"Dad, you're back. Come wash your hands and come over for dinner."
When Qiao Chu walked out of the kitchen with a bowl of tomato and egg drop soup, he saw Qiao Weimin standing at the door in a daze.
"Chu Chu?" Qiao Weimin didn't expect Qiao Chu to come out of the kitchen. He thought it was a relative who came over. These dishes were made by relatives. "Chu Chu, you can cook? You made all these dishes?"
Qiao Weimin asked in disbelief.
"Yeah, I thought cooking was simple, so I tried making it myself, and I didn't expect it to taste so good."
Qiao Weimin washed his hands dazedly, went to sit at the dining table, and looked at the rich food, not knowing where to start.
"Come on, Dad, have some big shrimp. I bought them this morning. They're very fresh."
Qiao Chu picked up a shrimp and put it in his bowl.
Qiao Weimin put the shrimp into his mouth, and a fresh and sweet taste immediately spread out, "Mm, it's delicious!"
He didn't expect the taste to be so good. It felt as good as the ones in restaurants outside. However, when he thought about his daughter who had learned to cook at such a young age, he suddenly felt that he had neglected his duty as a father. "Chu Chu, don't cook by yourself in the future. You are still too young. There are fires and knives in the kitchen. It's too dangerous. Don't hurt yourself. Don't you have enough pocket money? I'll give you some more later. If you don't have enough, call me anytime. Go out and find a better restaurant to eat and order more dishes. Don't worry about the money. Dad can support you."
"No need, Dad. I still have plenty of pocket money. I can't spend it all."
Qiao Chu looked at the man in front of her. He was a simple father. Although he didn't have any great abilities and didn't make much money, he was the man who loved her the most in the world. In her previous life, he ran around to support his family, suffered from hunger and finally got a terminal illness. This has always been a regret in her heart, and it is also what she wants to make up for in this life.
It is a human tragedy when a son wants to support his parents but they are no longer around.
"Don't be stingy with your money, just buy whatever you like." Qiao Weimin added, "It's all because your dad is incompetent and can't give you a rich life. Otherwise, your mom wouldn't have taken Lili away, causing you to lose your mom's love..."
When talking about sad things, Qiao Weimin's eyes welled up with tears and he almost cried, but he tried his best to hold it back as he didn't want to lose his composure in front of his daughter.
"Dad, it's okay, really!" Qiao Chu held Qiao Weimin's hand on the table, "I don't want a rich life, this is good enough, and I don't need mom's love, I'm grown up and know how to take care of myself, Dad, you don't have to blame yourself, it's not your fault, mom is gone, I don't blame her, it's her choice, I have no right to interfere, and I don't want you to take the responsibility on yourself."
Qiao Chu said emotionally: "And I still have my father who loves me. You didn't give me a rich life, but you raised me for fifteen years. During these fifteen years, I didn't go hungry or cold. You also sent me to school and let me receive the best education. I lived a very happy life."
Father’s love is deep, as high as a mountain and as deep as the sea.
Qiao Weimin has given her the best possible thing.
"You are a qualified and good father."
These words have always been hidden in Qiao Chu's heart, and she had no chance to speak them out. Influenced by Confucianism, Chinese people are always more subtle and reserved, unable to express their love directly, which became a regret in her previous life.
In her previous life, she personally sent Qiao Weimin away and witnessed with her own eyes how a healthy man suffered from illness and pain, unable to sleep all night long. He would vomit what he ate immediately, eating and vomiting, vomiting and eating over and over again, until he gradually became emaciated and lifeless...
In this life, she must keep her father healthy, always by her side, watch her become more and more outstanding, and make him proud!
After hearing what Qiao Chu said, Qiao Weimin finally couldn't help crying...
After a while, he calmed down, smiled, and said with relief: "Chu Chu, you have grown up, Dad is so happy!"
He didn't expect to hear such words from his daughter today. All the sadness and depression during this period of time were swept away at once. It was as if a huge rock had been removed from his heart. He felt completely relieved. "Dad will work hard for a while longer and try to make more money. Then, I will open a small shop near home. Then I won't have to travel around anymore and can stay at home with you more."
Qiao Weimin has already thought about it. He can't be away from home for ten days or half a month like before. Now Qiao Chu is the only one left at home, and he is worried. Besides, his daughter is now in the first year of high school, and her studies will become more and more demanding in the future, and she will also need an adult to take care of her.
"Yeah, okay."
Qiao Chu naturally agreed with both hands. If her father was at home all year round, he would not have such irregular eating habits like he does now. She could watch him eat well at any time. Wouldn't that help him avoid stomach cancer?
Very good! She thought happily.
Qiao Weimin stayed at home for two days, and forced a lot of pocket money into Qiao Chu's pocket. He left with great satisfaction and reluctance. He couldn't delay his work. He had to earn more money and work hard to give his daughter a better life!
After seeing his father off, Qiao Chu began to immerse himself in boring studies day after day. The teacher was right. After entering high school, time passed quickly. It felt like the school had just started not long ago. In two days, they would have midterm exams.
In order to get good grades, Qiao Chu started reviewing a week ago.
"Beep Beep Beep - Random tasks are released. Get a top five score in the midterm exam. Task rewards - IQ increased by 10, and a 10:1 time amplifier."
Unexpectedly, at this time, Ling Ling Yi suddenly issued a task.
"10:1 time amplifier?" Qiao Chu had never heard of it. "What is this? What is it used for?"
"This is a good thing. I hope the master will work hard to get it." Ling Lingyi said, "With it, the master can slow down the time in the system study room by ten times. In other words, if the master stays in the system study room for ten hours, only one hour will pass outside. If the master stays in the system study room for ten days, only one day will pass outside."
Is it really that magical?
Doesn't that mean she has more time to study than others? She had always felt that she didn't have enough time. The saying "the ocean of learning has no boundaries" was right. The ocean of knowledge was endless. The more she learned, the more she felt that she hadn't learned enough and that she would never have enough time. She had never expected that the system would have such a good thing...
She must get it!
Afterwards, Jia Xianxian discovered that Qiao Chu had become more diligent. She was rarely seen even during breaks. She would catch the teacher asking questions in just ten minutes. She was either studying or on her way to study all day...
Alas - my good friend has been completely taken away by studying, and I can't pull him back...
After a few days, the midterm exam finally arrived.
The midterm exam is not as formal as the final exam. There is no need to arrange exam rooms. Students can take the exam in their own classes. The desks are just spaced apart to prevent cheating.
The first subject that Qiao Chu and her classmates took was mathematics. She took a quick glance at the paper and was immediately relieved. It was a little harder than the last quiz, but not that much harder.
It only took her twenty minutes to finish the test paper. However, she did not rush to hand it in. Instead, she checked it from the beginning to make sure she was not careless in any way. After all, this was related to whether she could get the time amplifier.
After checking it carefully several times, she finally nodded with satisfaction. At this time, the time was up and Liu Qing collected the papers. When she saw Qiao Chu's paper, she took a special look at it. She was a Chinese teacher and didn't understand math, but seeing that Qiao Chu's paper was full and there was no blank space, she smiled with satisfaction.
The midterm exam covered a total of nine subjects, namely: Chinese, mathematics, English, physics, chemistry, history, geography, politics and biology.
The exam lasted two full days.
As soon as the exam was over, Liu Qing couldn't wait to return to the office with the test paper, found Qiao Chu's test paper, and started grading it.
——Yes, that’s right.
--correct.
——Right again.
——Good answer!
Qiao Chu's grades were as good as last time. Not only did they not decline, but they got even better. He quoted a lot of classics in his composition and had a wealth of knowledge. It seemed that he had put in a lot of effort.
Liu Qing was satisfied and wrote a big "149" in red on Qiao Chu's paper. Yes, only one point was deducted, and this point was picked out by her nitpicking...
This time, the examination marking lasted for two days, and the results were not released as quickly as last time. After all, the midterm exam is a big exam, and there are nearly 700 students in the whole grade. Everyone's scores need to be counted and ranked.
"Beep beep beep - random mission completed, IQ increased by 10, 10:1 time amplifier issued."
"Beep beep beep - 6 extra points for a perfect score on the test. Which item would you like to add to it, Master?"
The rewards came rolling in, and Qiao Chu was overwhelmed with joy.
The results are out so soon?
"Yes, Master, the time amplifier you want has been issued. You can go and try it."
Qiao Chu couldn't wait to enter the system study room. There was a wall clock on the wall of the previously empty room, but it was very different from an ordinary wall clock.
An ordinary clock takes 12 hours to complete one circle, but this one takes 120 hours, which is 10 times longer than an ordinary clock!
It’s really amazing!
That night, Qiao Chu experienced the magic of the 10:1 time amplifier. She had clearly stayed in the space for 120 hours, which was five full days. When she came out, only 12 hours had passed outside. Moreover, her body seemed to have only passed 12 hours. She slept outside from 7pm to 7am...
marvelous! She will have more time to study in the future!
"Zero Zero One, you are amazing. You actually have something like this. It's beyond our comprehension. You must be from another planet, right?"
Qiao Chu felt that it was impossible for such a miraculous thing to exist on Earth. Such a magical thing was beyond the imagination of Earthlings and must be alien technology.
"Master, regarding the specific origins of the Learning God System, Ling Lingyi has nothing to tell you."
"Well, it's okay. You have to keep it a secret, right?" Qiao Chu said with understanding. She didn't really need to know, she just asked casually.
"However, I really hope that one day our Earth can also invent this kind of black technology to benefit more people."
There are many unknown areas and technologies on unknown planets that the people on Earth have not yet been able to explore. However, she believes that the world will become better and better...
