Start as a top student after transmigrating.

"Take this."

Han Jiancheng suddenly took out a key and handed it to Wu Jie.

"Where is it from?" Wu Jie reached out and took it, puzzled.

"you guess."

Han Jiancheng's lips curled slightly as he headed to the kitchen to boil water.

"Could it be Ning'er's rented apartment key?" Wu Jie was very clever and quick-witted, and instantly guessed what it was.

"clever."

Han Jiancheng took out a teacup, put in some black tea leaves, and added ginger and brown sugar.

Wu Jie is a workaholic, and due to her work, her eating habits are often irregular. Over the years, her stomach has not been very good. Ginger and brown sugar black tea has a protective effect on her stomach.

"They don't have classes on Saturday nights or Sunday afternoons. If you have time, you can go and see them, or even just cook them a meal." Han Jiancheng handed a teacup to Wu Jie.

"But Ning'er doesn't want to see me." Wu Jie's face was bitter.

"You're decisive and efficient at work, but when it comes to your daughter, your IQ drops by 80%," Han Jiancheng joked with a smile.

Wu Jie does not deny that she is exceptional in both mind and methods to have reached this position. She is a good leader, but perhaps not a good mother.

She wanted to ease the tension between mother and daughter, but didn't know how. She wanted to discipline and guide her, but her daughter became increasingly rebellious.

She was genuinely confused.

The only consolation was that her husband kept encouraging her and giving her advice.

"Little Chen."

Han Jiancheng gave a reminder, and Wu Jie's eyes lit up instantly.

"Xiao Chen is a very clever person, and he wants to ease the tension between Ning'er and you. Even if it's just for Ning'er's sake, at least his goal is the same as yours. I think you can find some time to have a good talk with Chen Dong first," Han Jiancheng said with a smile.

"Mm." Wu Jie nodded gently.

With Han Jiancheng acting as a mediator and Chen Dong and the others willing to help, she saw hope for a resolution.

Ring ring.

Just then, her phone rang. After answering a few times, her expression turned serious. After ending the call, she grabbed her coat.

"I have to go out for a bit."

"Are you coming back tonight?" Han Jiancheng asked with concern, without asking what was wrong.

"I can't say for sure, you should rest first and don't wait for me." Wu Jie finished her black tea, put down her teacup, put on her coat, and went outside.

……

On the other side, Chen Dong and his group first took Han Ning'er and the other girls home, and then went home themselves.

Chen Dong returned home after 10 p.m. Chen Zhenjiang and Zeng Ling had also returned and were resting on the sofa in the living room. When Zeng Ling saw Chen Dong return, she immediately stood up from the sofa.

She asked excitedly, "Son, is it true that your dad went to the parent-teacher conference today and said you got 701 on the mock exam?"

"Mm." Chen Dong nodded with a smile.

They've all gone to school, and I know his grades are normal.

The reason he didn't tell his parents beforehand was twofold: firstly, he wanted to surprise them, and secondly, such an astonishing achievement wouldn't be very convincing coming from him.

Even if the test papers were placed in front of the two elders, they would probably still doubt their authenticity. But if the teacher announced that all doubts would no longer exist, it would save them the trouble of explaining themselves.

"So it's true that we're number one in the city?" Zeng Ling seemed even more excited.

"Mm." Chen Dong's smile widened.

"A top scholar! The Chen family has produced a top scholar! Old Chen, your ancestors must have been incredibly lucky!" It seemed that only after hearing Chen Dong's direct and personal confirmation did Zeng Ling truly believe it was real.

"It really did emit blue smoke."

Chen Zhenjiang echoed this sentiment, looking at Chen Dong and asking, "These results are genuine, aren't they?"

"If there were any issues, Lao Yang would have used me as a negative example long ago. Dad would definitely get scolded at school today too," Chen Dong laughed.

"That's true."

Actually, Chen Zhenjiang didn't have much doubt, except for disbelief. After all, if someone really cheated, not only would Lao Yang not recognize the result, but the school wouldn't either, let alone keep praising it.

He found it unbelievable. "Weren't you at the bottom of the whole school before? I haven't seen you study for very long, how did you suddenly become the top student in the whole city?"

Chen Dong suddenly realized his mistake and turned over a new leaf. He had witnessed the whole process and never thought about how much his grades could improve. After all, he knew Chen Dong's foundation very well and how much improvement he could expect with only half a year left before the college entrance examination.

He was already content with the fact that the kid was sensible, but then this kid came up with a big surprise: 701, first in the city, something he never dared to dream of.

"Son, how did you do that?" Zeng Ling asked, feeling the same way.

After receiving the news, the couple were shocked and incredulous, and they spent the whole night speculating and analyzing how Chen Dong had managed to get first place in the city.

But they had no answer; any possibility seemed too far-fetched.

"Mom and Dad, have you heard of Wang Ruodu?" Chen Dong asked in return.

Chen Zhenjiang and Zeng Ling exchanged a glance, then shook their heads.

"Wang Ruodu was just like me. He was playful and addicted to games. He only started studying three months before the college entrance examination, and then he got into Tsinghua and Peking Universities."

Chen Zhenjiang and Zeng Ling were still puzzled, not understanding what Chen Dong was trying to express.

Chen Dong laughed and said, "He is a super genius, his learning ability is terrifying and hard for ordinary people to understand. What I want to say is that I am also such a genius."

Although they didn't know Wang Ruodu, the couple understood that their son was a top student and that his words implied he was aiming for Tsinghua or Peking University.

Chen Zhenjiang was so happy that he immediately took out several large red shrimp as a reward and encouragement.

Hey, that's not what I meant!

My mom just gave me several hundred yuan as a reward a few days ago, and I also earned some money from part-time work during New Year's Day, so I'm not short of money.

"Let's keep things separate. Your mom is giving you living expenses, and I'm giving you pocket money. Spend it as you like, and come to me if you run out." Chen Zhenjiang stuffed the money directly into Chen Dong's hand.

Not easy.

Chen Zhenjiang used to hate Chen Dong for always asking for money, and he always wanted to cut off his source of income, let alone give him money voluntarily.

Moreover, this time there were at least seven or eight large red shrimp, plus the money on him, he had more than a thousand.

Well, it's good to pay off the debts owed by the class in advance, so everyone can have a good New Year.

……

I went upstairs to wash up, wrote some updates, and then went to sleep.

The next day, since there was no morning self-study on Sunday, Chen Dong slept in a little longer. He got up at eight o'clock, lazily washed up, and went out to pick up Ye Wanwan to go to school.

"Brother Dong, here you go~"

As soon as they sat down in the classroom, He Jia brought breakfast to the back row. True to her word, she would keep her promise to provide breakfast for Chen Dong during the tutoring period.

"Why is this steamed bun so ugly?"

Chen Dong took the package. It contained a cup of soy milk and six steamed buns, which were crooked, ugly, and of different sizes. Chen Dong even wondered if He Jia had dug them out of a trash can.

"These were made by my mom. They're packed with filling and taste delicious, much better than those meat buns you can buy outside. The soy milk is also freshly made this morning," He Jia explained.

"Oh, you made it yourself?"

Chen Dong couldn't wait to take a bite, his eyes brightening slightly. "It really tastes good! Why did you prepare such a nice breakfast for me today?"

He Jia smiled somewhat shyly, then took out her hand from behind her back and held up a test paper.

Chen Dong understood immediately.

This is because I encountered a problem and wanted to ask him for advice.
