn't bear to look at it.

After looking at Lin Miaomiao's test paper, she remembered that Lin Miaomiao had told her that Ji Yuan was sitting in the seat behind her.

Wang Shengnan immediately turned her head. The seat behind her was empty, but Ji Yuan's test paper was also on the table.

This was Zhao Rongbao's instruction. Although none of his parents came to the parent-teacher meeting, Zhao Rongbao asked him to put the test paper on the table. He might need it when the parent-teacher meeting started, to show the students' parents the test paper of the student who ranked first in the grade.

Wang Shengnan reached out and took Ji Yuan's test paper.

He got full marks in all his science courses, but only lost a few points in his humanities courses.

These scores, this exam paper, this entire paper... it's pleasing to the eye no matter where you look at it.

Wang Shengnan glanced at Lin Miaomiao's again.

Large swaths of x.

Okay, I immediately felt a little heartbroken again.

Wang Shengnan also discovered something else: Ji Yuan's exam paper, and even her handwriting, was better than Lin Miaomiao's.

Wang Shengnan reluctantly put Ji Yuan's test paper back.

A thought inexplicably popped into my head: I wish this were my own child.

……

playground.

Lin Miaomiao sneezed.

"Oh no, oh no, oh no! My mom must be in the classroom by now and has seen my grades."

Xiaoqi, I might not live to see you again.

Lin Miaomiao spoke in a somewhat rambling manner.

Is your mom really that scary?

Deng Xiaoqi said this while filing her nails with something.

"Of course! It's not an exaggeration at all!"

"Luckily, my mom doesn't care about me."

Deng Xiaoqi sighed.

"What about your dad?"

Lin Miaomiao asked casually.

Deng Xiaoqi paused for a moment, then said somewhat hesitantly, "He doesn't care about me either."

"What amazing parents! I want parents like that too."

Lin Miaomiao said with a hint of envy.

Ji Yuan reached out and rubbed Lin Miaomiao's head: "Alright, stop complaining. If your grades were the same as mine, your mom would be so protective of you that she'd be afraid you'd fall."

"Well said. Don't say that again next time. If I were as capable as you, I wouldn't be afraid of my mom."

Lin Miaomiao couldn't help but roll her eyes.

Is that something a human could do?

She could pass nine exams, get perfect scores on several of them—even if you killed her, she couldn't do it.

……

Meanwhile, the parents' meeting started soon after.

Jiang Tianhao was alright, so he left the classroom and ran to the playground.

As soon as Jiang Tianhao arrived, Lin Miaomiao quickly asked, "Mouse, what was my mom's expression like when she saw my grades?"

Jiang Tianhao, with an expression that said "good luck to you," said, "I don't think it looks good..."

"Brothers, see you in the next life."

Lin Miaomiao's face was ashen.

"When you get back, apologize sincerely, and I'll put in a good word for you and talk to your aunt. She said you've been working hard lately."

It's only been a short time since the start of the first year of high school; it's never too late to start working hard.

Ji Yuan looked at Lin Miaomiao and said.

Lin Miaomiao looked at Ji Yuan, as if she had seen her savior: "Hero Ji, we are counting on you."

Why don't you just come home with me today?

"Is this your first time meeting your parents?!"

Jiang Tianhao looked like he was enjoying the gossip.

“It’s not the first time. I’ve been to her house before, and her aunt and uncle have also come to my house.”

Ji Yuan explained.

However, this explanation excited Jiang Tianhao even more.

I didn't make a mistake eating this melon.

Deng Xiaoqi looked at the two of them with great surprise.

Especially when looking at Lin Miaomiao.

Alright, Lin Miaomiao, you still say Ji Yuan doesn't like you, and that you two have no other relationship.

You've all developed to this extent!

Seeing their expressions, Lin Miaomiao immediately said, "Don't overthink it. He just came to our house for a meal, and my parents just came to his house for a meal."

"Mmm, I understand."

Jiang Tianhao smiled and nodded, as if he understood.

"That's right, it's just a simple and straightforward meeting with the parents."

Deng Xiaoqi added a sentence.

Lin Miaomiao rolled her eyes, too lazy to explain. Anyway, there was really nothing between her and Ji Yuan.

Lin Miaomiao looked at Ji Yuan: "Master Ji, will you agree or not? Come home with me. I'm counting on you to save me. My dad can't hold his own in front of my mom."

"No, it's not appropriate in this situation."

"If the top student in the grade goes home with you, your mom might dislike you even more."

Ji Yuan shook her head and refused.
