Start as a top student after transmigrating.

Chen Dong and Liu Yumo have a very close relationship. Although their families don't have much interaction, they know each other, especially Chen's father and Liu's father.

After all, they're the ones who always come to parent-teacher conferences. One father is the last in his class, and the other is the second to last. Neither of them can escape being called out by the teacher.

"There's nothing to be reluctant about. It's better not to know about his grades. Every time I hear about them, my high blood pressure flares up. I feel like I could whip him to death with a belt." Chen Zhenjiang shook his head helplessly.

Adjust your emotions, don't get angry. Your body is your own, and your son... is your own too.

"You didn't ask about Chen Dong's grades?" Liu Hongjun's expression was strange. He already knew Chen Dong's grades from Liu Yumo. Good heavens, he's risen to the top in one step.

"I asked him, but he didn't say. He said there would be a surprise at the parents' meeting, but I think it was more like a shock." Chen Zhenjiang shrugged. He was mentally prepared. On the contrary, that brat had no room for further decline. How much worse could he get?

"Then you'd better be prepared, there really is a surprise, a huge surprise." Liu Hongjun said with a meaningful smile, somewhat looking forward to Chen Zhenjiang's reaction after he found out the results.

"Now that you know, tell me how many points that kid got on the exam, so I have some idea," Chen Zhenjiang asked.

Liu Hongjun remained silent, only smiling.

"Congratulations, Mr. Chen Dong!"

"You've raised a fine son."

Parents arrived one after another, and they all congratulated Chen Zhenjiang, leaving him completely bewildered. What was going on?

Liu Hongjun didn't say anything, and instead chatted with other parents on the sidelines, which made him a little uneasy. He wondered if that brat had caused him a big problem at school.

Soon, the parent-teacher meeting began on time, and Yang Xuesen walked into the classroom and stood on the podium.

"First of all, welcome and thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend this parent-teacher meeting. If nothing unexpected happens, this should be the last parent-teacher meeting for high school students."

"That's why I hope all parents will pay attention. Today I will talk about a few key points, and I hope that parents and teachers can cooperate with each other to provide the best possible learning environment for the children and strive to help them achieve their ideal scores."

Once Yang Xuesen started talking, he went on and on.

What is the importance of the senior year of high school?

The next semester is the most crucial time for the final sprint.

First, I talked about the importance of time and the college entrance examination, then I talked about the arrangement and adjustment of study time in the next semester, what the teachers would do, and how I hoped that parents could cooperate, etc.

Finally, let's talk about the mock exam, which is the most direct indicator of performance at this stage.

"Here I would like to give special praise to two students. First is Liu Yumo, who has always been at the bottom of the class. This time, not only did his score improve in the mock exam, but he also improved by more than 300 places in the whole grade."

popping.

As soon as Yang Xuesen finished speaking, a round of applause rang out in the classroom, and many eyes turned to Liu Hongjun, feeling proud of the child's progress.

"Not bad, Lao Liu. How did you usually educate him? He still made such great progress in the crucial senior year of high school." Chen Zhenjiang, sitting next to him, clapped along and took the opportunity to ask Liu Hongjun for advice.

"Stop kidding, it's your turn soon."

If he hadn't known that Chen Zhenjiang was unaware of Chen Dong's grades, he would have suspected that the guy was just putting on an act.

Chen Zhenjiang was somewhat bewildered.

But then Yang Xuesen's voice rang out, "Finally, I want to give special praise to a student, Chen Dong, who gave it his all in this mock exam and achieved the best score in the city, 701."

Instantly, even more enthusiastic applause erupted in the classroom.

Only Chen Zhenjiang stood there dumbfounded.

How many?

701? Number one in the city?

Did I mishear, or is it a hallucination caused by a temporal and spatial distortion? Am I actually still dreaming?

"Many parents know that Chen Dong was a student who was always at the bottom of the class and the worst student in the entire grade, but this time he has made such amazing progress."

"What I want to say is that Chen Dong is a role model for all students. No matter how bad your grades were before, it's not too late to start working hard now."

"Of course, learning requires talent, and geniuses are few and far between. I hope that all parents will take Chen Dong as an example, rather than demanding that their own children must do something."

"As long as the child doesn't give up and strives hard, we will encourage them regardless of the outcome."

Yang Xuesen hopes that all students can learn from Chen Dong and work hard no matter when they are young. As long as they devote themselves to their studies in the last few months, they will not waste their time.

But he doesn't want another Shuya to appear.

Children need motivation, not suffocating pressure.

"Old Chen, are we still going to fight when we get back?" Liu Hongjun nudged Chen Zhenjiang, who was standing there like a statue, with his elbow. Only then did the latter come to his senses, still looking shocked as if he were in a dream.

I never even dared to dream that the kid could score over 700 points, and even rank first in the city, and be praised so highly by the homeroom teacher and set as a role model.

This is such a pleasant surprise!

He had never felt that his homeroom teacher and the parents around him were so enthusiastic. He felt like he was in a dream and floating on air the whole time. He didn't even know how he left the school or how he got back to the store.

"Look at you, all dejected. It's just a parent-teacher conference and you got a few scoldings. Do you think you're going to get skinned alive?" Zeng Ling rolled her eyes at his appearance.

Pretending to be wronged is a bit too much.

"I wasn't scolded, and I didn't get skin peeled. Can you guess what I went through?" Chen Zhenjiang didn't notice the slight tremor in his voice.

"What's wrong?" Zeng Ling stopped joking when she heard his trembling.

"Your son scored 701 this time, the highest in the city, he's the top scorer in the city." Chen Zhenjiang could hardly contain his excitement.

The scene of Zeng Ling's stunned silence that she had imagined did not occur. She took two steps forward, raised her hand and touched Chen Zhenjiang's forehead, and said worriedly, "He doesn't have a fever anymore, so why is he starting to talk nonsense?"

"Haha, I knew you wouldn't believe me. I took a picture of your report card." Chen Zhenjiang wasn't surprised by Zeng Ling's reaction. He took out his phone and showed her the photo.

Although it's not a smartphone and the camera resolution isn't very high, the report card is still clearly visible.

"Name: Chen Dong, Class: 3, Math: 150, English: 150, Chinese: 132, Science: 269, Class Rank: 1, Grade Rank: 1, City Rank: 1... This, this, this..."

When Zeng Ling finished reading Chen Dong's grades aloud on her phone, the three consecutive "this"s highlighted her shock at that moment.

Unbelievable, like a dream, just like Chen Zhenjiang's reaction at the time.

She then took out her phone and dialed Chen Dong's number. After receiving her son's confirmation, the couple were overjoyed, even more so than when their sales broke records.

"Our ancestors have shown us their power!"

This is Chen Zhenjiang's reflection.

……

Meanwhile, Chen Dong and his group of five had arrived at Han Ning'er's apartment building.

It wasn't a leadership building arranged by relevant departments, but an ordinary residential building purchased by Han Jiancheng, which felt more like home to Han Ning'er.

Even so, this place is subject to certain management and supervision, though Han Ning'er is unaware of this, as she rarely comes here even then.
