Chapter 33: Parent-Teacher Meeting

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Teacher Wang Jianjia informed the class of something when the evening self-study was about to end.

“Students, there’s something else I want to tell you. The school has decided to hold a parent-teacher meeting for the third year students tomorrow morning.”

“The school has already sent a message to all the parents about the parent-teacher meeting.”

“Tell your parents when you get back.”

“At the parent-teacher meeting tomorrow, we’ll also announce the results of the second mock exam. At the same time, we’ll also have to handle the class segregation for the bottom 100 students…”

“It’s very important. Unless there are very valid reasons, please ensure your parents attend the meeting.”

“That’s it. Class dismissed!” Wang Jianjia deliberately glanced at Li Chengqian.

Then, she realized that Li Chengqian was still sleeping on the table. She got a little upset.

She had initially wanted to inform Li Chengqian that he could be excused if there were special circumstances in his family.

This was because when Li Chengqian’s parents came to school and heard about Li Chengqian’s results, they might feel very embarrassed and would definitely lose face.

But Li Chengqian’s nonchalance made her even angrier. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got, so she left immediately.

“The school is so vicious. Isn’t this killing me? If my father finds out that I’m the last in class, I’ll definitely be taught a lesson when I go home.” The students who did not do well could not help but whine.

“What are you worried about? Look at Li Chengqian, the last place in our class. He’s still sleeping calmly and isn’t worried at all!” A student pointed at Li Chengqian, who was lying on the table, and gloated.

“When the teacher announces the results in public tomorrow, Li Chengqian’s parents will lose all their face. What good would he come to when he got home?” someone whispered.

“Tomorrow is the last day that Li Chengqian and I will sit at the same table. Going forward… we would not be from the same universe!” Jian Qingli packed her bag and walked out without turning back.

Liu Daqiang had a wicked smile on his face as he walked in front of Li Chengqian’s table. Then, he took out his phone and took a photo of Li Chengqian.

“Poor, poor thing!”

“Tomorrow, Li Chengqian’s bragging will be exposed. Even your parents will be implicated by you. They need to come to school to receive everyone’s ridicule and disdain.”

“It’s really a tragedy for your parents to have a child like you.” Liu Daqiang almost laughed out loud.

“We’ll just have to wait for the show tomorrow! Let’s see if you still have the face to stay by then.” Liu Daqiang left with a happy smile.

“Li Chengqian, class’s over. Let’s go!” When most of the people had left, Ding Ling came to Grade 12 Class 5. Seeing how tired he was, slumped on the table, her heart ached for him.

“Is class over?”

“Okay, let’s go. Don’t stay up late at night. Programming is very important, but your health is more important,” Ding Ling said gently. She looked at Li Chengqian with teary eyes.

She already knew that the calligraphy god who scored full marks in every subject was Li Chengqian.

In other words, by the time of the university entrance examination, Li Chengqian’s admission to Divine Dragon University was a matter of certainty.

Now, why was Li Chengqian keeping late nights desperately practicing programming. Why?

It was for her!

So that she could also get a place in Divine Dragon University.

Li Chengqian was working hard for her.

This was why Ding Ling was touched.

…

“Old Li, the parent-teacher meeting tomorrow?” In the living room, Li Tianlan and Chen Li sat opposite each other with solemn expressions.

“I’ll go!” Li Tianlan gritted his teeth.

The notice for the parent-teacher meeting clearly stated that the results of the second mock exam would be announced at the meeting tomorrow, and also the class segregation will be done as well.

Based on Li Chengqian’s past results and performance, as well as the situation they had secretly learned from the teacher, Li Chengqian being assigned to the enterprising class this time was practically a foregone conclusion.

Moreover, Li Chengqian’s exam results this time round, barring unforeseen circumstances, would still the last place in Grade 12 Class 5.

It was especially embarrassing to attend the parent-teacher meeting.

But someone had to go.

“Forget it, I’ll go.” Chen Li shook her head and continued, “I’ll go. I’m a woman. It’s harder for others to laugh at me.”

Li Tianlan was about to speak when Chen Li quickly interrupted him and continued, “Old Li, don’t pull a long face. This will put too much pressure on the child.”

“Let’s have a heart-to-heart with our son later and give him some confidence and encouragement…”

“Also, we support his participation in the Junior Informatics Programming Competition. We can let him use our computer, but not beyond 12 am. Otherwise, it will affect his studies the next day.”

The two of them kept discussing, even on their choice of words, in order to avoid hurting Li Chengqian’s self-confidence.

…

Meanwhile, in Jian Qingli’s house, which was only separated by a wall from Li Chengqian’s house.

Huang Jingjing sat beside Jian Qingli with a smile on her face.

“At the parent-teacher meeting tomorrow, the teacher will announce the results and ranking of the students!”

“Alright, this is great!” Ever since she was mocked by Chen Li on Peach Blossom Mountain, Huang Jingjing had been feeling especially uncomfortable and had been waiting for the second mock exam to end.

Originally, she just wanted Jian Qingli to find out about Li Chengqian’s results and to update her.

She didn’t expect that the school would announce the students’ results in front of all the parents.

This time, Chen Li’s family would definitely be humiliated.

“Daughter, do you know how many marks Li Chengqian actually scored? Or how many marks do you think he could score?” After suffering the loss last time, Huang Jingjing felt that she needed to clarify things first. Only then would she have the confidence to speak.

She wouldn’t want a repetition of what happened the last time, praising her daughter in front of others for obtaining the qualifications to participate in the Junior Informatics Programming Competition, only to turn around and discover that Li Chengqian had actually came in first for the test.

That would be too awkward.

Only by knowing yourself and your enemy could you win every battle.

This was a principle Huang Jingjing had learned on Peach Blossom Mountain.

“Li Chengqian’s results aren’t out yet, but based on the difficulty level of this exam and his past results, his total score shouldn’t exceed 200 marks.” Jian Qingli thought about it and gave Huang Jingjing a number.

“What about you? How many marks do you think you can score?” Huang Jingjing asked.

“The teacher has already gone through the answers with us. I estimate around 510 marks.” There was a hint of pride in Jian Qingli’s eyes.

510 marks might not seem high, but the questions for this exam were too difficult.

According to rough estimates, there were only six people in Grade 12 Class 5 who were confident of scoring 500 marks.

After asking Bi Jialiang, she was told that even in Grade 12 Class 1, there were only 13 people who were confident of scoring 500 marks.

From what she knew, her results in the second mock exam had improved to the top 50 in Tianyi High School.

In the previous exam, she was only ranked 137th in Tianyi High School. This time, she had improved greatly.

“Why did you only score 510 marks? I remember that you scored 570 points last time.” Huang Jingjing frowned.

Jian Qingli started explaining herself, and then she told her about her guesses for the ranking.

Huang Jingjing was relieved this time. Then, she began to look forward to the parent-teacher meeting the next day.

“Tomorrow, their expressions will definitely be very interesting.” Huang Jingjing smiled happily as she imagined the scene of the teacher reading the results the next day.
