Chapter 23.2 – Exams

This novel is only hosted on Foxaholic, copies found elsewhere are either stolen or plagiarized.

The afternoon math and physics were joint exam papers which Su Qin had no problem with. After being tutored by several doctoral students, her thinking had been broadened. Political history was also a joint exam paper which mostly were junior high ancient history studies. After all, Su Qin was a historical dramas enthusiast hence it was no big deal.

The moment the students walked out of the campus after completing the exams, they seemed to feel relieved of a burden when they looked up and saw the blue sky.

Parents pulled their children and asked how they did in the exams. Some students were crestfallen while some were glowing with complacent.

As a large wave of students came out at once, Mo Zongyang, who was in a suit, stood on a rock and waved at Yun Fei, “Son, here, Dad is here!”

Su Qin followed Yun Fei over too, since Li Chuan was just standing behind Mo Zongyang.

Once Yun Fei reached there, Mo Zongyang hugged and kissed him on the forehead, “Son, did you do poorly in the exam? It doesn’t matter, Dad can still get you in no matter how poorly you did. Look at you, you’ve lost weight due to the exams. Let’s go, Dad will bring you to eat something good.”

Feeling disdained, Yun Fei raised his hand to wipe his forehead.

Li Chuan asked Su Qin too, “How did you do in the exams?”

Su Qin smiled at him, “The questions were slightly difficult, let’s just see the results.”

Looking at Li Chuan, Yun Fei’s eyes immediately became detachedly cold.

He didn’t know why Teacher Li was with Su-su, but he had a hunch that Teacher Li had bad intentions towards Su-su.

Since he couldn’t tell, he instinctively wanted to protect Su Qin and stood in front of Su Qin. Due to the advantage of his height, he completely shielded Su Qin behind him and blocked Li Chuan’s sight.

Grabbing him and putting his arm around his shoulder, Mo Zongyang said, “Son, come. Let me introduce to you, this is Li Chuan and you can call him Brother Chuan.”

Li Chuan spoke briefly, “Uncle Mo, we know each other.”

Mo Zongyang, who was making the introduction, was confused and turned his head in shock to ask Yun Fei, “Son, you know Brother Chuan?”

He nodded and said, “Teacher Li was the one who helped us contact the police, that’s him.”

**********

Once the assistant drove the car over, Mo Zongyang sat in the front passenger seat while Li Chuan, Su Qin and Yun Fei sat in the back.

When the car was at the bottom of the hill, Mo Zongyang looked at Su Qin through the rearview mirror and slapped his forehead with an Ah, “Are you the girl who bought a bicycle at the bicycle shop that day?”

Su Qin arched her brows at the other party, “En, hello Uncle.”

Mo Zongyang lamented that the world was too small.

But why did the world feel so big when he was looking for his wife and child previously?

Mo Zongyang brought them to a hot pot restaurant called ‘Dazhaimen’, which was decorated in an ancient-themed with a horizontal inscribed plaque on the door. The square tables, long benches and the dragon-handle pots in the store were quite unique.

This was also the first time that Su Qin was having hot pot after her rebirth.

There were five people at the table including the driver. Everyone spoke relatively little as they were engrossed with their meals and Li Chuan would occasionally help Su Qin clamped pieces of tripe.

Mo Zongyang is probably the acclaimed coddling son fanatic.

“Son, try this intestine, it’s chewy and fresh.”

“Son, try this molasses glutinous rice cake. Dad will surely order this whenever having the hot pot!”

“Son, don’t get burned. Eat slowly, eat slowly. No one is fighting with you.”

“Son, are you full? Would you like to eat some fruit-fruit?”

“Cough … “

Su Qin finally choked, isn’t it too horrifying when a big man uses the repeated syllable? It’s unimaginable when Mo Zongyang is like this at home, doesn’t Sister Qin want to kill him?

Li Chuan pulled out a piece of tissue and handed it to her with a slight frown, “Eat slowly.”

Raising his eyes, Yun Fei saw Li Chuan handing the tissue to Su Qin which reinforced the fact that Li Chuan had ill intentions towards Su Qin.

His father filled his bowl with food that he was so stuffed with and said, “I had enough, don’t give me anymore.”

Pursing his lips with instant teary-eyed, Mo Zongyang looked like a little puppy, “Son, are you annoyed with Dad?”

Yun Fei sighed, “No, you eat too.”

A smile immediately spread across the man’s face as he continued to pick food into his bowl, “Son, don’t worry about Dad. Dad is very happy to see you eat!”

Yun Fei, “ ….. “

Li Chuan could comprehend Mo Zongyang’s behavior of doting on his son. Recalling Mo Zongyang’s previous life-time and seeing him sitting and eating hot pot with his son at this moment, he felt happy for him too.

After leaving the hotpot restaurant, Li Chuan had to go pick up his bicycle from the school, hence Mo Zongyang was responsible to send Su Qin home.

When the car arrived at the old city district, Su Qin got off and Yun Fei followed too.

Mo Zongyang stuck his head out of the car window and asked him, “Son, what are you doing out of the car?”

“To send Su-su home.”

The old father, Mo Zongyang, was jealous and drew his head back inside the car as his cheeks puffed out with anger, like a fat puffer fish.

Folding his arms around his chest, he snorted and grumbled to the driver, “Old Li, you see, my son doesn’t even want to stay with his father for a moment longer once he has a little friend. There will eventually be a farewell after sending your son a thousand miles away ah.”

Driver, “ ….. “

Yun Fei sent Su Qin upstairs and followed her all the way to the door.

After Su Qin opened the door, she turned around and said to him, “Okay, I’m home. You should go back too.”

She switched on the light and the room lit up.

Yun Fei looked inside her room.

This is a small room with mottled walls. There is only a bed and a table with the kitchen utensils in the corner.

A very simple room.

Once Su Qin took off her bag and dropped the keys, the big boy grasped her short sleeve firmly and tugged it.

She raised her eyes to look at the boy, “En?”

Yun Fei whispered, “I have a big bedroom, let’s stay together, okay?”

Su Qin spoke to him in a doting tone, “Feifei, you are a big boy and I’m a girl. We can’t live together.”

Yun Fei sounded slightly aggrieved, “I take you as my wife.”

Su Qin corrected him very seriously, “Feifei, I’ve always treated you as my little brother and I’m your older sister. When we were in the mountain village, we had no choice but to playact for the villagers.”

“I was not playacting.”

In his heart, Su Qin is his wife.

Yun Fei was still tugging at her clothes with no intention of letting go.

Su Qin’s face turned cold and spoke solemnly, “Feifei, I’ll get angry if you keep doing this.”

Letting it go, Yun Fei was not in a hurry.

Just like mother said, wife is not bought but needs patience to pursue.

Three days later, Su Qin received a call from Yunzhong’s teacher while she was ironing clothes in the store.

The teacher informed her over the phone that she had passed the Yunzhong exam and she needed to bring her household register booklet, ID card as well as tuition fees to report to the student affairs office next week.

After hanging up the call, Su Qin took a deep breath and shared her joy with the lady boss, “Sister Chen, I got in.”

Chen Meixin was nibbling on an apple when she heard the good news and choked with excitement that she hugged her and cried tears of joy, “Congratulations, Qin’er, you are so sensible and smart, you deserve a better future.”

Su Qin was very happy, but felt worried again thinking of the household register booklet.

She has the ID card but no household register booklet. How should she go home and talk to her parents?
