In the blink of an eye, it was already Saturday. Xiang ChangKong didn't wake up early to go to the vegetable market as usual but hurried to Xiang Nuan's school instead.

Today was the parent-teacher meeting for the seniors, and when Xiang ChangKong arrived, the school's parking space was already filled to the brim. Xiang ChangKong had taken the subway for this reason.

Xiang ChangKong stood on the field with the other parents and waited outside.

The parent-teacher meeting was mainly divided into two parts. The first part was in the school auditorium, where all the parents in the grade would listen to the Principal's speech together. Afterward, each class would hold a small meeting in their respective classrooms.


At this time, the students were still in the middle of class. Hearing the commotion outside, Xiang Nuan began to feel a little agitated.

Her brother should already be outside. He was always punctual, after all.

Her math teacher was currently asking everyone to start solving the problem on the board. But all the students were already too distracted by the upcoming parent-teacher meeting. The math teacher stood on the platform and loudly reminded them: "Class hasn't finished yet, ah and your attention span's already flown away? Or maybe you all felt that the test was too easy?"

Just like last year, the school organized a mock test to coincide with the parent-teacher meeting. The test was done on Wednesday, so with two days for marking, the mock exam results would be one of the topics talked about during the parent-teacher meeting.

Although some of the test papers had yet to be handed back, all the students already knew their final score because the class representatives previously announced everyone's subject scores. When the scores of each subject were added together, one would be able to calculate whether they reached the cutoff score for their target university.

Xiang Nuan still hadn't been able to reach her target score. There was less than a month left before the first formal examination, and everyone says that the official exams were almost the same as the college entrance exams. If she still can't reach her desired score, then does that mean she has no hope in the college entrance exams?

(T/N: Basically, Xiang Nuan just took a mock exam for each subject. There will be a more formal mock exam in less than a month that will closely resemble the college entrance exams. The college entrance exams are the real deal, where the marks you get here will shape your future.)

Xiang Nuan knew she wasn't as smart as her brother from a very early age, and never expected to get accepted in a top university. She was content to attend a regular school. But now, it seems that even this was only her own wishful thinking.

At this time, Xiang ChangKong was sitting in the school auditorium with the other parents, waiting for the Principal to speak. The other parents sitting next to him noticed how young he was, and one man couldn't help but ask about it.


"Are you also a parent of Class 3?"

Xiang ChangKong nodded. "Sort of, my sister is in the class."

The man exclaimed: "Ah, no wonder you look so young."

Soon, the Principal, Vice-Principal, and Deans all came up the stage to speak one by one. It went for so long that Xiang Nuan's class ended up finishing before the speeches.

Classmate Shen Lin was on duty today and went up to clean the blackboard after everyone left. But when he looked back, he saw Xiang Nuan still on her seat with a sad expression on her face.
