Chapter 234: Chapter 234: A Narrow Encounter at the School Gates
Yue Qingqing looked at her uncle with rare admiration, no wonder they say that school and the army can change a person.
Yue Jiannan looked nothing like his former self.
Even his aura had changed significantly, having acquired a scholarly air.
If he could maintain this state, he might have great hope for the upcoming exam.
Yue Jiannan finished his meal in a loud voice, took a gulp of soup, patted his stomach, and let out a long sigh.
“Delicious! Refreshing!”
Lin Chunju watched him eat like Zhu Bajie devouring ginseng fruit, and knew that Jiannan had definitely not wasted his time at school.
It seemed that although she made the wrong connection at first, it had brought about a great change in Jiannan’s life.
She didn’t want to pressure Jiannan by asking about his grades, but he proudly volunteered the information himself.
“Mom, go look at the honor roll later, my name really stands out, I’m sixth in the whole school, even higher than that Song senior.”
Seeing him so cocky, Lin Chunju for once didn’t say anything to burst his bubble.
“Well done, keep up the good work, I’m waiting for your good news.”
“Just you watch!”
Just then, the takeout food arrived, and Yue Jiannan hurriedly got up to receive it.
“If there’s nothing else, I’ll head to class now, I still have two sets of papers to do.”
Lin Chunju said with amusement, “You really don’t waste a single minute, do you?”
She had thought about having a good conversation with her son whom she hadn’t seen for a long time.
But seeing him now, she decided to save the talks until after the exams were over, in over a month.
Yue Jiannan felt a bit embarrassed, and, holding the food in one hand, he took Qingqing towards the school gate with the other.
“Little genius, have you been studying hard recently?”
Last time the kid was in his class, she had made quite an impact on her classmates.
Yue Qingqing nodded, “I know lots of words now.”
“That’s wonderful.” Jiannan said to Chunju, “When the household registration comes through later, we should get Qingqing to school early, and not delay her education.”
Lin Chunju rolled her eyes at him, “Do I need you to tell me that?”
Who was it that cried and made excuses whenever school was mentioned, either a stomachache or a dizzy head?
Jiannan scratched his cheek, pretending nothing was wrong.

The three of them reached the school gate happily.
At that moment, Song Qiming and Yu Yaxian happened to walk by as well.
Yaxian was flanked by several friends, chattering and laughing as they joked about the couple.
Yaxian had a proper smile, but Qiming’s expression was a bit strained.
Ever since the last exam setback, his mood hadn’t been good, and his face had been gloomy for days.
Even the teachers advised him that wins and losses are common in the military life and encouraged him to buck up and continue reviewing for the upcoming tests.
But Song Qiming couldn’t do it.
Every time he thought of that man’s name above his own, he felt as though he was wearing a heavy crown, frustration simmering in his heart.
This also made his time with Yaxian much less enjoyable.
He was always worried that after Yaxian saw that man’s grades, she might regret her choices.
Yaxian, being smart, had figured out Qiming’s thoughts and was even more careful around him.
After all, Qiming’s worth wasn’t solely in his grades, but also in the Song Family’s wealth and the city household registration.
So today, taking the opportunity of her birthday, she invited a few friends to take leave and planned to have a meal at a fancy restaurant.
Anyways, it was the sprint stage now, and the teachers did not require everyone to stay in the classroom to study.
Yaxian hoped that the lively atmosphere could cheer up Qiming.
Who would have thought that they would bump into each other right at the school gate.
Yaxian instinctively stepped back, feeling guilty.
But the next second, she caught herself and immediately latched onto Qiming’s arm, casting a defiant glance at Jiannan and Chunju.
Chunju wanted to see how Jiannan would react.
But Jiannan didn’t care about the two of them at all, walking past them with his eyes straight ahead, not even giving them a glance.
It would be a waste of time.
Yaxian sighed in relief, but Song Qiming felt his temper flare upon seeing this.
He stepped out of line and actually blocked Jiannan’s path.
