In Congcong's school, there are more than a dozen classes in each grade.
He and Sun Baoxin were not in the same grade, so they didn't even know each other existed for several months after school started.
They had met when they were still younger, and even if they passed each other on the street, they wouldn't recognize each other.
The midterm exam is over.
The teachers quickly graded the test papers, and a large red paper was posted on the school bulletin board with the list of the top 100 students in each grade.
Congcong has long been accustomed to not being in the top three in his grade, and is basically always the first in the grade. He is not very interested in looking at the red list.
The freshmen in the first year of high school all crowded in front of the red list.
This was their first official exam ranking after entering high school. Everyone wanted to know how they did and who the good students in the grade were.
Sun Baoxin has been playing with his followers for so long that they have indeed taken advantage of him a lot and their relationship with him has become even closer.
A few of them also crowded in front of the red list to watch the fun.
Sun Baoxin even got into the school by bribery and connections. He doesn't have a good attitude towards study and he is not even in the top 100.
However, one of the students in front of him passed the exam.
"Look, that's me. I got 98th place in the grade."
"Oh, you're really amazing. You're the best student among us."
The boy who was praised looked proud.
To be honest, in school, academic performance is the most important strength.
Sun Baoxin was a little unhappy, secretly thinking that he would distance himself from the ninety-eighth person and not play with him anymore.
Since they were already there, after looking at the rankings of the first-year high school students, they ran to look at the rankings of the third-year high school students.
He was the top student in science in his senior year, and his name was Congcong.
Seeing the three big words "Zheng Yicong", Sun Baoxin frowned.
Ever since he was a child, he had a strong dislike for anything with the word "sweet" in it.
Sun family.
"Baoxin School is holding a parents' meeting, Junsheng, let's go together sometime. Many of the students at Baoxin have unusual families, and we can get to know them."
Sun Junsheng, who was reading the newspaper, was a little annoyed.
"As for Baoxin's grades, I was too embarrassed to tell other parents when I asked them about it."
How could Sun Junsheng, as a father, not know that his son had bought his way into a key high school by using his money and connections?
If my son had been admitted based on his own ability, perhaps he would have gone there happily.
But with his son's grades, he really didn't want to go.
When he said this, Huiru became angry.
"It turns out that he is my son and has nothing to do with you. We are just friends. What does Guan Baoxin's grades have to do with him? You have to go even if you don't want to."
In the past few years, Huiru has become the one who earns the most money in the family, and her words have become more and more assertive.
Sun Junsheng finally couldn't resist his wife's insistence.
On the day of the parent-teacher meeting, the couple dressed up very neatly and drove to the school together.
After Huiru became rich, she bought a red car, and the couple also drove her car to go there.
When going out, Sun Junsheng hesitated again and again and decided not to wear his military uniform. He wore casual clothes and, at the urging of his wife Huiru, he also put on an expensive watch that he rarely wore on weekdays.
The watch was brought back by Huiru, and Sun Junsheng also learned about its value. After knowing that the watch was worth more than 100,000 yuan, he dared not wear it to work on weekdays, for fear of attracting bad comments.
His career was not going well and he became cautious.
By the time they got to school, many parents were already there.
The couple went to their son's class.
Huiru carefully looked at the parents' attire and immediately found her target and went over to talk to her.
After chatting with a few people, Sun Junsheng became a little bored and said he wanted to go to the bathroom.
After walking out of the classroom, he didn't go to the toilet, but wandered around the school looking around.
This time, he walked in front of the red list that had just been announced.
He didn't expect to see his son Sun Baoxin's name on the red list, but he had nothing to do, so he scanned the names one by one.
When he saw the three words "Zheng Yicong" written on the name of the first place in science in the senior grade, he was stunned.
He certainly remembered the full name of his biological son Congcong, and also knew that Congcong took the Zheng family's surname.
In Beijing, there is also Zheng Yicong, who is one grade higher than Baoxin and their ages are basically the same, so it is most likely that he is that child.
This child, it turns out that his academic performance is so good, he looked dazed for a moment.
Over the years, every time he saw his younger son Sun Baoxin getting into trouble, he would think of his eldest son who had been missing.
I even occasionally wondered if I had made a mistake and that the child in the Zheng family was indeed Congcong.
It was because after the falling out that year, the Zheng family really did not have any relationship with the Sun family because of that child.
He would occasionally hear some news from his father-in-law, Old Deng. He knew that Old Deng had always had a good relationship with the Zheng family, just like a family member. He also heard that the old man's health was getting better and better.
It's not that he didn't have doubts, but he was so ruthless back then that he didn't dare to go back and ask for confirmation. He could only keep hypnotizing himself in his heart that he must have made a mistake and that the child was definitely not Congcong, the one he had lost.
All of this is just Mr. Deng’s self-consolation.
But now, seeing Congcong ranked first in the grade, he couldn't help but have wild thoughts.
"Why are you here? The parent-teacher meeting is about to start. Seriously, come back with me."
Huiru, who came over, complained a lot and then pulled Sun Junsheng away.
After they sat down in the classroom, the teacher started the parent-teacher meeting.
At this moment, the teacher doesn’t care about any negative impact of announcing or not announcing the students’ grades.
Directly praise the top students or students with good grades in various subjects in class.
The parents of the students who were praised all looked very proud.
Where there is praise, there is also criticism.
It would have been fine if Sun Baoxin himself didn't study hard, but he also led several students around him to do the same.
He excluded all students who scored 98 from the basic level.
The head teacher has long disliked him.
In front of all the parents, they didn't give much face to Huiru and Sun Junsheng.
"Some students in our class, relying on their well-off families, don't take their studies seriously, and they've affected the normal studies of other students in the class. I want to specifically criticize them here."
When the teacher was speaking, he was looking at Sun Baoxin's seat, where Huiru and Sun Junsheng were sitting.
"This is a school. If you don't study here, then what's the point of coming? I suggest parents take good care of their children."
"How can there be such students?"
"I don't want to learn myself but I want to delay others."
The other parents started to complain.
Huiru and Sun Junsheng were so embarrassed.
But Huiru was still holding on. Sun Junsheng's face turned red and he wanted to rush out of the door.
The homeroom teacher calmed the agitated parents and continued, "Parents should encourage their children to learn from good role models, such as senior student Zheng Yicong, who is an exceptional student."
I didn't expect to hear Congcong's name from the teacher.
Seeing the teacher praising Congcong with endless praise, and then thinking about the seriousness and disgust with which he criticized his own son just now, the sharp contrast made Sun Junsheng feel very uncomfortable.
He now urgently wanted to confirm one thing: whether Zheng Yicong was the adopted son of the Zheng family.
If not, he would feel calmer.
