Su Han’s school released the final exam results quickly this time.

Su Ran had originally thought that it would take at least a week, which would have given her enough time to prepare herself mentally. However, she did not expect that the results would be out in just three days.

[Class 8 Parent Contact Group]

[Class teacher]: @all, Dear parents, the scores for the final exam of this semester and class rankings are out. I will send the results shortly.

[Class teacher]: [File]

[Class teacher]: Regarding the results of this final exam and the whole grade exam, overall, our class did very well, and our total score ranked third among the eleven classes in the whole grade.

[Class teacher]: Out of the top ten students in the whole school, four are from class 8, especially Su Han, who ranked first in the overall score this time.

[Class teacher]: In addition, the students in the middle and lower reaches of our class also did well in the exam…

Su Ran didn’t actually see what the class teacher said after that. As soon as she saw the file, Su Ran clicked it open.

When she saw that the name in the first row was indeed her son’s, Su Ran’s nervousness instantly disappeared, replaced by a wave of excitement. And then retreated back to the group chat.

At this moment, the parents’ group had already reached 99 members in a short while.

[Xiong Nainai’s mom]: Xiong Nainai has made great progress this time. Thank you for your hard work, teacher.

[Lin Xue’s father]: Lin Xue has troubled Teacher Wang this semester.

[Liu Min’s mother]: Teacher, Liu Min’s score this time is much lower than the previous monthly exams. Is it because the overall difficulty of the questions has increased, or has she regressed?

……

[Li Xiaojing’s father]: Su Han is first again!

[Lin Xue’s mother]: Yes, Keke’s scores are all above 95. Her grades are so good.

[Du Wentao’s mother]: My Du Wentao doesn’t even need to get above 95 points. If he can stay above 80 points, I’ll be satisfied.

……

It was unclear who started it, but the topic gradually shifted from their own children to how academic achievers are raised.

Watching all the parents in the group madly blowing rainbow farts for their sons. Su Ran still replied very “modestly”: Su Han was the one who worked especially hard on practice questions during the last two months of the semester.

Although she was still very modest on the surface, Su Ran was already overjoyed in her heart. That’s right! My son is the best, no argument!

“Oh my, my son is really handsome, sensible, and has good grades!”

Looking at Su Han, who was sitting on the other end of the sofa, focused on playing a game on his phone, Su Ran couldn’t help but sigh.

Hearing the family woman’s sudden burst of flattery, Su Han was slightly stunned, and then he was immediately defeated by the two of them.

Su Han found that this woman had become increasingly lazy recently. This laziness was not reflected in life, but in her attitude towards him.

Before, when he was in class, Su Ran would ask him this and that all day long, and every day she would pull open his collar very seriously to check if he had obediently worn his undershirt and sweater.

After returning home from the exam these past two days, Su Han found that this woman’s attitude towards him had taken a sharp turn for the worse.

She didn’t care if he was dressed warmly enough, or what time he went to bed. Moreover, sometimes, this woman would ignore him directly! While talking to him, her attention would drift to other places.

Su Han felt very wronged about this. But he didn’t want to say it out loud.

So, at this moment, when Su Ran suddenly showed concern with her flattery, Su Han was a little flattered.

Cough, no, it was very unexpected!carpreads.pages.dev

After thinking about the only possible reason, Su Han raised his eyebrows, put on a calm and smug expression, and asked coolly, “Are the results out?”

“Oh, you know about it too? Were your classmates discussing it too?” Su Ran asked.

“No.” He just saw that Du Wentao had suddenly died in the game just now, and then he howled in WeChat: “Heaven wants to kill me, do you want to run away from home?”

However, their class group chat would probably start discussing it in a while.

Originally, Su Han was a little nervous about his ranking, but looking at the woman’s expression at the moment, Su Han was not nervous at all.

“Your teacher sent your final exam rankings and scores to the parent group,” Su Ran said, blinking and looking at her son. “Guess what rank you got?”

“First?” Su Han raised an eyebrow and asked calmly.

“That’s right! My son is awesome!”

“Son, how did you grow up to be so outstanding?” Su Ran couldn’t help but walk over and excitedly rub her son’s handsome face, saying with a smile.

“You’re the one who gave birth.” Su Han very cooperatively threw out a sentence that “Su Ran loved to hear.”

Then the next second, it wasn’t so cute anymore.

“Don’t rub my face,” Su Han frowned, dodged his parent’s clutches, and then gave Su Ran a disgusted look, adding, “And you’re being too dramatic.”

Although he said that, Su Han’s mouth slightly curved into an arc that he couldn’t suppress as he turned his head coolly, thinking that Su Ran wouldn’t notice.

Looking at her son, Su Ran tried very hard not to laugh out loud, unsure if it was because of embarrassment or if his face had really turned red from her rubbing it.

Raising her eyebrows, she glanced at Su Han and said, “How am I exaggerating? I’m telling you, son, you got first place in the whole school. And your class teacher said that even if you put this score in the whole of City B, you would definitely be in the top 30. I’m already being very low-key by not putting up a banner or setting off fireworks.”

Pull a banner? And set off fireworks? What on earth was this woman thinking?

Upon hearing Su Ran’s words, Su Han’s mouth twitched.

“Cough, I’m going to make dinner. Do you want noodles or dumplings?” Su Han asked as he put down his phone and stood up.

Since moving here, Su Ran’s family’s food has been improving steadily. When Lu Shao was around, it went without saying, but even when Mr. Lu was occasionally not home, their meals were upgraded from steamed buns and eggs to steamed buns, noodles, wontons, and dumplings.

Upon hearing this, Su Ran paused. “Where’s your dad?”

“Oh, when you were on the phone with Du Wentao’s mom just now, he called back and said that he had something to do tonight and would be back a little later,” Su Han said.

That guy had been really busy lately, but as for what he was busy with. Tsk, that day, when Uncle Zhou came over and said a few words about self-coupling, he guessed it. I don’t know why he was being so secretive about it.

“Oh, then I want to eat wontons.”

Su Han: …

“There are no more wontons at home.”

“Oh, then you decide. I’ll eat whatever you eat.”

“Then I’ll boil dumplings?”

“Then let’s have noodles.”

Su Han: …

He found that this woman was getting more and more troublesome recently. She was spoiled to this!

Su Ran didn’t care what her son was complaining about in his heart. Looking at Su Han’s increasingly mature, steady, and unlovable, face finally showing a cracked expression, Su Ran was deeply relieved.

“Remember to add water to the dumplings three times,” Su Ran reminded.

“Didn’t you say you wanted to eat noodles!”

“This is really annoying…”

Hearing Su Han’s voice on the verge of exploding coming from the kitchen, Su Ran finally couldn’t help but burst out laughing. ……

At eight o’clock in the evening, when Lu Shao came back from outside, the first thing he saw was Su Han curled up on the sofa, his face full of resentment.

“What? You have a lot of complaints about me asking you to stay home and keep your mom company?” Lu Shao asked Su Han, raising an eyebrow.

Upon hearing this, Su Han raised his head slowly and glanced at Lu Shao without hesitation, saying, “That’s because your wife is too troublesome.”

“Pfft,” Lu Shao chuckled softly after hearing this, and then said, “That’s your mom too. Where’s your mom?"

“Look, she’s struggling inside.” Su Han pointed to the direction of the master bedroom and said.

Upon hearing this, Lu Shao ignored Su Han, took off his coat, and pushed open the door to the master bedroom. When Lu Shao entered, Su Ran was indeed struggling, facing two sets of clothes laid out on the bed.

“Su Han said you were struggling.” Lu Shao walked behind Su Ran, put his arms around her, and said.

“Hmm,” Su Ran relaxed her furrowed brow after hearing the question and said, “I’m thinking about what I’m going to wear to Su Han’s parent-teacher conference.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Shao raised his eyebrows.

“The time for the parent-teacher conference has been set?”

“Um, wait a moment. I’ll find the notification and show it to you.” Su Ran said, taking the phone from the bedside table and looking through dozens of parent messages very seriously.

But little did he know that Lu Shao wasn’t concerned about the content of the parent-teacher conference at all, but rather when the parent-teacher conference would be held, so that Su Han could finally have a complete break.

After searching through her phone for a while, Su Ran finally found the notification that her class teacher had sent three times in a row.

[Notice] Our school will hold a school-wide parent-teacher conference on the 17th of this month (three days later). The meeting will include discussions on students’ final exam results and safety during the winter break… At that time, the school will also invite parents of the top students from each grade from the first to third year of junior high school to share their educational experiences. Please be informed.

In addition, Su Ran also received a message from the class teacher specifically for her, mainly to ask for her opinion on the matter of exchanging experiences.

Of course she agreed. Otherwise, Su Ran wouldn’t have had to start secretly thinking about what to wear several months in advance.

However, at this moment, Su Ran was still struggling.

“How about this one?” Su Ran pointed to one of them, tilted her head slightly, and asked Lu Shao.

“Change into another set.”

“Hmm? Are you referring to this?” Su Ran pointed to another set of long dress and coat that looked very scholarly and asked.

Upon hearing this, Lu Shao frowned slightly.

“That’s too little, wear more.”

“But…” If she wore more, she would have to wear a down jacket. Su Ran’s eyes flashed with a hint of hesitation.

“The parent-teacher conference will last for most of the day, you will be cold if you wear this.”

“Wear more, okay?”

“And, haven’t you been very afraid of the cold lately?”

After Mr. Lu’s repeated persuasion, the entanglement in Su Ran’s eyes finally loosened a little. As a result, when the day of Su Han’s parent-teacher conference arrived. Su Ran didn’t go as the parent representative to speak, but the child’s father did.
