"So it was that little bastard surnamed Chu!"
Li Yanbai suddenly stood up, put his hands behind his back, and paced back and forth in the pavilion, his expression a mixture of anger and anxiety.
"Well, wasn't it said that our daughter had a one-sided crush on me? It's only been a few days, and we're already together? She even gave me a gift!"
"This kid's got some skills! What's his family's financial situation that they can afford to give him cigarettes and Moutai?"
"If they have ulterior motives or ill intentions, I won't accept it!"
Zhang Xiaoyu, standing to the side, was both amused and exasperated: "Okay, stop for a second. Can't you just talk? You're making me dizzy!"
Li Yanbai paused, his voice gruff as he said, "Tell me, we haven't even met the person, yet the gift has already arrived. What exactly is this kid trying to do?"
Zhang Xiaoyu picked up her teacup and slowly took a sip: "What I mean is, you only know how to be filial to your father, but you don't know that you also have me as your mother. I'm a little unhappy about that."
Li Yanbai was taken aback: "Is that the point?"
Zhang Xiaoyu rolled her eyes at him: "You didn't grasp the key point either."
Li Yanbai sat down huffily: "Then what's the key point?"
Zhang Xiaoyu put down her teacup and said seriously, "The key point is whether he is genuinely good to Shuer, what his character is like, how his grades are, whether he has any bad habits, and what his family situation is like. These are the things we should care about!"
Li Yanbai crossed his legs and said, "How would I know!"
Zhang Xiaoyu: "..."
She picked up a cup of tea, stood up, and walked out of the pavilion.
"Since the gift has already been delivered to your door, just accept it. I'm going to talk to my daughter. Don't come and interfere."
"Okay, okay." Li Yanbai waved his hand.
Then his gaze fell on the cigarettes and alcohol, his expression shifting between light and dark.
"Hmph, you think you can bribe me with this little bit?"
"But this brat has successfully piqued my interest!"
…
Do you and him share common interests?
What kind of person is he? Is he good-tempered?
"What about your grades?"
Inside the room, facing her mother Zhang Xiaoyu's questions.
This time, Li Qingshu answered seriously.
“He doesn’t know much about music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, but he’s very interested in them and says he wants to learn from me.”
"He's a very nice person. He has a good temper and speaks very gently, but sometimes he can be quite domineering. His classmates are afraid to mess with him, but he won't bully anyone."
"His academic performance... is better than mine. He scored 702 points in this mock exam, ranking first in the grade."
"The teacher said he has a good chance of becoming this year's top scorer in the province!"
As she spoke, a hint of arrogance appeared on her face.
Zhang Xiaoyu was stunned.
Putting aside his family background, this guy is simply outstanding!
If that's the case, then the daughter has excellent taste.
Based solely on his academic performance, he is undoubtedly a top scholar, deserving of the title of "a dragon among men" and "a crane from heaven."
She happens to be good-looking, has a good personality, and is neither troublesome nor afraid of trouble.
This is the best choice for a future son-in-law!
Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaoyu's smile widened: "Like I said last time, when the holidays come, bring him over to meet Mom and Dad, okay?"
"Mmm." Li Qingshu nodded shyly and responded softly.
…
"Okay, I understand. I'll eat on time. Don't worry. You all need to be careful and have fun."
Chu Yang returned home and made a phone call to his parents who had arrived in Guilin.
Suddenly I felt like there was nothing else to do besides studying and reading.
Little Pear is under house arrest and can't come over to play before the college entrance exam; she can't even come over to get her hair washed.
The young lady comes from a strict family and it's difficult to meet her in her spare time.
Shen Nansheng went on another business trip.
Han Dachun also needs to make the most of every minute to study.
Today is the 18th, and there are 17 days left until the college entrance examination.
Chu Yang has thoroughly mastered all the knowledge points he needs to know, and he is confident that he can score over 700 points in the college entrance examination.
So, what should we do to have some fun?
I'd better read books and study.
The next few days passed peacefully.
After returning from Guilin, Lao Chu and Tony Fang went out again the next day. This time, they went to Beijing to see the capital's splendor and experience the majestic scenery of the Forbidden City and the Great Wall.
Seeing how happy and carefree they were, Chu Yang felt that he was a truly filial son.
As the college entrance examination draws closer, the atmosphere in the entire grade becomes increasingly tense.
Every teacher seemed to be holding a whip and lashing out from behind, eager to cram all the knowledge into everyone's heads.
As one of the top students, Chu Yang received special attention from the principal and teachers, who called him over several times for extra tutoring and coaching.
Especially Chu Yang, Old Chen specially took out last year's college entrance examination papers from various provinces to test him, and after several tests, he was able to score more than 700 points each time.
He was able to handle even the notoriously difficult exam papers from Henan and Jiangsu with ease, and even surpassed the scores of the top scorers in those two provinces last year!
This greatly encouraged the principal and teachers.
The principal couldn't help but boldly declare: "This year's provincial champion will definitely be from Fanhua No. 2 Middle School!"
To ensure the top scorer's physical and mental well-being and to allow him to be in the best possible condition for the college entrance examination, the principal granted him special permission to reserve a small table in the teachers' canteen.
They even thoughtfully invited Li Qingshu to come along as well.
So the two of them ate at lunchtime every day like they were going to a restaurant, and their meals were incredibly nutritious and healthy.
These past few days, Shen Nansheng changed the betting odds, and Chu Yang played a few rounds with him, earning another 1.5 million.
The two planned to pull off one last big win during the final match on the 30th, to finish the season perfectly.
