Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

Niu Chunsheng, hearing this, couldn't help but be stunned.

If his own daughter could settle her mind and study properly, then even if she couldn't test into some good university in the future, as long as she peacefully finished high school and got her high school diploma, that would count as a fairly acceptable outcome.

Actually, he didn't want his daughter to be talking love at such a young age either, let alone getting involved in marriage, but there was truly no other way, which was why he resorted to this measure and had her try to get in touch with Wang Xiaohua.

After all, if his daughter dated other men, he definitely wouldn't be at ease, but with Wang Xiaohua it was different — at least he knew Wang Xiaohua inside and out, and Wang Xiaohua's ceiling was much higher than ordinary people's.

So Niu Chunsheng said:

"If you really want to continue going to school, it's not impossible, but you have to study properly, you can't start studying and then halfway through decide you don't want to go anymore."

Niu Lin Xin, hearing her father say such words, hurriedly nodded in guarantee:

"Dad, rest assured, this time I will definitely grit my teeth and persist, no matter what, I must get my high school diploma!"

Before, Niu Chunsheng still wondered if this daughter could test into a better university, but now he no longer hoped for that; as long as his daughter could get her high school diploma, that was enough.

After getting the high school diploma, she could just go to some private university, get the degree in hand, and then see how to arrange things later.

What he feared most was her not even having a high school diploma — then even if he wanted to arrange things later, there would be no way to start.

However, at this moment, Lin Xiaofang, holding the child, said to Niu Lin Xin:

"Don't lie to your dad, a dog can't change its habit of eating shit; with your dead-set personality, if you can persist in school for a month, that's already burning high incense. Don't let us pay private high school tuition only for you to stop going after a few days — wouldn't that be wasting money for nothing?"

Lin Xiaofang's thinking was very simple: since this daughter wasn't cut out for studying, don't force her; either hurry up and marry her off, or have her go help at her dad's company.

As for the daughter's private high school tuition, it would be better to save it for the son — after all, raising this son, there will be plenty of places needing money in the future!

Lin Xiaofang's thinking was very cruel, but also very realistic.

Before, there was only Niu Lin Xin this one only daughter, so naturally all the best resources were poured onto Niu Lin Xin; now that the son was born, they couldn't let this daughter be so willful anymore, everything had to be carefully considered.

Besides, they had already poured so much money into cultivating Niu Lin Xin before, yet still failed to cultivate her; continuing to pour money down, there was a high probability it would go down the drain.

After all, it's easy to change the landscape but hard to change one's nature; Niu Lin Xin couldn't possibly transform in a short time.

In other words, Lin Xiaofang had already completely given up on this daughter Niu Lin Xin.

So when Niu Lin Xin said she wanted to go to private high school, her first reaction was that it would waste money.

Niu Chunsheng, however, still doted on Niu Lin Xin more; hearing Lin Xiaofang say these words that hurt self-esteem, he couldn't help but reproach:

"What are you saying these things for in front of the child? She wants to go to private high school, then let her go; it's rare she has this enterprising spirit."

Lin Xiaofang, however, said:

"This is enterprising spirit? She just wants to go to private high school to keep playing; can normal people go to private high school? They're all not cut out for studying, not much different from vocational high schools really; the only difference is the tuition is dead expensive!"

Niu Chunsheng sighed, momentarily at a loss for words.

Because he couldn't deny what Lin Xiaofang said.

Many private high schools really aren't much different from vocational high schools, management is very loose, there's simply no study atmosphere, and the tuition is dead expensive on top of that.

"Dad, just let me go to school, find a strictly managed school, this time I will definitely study hard!"

Niu Lin Xin couldn't help but shed tears.

Hearing her mother say these unpleasant words, her heart was cut like by a knife.

At the same time, a breath of anger was pent up in her heart.

Her mother looked down on her this much, so she was determined to prove herself to her mother.

She was not a useless person!

Niu Chunsheng then said:

"Alright then, I'll go find you a private high school later, but I'll say the ugly words upfront: if you drop out halfway again, from now on I really won't care about you anymore."

Right now it was almost September and the new semester starting, so to let Niu Lin Xin go to school, they had to hurry and find connections.

So Niu Chunsheng immediately took out his mobile phone, opened his contact list, and inquired everywhere, looking for any private school that was very strictly managed — the stricter the better — he wanted to send his daughter to that kind of school; if it was too loose, he would be even less at ease.

After inquiring, lo and behold, he actually found one.

In the city there was a specialized repeat-exam school, fully closed military-style management; stuff Niu Lin Xin in there, regardless of whether she studied or not, as long as it could discipline her temperament, that was fine.

But the other side said they only recruited Senior Year Three repeat students, while her daughter had dropped out in the second semester of Senior Year Two — in other words, she hadn't even attended Senior Year Three yet, so she didn't meet the conditions.

What to do now?

Use money to grease the wheels!

And at this time, on the other side.

Wang Xiaohua and Wang Erhai arrived at Zhang Yueran's house.

Tonight the two brothers didn't plan to return to Shangou Village.

Tomorrow early morning Wang Erhai would go back.

And Wang Xiaohua would have Zhu Jiajun come pick him up here tomorrow morning, then continue going to practice Subject Three.

After taking turns showering in the evening, Zhang Yueran tidied up the side bedroom for Wang Xiaohua to sleep in.

She and Wang Erhai slept in the master bedroom.

Wang Xiaohua lay in the room, not falling asleep immediately.

Faint sounds of Second Brother and Sister-in-law came from the master bedroom.

He knew — it was Second Brother and Sister-in-law making a baby.

Sister-in-law had long said she had already started pregnancy preparation recently.

Wang Xiaohua, listening to those sounds, couldn't help but feel a bit irritable.

He turned around, picked up his mobile phone to look at it, shifting his attention.

At this moment he discovered that Zhou Jiayi had actually sent him several WeChat messages half an hour earlier.

"Top Scorer Brother, have you gotten home?"

"Top Scorer Brother, there's something I want to ask you for help with."

"Message recalled."

Wang Xiaohua looked at that recalled message, falling into deep thought.

What on earth does Zhou Jiayi want me to help with?

Recalling it means she doesn't need my help anymore?

Or what does it mean?

Wang Xiaohua then typed a reply:

"What do you want me to help you with?"

After a while, Zhou Jiayi replied:

"Nothing anymore, no need haha."

Wang Xiaohua replied:

"Mm-hmm."

Then on Zhou Jiayi's side it kept showing "typing", but after a long time no message was sent.

Wang Xiaohua was somewhat speechless about this, and also didn't know what Zhou Jiayi was doing.

Right at this moment, Wang Xiaohua's WeChat received another message.

However it wasn't sent by Zhou Jiayi, but by his counselor Gu Wenqing.

"Student Wang Xiaohua, the holiday has passed in a flash, there's about half a month left before the start of school, may I ask if you can return to school a few days early? The school newspaper has issued an invitation, wanting to do a pre-school interview with you, to inspire this year's newly enrolled freshmen."

Wang Xiaohua saw this message, somewhat surprised.

In previous years, the school newspaper's start-of-school interviews weren't all with seniors who were extremely top-tier academically?

He, Wang Xiaohua, in the class, counts as mediocre, let alone looking at the whole school.

What virtue and ability does he have?
