Just accidentally…

When Liu Shan first heard the words from Yun Jian, she thought that the latter was going to mention some unbelievably poor grades, so she already had her lips pressed together in preparation to cackle once Yun Jian announced her result.

Yet Yun Jian said…

“I just accidentally came in first in the city”?

First in the city? First in the whole Longmen City? A result like this was prefixed with a “just”?

Liu Shan was baffled, frozen amidst her action to get a piece of meat with her chopsticks, as she was completely stunned.

“Oh my gosh! The first in the city? Yirou, your daughter came in first in the city?” Liu Shan was still in shock while a woman who was also a florist employee stood up and exclaimed at Qin Yirou in surprise.

“Yirou, you said your daughter… came in first in the city! Why haven’t we heard you mentioning it?”

“And! And! Your daughter has excellent grades, why did you let her study in the military school? Why didn’t you let your daughter apply for Di Yi Senior High School? Di Yi Senior High School in Longmen City has such a high admission score but your daughter can do it! She’s qualified! She’s the first in the city!” someone stood up to tell Qin Yirou immediately.

Di Yi Senior High School was the top public senior high school in Longmen City with a high admission score. It was also the best senior high school in Longmen City.

This was only an objective point of view. Generally, parents felt that students who graduated from Di Yi Senior High School were the most successful students.

Yun Yi was a student from Di Yi Senior High School.

The first thing that came to mind of those who were in the restaurant was that why did Yun Jian not apply for Di Yi Senior High School when her result was so good. No one noticed that Liu Shan was slowly paling in mortification.

“Jianjian wants to go to the military school and she’s quite talented, so I support her to do what she wants.” Qin Yirou chuckled behind her hand; that was her answer to everyone.

Qin Yirou kept a low profile and was humble and kind to everyone. She was nice to others and was not snobby, never boasting even when she had an outstanding daughter like this.

It was rare to see someone who could carry themselves so decently like Qin Yirou.

The women in the restaurant sighed, feeling that it was a pity for Yun Jian not to go to Di Yi Senior High School with her result.

Liu Shan who was rather ashamed looked up suddenly. That was right—even when Yun Jian came in first, she had only used to be the first in Longmen City; she was stupid to choose to attend the military school and everything was in the past now.

Liu Shan snapped her head up at Yun Jian and asked her in slight confidence, “Isn’t it foolish for a girl like you to be the last in the military school instead of furthering your studies in a top senior high school?”

What she said made Yun Jian raise a brow.

“The last?” Yun Jian arched a brow and nearly chuckled. Since when did she say that she was the weakest and came in last in the military school?

“Are you not? How could a girl like you be competing against the boys in strength during the military training? How could you win?” Liu Shan questioned with extreme confidence.

There was no need for a girl and a boy to compare who was stronger. Of course the boy would be stronger!

Just as Liu Shan finished, Yun Jian pulled out a certificate from her pocket to push it to Qin Yirou. She did not regard Liu Shan but told Qin Yirou, “Mom, I came in first in the freshmen military training and there are three people from the freshman year who get to enter the elite class. I’m one of them and the other two are my friends. The school’s given me this certificate and as a reward for coming in first, I can take the day off and leave school without any reason during classes in the future.”

Yun Jian did not even wait for the others to process what she said as she continued despite their surprise, “Right, Yun Yi represented Di Yi Senior High to join the language competition previously and got first in the province. He asked me to wait until your birthday to tell you but I’m telling you secretly right now. Don’t tell ge.”
