The Supporting Female Character in a Chronicle Doesn't Do It Anymore

Ye Shuning, a Doctor of Chemistry, was struck by a meteorite and transmigrated into a chronicle novel she had read, becoming the male lead's cannon fodder ex-wife.

She just wants to stay ...

Chapter 379: Prepare to Take Action

Li Jingyi is already of school age. Ye Shuning is considering whether to find a school for the child. She also wants to seek her husband's opinion. "Brother Zhong, do you think we should send the child to school? At least we should find a school to enroll him."

Li Shaozhong is also considering his child's schooling. "Jingyi definitely can't go to school as planned like other children. He's only six, so it's a bit early for him to start school. Most schools don't accept children until they're seven."

Ye Shuning thought about it and it made sense. When she was a child, she started school at the age of six, but now people start school at the age of seven. Her eldest son is not even that age yet.

Li Shaozhong thought for a moment and said, "Jingyi's situation is special and cannot be treated the same as other children. I'll ask someone later to see if I can get him a student registration. Then he can just take the exams and not go to school."

Ye Shuning thought this would be a better approach. "Then let our son skip a grade. After graduating from primary school for two years, he'll take the entrance exam for junior high school, and then skip a grade again to take the entrance exam for high school. Doesn't HKUST have a junior class? We can let him take the entrance exam for that. If he wants to study abroad, that's fine too."

Li Shaozhong and his wife attach great importance to their children's studies, but they also respect their children's decisions.

After the couple agreed, Li Shaozhong asked someone to inquire about schools for their child. Soon, a school was willing to accept Li Jingyi, but Li Jingyi had to take a test first.

Li Shaozhong and his wife personally took their son to the school. Because of their relationship, the school principal also attached great importance to Li Jingyi and personally gave Li Jingyi a test.

Li Shaozhong directly asked the principal to give his son the sixth-grade graduation exam. Although the principal was skeptical, he still produced the sixth-grade exam. As a result, Li Jingyi received full marks.

Now the principal looked at Li Jingyi as if he were a golden baby. It was a blessing in disguise that such a gifted child could come to their school.

Li Shaozhong said, "Principal Liu, because my child's situation is rather special, I would like to apply to the school. Jingyi will study at home, but he will take the school exams on time."

Principal Liu said, "That's no problem. He really doesn't need to attend school at this level. So what grade are you planning to enroll him in?"

With Li Jingyi's current level, there will be no problem for him to go to the sixth grade.

Li Shaozhong said: "The child is still too young. We want him to stay in elementary school for two years. Let's put him in fifth grade. He will graduate from elementary school in two years."

Principal Liu replied, "No problem. I'll put him in Grade 5 Class 1. I'll greet their homeroom teachers."

Li Shaozhong and his wife discussed it with the principal and took their child back home. When school started, Li Jingyi was a fifth-grade student.

Li Jingyu saw his uncle, aunt and cousin coming back and asked, "Uncle, how's it going? Is everything going well?"

Li Shaozhong nodded. "I've already agreed with the school. Jingyi will start in fifth grade, and two years later he'll graduate from elementary school and take the junior high school entrance exam. He'll only be eight years old by then."

Li Jingyu put his arm around his cousin's shoulders and said with a smile, "Oh, Jingyi will be an elementary school student soon."

Li Jingyi looked up at his tall cousin and said, "I will soon catch up with you and become a college student."

Li Jingyu rubbed his cousin's head and said with a smile, "Oh, then you have to work hard. After I graduate from university, I'm also preparing to take the postgraduate entrance exam and get a doctorate. If you can catch up with me, we can go together."

Ye Shuning smiled and said, "If Jingyi were to take the junior class, he might actually be able to catch up with you. In fact, you can study abroad. The learning environment abroad is more flexible. As long as you have enough credits, you can graduate. You don't have to go through four years of university in China."

Li Jingyu said, "My purpose in going to university is to gain knowledge. I think I can learn more by being with you, my uncle and aunt. It doesn't matter whether I study abroad or not."

Li Shaozhong said, "Jingyu's idea is right. Even if your school can't let you graduate early, you can make full use of your spare time to learn more knowledge. You can also do research with us during college, which is not bad either."

Just as Ye Shuning was preparing her two children for school, Li Shaozhong brought back news about Wei Chen.

Li Shaozhong returned home from get off work, handed his briefcase to his wife, and said, "I think Zhao Huixin is going to take action."

Ye Shuning raised her eyebrows when she heard this, "Did Wei Chen give you any news?"

Li Shaozhong nodded. "A few days ago, Wei Chen deliberately told Zhao Huixin that they had developed a new product and that it would be on the market soon. These days, Zhao Huixin has been constantly suggesting she wants to visit Wei Chen's lab. It seems she can't hold back any longer."

Jingdu has already made preparations. As long as Zhao Huixin takes action and is arrested, Jingdu will take action against the Zhao family. This heavy stone that has been weighing on my heart is finally being lifted."

Ye Shuning said, "Then I'll prepare in the lab for the next two days. I have to make sure Zhao Huixin is convinced and can't get back on her feet. Also, we can install a camera in Wei Chen's office to record everything Zhao Huixin does."

Li Shaozhong's eyes lit up when he heard this. "That's a good idea. We can remove the camera after we're done using it. I'll install it myself and try not to let anyone else know."

Wei Chen met Zhao Huixin again while having lunch in the cafeteria at noon. Although he disliked Zhao Huixin very much, he had to endure it. In order to eliminate this cancer lurking in the Haizhou Daily Chemical Factory, he had to make some sacrifices.

Zhao Huixin had been under a lot of pressure from her eldest brother recently. She had heard from Wei Chen that they had made some new discoveries, and she wasn't going to wait any longer. She wanted to go into the lab and take a look.

Zhao Huixin happily sat across from Wei Chen and kept putting the braised pork she bought into Wei Chen's lunch box. "Wei Chen, I bought braised pork and braised hairtail today to celebrate for you and your new achievement."

Wei Chen smiled and said, "Thank you. However, the new results are not just my own achievements. They are the result of everyone's hard work. I'm currently writing a summary report, so I might be very busy."

Zhao Huixin said sympathetically, "Your work is important. If I want to see you, can I go to your office?"

Wei Chen didn't refuse this time. After thinking for a while, he said, "Okay. At noon, everyone usually goes back to eat or rest. There's no one else in my office. You can come see me."

Zhao Huixin said happily, "You're so busy, why don't I buy you lunch at noon? I'll send it to your office and we can eat together in your office. This way you can save time."

Wei Chen pretended to be happy and said, "That's great. This way I can have more time to write the report at noon. The higher-ups are asking for it urgently, so I have to finish it as soon as possible. Thank you, Huixin. You are so considerate."

Zhao Huixin said quite proudly: "Of course, a girl as good as me would be hard to find even with a lantern."

Wei Chen smiled and said, "Eat quickly, or the food will get cold soon."
