Chapter 496 The Crown Prince's Little Darling 61
Free time follows the class meeting.
Song Jinhuan grabbed Bo Yan's hand and reminded him, "Yan, the teacher praised me!"
You can't be left behind!
Bo Yan: "Great job! It's worth it for you to study so late every day!"
"Let's buy a cake to celebrate after school today."
A boy sitting in the row in front of them turned around and asked in surprise, "You're celebrating even though you failed?"
"Isn't this the kind of treatment only the top three get?"
Song Jinhuan blushed; it seemed she had been a bit too high-profile.
A hint of displeasure flashed in Bo Yan's eyes. He raised his hand to push up the frame of his glasses and said with a gentle smile, "So you don't even have a chance to celebrate?"
The boy in the front row never ranked in the top three, but he wasn't bad; he consistently ranked between 4th and 10th.
Being in the top three has always been a hurdle in his mind. Now that someone has accurately targeted him, he couldn't help but feel a little sad and said, "Sigh, my parents only give rewards to the top three in the class."
Bo Yan casually added, "As long as the child makes progress, it's worth celebrating, isn't it?"
"As parents, we can't just love our children based on their grades, can we?"
"Perhaps you can go back and discuss it."
The boy in the front row thought it made a lot of sense. Although he only came in fourth this time, his total score was higher than last time, which was a small improvement.
Who doesn't crave their parents' praise?
The boy in the front row turned his head to continue reading his book.
Bo Yan pressed his large hand down on the girl's head, and as she looked on in confusion, he leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Don't take his words to heart."
"As long as you're happy, that's all that matters in our family."
"Besides, you have a lot of room for improvement, so it doesn't count until the very last moment."
The boy was too close; her ears felt as if they were enveloped in heat, and a strange feeling welled up inside her.
My heart started pounding.
He could barely hear what the other person was saying, so he could only nod haphazardly and reply, "Okay, I know."
Bo Yan then stepped back a little, rubbed her head twice, and withdrew his hand.
If nothing unexpected happens, the student in the front row will inevitably get a scolding.
Oh……
As Bo Yan had predicted, the boy in the front row went home, told his parents about his grades, and offered suggestions.
His parents were always strict with him. Although they were happy, they felt that it was not good to be proud of making some progress, so they mixed criticism with reasoning.
"Your total score has improved so much, but you still can't squeeze into the top three. This means either the exam was easy, or other students are also improving!"
“You should be focusing on your studies now, instead of making demands of your parents.”
"Your parents are doing this for your own good, and you're not studying for their sake."
The boy in the front row said aggrievedly, "But the other students..."
Even failing grades are something to celebrate.
"Other students can get first place, what about you?"
"Go to your room and do your homework!"
The boy in the front row burst into tears and shouted, "You only care about grades, not me!"
Then he turned around and ran back to his room, slamming the door shut with a "bang".
The parents looked at each other, both heartbroken.
I've sacrificed so much for my child, and all I get in return is this accusation.
Sigh, being a parent is so hard.
The crying in the bedroom continued for a long time. After a while, the bedroom door was pushed open, and a cup of hot milk was placed next to the boy in the front row.
The light coming through the window didn't go out until the early hours of the morning.
...
Bo Yan and Song Jinhuan went into the dessert shop together and bought a six-inch fruit cake.
I also bought some snacks.
A happy day means you can skip dinner!
