61: Chapter 61: Parent’s Signature 61: Chapter 61: Parent’s Signature For a moment, Liu Lingxiu felt that Ye Qiu still had feelings for Su Luoluo; otherwise, why would he refuse to switch seats with her? “I’m afraid the homeroom teacher might interfere. He won’t agree to me sitting with you.” Liu Lingxiu thought that made sense. After all, Li Molian had already spoken to her privately about it. But Liu Lingxiu believed that as long as it didn’t affect her studies, there was no problem sitting with Ye Qiu. Ye Qiu had already noticed that Liu Lingxiu had been jealous just now. This jealous little girl left Ye Qiu at a loss for words. At the school gate, Liu Lingxiu sat on the back rack of Ye Qiu’s bike, hugging his waist tightly. From inside, Su Luoluo, who was getting into a car, naturally saw this scene. Ye Qiu rode to Liu Lingxiu’s house, planning to leave immediately, but Liu Lingxiu’s parents invited him to stay for dinner. “Dad, Mom, my exam papers are back. S~eaʀᴄh the ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. I need your signatures, and you’ll need some time off tomorrow to attend the parent-teacher conference.” Upon hearing that Liu Lingxiu had brought home her exam papers, Liu Daqing and Zhang Yuehong hurried to wash their hands. After drying them, they asked Liu Lingxiu to bring out the papers. Although not highly educated, they could still read the characters and scores on the papers. In the past, they took turns signing Liu Lingxiu’s exam papers. The school required parents’ signatures on the exam papers, partly to ensure that parents who paid substantial tuition fees each semester knew how their children were performing academically. Liu Daqing and Zhang Yuehong carefully examined Liu Lingxiu’s exam papers and quickly noticed an improvement, especially in her English scores. They understood that this improvement was likely because Liu Lingxiu had become more vocal, improved her listening skills, and thus had better English scores. “Lingshow, you did well this time, keep it up.” Liu Daqing encouraged her. “Dad, Mom, Ye Qiu is amazing. He ranks first in the city’s joint exam and even teaches the class sometimes.” Previously skeptical about Ye Qiu’s grades, upon hearing he was teaching, Liu Daqing and Zhang Yuehong believed his grades must be genuine. “Ye Qiu, can we see your exam papers too?” Zhang Yuehong asked. Ye Qiu went to his bike basket and brought back his four exam papers. Zhang Yuehong and Liu Daqing examined them and saw full marks on all. They were at a loss for words. Initially, they thought Ye Qiu was the same as before, with a combined score of less than a hundred for all subjects. To their surprise, he had perfect scores this time. At this point, their previously prideful daughter couldn’t match Ye Qiu anymore. “Ye Qiu, which university are you aiming for? If you get into Tsinghua or Peking University, Lingshow might not make it!” Liu Daqing said. Although Liu Lingxiu was excellent, given the acceptance rates, she likely wouldn’t get into Tsinghua or Peking University. “Auntie, I’ll apply to whichever university Lingshow applies to.” Ye Qiu replied. Hearing this, Liu Lingxiu felt a wave of sweetness. Zhang Yuehong and Liu Daqing exchanged a glance, seemingly reassured. They then asked Ye Qiu to put away the exam papers and instructed him and Liu Lingxiu to wash their hands for dinner. After having lunch with Liu Lingxiu’s family, Ye Qiu informed her parents and then rode back to the congee shop. On reaching the congee shop, Ye Qiu saw it was still bustling. Seeing Ye Qiu return, Chen Fang came out and asked, “Ye Qiu, have you eaten?” “Mom, I ate at Lingshow’s house. Her parents were very welcoming.” Ye Weidong and Chen Fang didn’t know what to say upon hearing this. Ye Xue thought to herself that Liu Lingxiu’s parents must be very satisfied with Ye Qiu. “Did your joint exam results come out?” Chen Fang asked. “Yes, I’ve brought them back for you to sign.” Just as Ye Qiu finished speaking, Ye Weidong left to attend to his tasks. Given Ye Qiu’s previous poor performance, with a total score of less than a hundred for all subjects, Ye Weidong felt embarrassed to sign his papers. So, Chen Fang always signed them, and she also attended the parent-teacher conferences. Chen Fang didn’t mind much. For her, as long as her son was healthy, his performance didn’t matter. Moreover, Chen Fang now knew her son had excellent medical skills. When she asked Ye Qiu to bring over his papers, she initially thought she must have misread the scores. After several looks, she confirmed and asked, “Ye Qiu, is this real?” “Mom, I ranked first in the city’s joint exam.” Ye Qiu replied. Ye Weidong couldn’t believe it, dropping his bowl. Approaching to check, he saw perfect scores in all subjects. Other customers, upon hearing that Ye Qiu had ranked first in the city, came over to verify, and found it true. “How is this possible?” Ye Weidong asked. Although he acknowledged Ye Qiu’s medical skills, he knew academic performance wasn’t achieved overnight. So, he still viewed Ye Qiu as the same as before. Ye Qiu talking about university was beyond belief for him. “Mom, sign the papers tonight and come to the parent-teacher conference with me tomorrow afternoon.” Ye Qiu said. “Ye Qiu, I’ll sign them tonight and go with you to the conference tomorrow.” Chen Fang smiled contentedly. This time, Ye Qiu ranking first in the joint exam was akin to being a top scorer in the college entrance exam, making her proud, unlike before. Ye Xue was also very surprised. She thought any slight improvement from Ye Qiu would be great but didn’t expect such a leap. As Ye Qiu helped in the shop, Ye Xue kept feeling that her brother had changed significantly. Ye Qiu helped until around nine in the evening. Though he wanted to continue, Chen Fang said, “Ye Qiu, go rest early. The college entrance exam is most important. No need to help here.” “Mom, I’ll definitely get perfect scores again. Whether I revise or not, it doesn’t matter. I’d feel bad leaving you both overworked.” Seeing Ye Qiu say this, Chen Fang and Ye Weidong exchanged a glance, deciding to close at ten tonight. At ten, though some customers were still eating, Ye Weidong and Chen Fang prepared to close, asking Ye Xue to get ready to leave. Ye Qiu wanted his parents and sister to rest early. As Chen Fang and Ye Weidong tidied up, Ye Qiu and Ye Xue walked ahead, with Ye Xue keeping her eyes on Ye Qiu. “Sis, what are you looking at?” “You seem very different from before!”
