Principal Chen’s eyes lit up as he looked at Chen Meng’er, as if he had seen a treasure. “Meng’er, tell me, how did you know how to do all this?”

“My brother, Haoguo, taught me all this.” Chen Meng’er had already started preparing for the day in order to successfully enter primary school together with her second brother, Chen Haoxuan. And she had prepared for such a long time, all for today.

“Oh, is that so?” Principal Chen asked Chen Meng’er, but his gaze turned to Chen Ping. He was obviously trying to get the result he wanted from Chen Ping.

Chen Meng’er saw Principal Chen’s intention, so she wasn’t in a hurry to answer. Instead, she turned her gaze to her father, Chen Ping, who had gone off somewhere.

Chen Ping felt the gaze on him and came back to his senses. “Ah.”

“Meng’er said that she learned all this from her brother, Haoguo,” Principal Chen repeated.

“Ah, right. When summer vacation started this year, Meng’er pestered her brother and asked him to teach her how to read.” Chen Ping only knew that his eldest son would hold a book in his hands every day and teach his younger daughter how to read. But as for the specifics, he had no idea what his eldest son taught and what his younger daughter learned.

“So that’s how it is.” Headmaster Chen muttered softly, but his heart was not calm at all. He was excited now, the excitement of discovering a treasure.

One had to know that headmaster Chen had taught all his life, and he had practically devoted his entire life to the cause of education. Now, a genius was standing in front of him. Now, whenever he thought about how this genius had become a genius under his education, and how he had learned to serve his country, how could he not be excited.

Chen Meng’er looked at Principal Chen who was so excited but did not seem like he was going to give her an answer. She could not help but feel nervous in her heart.

Chen Meng’er wanted to ask Principal Chen if he would agree to let her enter the school. But she was afraid that she would leave a bad impression on Principal Chen the moment she opened her mouth, and all her efforts would be in vain. So, she could only endure it.

Fortunately, Principal Chen didn’t let Chen Meng’er wait for too long. Just as Chen Meng’er was about to lose her patience, he finally opened her mouth and said, “Meng’er, I promised you that I wouldn’t go back on my word. I agree. I’ll make an exception and let you and your brother, Haoxuan, enter the first grade of primary school together.”

When Chen Meng’er heard Principal Chen’s words, the faint dimples on her face instantly sank. At the same time that Chen Meng’er heaved a sigh of relief, there was a faint excitement in her heart. Her current life was progressing little by little towards the life that she planned out. “Thank you, thank you, Grandpa Chen.”

When Chen Ping carried Chen Meng’er out of Principal Chen’s house, he still had a look of disbelief on his face. He felt that what he had seen and heard just now was actually what he had dreamed of, and not reality.

However, why did he feel that this dream was too realistic?

Chen Meng’er looked at her father’s silly look from the moment he heard the results. She was a little worried in her heart. Her father had not been provoked and had become silly.

“Daughter, did your grandfather Chen agree to let you go to school just now?” The first thing Chen Ping did when he came back to his senses was to ask his daughter, Chen Meng’er, if he had misheard before, or if he was dreaming.

“Dad, didn’t you hear it just now? Grandfather Chen said that he agreed to make an exception and let me go to the first grade.” Chen Meng’er looked at her father, Chen Ping, as if something had happened.

Chen Ping was a little embarrassed by his daughter’s look. He pretended to cough and said, “I did hear it.. I just thought it was a little unbelievable.”
