Chapter 514: Chapter 514 Report Card Released
This incident didn’t affect the family’s mood. Today, however, the kids were having a swimming competition in their own pool.
It was Erbao who had proposed the idea. She couldn’t control the crabs, but this was sothing she could handle. Excluding the outlier with the highest potential—Sibao, the Olympic champion, who would act as referee—and the outlier with the lowest enthusiasm—Sanbao, who didn’t feel like moving—everyone else participated, and Dabao gladly agreed.
This ti, apart from Zhang Yuxi, the rest of the family seed evenly matched.
Of course, this was just Erbao’s unilateral opinion.
As it turned out, to her great surprise, she was the one who lost in the end.
Erbao lay by the edge of the pool, questioning her entire existence.
Am I really that weak? Am I?
Unconvinced, she demanded a rematch. The result was another miserable defeat. She lay back on a lounge chair, declaring that she needed so quiet ti. However, her sadness didn’t last long. After all, losing to her own family was nothing to be ashad of.
Hearing a noise from the kitchen, she dashed over with a pitter-patter of footsteps. "Dad, what are we having for lunch today... Wow, squid!"
Lin Feng replied with a smile, "Go take a shower. I’ll have it ready in a bit."
"Okey-dokey!"
The als Lin Feng prepared were always sumptuous. As they ate, the family discussed what they should do that afternoon, while Little Treasure squeezed a toy in his stroller, snoring like a piglet in a deep sleep.
Back at school, in Class Seven where Dabao and Erbao were students, the teachers were nearly finished grading the exams. The math teacher, for instance, directly posted a JPG of the scores.
Unsurprisingly, Erbao ca in first, closely followed by Dabao.
There’s a saying that girls tend to be weaker in math, physics, and chemistry once they reach high school. Well, that statent just got a resounding slap in the face. In the face of true strength, there’s no such thing as a disadvantage. She was simply invincible.
Erbao reported the scores to Dabao, who wasn’t surprised. "I think I know which question I got wrong," he said calmly.
anwhile, in Sanbao’s Class Four, the physics scores were also released. Sanbao had scored fifteen points less than Dabao. The physics and chemistry exams had been incredibly difficult this ti. Sanbao’s performance was exceptional, yet he still hadn’t managed to surpass his older brother.
When Sanbao ntioned this, even Erbao, who attended the sa school, was shocked. When the teacher handed back the test papers, she saw that it was indeed quite difficult. Achieving such a high score was a testant to his incredible ability.
The top three students in all of Yangcheng No. 5 Middle School were all from their family.
Other scores were gradually revealed. Previously, Erbao had been first in math, but this ti, Dabao had scored full marks again. The class chat blew up, and the teacher even photographed and posted Dabao’s math and physics papers for everyone to see.
Since the siblings were in Class Seven and Class Four, the teachers of these two classes had a good relationship and discussed it in their group chat. There was no suspense about who would be in the top three for physics and math this ti.
But...
Across the entire grade, only one student had achieved a perfect score in both math and physics.
Below the announcent, everyone tagged Dabao, exclaiming their admiration. As the class monitor of Class Four, Dabao felt he should say sothing, so he simply sent back the words, "Thank you."
The horoom teacher announced in the group chat that the grading for chemistry, English, and other subjects would likely be finished that afternoon, and they would know the results then.
Upon learning that Dabao had scored full marks in both math and physics, the chemistry teacher from Class Four hurriedly searched for his paper among the remaining ones. He wanted to see Dabao’s chemistry score for himself.
"This kid..."
The teacher at the next desk was the English teacher. She knew that deductions on the essay and reading comprehension made a perfect score practically impossible. Full marks were unheard of.
Glancing over, she remarked, "Whoa, impressive!"
It turned out Dabao had also scored full marks in chemistry.
The chemistry teacher was still bewildered. He recalled that Dabao’s grades were always excellent. He consistently ranked first or second in the class, and his monthly and mock exam results always placed him within the top four of his grade. Still, scoring full marks in math, physics, and chemistry this ti was a genuine surprise. He beat Sanbao in chemistry by a full fifteen points.
This ti, so of the chemistry questions were beyond the syllabus. Most students with average-to-good grades were hovering around the passing mark, and a large portion had failed.
Now, the students were completely stunned.
This ti, Sanbao had the best Chinese score, losing only seven points total on the essay and reading comprehension. He was followed by Erbao, and then Dabao. The top English score also belonged to Sanbao, who lost only two points, with Erbao right behind him.
「By evening, the score rankings had been calculated.」
The teacher sent out ten JPG images.
First place went to Dabao.
Second place was claid by Sanbao.
In third place was Erbao.
Once again, the end-of-term exams were completely dominated by the Lin siblings. So much for math, physics, and chemistry being difficult—just look at them.
The parents and students in the group chat were filled with a mix of complicated feelings. There was no competing. How could anyone even compare?
The student in fourth place was a full one hundred and fifty-plus points behind Erbao in third, and he had already perford far beyond his usual level. It was enough to make anyone despair.
What was even more despairing was what happened next.
Dabao and Erbao, as the class monitors, tried to console everyone in the group chat.
"We’re in Sanya," Erbao typed cheerfully. "On the day we get our report cards, I’ll buy gifts for everyone!"
Everyone: "!!!!!!!!!"
This is just too hopeless!
The mont the results ca out, it was fated that the other students would have endless howork. They wanted to go out and have fun, too! All the replies were a chorus of wails, a truly pitiful sight.
Students eagerly sought their wisdom, hoping to learn how to improve their academic performance.
The siblings, however, could only reply, "We honestly don’t know!"
They felt pretty idle most days. After finishing their howork, they would just move on to other things. They only ever cramd in the week before exams. Sigh, it wasn’t that they were being selfish; they genuinely didn’t have any study hacks to share.
Over here, Sibao’s grades were also out. His results were considered very good, even for a key high school in Yangcheng. Sibao used to have so grand ambitions, but now, not so much. He just focused on doing his best, improving himself, and surpassing his own limits. Just try your best with your grades; they aren’t everything.
The next day, the siblings went out to buy gifts for their classmates, visiting the mall and other specialty streets. They returned with their hands full, carrying bags of all sizes. In the end, they shipped everything ho. It was simply too much to carry—way too much.
They had enjoyed their vacation enough. With report card day just two days away, the family decided to take the earliest flight ho the next morning.
Before they left, Lawyer Wang called.
"Mr. Lin, I’ve handled everything on this end."
"Thank you."
"You’re welco, but... the other party has begged to et with you in person. What are your thoughts?"
"et with
for what?"
"They want to apologize to you and your children face-to-face."
Lin Feng refused. "Just tell them I’ve received their apology. There’s no need for a eting."
"Alright, I will pass on your ssage. I will send you the compensation paynt and the signed docunts shortly."
"Okay. Thank you for your hard work."
