Before he died, my grandfather forced me to marry the richest man in the capital.
Chapter 686 This is called one thing subduing another.
The next day, at the Ji Residence Restaurant.
A man eating breakfast kept glancing at his son, who was smiling as he ate. He smiled back, put down his chopsticks, took a tissue, and slowly wiped his mouth. Raising an eyebrow, he asked, "Should your mother and I go on a trip beforehand?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Jiale looked up and met her father's ambiguous smile. As if she understood, she smiled faintly, a genuine and firm refusal, "No need."
Going too fast might scare her.
Tang Junyao didn't interrupt. Her gaze darted between the father and son, searching for clues. Seeing the smiles on their faces, she seemed to understand after a few seconds and smiled as well. "Well, there's nothing wrong with going on a trip sooner, but your godmother needs to have time. Otherwise, she won't have enough fun and will start complaining. It's your godfather who will suffer."
Ji Xinyu laughed, "Only Auntie can handle Uncle Lu, she can completely subdue him. Are Uncle and Aunt Guoguo going this year?"
Ji Hancheng leaned back lazily in his chair, glancing sideways at his son, which was tantamount to admitting it. In answering his daughter's first question, he completely forgot that he himself had been completely subdued, and said with a disdainful tone, "That's called one thing subduing another."
Ji Jiale and Ji Xinyu thought to themselves: Aren't you the same? What's the difference? You're still completely subdued by your mother.
The man had no idea what his son and daughter were thinking. He even praised his son in his heart, saying that he was not bad and did not become a ninja god like Su Yu. He was indeed his son.
Ji Hancheng completely forgot that he had waited for two years without making a single move and had even been scolded by his grandfather for leaking electricity.
Seeing her son and daughter eating with their heads down, Tang Junyao knew what the two children were thinking and couldn't help but chuckle. She answered her daughter's second question, "Your Aunt Guoguo and Uncle's family won't be going this year. It's a foregone conclusion that Cancan won't get into university this year. Your Aunt Guoguo and her whole family are going to help Cancan work hard so that his score will soar to 650 next year when he retakes the college entrance exam. This is the score that your Uncle Yu set. Your aunt wants to go, but only your uncle can control Xiaochen. If your uncle can't go, your aunt doesn't want to go either."
"Okay, Uncle Yu, this score is a bit too high. 250 to 650 is a big jump. If we want to reach this score, Can Can will definitely have to study late into the night and hang herself from the ceiling."
Ji Xinyu imagined Su Can studying late into the night, even hanging himself by his hair to stay awake. It was a bit pitiful; with such a large gap in scores, he must have been working so hard that he started to doubt his own existence.
Back then, she and Hanhan would always discuss the questions until the early hours of the morning in order to achieve a score of 660. It was very hard work. They would get up early to study as soon as the sky began to lighten. They could be said to have memorized the Chinese and history textbooks perfectly. They would take turns answering questions to improve their memory.
A few minutes later, Ji Jiale finished his breakfast and gently put down his chopsticks. Some people have a sense of dignity ingrained in their bones, and Ji Jiale was such a person. His distance concealed politeness and good upbringing. "Mom, don't rush. You and Dad can go on a trip if you want."
Ji Hancheng smiled slightly. He knew his son wasn't joking. After a period of training, the brat could indeed manage the company on his own for a few days. He had no doubt about that. "Yaoyao, I'll listen to you."
Tang Junyao knew that her son was not an impatient or impulsive person, so she naturally knew that it was too early to go on a trip at this time. "Let's wait a bit longer. I'm quite busy lately. Let's wait a while. I'll ask Xiaoxue then."
Every year, the Ji family, Han family, Su family, and Lu family would organize a trip together, and Ji Hancheng would cover all the expenses.
As for why the Yan family was excluded, it was mainly because Yan Zhun was obsessed with surgery, and Feng Xiaoni was too busy to keep up.
Ji Xinyu: "I've already booked the dates for our next trip. It'll be during the National Day holiday. Let's go together then, bro."
"Well, we'll see, it depends on the situation."
"Don't rush to refuse. What if Hanhan comes back by then? We can go together. Let's invite Sister Yueyue and Aunt Feifei. I think it would be fun to go with Aunt Feifei. She's really professional."
Ji Hancheng let out a snort, "She's been traveling for so many years, her mind is always on this, how could she not be professional?"
Tang Junyao glared at the man: "So you've taken off, huh?" Her words were getting increasingly absurd.
The day of the college entrance examination is fast approaching, and uniformed personnel can be seen everywhere reminding people not to honk their horns.
All sorts of luxury cars were parked in front of the Imperial Capital Middle School, and grandparents, parents and other relatives were standing at the school gate. Some children were treated like treasures at home, and all their relatives came to accompany them to the exam.
The scene was exceptionally spectacular. Parents at the school gate craned their necks, eagerly awaiting their children to emerge. Everyone hoped that their child would be the first to come out, and that the children's early exit was due to the ease of the questions.
In a corner of the crowd, a few people wearing masks craned their necks to look towards the school gate, their eyes filled with worry. "It's almost time, several people have already come out. Can Can probably not do the questions."
A soft, sweet voice came from Lan Yunxi, who was wearing a baseball cap and a black mask. "Auntie, it's not necessarily true. Maybe Cancan just wants to check again."
Although Su's mother felt that what Lan Yunxi said was unrealistic, it was still comforting to hear. "Your words always touch people's hearts. I hope so. If he can't meet his father's requirements, he'll probably be finished again."
In contrast, Guoguo was much calmer. "Whether or not I can get the score my husband requires, I have to go through this senior year of high school. There's no way to change it now. Unless Cancan gets possessed by something and becomes the top scorer in the college entrance exam, the words 'senior year of high school' are stuck to her."
The Han couple: "............"
Fifteen minutes later, a group of children in school uniforms came out of the school gate, all asking the same question: "How did the test go? Were the questions easy?"
Whether it was grandparents, parents, or other relatives, they were all bowing their heads and asking the child questions, while others were patting the child's head to encourage them.
After Su Can came out, he looked around for his target and found several people wearing masks in a corner. He quickly walked towards the corner.
"Why are you all here? Didn't I say we didn't need to be so formal?"
Su Can: Is it really necessary to take the college entrance exam? It's not a big deal. Besides, there's always next year.
Seeing that her son didn't seem stressed at all, Guoguo wondered if the questions were easy or if he had already given up. She guessed it was the former, as the latter was unlikely. "I just saw that everyone else came to accompany their sons to the exam, and I was afraid you would be envious. Let's go and I'll take you to eat something delicious."
Needless to say, my son probably doesn't have much gas left to refuel.
Both Han's parents glanced at their grandson, sensing something was wrong. Han's mother comforted him, "Just forget about each exam after you finish it. Don't dwell on it. Good luck this afternoon."
Su Can hadn't taken it to heart. She was going to repeat a year anyway, so why bother thinking about it and wasting her brain cells? She replied sweetly, "Grandma, I think I did pretty well on the exam."
Before Su's mother could ask, Han's father asked curiously, "So, you still have a chance to get a high score?"
Lan Yunxi: A reversal? Am I really possessed by the God of Exams?
After a few seconds of contemplation, Su Can put his arm around Han Guoguo's shoulder and said, "Grandma, Grandpa, you don't need to come this afternoon. With so many of you around, I feel a lot of pressure. I could have scored 20 more points, but the thought of so many of you outside makes me feel so overwhelmed that I might hesitate to write."
Han's mother didn't believe her grandson could score 20 more points. "Hmm."
Since Dijing Middle School was designated as a college entrance examination site, the entire grade level was on holiday. Han's mother was worried about her grandson at home and felt more at ease keeping an eye on him. She didn't need to worry about Nuonuo, but she was afraid that Xiaochen would try to trick Nuonuo into playing games on his phone.
Su Can, looking confident, patted his mother Guo Guo's shoulder and said, "Grandpa, I can't guarantee a 100% high score, but I'll do my best to get it."
After the college entrance examination, Su Yu gave his child a five-day break before starting the review phase, with Su Yu personally assigning homework.
That evening, at the Su family home.
At the dinner table, Su Yu suddenly asked Su Can, "The college entrance exam is over, calculate how many points you got."
Su Can, who was enjoying her meal, lost her appetite when she was suddenly asked this question. However, she couldn't not answer. Since she had to answer, she decided to give a rough answer. Besides, her grandmother said that she should just forget about each exam as it was taken. There was no time to calculate the scores, and she would forget the questions after the exam.
Su Can swallowed the rice in his mouth and replied, "Hmm, about 450, that's about right."
Su Yu paused, his hand holding the chopsticks still, seemingly incredulous at the number. "Are you sure?"
When Han Guoguo heard her son say 450, she felt that he had made a lot of progress and should be encouraged. She interrupted, "That's a lot? That's good progress, not bad at all."
Mr. Su glanced at his grandson while holding his bowl, remaining silent. He had reservations about the number and found it difficult to comment.
Su Yu couldn't help but remind her, "Guoguo, the total score won't be out for another 10 days or so. Don't trust his estimate so much."
"Ah, oh, it seems so. But since Can Can is so confident, I think the total score should be close to this, right Can Can?" Han Guoguo asked her son again.
Su Can was too lazy to continue the conversation and replied perfunctorily, "Yeah, more or less."
A few days later, Su Bi took the high school entrance exam. Su Yu asked her the same question, and Su Bi's answer was much more certain. She gave Su Yu a number directly, saying that the difference was at most 5 points, and that she was not very sure about one question.
On the day the scores were released, Su Yu brought the computer to the living room. The whole family held their breath, staring intently at the computer screen. The Han family was also waiting for the results to be announced.
Su Yu slightly opened his legs and nimbly entered his son's examination admission ticket number. Soon, Su Can's scores for each subject appeared on the screen, with a total score of 345 points written shyly at the bottom.
This number is unusually conspicuous and glaring.
Looking at the number, Su Yu felt a pang in his heart. He turned the laptop around with one hand, pointing the screen at Su Can so he could see for himself. He pinched his temples, took a deep breath, and said, "What happened to the 450? Isn't your estimate a bit too far off?"
They simply eliminated the 100-point estimate.
Han Guoguo: "........."
The Su couple: "............." Wasn't it supposed to be 450? Even if it wasn't 450, the difference shouldn't be 100.
The difference is quite large.
Su Can also felt a little embarrassed, staring incredulously at the total score on the computer screen. He was usually very fast at answering questions, so how come he only got this much? "Well, maybe my handwriting is too bad. The answers are definitely standard answers. Maybe the teacher's eyes got tired from correcting so many."
Su Yu laughed in anger, "The teacher only has a grudge against you. How come out of so many test takers across the country, only you got it wrong?"
Fearing her son would beat her grandson, Su's mother advised, "Oh well, it's okay if you're a hundred points short. Keep trying next year. Can Can, you can't be a hundred points short next year. You have to do what your father says. Not even one point short is acceptable, do you hear me?"
After saying that, Su's mother winked, as if to say, "If you don't agree, you're finished today."
Su Yu rubbed his temples; his mother's protective gesture was all too obvious.
Su Can nodded, "I understand, I'll work harder next year."
Finally, Han Guoguo sent the results to her mother. Her mother had expected this result and was not surprised. She just reminded Guoguo not to interfere with her son-in-law's discipline.
