Ji Yuanyuan held his forehead helplessly, “Didn’t you call them in the afternoon?”
Li Xu glared at her coquettishly, “In the afternoon, 1 only told them the scores. I haven’t told them the ranking.”
After hanging up the phone, Li Xu really called the Zhang family and the Li family. Zhang Kun also went over. The two of them were talking happily on the phone.
Ji Yuanyuan looked at the dishes on the table that had barely been touched and sat down on the chair helplessly.
The two of them chatted endlessly, and they were almost bragging to the heavens.
Ji Yuanyuan finished her meal and watched TV for a while. The two of them were still on the phone.
Just as Ji Yuanyuan was about to return to her room, there was a sudden knock on the door.
She quickly got up and went behind the door.
She stood on her tiptoes and looked out through the peephole.
The person standing outside was her homeroom teacher. Teacher Zhang.
Ji Yuanyuan hurriedly opened the door and said with a surprised expression, “Teacher Zhang, why are you here?”
Teacher Zhang stuck his head out to take a look and asked, “Are your parents home?”
Ji Yuanyuan quickly made way for him at the door, “Yes, Teacher. Please come in and talk.”
After saying that, Ji Yuanyuan quickly turned around and called Li Xu and Zhang Kun, “Dad, Mom, stop talking. My homeroom teacher is here.”
Li Xu and Zhang Kun raised their heads. When they saw Teacher Zhang, they quickly said to the other side of the phone, “Alright, alright. I have something to do here, so 1 won’t talk about it for now.”
After hanging up the phone, Li Xu and Zhang Kun stood up, “Teacher Zhang, why are you here? Hurry up and sit down. 1’11 pour you some tea.”
Teacher Zhang sat down on the sofa and stopped him, “There’s no need to be busy. I’ll leave after saying a few words.”
Li Xu and Zhang Kun looked at each other suspiciously and sat down on the sofa, “Teacher Zhang, please speak.”
“You should have checked Ji Yuanyuan’s college entrance examination results, right?” Teacher Zhang said.
Li Xu nodded nervously, “Yes, we did. We checked it in the afternoon. Is there a problem with the results?”
Seeing Li Xu’s nervousness, Teacher Zhang hurriedly waved his hand and said, “No, no, don’t be nervous. It’s like this. The children’s results have all been sent to me. Ji Yuanyuan did very well in her exams and is the top scorer in science in our province this year. Our school, the city, and the province will reward the top scorer. 1 hope that Ji Yuanyuan will take some time to partic.i.p.ate. In addition, a friend of mine contacted me and wanted to interview Ji Yuanyuan.”
Teacher Zhang looked at Ji Yuanyuan, “1 wanted to ask for your opinion. 1 wanted to call your home, but I couldn’t get through to your house, so I took the liberty of coming over.”
After Teacher Zhang finished speaking, Li Xu and Zhang Kun looked at Ji Yuanyuan.
Ji Yuanyuan did not hesitate, “Forget about the interview. I have nothing to share.”
Hearing this, Teacher Zhang looked a little disappointed.
After all, if Ji Yuanyuan were to be interviewed, he would definitely be one of the subjects of the interview as a teacher.
However, since Ji Yuanyuan was not willing to accept the interview, he could not force her, could he?
He stood up, “Alright, keep your phone at home open at all times. If anyone comes from the province or city, 1’11 call you at any time.”
After sending Teacher Zhang off, Li Xu said in annoyance, “You child, how could you let go of such a good publicity opportunity?”
Ji Yuanyuan slumped on the sofa with her eyes closed. She was a little suspicious, “What promotional opportunity?”
“If you accept the interview, won’t you be able to promote our shop? This is the shop opened by the mother of the science champion. Our family’s business will definitely be better than now.” Li Xu rambled on.
Ji Yuanyuan opened her eyes and gave Li Xu a thumbs up, “Mom, this is for you! You’re really born to do business. You even thought of this. You’re really amazing.”
Li Xu sighed, “Unfortunately, you rejected it.”
“Then why didn’t you remind me just now?” Ji Yuanyuan said.
“If you don’t want to do anything, can Mom force you? It’s fine. I was just saying it casually. Our family’s business is doing quite well now. I’ve paid off all my debts and saved up tens of thousands of yuan. 1’11 buy whatever you want.”
Ji Yuanyuan stepped forward and hugged Li Xu, feeling touched, “Mom, I love you so much! So, so much!”
Li Xu hugged her as well and said happily, “You’re my precious daughter. If I don’t treat you well, who else would I treat well?”
Since Ji Yuanyuan had grown up, Zhang Kun did not dare to come over and hug her. He could only watch the mother and daughter with envy.
Although Ji Yuanyuan looked calm on the surface, she was actually a little excited.
With something on her mind, she tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
It wasn’t until one o’clock in the morning that she finally managed to fall asleep.
As she fell asleep, she heard the phone ring outside in a daze.
She forced her eyes open and looked at the alarm clock on the bedside table.
It was only five o’clock in the morning. Who called so early?
Seeing that the phone in the living room rang again after it hung up automatically, Ji Yuanyuan was about to get up with her eyes glazed over.
However, before she could get up, she heard Li Xu’s voice, “Who is it?”
Seeing this, Ji Yuanyuan turned over and fell asleep again.
“Are you a liar? You’re disturbing my sleep so early in the morning. Aren’t you wicked?” In the living room, Li Xu went back to her bedroom angrily after saying this.
The couple had been excited until one or two o’clock last night before falling asleep. They were extremely sleepy now.
Back in the bedroom, Zhang Kun narrowed his eyes and asked “Who is it?”
“Liar, he said he’s a teacher from the student recruitment office. These scammers are too careless. Which teacher goes to work at five o’clock?”
Li Xu lay back on the bed and burrowed into Zhang Kun’s arms. She continued to mutter, “It must be the school that leaked our phone number.”
Zhang Kun nodded and hugged Li Xu tightly, “Sleep a little longer.”
Li Xu found a comfortable position in Zhang Kun’s arms and quickly fell asleep.
The family of three slept soundly until eleven o’clock in the morning before Ji Yuanyuan woke up.
Li Xu and Zhang Kun were already in the kitchen preparing lunch.
Ji Yuanyuan rubbed her eyes and walked towards the sofa, “Mom, can we have cold noodles for lunch?”
“Alright, then let’s eat cold noodles!” Ji Yuanyuan walked to the sofa in a daze.
A black shadow on the sofa gave her a fright, “Ah…”
Ji Zi’ang got up from the sofa, “What’s wrong? What’s wrong?”
Ji Yuanyuan covered her chest, “Why are you back?”
Ji Zi’ang was catching up on sleep on the sofa, so he woke up immediately.
“The final exams are over, so I return. I’ll bask in your light. What if there’s an interview?”
“Give up. I’ve already rejected the interview. Where’s Big Brother?” Ji Yuanyuan sat down on the sofa and yawned as she asked.
“Big Brother’s school has also finished exams, but Big Brother said their teacher is looking for him for something and can’t come back with me.” Ji Zi’ang lay back on the sofa. “Big Brother is very busy every day. Their teacher likes him and asks him for help whenever he needs it..”
