Coming out of the office building and turning a corner, Jiang Chen saw Huo Bo waiting by the garden.
He paused and laughed: "Are you here just to stop me?"
"Your chemistry class." Huo Bo said helplessly: "Chen Xu doesn't dare to skip class."
Jiang Chen curled his lips: "I guessed it."
Huo Bo raised his chin and looked towards the direction of the principal's office: "Are you okay?"
"It's okay." Jiang Chen said, "I'll tell you after school."
Huo Bo: "Let's have dinner together tonight."
"good."
Jiang Chen returned to the classroom and just sat down when a ball of paper flew across the table. He turned his head and saw Chen Xu winking. He opened the ball of paper and saw the words: Are you okay?
The chemistry class was still going on. Jiang Chen turned to the page he was reviewing, picked up the pen and replied with two words: It's okay.
Chen Xu hastily tore open the paper ball, and was relieved to see the reply. He wrote under Jiang Chen's reply, "Why did the Bull Demon King take you away?", and when the chemistry teacher turned around, he quickly threw it on Jiang Chen's desk.
Jiang Chen: Professor Zhang from the Computer Science Department of Yanda University came. He seemed to have heard something from Professor Xiang and asked me about my university aspirations.
Chen Xu: Then what did you say?
Jiang Chen: My first choice is the Computer Science Department of Yanda University.
Chen Xu: And then?
Jiang Chen: Let’s talk after class.
Chen Xu: I waited for you for a flag-raising ceremony and half a chemistry class. Do you really have the heart to let your brother keep waiting?!?!
Seeing the two huge question marks and exclamation marks that Chen Xu almost tore through the paper, Jiang Chen could only try to explain it as concisely as possible and end this dangerous conversation with paper balls flying everywhere.
Jiang Chen: Professor Zhang hopes that I will definitely choose the Computer Science Department of Yanda University, and talked to me about the admission, but I have not agreed yet.
Chen Xu: What are you still considering!!! Isn’t Computer Science at Yanda your first choice? You can save a lot of trouble if you can get admitted right away! It’s like early liberation, brother! You can do whatever you want in your senior year! Why don’t you agree?
Jiang Chen received the paper ball that flew over again, glanced at Chen Xu, and stuffed the paper ball into the table without even looking at it.
Seeing that Jiang Chen didn't look, Chen Xu was so anxious that he scratched his heart and liver. He covered his face with a book and moved closer and asked, "Jiang Zi, why didn't you agree?"
Jiang Chen lowered his voice and said, "Let's talk after class."
"The get out of class is about to end. I won't listen if you don't say it. Speak now..."
Jiang Chen's mouth twitched. He felt the gaze from the podium and had no choice but to take out a piece of paper, write a few words and throw it over.
Shen Xu hurriedly caught it, but before he had time to look, he was hit by the chalk.
The chemistry teacher stood on the stage and said, "I see that the notes you two are writing are like the rhythm of Xiao Li's Flying Dagger. They are flying back and forth so much that I can hardly see clearly. What are you talking about so happily and can't stop? Let us listen too and have some fun with you two!"
Jiang Chen held his forehead, Shen Xu shrank his neck, and admitted his mistake with a good attitude: "I was wrong, Teacher He, there won't be a next time."
"Wrong?"
Shen Xu nodded: "Wrong."
"What's wrong?"
"Everything is wrong, absolutely wrong, but I will correct it if I know I am wrong..."
"Stand up!" Teacher He knocked heavily on Shen Xu's desk twice and pointed at the note in his hand: "Read!"
Chen Xu hid the note behind him and whispered, "Teacher, I was really wrong, and I am deeply aware of my mistakes. I promise to turn over a new leaf in the future. I will write you a thousand-word letter of guarantee after class, so reading... this is not necessary."
Teacher He hissed, as if he couldn't believe it: "A thousand-word guarantee?"
"right!"
"Okay, a 1,000-word letter of guarantee." Teacher He nodded, and when Shen Xu breathed a sigh of relief, he took out the ball of paper from his hand and said, "You have to write the letter of guarantee, and you have to read it. Do you want me to read it?"
"I..." Shen Xu was a little at a loss. He turned his head to look at Jiang Chen apologetically, asking for his opinion.
Jiang Chen nodded, and Chen Xu said, "I'll read it."
Teacher He handed him the note and said, "Read it to me, with great emotion, the passionate feelings you expressed in the note."
Chen Xu licked his lips, opened the note, and read it word by word: "Me: 'Are you okay?', Jiang Chen: 'Nothing', Me: 'Then why did I take you away?', Jiang Chen..."
"What's that, cough cough cough?" Teacher He frowned: "Speak clearly and stop coughing."
Shen Xu was silent for a few seconds, then he closed his eyes and began to speak with great emotion and intonation.
At first, the whole class burst into laughter because of his "Bull Demon King", but after hearing the rest, everyone quieted down.
Chen Xu read most of the passionate questioning with great emotion: "...You can do whatever you want in your senior year! Why don't you agree!" Then he imitated Jiang Chen's tone: "Jiang Chen: 'Professor Xiang of Huada University proposed that I go to Huada University's Department of Mathematics. I benefited a lot from chatting with him. I haven't rejected his invitation yet, and I want to take the college entrance examination.'"
The classroom fell into silence. During the silence, Teacher He pushed his glasses three times. When he was about to push them for the fourth time, the bell rang.
"Remember the 1,000-word guarantee letter. Not a single word can be missing." Teacher He calmly adjusted his glasses, turned around with the book in his hand and said, "get out of class dismissed."
For the first time, the chemistry teacher did not extend the class and left the classroom hurriedly before the bell rang. The students in Class 1 also came to their senses from the sounds of other classes moving tables and chairs and the sudden bustle outside.
Luo Ze stood up suddenly, snatched the paper ball from Shen Xu's hand, read it himself, and said "Fuck".
Others also came back to their senses. Some came over to look at the paper ball, and some asked directly: "Master Jiang, was the professor from Yanda University the one who just came? Does he want you to go to Yanda University?"
Jiang Chen had not expected this matter to be exposed in this way, but when asked, he would not hide it. Seeing him nod, someone said "awesome", followed by a burst of envy and blessings, and also followed by a series of questions:
"God Jiang, is this the reason you asked for leave this time?"
"Yes, Mr. Jiang, what did you do when you took almost a month off?"
"Aren't the results of the math competition out yet? If professors from Yanda and Huazhong University contact you, can they ensure your early admission?"
"God Jiang, which school do you plan to accept? Is it..."
Jiang Chen smiled, and gently but unyieldingly interrupted the continuous questions: "I haven't thought about the admission yet, I hope you won't make it public. I'll tell you when there's a result."
The other students were puzzled, but some quickly agreed: "Don't worry, Master Jiang, we won't tell."
…
However, before noon, the school's forum was already filled with posts discussing Jiang Chen's admission. By the time school was over, all the students in the school knew that Jiang Chen was going to be admitted.
He Qianmin had been waiting at the school gate. When he saw Jiang Chen and the others, he raised his hand and said, "Brother!"
Without waiting for Jiang Chen and the others to come over, he walked up to Jiang Chen in two steps, with excitement in his eyes: "Brother, I heard others talking about your recommendation, is it true?"
"Even you know about this?" Shen Xu raised his eyebrows.
"The whole school knows about it." He Qianmin: "Brother, what do you think?"
Jiang Chen saw many classmates slowing down their pace and said, "We are going to have dinner. You can join us. Wait a minute - Dad?"
Chen Xu and the other two also followed Jiang Chen's gaze and asked in surprise, "Uncle?"
Jiang Zhuo walked over slowly. He could walk like a normal person now, but he couldn't walk too fast or run.
"Xiao Xu and Xiao Bo are here too." Jiang Zhuo smiled and nodded to the three of them. His eyes fell on He Qianmin: "Are they also your classmates?"
Jiang Chen was puzzled as to why Jiang Zhuo suddenly came to school, but he still introduced He Qianmin seriously. He said, "Dad, this is He Qianmin, a freshman in our school. You probably haven't seen him before, but I mentioned him to you. Do you remember him?"
Jiang Zhuo thought about it and suddenly realized: "Is it the last time Miaomiao said you have a younger brother?"
"Yes." Jiang Chen smiled: "Qian Min is a younger brother to me."
He Qianmin raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and called out obediently: "Hello, uncle, I'm He Qianmin, nice to meet you."
Jiang Zhuo smiled cheerfully: "Hello, uncle has heard Jiang Chen mention you a long time ago. Uncle is here today to take Jiang Chen home for dinner. If you three have nothing to do, come along."
Huo Bo and Shen Xu looked at Jiang Chen. Jiang Chen didn't know why Jiang Zhuo suddenly came to the school to pick him up, but seeing the smile in his eyes that he couldn't hide at all, he knew that something good must have happened.
"Uncle, you really came just in time." Chen Xu said with a smile: "We were just thinking about what to eat. With Auntie's cooking skills, we don't have to think about it."
"Then let's go." Jiang Zhuo said happily, "Your aunt has prepared a large table of food at home, I guarantee you will be satisfied with the food."
Jiang Chen became even more curious and couldn't help but ask with a smile: "Is today a special day? Mom cooked a big table of food, and you came to pick me up."
"You'll know when you get back." Jiang Zhuo smiled mysteriously, "It's guaranteed to be a big surprise."
Jiang Chen also returned home with three tails out of curiosity. Yang Si was surprised for a moment when he saw Chen Xu and the others, but soon smiled and welcomed them: "Come in, wash your hands and you can eat."
When Jiang Chen saw a huge table full of food, he realized that the news his parents were about to announce might really be a big surprise.
At the table, Yang Si picked up food for Shen Xu and the other two from time to time, and was especially enthusiastic towards He Qianmin. Because he was worried that he would feel embarrassed, he secretly asked Jiang Chen about his taste before the meal, and moved the positions of his favorite dishes and placed them in front of him.
This was He Qianmin's first time to the Jiang family. Compared with the casualness of Shen Xu and Huo Bo, he seemed much more reserved. Facing the occasional questions from Yang Si and Jiang Zhuo, he behaved very well, which made Shen Xu marvel.
Overall, the meal was a great success for both hosts and guests. When everyone put down their chopsticks, Jiang Zhuo and Yang Si finally announced the reason why they prepared this table of dishes to celebrate.
Jiang Zhuo put one hand on Yang Si's shoulder and the other hand gently on her belly, and said with a smile: "In another seven months, you will have a brother or sister."
