Chapter 29 [2nd update, 7000 nutrient solution extra update]

Huo Xihuai paused: "..."

He hadn't noticed it at first, but Huo Yuyan's attempt to hide his true intention made his eyes fall on him subtly.

Then he saw Miss Shen looking at Huo Yuyan with a bad expression.

He was about to be scolded again, and he lowered his head, unable to bear it.

But I felt secretly relieved in my heart.

It seemed that their relationship had really developed well during the time he was away from home.

Miss Shen and her brother actually came to the parent-teacher meeting together today. Huo Xihuai was actually a little surprised.

He thought neither of them would come.

Huo Xihuai didn't know why he felt secretly happy in his heart. He felt lighter and led the way for them: "This way, go upstairs to our class."

Huo Yuyan and Shen Yuntang looked at each other, and the other shook his hand off with force.

He snorted coldly and left.

Huo Yuyan wanted to say something, but felt that he probably shouldn't speak, so he just kept silent and followed them.

When he went upstairs, he suddenly asked, "Xihuai, how is Haizhong?"

Huo Xihuai was stunned for a moment, turned his head, and then seemed to smile.

"fine."

It seems that education really has a great impact on transforming people.

The old Huo Xihuai was never this lively. I have already said three sentences to him.

Fortunately, Shen Yuntang forced him to go to school.

Huo Yuyan was stunned by this idea.

Along the way, they actually saw several classmates greeting Huo Xihuai.

"Is this your parent?" a classmate asked curiously.

Huo Xihuai paused and said, "It's my brother and his wife."

"Wow, she's so pretty." The classmate whispered with envy, "Is she an actress? Or a dancer?"

"——I'm in business." Shen Yuntang said suddenly.

The classmates and Huo Xihuai were all shocked. They didn't expect that she heard it and her face turned red.

Shen Yuntang raised her chin and said, "Call me a female entrepreneur from now on."

The classmate was shocked: "Sister, you are so beautiful and so powerful!"

Shen Yuntang smiled proudly: "Of course."

Huo Yuyan: "..."

It's okay, when he doesn't exist.

By the time they sat down in the classroom, most people had already arrived. Huo Yuyan took a look and saw that no one was sitting next to Huo Xihuai yet.

He pondered for a moment and asked, "Xihuai, how does your deskmate treat you?"

Huo Xihuai's smile faded a little. After a moment, he lowered his head and said, "Not very good."

Then the fact that that family had bullied him could almost be settled once and for all.

He continued, "We met his parents in the parking lot, and they insisted that you had to cheat on his paper in order to pass the chemistry competition."

Huo Xihuai suddenly clenched his fists.

He didn't want to cause trouble for his brother and Miss Shen, so he kept silent. After all, Huo Xihuai knew that he had been away from school for too long, and few people would believe that he got grades that others didn't get when he came back in the first grade.

But he really didn't.

Every point and every step he took came from the repeated copying and correction he had done day and night in the past.

He was looking down when he suddenly heard his brother say, "Congratulations."

Huo Xihuai was stunned.

"You forgot to tell us that you did so well in the exam that some idiots thought you cheated." He touched Huo Xihuai's head, "I told you that you are a genius."

He raised his head and saw the proud look on Huo Yuyan's face.

He was a little dazed.

Huo Yuyan continued, "You did well in the monthly exam, didn't you? Miss Shen just told them that she would slap them in the face with the monthly exam results. Don't embarrass Miss Shen."

Huo Xihuai was even more stunned.

It took him a while to react.

them……

You actually stood up for him?

He looked at Shen Yuntang. She still had her usual expression, no fluctuations, and even seemed sarcastic.

But it was this careless look that beat back his stepbrother and biological mother, and sent him into the sea with great momentum.

Huo Xihuai felt very strange.

In his previous life, he was on the verge of despair several times because of her.

In this life, he became the person protected by Miss Shen.

He looked at Huo Yuyan and Shen Yuntang, and suddenly felt a little itchy in his throat. Finally, he lowered his eyes and nodded lightly but solemnly.

"Um."

"No."

A teacher walked onto the stage, and the noise below quieted down. Shen Yuntang looked up and saw that it was Mr. Lin, the vice-principal from last time.

Huo Xihuai explained in a low voice: "Teacher Lin teaches chemistry and is our head teacher."

That's good.

Shen Yuntang nodded casually.

On the stage, she spoke seriously about the class's learning situation since the beginning of the school year, explained the busy schedule for preparing for the senior year in the next few months, and emphasized some issues where the attitude was not right.

Finally, her expression relaxed and she said, "Next, I would like to focus on praising some students in our class. They have worked hard since the beginning of the school year, overcome all difficulties, and made a lot of progress in their studies, especially -"

Before he could finish his words, the door was pushed open with a clang.

The family of three who were taken away for spitting walked in awkwardly, crossed the stage as if nothing had happened, and found a seat to sit down.

Teacher Lin's expression turned serious.

The family of three sat down hurriedly, and when they looked up they found that Huo Yuyan and Shen Yuntang were there too.

The big belly's face changed immediately. Just as he was about to say something, he heard the teacher on the podium cough lightly and said, "Mr. Li Mingzhi, why are you here so late?"

The big belly just realized that everyone in the classroom was looking at him.

He choked and was about to say something else when he heard the man next to him say indifferently, "You were fined for spitting on the ground."

The whole class: “…”

Li Mingzhi was so angry that he almost flipped the table. His son was so embarrassed that he quickly pulled him to sit down and whispered to him: "Dad, stop making trouble. It's embarrassing!"

Only then did his father sit down with a grim face.

Teacher Lin cleared his throat, as if he was a little speechless: "Well... For such an important parent-teacher meeting, I personally hope that all parents will arrive on time, otherwise they will miss the important content before."

Li Mingzhi's face turned red and white, and after a while he said, "We just couldn't find the way and took the wrong way..."

"A twenty-dollar fine for spitting."

The man next to him crossed his legs and leaned back in his chair.

The whole class once again cast meaningful glances at the big belly: "..."

To be honest, when faced with a handsome and respectable man and a nouveau riche with a greasy belly, 99% of people will still follow their inner choices and believe the former.

He looks reliable.

"Ahem, let's continue." Teacher Lin interrupted the anger of Li Mingzhi's parents and said, "Some students in our class have worked very hard this semester. Not only have they balanced their studies in various subjects, but they have also achieved excellent results in the subjects they are good at. In this regard, they are very worthy of praise."

The big belly's expression finally eased a little.

This statement sounds like it is meant to praise students who are good at certain subjects. His son has always been one of the best in chemistry, and he is not too weak in other subjects either. After all, he has a place in the list. Wouldn't it be a good thing for him to be praised like this?

So he calmly waited for Teacher Lin's praise, and even thought of how to answer her question, "How did you educate such an excellent child?" He enrolled his son in so many classes, and the money was not wasted.

Teacher Lin looked down at the list and then read out the names one by one.

"Chinese, classmate Simin."

"Mathematics, classmate Zeng Chu."

"English, Zhao Hui."

…

Finally, we got to chemistry. The first few did ask the parents to briefly introduce the education method. When we got to chemistry, Big Belly was so excited that he wanted to stand up before he was called.

"Chemistry." Teacher Lin glanced at the list and saw the subject he had taught all his life. He smiled with satisfaction and read out the name of the class under the expectant gaze of everyone in the audience:

"Student Huo Xihuai."

The legs of the stool, which were sticking up due to the big belly, stopped.

He nearly fell to the ground with a bang, but his son quickly caught him.

The whole class's eyes turned to him again.

His face changed drastically and he asked, "Teacher, why is Li Mingzhi not here?"

Teacher Lin paused unhappily and said, "Parent, I understand how you feel, but we only have one quota for each subject, and it will be given to the student with outstanding grades."

The big belly was furious and even slammed the table. "My son has always ranked first in chemistry. Why don't you praise him this time? Is it because he didn't make it to that crappy competition that you think he's not good enough?"

Teacher Lin frowned and said, "We treat every student fairly. I hope this parent won't get too excited."

Li Mingzhi quickly held his father back and whispered, "Dad, I beg you, don't embarrass yourself. I still want to study in this class in the future!"

The big belly paused and said through gritted teeth: "She will regret it when the monthly exam results come out. Why is she partial to Huo Xihuai? Is a cheater as good as you?"

"He did plagiarize, but if you want to make a fuss, do it in private!" Li Mingzhi said, "Don't lose your temper, it's so embarrassing."

After hearing what his son said, Big Belly stopped reluctantly.

Teacher Lin looked at the father and son and let out a breath calmly.

It was rare for her to say something unpleasant in her heart: You can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth.

Teacher Lin straightened his face and said kindly to the somewhat dazed Huo Xihuai: "Student Huo Xihuai, please ask your parents to express their thoughts on education."

Huo Xihuai was stunned for a moment and turned to look at the two people next to him.

Normally, they didn't have much tacit understanding, but now they both folded their arms, crossed their legs and leaned back in their chairs in tacit understanding, and neither of them thought of taking the initiative to talk to the other.

When Huo Yuyan heard Teacher Lin invite him, he was even stunned.

The whole class looked over again.

This time the couple looks much more pleasing to the eye. With such good looks, no wonder the boy Huo Xihuai is also handsome. Many female classmates like him. His family genes are good.

Being stared at like this, Huo Yuyan, who often gave speeches in front of thousands of people and appeared in interviews, felt strangely embarrassed for a moment.

He had a cold and elite face, and suddenly nudged Shen Yuntang with his elbow, and whispered, "You can say it, go ahead."

Shen Yuntang ignored him.

He was a little anxious and was about to encourage him again when he heard Shen Yuntang speak.

"Educational experience?"

She said coldly, "Let him work hard on his own."

The whole class: “…”

Teacher Lin: “…” Forget it. It seems that she shouldn’t have any theoretical expectations for this parent who always solves problems with actions.

Huo Yuyan coughed quickly and added, "It's true that Huo Xihuai is quite self-disciplined. When he is at home, he finds questions to do every day. After he changed his phone, the first chat record he sent me was to ask me to help buy teaching aids. The software in his phone is all learning apps, so we don't worry about anything."

...Damn, it’s this kind of student.

No wonder that particularly beautiful parent told him to work hard on his own.

Other classmates and parents couldn't help but look up to them.

When Teacher Lin heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then he thought, it seemed... not unexpected.

Huo Xihuai seemed to be more sensible than his two parents.

She smiled helplessly.

And she looked at this student she liked very much and found that he had his head down, as if he was writing or drawing something seriously in the book, and he was not looking around.

Are you sorry?

She felt that the little boy was even more lovable.

But, it's okay.

He now has such a brother and sister-in-law.

Although they had no obligation to raise him, they treated him much better than his biological parents.

How many biological parents cannot do what they do, always standing behind him without asking reasons, speaking up for him and standing up for him unwaveringly?

Teacher Lin chuckled and shook his head.

The whole parents' meeting ended under the hostile gaze of Li Mingzhi's parents. Teacher Lin called on everyone to move around because the family sports meeting would start soon. After the sports meeting, the monthly test results would be announced, and then the monthly holiday would begin.

Huo Xihuai lowered his head to tie his shoelaces, then suddenly raised his head and asked them carefully, "Brother, are you joining us?"

He didn't even dare to ask Miss Shen. Miss Shen would definitely not bother to pay attention to him. Not to mention asking her to go to the sports meet, it would be unfair to her even to ask her to sit by and watch.

Huo Yuyan paused and said, "Yes."

The main reason is that he doesn't know what the projects are. If something embarrassing would affect his image as a cold and elite, he wouldn't participate and would just watch for fun.

As expected, Shen Yuntang ignored him.

Huo Xihuai breathed a sigh of relief and smiled slightly: "Thank you, brother."

Huo Yuyan made a mistake.

There are three events in the family sports meet: rope skipping, relay race and obstacle race. No matter how you look at it, you can't see which one will not be in a mess. He even thought there would be figure skating and javelin throwing or something.

"Do you know how to figure skate?" Shen Yuntang sneered beside him.

Huo Yuyan paused and said righteously, "Of course."

He said, “I learned it when I was six.”

He continued to prove his ability: "The coach said that if I keep practicing, I still have a chance to jump 3A!"

"If I hadn't gone into business you would have only seen me at the Winter Olympics!"

Shen Yuntang walked forward on his own.

Her voice was lazy and mocking: "Jump the big rope first and then jump 3A, Mr. Huo."

Huo Yuyan: "..."

He moved and sat in the audience seats nearby, as if he had completely forgotten that he was going to participate in the competition, and watched the game calmly and contentedly.

The competition was in full swing and fierce. In order to encourage their children, every parent tried their best to jump rope.

Huo Yuyan leaned back and was about to continue his audience attitude when a family of three suddenly passed by him.

"Mom, I want the last prize!"

"Honey, I want it too. Shall we go compete?"

"'Excellent Family', this certificate hanging at home is such a wonderful memory. When my daughter thinks of her senior year in high school, she will remember the three of us jumping rope together in the playground. She will definitely be very moved when she thinks of it when she is old."

"That's right, husband, baby, let's go!"

“…”

Huo Yuyan changed his leg and put it on top.

After a while, he changed legs.

Then he couldn't help but pick up a sports meeting progress sheet beside him and started looking at it. He had already completed several rounds of skipping rope, and the registration for the relay race had also ended. Now the only event left was the most intense obstacle race.

Why is it the most intense? Because it requires two parents to cooperate in the competition.

How can you cooperate? He doesn't care whether you hold him in his arms or on his back, he just wants you to cooperate.

He put the progress sheet down again.

Shen Yuntang was sitting in the row in front of him, not moving at all, even holding an umbrella that he had taken out from somewhere, looking even more relaxed than him.

After a while, Huo Yuyan couldn't help it and said suddenly: "Shen Yuntang."

I ignored her before.

"...Ms. Shen?"

Shen Yuntang still ignored him.

He paused, leaned over, and moved closer to Shen Yuntang's seat. He gestured with the progress sheet and asked tentatively, "Are you going to run to the obstacle?"

Shen Yuntang was holding a small fan that appeared from nowhere in his hand and looked at him coldly.

"You look like an obstacle to me."

"..." Huo Yuyan hesitated to speak. After a while, reason told him to give up as soon as possible.

He had just returned to his seat when Li Mingzhi and his family of three passed by them.

"Son! Dad will definitely win you the "Excellent Family" award. Huo Xihuai is nothing. I will earn your face back in front of the whole school! Let's go and run to the obstacle course!"

The air was silent for a moment.

After a while, he saw Shen Yuntang slowly turn his head. Although his face was expressionless, his eyes were burning with faint flames like those of an animated character.

"..." He paused for a moment and finished the sentence for her, "...Huo Yuyan, come up?"

…

Congratulations to Huo Yuyan for learning to tame himself.

Twenty minutes later, when he and Shen Yuntang were standing on the sidelines, they actually felt that things and people had changed a lot.

Just by coincidence, they were assigned to the opposing group with Li Mingzhi's parents.

Seeing them, Big Belly was stunned for a moment, and then seemed to find it funny and couldn't help laughing: "You guys want to participate too? Hahaha, wife, they want to participate too!"

"Look how I beat them to their knees!"

His wife had already jumped onto his back in triumph.

A big belly has at least one advantage, which is its large weight. In an obstacle race, it is inevitable to bump into things, and having large weight gives you an advantage.

Huo Yuyan was silent for a moment, and was just about to ask Miss Shen if she would like to condescend to let him carry her on his back, when Shen Yuntang jumped directly on him, neatly locking his neck and clamping his waist.

Huo Yuyan was almost strangled by her.

Before he could catch his breath, Shen Yuntang pointed ahead with a cold face: "Huo Yuyan, run!"

That seemed more natural than commanding her Husky.

Mr. Huo finally caught his breath. He held her with one hand and unbuttoned his collar with the other to save himself. He took a few deep breaths and was still thinking deeply about what he was trying to do when the referee fired the gun.

Shen Yuntang slapped him on the forehead and shouted in a tender voice: "Run!"

Huo Yuyan: "..."

Shen Yuntang's desire to win is really strong!

He sighed, held her tightly, and ran forward.

Huo Xihuai only realized that the two of them had come on the court when he heard the sudden increase in cheers from the audience.

He was stunned for a moment, stood up from the registration seat, asked someone to help him register, quickly turned around and ran to the edge of the stadium, and merged into the crowd to watch.

His cold, elite, domineering brother and the arrogant and pampered Miss Shen were like wild dogs on a loose rein, running wildly on the track.

Huo Xihuai was stunned in the wind.

Big Belly went around an obstacle post and saw that the two of them had quickly caught up with him and were about to overtake him, so he suddenly became anxious.

When passing the next obstacle, he gritted his teeth and pretended to run off the track and bumped into Huo Yuyan.

The impact was quite strong. If Huo Yuyan hadn't practiced his lower body for many years, Shen Yuntang would have been knocked out. He turned and slowed down a bit, holding Shen Yuntang tightly again. At the same time, he felt the pressure on his back reach the extreme.

"Will she run away?" Shen Yuntang asked faintly. People who are familiar with her know that her anger level has reached its peak.

Huo Yuyan: "...Yes."

Shen Yuntang hugged his neck tightly and commanded: "Kill him!"

Huo Yuyan: "Loosen up a bit..."

Shen Yuntang snorted coldly, grabbed his clothes tightly, and said in a rage, "Hit him! If you get hurt, it's my fault!"

“…You’re really crazy.”

Huo Yuyan was speechless.

Although he said this, his mood was not much better than Shen Yuntang's.

He quickened his pace and ran towards the big belly. As he ran, he heard him sighing heavily and helplessly: "...It's for both of us."

Huo Yuyan gathered his strength for the last time, and before the final turning point came, he hit the big belly with all his strength.

The big-bellied man stumbled and fell out.

On the last stretch of the road, Huo Yuyan stabilized his breath which was a little disordered due to the acceleration, and continued to run forward.

Seeing this, the man with a big belly ignored the pain, pushed his wife off his back, got up and ran. Without any burden, he ran faster and faster, and finally reached the finish line before Huo Yuyan.

The champion is decided.

Huo Yuyan then ran to the finish line carrying Shen Yuntang on his back. He slowly stopped, put Shen Yuntang down, and then he supported himself on his knees and gasped for breath.

Soaked in sweat, his clothes were disheveled, and his image of a cold and elite was long gone.

Shen Yuntang didn't look tired at all. After coming down, he sat aside and stared at him.

The big belly was stunned for a moment, then realized that he was the first to arrive. He immediately laughed out loud: "Hahahaha, we won!"

Shen Yuntang leaned back leisurely with his arms folded.

"I lost," she said.

Huo Yuyan panted, barely calmed down a little, propped up his knees and raised his eyes, suddenly speaking righteously: "No matter what - you can't - abandon Miss Shen."

Shen Yuntang: “…” His breathing was quite rhythmic.

Before he finished speaking, the referee came over with a whistle in his mouth and raised his hand to signal: "Because number one left his teammate behind, the championship goes to number two who arrived together. Congratulations!"

Huo Yuyan paused.

The big belly was also stunned.

After a moment, Huo Yuyan suddenly became proud: "I knew it."

Huo Yuyan: "This is the same pattern in comics."

Shen Yuntang rolled his eyes at him.

She pushed Huo Yuyan away and shouted at Li Mingzhi's parents who were shouting about the unfairness of the referee: "Shut up!"

The big belly was actually scared by her and stopped talking.

"I've said that I'm the best at bullying people, but there are always people who don't believe me and want to experience it themselves." Shen Yuntang gradually smiled, "Do you like to spread rumors? Do you like to be the first to complain? Do you still want face?"

She casually turned on the broadcast switch of the referee's office next to her.

Her lazy voice spread throughout the school - "Mr. Li Mingzhi, you were fined for spitting, but why did you pee your pants?"
