Chapter 276: Just Because He’s Not Lu Li???

Very soon.

Xie Qin stood on the podium and, following the original schedule for the parent-teacher meeting, directly projected the first question of the test paper onto the big screen beside her.

Now, everyone in the classroom could clearly see the text of the first question and the four options below it.

"Alright," Xie Qin straightened up, clapped her hands, and smiled at the people below:

"This is the first question of our test. If any of the children know the answer, you can all raise your hands to抢答. The child who answers correctly will get a candy and a little red flower. If you get it wrong, someone from the other group will continue answering. Are the rules clear?"

The children below all said in unison, "All clear."

Xie Qin paused and added, "And please, parents, do not interfere too much halfway through, or tell them the answers. Otherwise, once discovered, it will be regarded as a forfeit for the entire group, and the other group will win the game directly."

Qu Qianqian furrowed her little brows and said very seriously to Qu Si, who was next to her:

"Daddy! Did you hear that? You must not talk later! If we get treated as forfeiting, that would be bad!"

Qu Si: "..."

Zhang Yiming also shouted, "Yeah, Dad, why don’t you just take a nap first? I’ll wake you after the competition? If we’re treated as forfeiting, then we did that test paper for nothing!"

Zhang Dazhuang: "???"

What the fuck kind of thing is this for a human to do?

When Jian Xiyan heard the words "for nothing," a trace of fear flitted across his fair, delicate little face. He tilted his head, thought for a moment, and wrote:

Find something to do yourself, don’t delay my competition.

Jian Yi: "..."

On the other side, the little girl widened her big, black, bright eyes and looked pitifully at her dad:

"Daddy, you won’t talk and make me forfeit, right?"

Lu Junhan: "..."

By comparison, the atmosphere in Song Wanwan’s group was as harmonious and beautiful as ever.

Ye Wanwan patted Song Wanwan on the shoulder. "Don’t be nervous, okay?"

Song Wanwan lifted her chin a bit and curled her lips. "Don’t worry, Mom, I will definitely win this competition."

The other three little partners also told their moms and dads not to worry.

Probably afraid that later Lu Li’s group would lose too miserably and wouldn’t be able to resist asking their parents for help, Xie Qin smiled and said another sentence to completely cut off their way out:

"The parents can also supervise each other. Once any cheating is discovered and verified to be true, that group will likewise be regarded as forfeiting."

As soon as they heard that not only the teacher would be supervising, but other parents would also be catching cheaters—

Qu Qianqian instantly became super, super nervous and couldn’t help looking at her own dad.

Before she even said anything, Qu Si, being exceptionally tactful, raised both hands, his cold, indifferent eyes looking at her as he made a surrender pose and said, wanting to cry:

"Baby... baby, Daddy promises you! I won’t say a single word later! If I do, I’m a dog, okay?"

Before Jian Xiyan could write anything else infuriating,

Jian Yi directly and concisely said, "Same here."

Lu Junhan: "Mm."

Zhang Dazhuang: "Me too!"

The four little kids, seeing this, seemed as if the crisis had been averted.

They finally let out a long breath of relief.

Jian Yi: "..."

Qu Si: "..."

Lu Junhan: "..."

Zhang Dazhuang: "..."

What are you all relaxing for?!!!

The ones who should be fucking relieved are us!!!

If they ever come to another parent-teacher meeting, they’re the dogs!!

This parent-teacher meeting is pure torture for dads!

After Xie Qin finished speaking, she announced that the competition had officially begun.

As soon as she said the competition had started, Qu Qianqian eagerly raised her little hand:

"Teacher!! I know the first question, me, me, me! Let me answer!"

Seeing how slowly the kids in Song Wanwan’s group were even raising their hands, Xie Qin couldn’t help feeling irritated inside, but her face remained all smiles.

She pressed down her hand at Qu Qianqian in a calming gesture. "Qianqian, sweetie, don’t get so excited yet, the teacher hasn’t finished talking."

Qu Qianqian wrinkled her brows, a bit impatient, and said crisply:

"Teacher, why do you talk so much! Can’t we just start? I’ve been waiting for so long!"

The expression on Xie Qin’s face stiffened, but with the parents here, she couldn’t pull a long face and say anything more.

She could only force herself to keep smiling and said, "Don’t worry, the teacher will just say one or two more sentences, and then we’ll start the抢答 segment right away. For now, sit down first."

Qu Qianqian had no choice but to sit down, sulky and unhappy.

Little Lu Li saw this and gave her a piece of candy. Instantly, Qu Qianqian was happy again!

Qu Si: "..."

Since when was his daughter this easy to coax?

Just because he’s not Lu Li???

"We can see that this is the question for the first problem,"

Xie Qin pointed at the question on the projector and then said a few more pretentious lines, secretly giving Song Wanwan a meaningful look to tell her to quickly raise her hand later. After saying a few more sentences, the next second, her gaze met Song Wanwan’s, and she directly smiled and said:

"Alright, now, I’ll first ask one little friend to tell us the correct answer to this question!"

As soon as she said this, the eight children below all raised their little hands one after another.

"Teacher, I know this one!"

"Teacher, I know it too!"

...

"Teacher, pick me! Choose me!"

"Looks like everyone is very enthusiastic..."

Xie Qin looked down at them a few times, then deliberately paused as if hesitating, and then smiled at Song Wanwan and said:

"Then let’s have this group answer first. Song Wanwan, since you’re the group leader, we’ll have you answer this question."

Song Wanwan confidently stood up from her seat. For this first question, she had already eliminated B. Now she only had to choose from A, C, and D. Plus, with her godmother feeding her answers, it would be easy to pick the correct one.

Song Wanwan lifted her head and glanced at Xie Qin.

But then something awkward happened.

When she was sitting and turned around, she could clearly see Xie Qin’s face. But when she stood up, her line of sight was higher, and that huge, enormous bear on the podium directly blocked most of Xie Qin’s figure!

Even the little signals Xie Qin was secretly making, she could only see half of them.

Song Wanwan’s face instantly went pale.

She hadn’t expected her luck to be this bad. There were so many people in the classroom, and that bear didn’t block anyone else—yet it just had to block her view!

"Classmate Wanwan?" Seeing her stand there silent, Xie Qin didn’t know what had happened, and her tone inevitably carried a bit of urging. "Classmate Wanwan, which option do you choose?"

There were too many sharp-eyed parents here, so Xie Qin couldn’t blatantly show favoritism and could only speak officially:

"If you don’t know, I’ll have to treat it as you giving up this answer..."

"I know! I know it!"

Hearing this, Song Wanwan panicked. She frantically tried to recall which of A, C, or D that half-seen gesture had actually been.

Meanwhile, the other little kids in her group all wore odd expressions.

Which option to choose? Hadn’t Song Wanwan already written it down on the test just now?

Why did she still need this long to think?

Not long after, they heard Song Wanwan hesitantly say, dragging it out, "It should... it should be C."

"..."
