“Don’t talk, Zexin’s dad is standing up. Does he also want to speak?” Big Mouth held his breath. He was eager to hear Mr. Li’s opinion of Li Zexin since his friend feared him so much.

Li Zexin looked puzzled and wondered what his father was up to.

He nervously rubbed his hands together. He hoped he wouldn’t cause any trouble.

“Zexin’s dad has something to add. Let’s welcome him with applause.” The English teacher smiled.

Lin Wan leaned over and whispered, “Li Yanchen, you don’t really have to speak.”

Li Yanchen patted his wife’s hand.

“In the past six months, Li Zexin has indeed been serious about his studies. Not only that, but he also has begun to care a lot for his family. He is a very gentle and kind person. He used to be a bit immature and would lash out occasionally, but that wasn’t the kid’s fault. It was mine. I… neglected him. I never paid attention to what he was doing in school or in his life. Education requires the cooperation of both the family and the school. I promise I’ll pay more attention to him from now on, and I hope the other parents would do the same for their children. Thank you so much.”

“Thank you, Li Zexin’s dad, for your speech. That was very well said.” The parents applauded.

Li Zexin pouted. His father taking the fall for his behavior and admitting that he had been absent was enough to make him cry, but his classmates were watching him.

He squeezed out a smile. “See? It wasn’t me. Mr. Li admitted to it!”

Chubby Jiang put an arm around Li Zexin. “Congratulations on your success! I don’t think I’ll be that lucky. Look at my father’s face. He looks like he owes a million yuan to someone. The teacher didn’t single out students with poor grades, right? I must be the biggest underperformer in the class.”

Chubby Jiang sighed sadly.

“I don’t think they will do that. Our parents already know where we are when it comes to studies. Even if they don’t mention our name, the monthly exam scores, and rankings are always sent to the parents,” said Big Mouth.

“I hope my dad won’t give a speech.” Preserved Egg knew that his parents wouldn’t praise him. He was okay with that. He just hoped they wouldn’t criticize him in front of everyone.

Preserved Egg counted on his fingers anxiously. Finally, his father was called forward.

“Mr. Liu Min, your child has also made significant improvement this semester.

Can you share your educational methods?”

Preserved Egg’s father was taken aback. He couldn’t believe his son had made progress in his studies. He was always fifth from the bottom up. Before that, he used to be third at the bottom of the barrel.

His face burned with embarrassment. “Maybe it was Li Zexin’s influence. They are roommates. My wife and I are always busy with work, and our educational qualifications aren’t high. To be honest, we can’t even tutor him. He studies by himself. So, thank you, teachers, for guiding him.”

‘That’s it?’ Preserved Egg couldn’t believe it. He was bracing himself to be scolded in front of everyone, but his father hadn’t said anything bad about him. How could he have progressed? He wondered if the teacher had lied to his father.

Preserved Egg laughed in relief.

Big Mouth and Chubby Jiang both were nervous. From what they had seen so far, it seemed that every parent was going to speak for their child.

Whether it was because a few parents before them had set a good example, or for some other reason, all the other parents affirmed their children’s achievements, including the last-ranked Ding Fei’s mother, who said that she knew her son had made efforts.

After listening to all the parents’ speeches, the students of Class 9-3 discussed them among themselves.

“Oh my, I can’t believe that was my mom speaking! I thought she would criticize me in front of everyone for not getting into a four-star high school, but she didn’t. She said that as long as I’m healthy and happy, it’s enough.”

“Song Na, your mom spoke very sincerely.”

“Li Zexin’s mom’s speech was the best today. I really want to be friends with Sister Lin Wan. I can’t take my eyes off her.”

“Zheng Zitong, are you here to chase after celebrities?” the class monitor asked. “I really like Sister Lin Wan too. Her voice is so soft, but what she says is very meaningful. She’s really beautiful too. Even in a crowd, you can recognize her from afar.”

“I’ve been lucky enough to meet Sister Lin Wan a few times and even had a meal with her. Listening to her talk was like basking in the spring breeze,” said Chubby Jiang with a smile.

“Lucky? Not just you, but all of us. Later, when we go to the classroom, we can take a photo with Sister Lin Wan,” said Preserved Egg.

Someone slapped him on the head. Preserved Egg turned to see a furious Li Zexin facing him.

Li Zexin glared at him. “Preserved Egg, you are treating Ms. Lin like a monkey in a circus! Why do you want to take a photo with her?”

“Xinxin, why are you saying that? I treat Sister Lin Wan like a big star. Our classmates like her so much too. It would be so great to finally take a picture with her.”

“Yes, Xinxin, don’t be so sensitive. Class 9-3 is a big, loving family. We aren’t planning anything evil.”

“That’s right. We promise not to make things difficult for her if she doesn’t want to take a picture.”

“Understood.”

Indeed, every parent in the classroom made a speech. It lasted for an hour and a half..
