She smiled awkwardly and said, “That’s quite a coincidence.”

Su Mian, having just bragged about her precious daughter, felt particularly pleased and even began to see Lu Rui in a much better light.

And the woman, adhering to the principle of fighting for a bit of pride even if it doesn’t mean winning the world, struck up the conversation again, “Class 2 of Grade 12 at Shengyang High School has a dark horse who went against the stream and beat City No.1 Middle School’s top student, sitting firmly at the top of the whole city. You must know about it, right?”

“Of course, I know,” Su Mian nodded. How could her own daughter not know, when it was her own nephew who used to be the top student at City No.1 Middle School? With a feeling of secret pride, Su Mian sneakily asked, “Do you know this dark horse?”

The woman sighed and waved her hand, “How could I possibly know her? But my child is in the same class as her. Being in the same class as the city’s top student is great; everyone’s grades have gone up.”

Because Qiao Yun was so outstanding and the homeroom teacher constantly pushed the students, they felt their grades would’ve climbed up anyway.

When Su Mian heard this, she chuckled.

The woman gave her an odd look, thinking, Why are you laughing? Are you envious of my child?

Realizing her rudeness, Su Mian stopped laughing and said, “No, it’s nothing. I’m just really envious.”

FInally hearing the other woman’s envy, the woman puffed out her chest as if she was the one with a child who topped the city. She became even more vocal, “Of course, who wouldn’t be envious? But there’s nothing one can do about it; not everyone can be lucky enough to be in the same class as the city’s top student.”

“Exactly,” Su Mian’s smile was blooming.

The woman felt Su Mian’s laugh was very strange. Could it be that she was too jealous of her child’s good fortune?

Su Mian, in high spirits, asked the woman, “What do you think of this city’s top student?”

The woman praised generously, “I haven’t met her, but I’ve heard she’s very pretty. Good grades, pretty looks, she’s sure to have a bright future. If she were my child, I’d be over the moon.”

“Right,” Su Mian feigned a sigh, “Who wouldn’t want to have the city’s top student, someone who is pretty, well-behaved, considerate, smart, and adorable when she’s acting spoilt.”

Lu Rui, who had been quietly listening to Su Mian’s humblebrag, couldn’t help but twitch his lips and gave Su Mian a look, indicating she should tone it down a bit.

Su Mian paid no heed to Lu Rui. After all, it wasn’t every day she got to boast about her daughter, so she was going to brag as much as she could, hoping to let everyone know that the city’s top student was her, Su Mian’s, daughter.

“A family that can raise such a child must be very outstanding; perhaps it’s a gift passed down from previous generations. I wonder what her parents are like.” The woman asked Su Mian with curiosity, “By the way, what class is your child in?”

“Oh,” Su Mian replied nonchalantly, “Quite a coincidence, she’s also in Class 2 of Grade 12.”

The woman: “…”

Su Mian let out a deep sigh, “Her grades are alright, just a little more than the top twenty.”

The woman felt somewhat displeased when she heard this. What does it mean to be just a little more than the top twenty? That seemed to belittle her own child; surely it was said out of pride.

Feeling tricked, the woman stopped making conversation with Su Mian, waiting for the examination to finish to see for herself this daughter, who Su Mian claimed was just slightly better than the top twenty.

Su Mian didn’t care, her mood was uplifted after hearing all the praise for Qiaoqiao.

At that moment, the bell rang, marking the end of the first exam.

When Qiao Yun came out, Li Miao also happened to be walking out. Compared to Qiao Yun’s energetic appearance, she staggered out weakly. Seeing Qiao Yun, she forced a smile and said in a somewhat coquettish tone, “That was so hard.”

Qiao Yun looked at her for a moment, then reached out to pat her head.

Li Miao, having her head patted yet again, was puzzled, “Qiaoqiao, why do you always pat my head?”

Qiao Yun replied earnestly, “To comfort you.”

Li Miao murmured an “Oh” and looked dejected. She grabbed Qiao Yun’s hand and said, “Let’s go.”

“Okay.”

The two of them walked out of the school gate.

Qiao Yun’s first sight upon coming out was Li Hanzhou, simply because the man was too conspicuous, making it impossible not to notice him.

Li Miao also saw him and even exclaimed in astonishment, “Why is the Great Demon King still here? When has he ever been so nice to me? Am I dreaming?”

Qiao Yun had already walked over first.

Su Mian and Lu Rui were about to ask Qiao Yun how her exam went when they saw her walk straight to Li Hanzhou with a slight limp. She lifted her chin to meet Li Hanzhou’s gaze, and seeing that his deep, attractive eyes were filled with her own reflection moved her.

Su Mian’s face showed a spectrum of colorful expressions as if it were a beautiful painter’s palette.

Lu Rui, not understanding the situation, simply thought the two shared a deep friendship.

Qiao Yun asked softly, “You haven’t left yet?”

Li Hanzhou hummed in response, “Waiting for you to come out.”

Qiao Yun slowly blinked, the realization that someone was waiting for her made the corners of her lips twitch slightly.

Li Miao: “…” Suddenly feeling very superfluous.

Su Mian asked with a cheerful smile, “Qiaoqiao, how did the exam go? Was it difficult? Why did you come out so late?”

She had thought that given her daughter’s intelligence, Qiaoqiao would surely be the first one out.

Qiao Yun’s gaze fell on Su Mian, “It wasn’t hard, it was quite easy.”

A few parents around them heard Qiao Yun speaking so casually and couldn’t help but look at her, especially the woman who had been discussing their children with Su Mian. Upon seeing Qiao Yun’s appearance, her face showed a hint of amazement.

Su Mian cleared her throat and asked, “Are you confident about getting into Shangjing University?”

“?” Qiao Yun nodded slowly, “No problem.”

The woman snorted, muttering, “Only one subject tested and already thinking about Shangjing University, rich people are indeed blindly self-confident.”

“By the way, your child is in the same class as her,” Su Mian, holding onto Qiao Yun’s hand, couldn’t wait to introduce her belove -ve daughter to everyone, her tone full of restrained pride, “This is my daughter.”

Just then that woman’s child came out, and upon seeing the scene, she was surprised, “Mom, you know Qiao Yun’s parents?”

The woman was clueless: “Huh?”

The classmate said, “I told you about our class’s top student, Qiao Yun, that’s her.”

The woman’s face changed instantly; it turned out that she had been praising her in front of her own parents. Without waiting for her child to greet Qiao Yun, the woman quickly took her child and left in disgrace, to avoid further embarrassment.

Qiao Yun couldn’t understand what was happening and could only look to Su Mian.

Su Mian said, “It’s nothing, mom just wanted to show you off a bit.”

Qiao Yun responded, “Oh, okay then.”

Her tone was very indulgent.

Su Mian suggested, “Qiaoqiao, if you finish the next exam early, you can hand in your paper ahead of time.”

Qiao Yun wanted to be like a normal student and wait until the end of the bell to hand in her paper. Hearing Su Mian’s suggestion, she simply nodded, “Okay.”

Su Mian explained, “That way, it fits better with your status as a top student.”

Qiao Yun: “……”
