nSong Ci sent the two children to school. Then, she asked Lu Gan, “Do you think that Yujin will be able to get first place?”

nLu Gan could not help but laugh.

n“Don’t you have any confidence in him?”

n“That’s the problem. All of us might be overconfident. I’m worried that Yujin may be upset if the results were not as expected.”

nLu Gan consoled, “Yujin will be fine. Even if he doesn’t get first place, there will always be next time. You should be more worried about Little Suo. What if he gets last place? His teacher will give you an earful during the parent-teacher conference.”

nFor a moment, Song Ci was speechless.

n“Little Suo is a smart boy! It’s impossible for him to get last place!”

n“See, there’s your blind confidence again.”

nSong Ci snorted coldly.

n“Little Suo will use his results to slap your face.”

n“I can’t wait.”

nZhang Huan overheard everything.

n‘Why am I here? I wish to be run over by a car. Lovey-dovey couples are the worst!’

nAfter the final examination was winter break.

nWhen Lu Suo came home, he told Song Ci, “Our results will be announced during the parent-teacher conference.”

nSong Yujin nodded.

nAs their guardian, Song Ci was very worried.

nSong Yujin had a carefree expression on his face. He would suffer a huge blow if he did not get first place.

nLu Suo emphasized, “Mommy, remember to attend the parent-teacher conference.”

nSong Ci nodded and looked at Song Yujin.

n“I’ll be attending for both of you.”

n“Okay.”

nSong Yujin looked indifferent, but he felt a little happy.

nSong Ci could not help but feel nervous because it was her first time attending a parent-teacher conference.

nOn that particular day, Song Ci walked back and forth in her room. She asked Lu Gan, “What should I wear? Which color is appropriate? Dress? Trousers? Long skirt? Tell me!”

n“It’s a cold day, isn’t it?”

n“I think I’ll wear a simple light-colored gown. Maybe I can also put a coat over it.”

n“…”

nLu Gan wondered why Song Ci bothered to ask him this question if she had already made up her mind.

nSong Ci got dressed and left the house, feeling uneasy.

nLu Gan accompanied his wife. When the car stopped, he reassured her, “It’ll be fine. Good luck.”

nSong Ci took a deep breath and gave Lu Gan a fierce hug before getting out of the car. Originally, she wanted Lu Gan to accompany her. However, he refused.

nLu Gan did not want to attend because of his current state. Talkative parents would definitely gossip about him, making things unnecessarily rough for Lu Suo and Song Yujin. It was also the reason why he always stayed at home.

n…

nThe homeroom teacher, Guo Ruo, was a mature woman in her twenties. Upon seeing Song Ci, she thought to herself, ‘This woman looks familiar.’

nSubsequently, Guo Ruo asked, “Are you Song Yujin’s guardian?”

nSong Ci smiled and replied, “Yes. I’m Song Yujin’s elder sister and Lu Suo’s mother.”

nGuo Ruo knew that Song Yujin and Lu Suo were related in one way or another, so she did not question Song Ci any further.

n“Come in.”

nAfter they were seated, Guo Ruo continued, “Song Yujin did very well. He got full marks. The other children can learn a lot from him.”

nSong Ci felt relieved.

n“Thank you for the praise.”

n“You’re welcome. This is the first time I’ve seen a child who loves to read so much…”

n“That’s true.”

nSong Ci and Guo Ruo chatted for a little while before it was the other parents’ turn.

nGuo Ruo had placed the children’s test papers on their respective desks.

nSong Ci went to pick up Song Yujin’s test papers. The latter had indeed scored full marks. Naturally, Song Ci felt very happy and proud of him.
