At lunch time that afternoon, Wen Xia received a call from Wend.

"Dad, what's going on?"

"Teacher Cao called and asked me to attend the parents' meeting on Friday..."

After saying this, Winder on the other end of the phone held the phone tighter.

From the time Wen Xia started high school until now, he has only attended one parent-teacher meeting. The two had a big fight that time and didn't say a word to each other for most of half a month.

Wen Xia ate a spoonful of rice, thought about the things at the factory, and asked, "Dad, do you have time? If you have time, come."

"I have time. There's nothing happening at the factory recently." Winder's voice sounded a little unnatural.

"Hey, then Dad, you come to the meeting and do some hard labor for me. I have a few thick padded jackets that I haven't washed yet, and I'm worried about how to take them back." Wen Xia could tell he was lying and smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed.

"Yeah, okay."

After Wend agreed, he hung up the phone. Wen Xia's words "Dad, have you eaten yet?" reached the back of his throat but he heard two "beep" sounds and then held them back.

Jiang Yan glanced at her and said weakly, "Xia Xia, Uncle Wen is coming to the parents' meeting?"

Wen Xia nodded.

Jiang Yan looked like she was about to die. "It's over, it's over. My dad will definitely discuss this with Uncle Wen. If he knows that our grades are so different, he will definitely beat me up when he gets home."

Jiang Yan's father and Wen De were elementary school classmates, but they didn't really have much friendship, because Wen Xia and Jiang Yan hung out together, they would talk to each other occasionally when they met.

"Yanyan, remember to call me when you are beaten so that I can hear your screams of pain." Liu Anan stabbed her "wound" again.

Jiang Yan moved the bowl away from Liu Anan, turned away and pretended to be angry, "Liu Anan! Break up with me."

"Hey, come here, I'll give you the last piece of lean meat." Liu Anan coaxed with a smile.

Wen Xia was watching the show from the side, laughing with great joy.

Qi Yu, who was not far away, chuckled, retracted his gaze, picked up a large piece of noodles with chopsticks and started sucking.

After dinner, Wen Xia returned to the classroom and found a bottle of milk on the table with a note underneath.

I owe you.

Wen Xia knew who it was—Qi Yu.

A few days ago, Qi Yu asked her to borrow his homework to copy, and after she finished copying, he said he would treat her to milk another day.

She passed the milk to the classmate behind her and whispered, "Please pass it to Qi Yu."

Qi Yu, who was standing behind, looked at the milk passed over from the table. After a few seconds, he stood up and walked to Wen Xia's position and put the milk on her table. "I don't want to drink it." Without waiting for Wen Xia to answer, he left.

The students around all looked over here, as if they had seen something fishy going on.

Wen Xia hesitated for a moment and put the milk into the drawer.

Su Bo pushed Jiang Xu next to him and said in a low voice, "Qi Yu doesn't like Wen Xia, I've seen him buy things for Wen Xia several times."

"Brother, you're feeling a sense of crisis. Qi Yu's father works in the Education Bureau. He's good-looking, and three or four girls in his class like him." His voice got lower and lower.

Jiang Xu was playing games enthusiastically. When he heard this, he looked at Wen Xia, then at Qi Yu, and immediately put his phone into the drawer in annoyance. "My dad warned me not to fall in love too early. He said that if I dare to fall in love too early, he would immediately transfer me to another school."

At this point, he angrily cursed, "Who is the one who is sick and makes random reports? I will beat him up if I know who it is."

If he and Wen Xia were in love, he would admit it if someone reported him, but the key is that they were not in love, so now Cao Jun is keeping a close eye on him and Wen Xia is deliberately avoiding him.

"Fuck, I'm going out to cool down a bit."

The voice was a little loud, and the students around heard it and discussed it in a low voice.

"Wen Xia and Jiang Xu broke up, they haven't been talking to each other much."

"It's probably true. I saw Wen Xia crying in the dormitory a few days ago."

"No wonder Wen Xia's eyes are swollen."

…

After the fifth class, the school let the students go home early, and the cafeteria didn’t even cook any rice.

Some parents arrived early and were already waiting outside on the balcony.

Winder was among them. He was wearing a smart black casual suit and his hair was combed back, obviously having been carefully groomed.

Wen Xia ran over happily, carrying a school bag and several bags of clothes, "Dad."

"Um."

Winder nodded and glanced at the things in her hand. "The car is at the school gate. Let's find a place to eat after you park it." Then he gave her the car keys.

"Okay." Wen Xia saw that he had his hands in his pockets and knew that he was a little nervous. She walked over and whispered, "Dad, I've been very obedient recently. The teachers all praise me. Dad won't be scolded by the teachers."

Without waiting for Wend to answer, she waved her hand and said, "Dad, I'm leaving."

When her back disappeared from his sight, Winder lowered his head with a smile on his face.

The parent-teacher meeting will start on time at one o'clock.

Cao Jun took a stack of report cards and handed them out to the parents one by one. "These are the test scores for this semester. I have marked the students who have made progress with a red pen. Parents can take a look."

When Wend got the list, he immediately saw Wen Xia, who was marked in red, and ranked third in the class.

After waiting for 1 minute, Cao Jun stood on the podium and began to analyze the results. "Parents have seen the results now and have a general idea of ​​what's going on. To be honest, their results are not ideal. It's a bit difficult for them to get into a good university, so the school held this parents' meeting. I hope that parents can help supervise their children at home."

In order to let the parents better understand the disparity in grades, he used Qin Mo as a "teaching material" and asked, "Parents, do you know how many points the top student in Jiazhong got in the exam this time?"

The parents shook their heads.

"743 points, only seven points deducted." Cao Jun said.

All the parents exclaimed "Wow", and Winder was also very surprised. 743 points was indeed very high.

After saying a lot, he mentioned Wen Xia, "Dear parents, please take a look at Wen Xia's grades. She has made the most significant progress among all the students in Class 8 and is worthy of praise."

"Here, I would like to invite Wen Xia's father to come to the podium and share with everyone how Wen Xia usually studies at home."

Everyone was looking at who was Wen Xia's father, their eyes were full of envy, because other people's children just had good grades.

Wen De was stunned for a moment when Cao Jun suddenly called his name. When he reacted, he stood up and walked to the podium. Facing the gazes of dozens of parents, he straightened his back calmly and said, "Hello everyone, I am Wen Xia's father, Wen De..."

After Wend finished sharing, Cao Jun took the lead in clapping, and the parents followed suit.

Cao Jun said: "For weak subjects, if conditions permit, you can take extra classes like classmate Wen Xia."

…

When Wen De left the school, Wen Xia had finished her meal and was sitting in the car finishing a physics test. When she heard the car door open, she looked up and said, "Dad."

"Um."

Wend got in the car, fastened his seat belt, started the car, and pursed his lips, "Teacher Cao praised you, Xia Xia, keep working hard."

You are daddy's pride.
