Chapter 444 After the Parents' Meeting

Xu Yi, who was at home, kept sneezing, wondering who was thinking of him that way.

Xu Yi knew in his heart that his father was scolding him, and that he might get a beating soon.

"You're back! How was it? What did the teacher say?"

Xu Yi's mother is also waiting. Her son's grades are unstable, and she doesn't know if he has a chance of getting into the high school affiliated with their school.

In their area, the best high school is the one affiliated with their children's school. The others are either too far away or not much better than the high school affiliated with their children's school.

Xu Yi also came out, and seeing his father's ugly face, he knew he was doomed.

"What's wrong? Is there no hope for you to get into high school?"

Political Commissar Xu also happened to return and overheard his son and daughter-in-law's conversation.

Xu Yi is the oldest among them, so he has to set a good example for his younger siblings.

"Their homeroom teacher said that if their grades don't improve in the last month or so, things will be tough. Students from several surrounding schools are all working hard to get into this high school."

Commander Xu didn't even have the mind to beat his son; he had to figure out how to improve his grades first.

"Xu Yi, there's something I need to ask you. You had a competition with Commander Gu's daughter, and you lost?"

"Which Commander Gu is it? Is her daughter that capable?"

Xu Yi's mother was a little skeptical. Her son wasn't a top student, but he had always been good at training and had persisted since he was a child.

"Look at the report card, the one in third place."

Commander Xu handed the report card to his wife, and couldn't help but feel envious.

"Wow, is this Gu Yun Chu? She almost got full marks, especially in English, 98 points!"

Xu Yi's mother shouted excitedly, because her son Xu Yi had failed his English exam.

I wonder if Liu Jiu will sneeze. All night, the Xu family talked about Liu Jiu non-stop.
