Huang Jingjing was not someone who could be taken advantage of.
How could she take it lying down after being mocked by Chen Li?
She suppressed the anger in her heart.
âChen Li, your sonâs luck in finding things is really amazing! Heâs indeed impressive. I canât help but admire him.â
Huang Jingjing changed the topic and said with a look of pity on her face, âItâs just that he isnât very lucky in his studies. The school now wants to segregate classes based on the second joint mock exam.â
âEveryone knows your sonâs results. He will definitely be assigned to the Progressive class. Moreover, I heard that the principal is the one who made the policy this time. Heâs impartial. Itâs useless no matter who goes to plead with him.â
âWhat a pity, what a pity!â
âI heard from Qingli that your son has been studying quite seriously recently. After he has changed class and a new environment, with the new teachers, especially considering that he would be going to a class with all the lousy students, I wonder if your son would still be so serious. Itâs really worrying,â Huang Jingjing said hypocritically. She was obviously gloating.
Immediately, the smile on Chen Liâs face froze. She looked at Huang Jingjing angrily.
It wasnât because of Li Chengqianâs results. When Li Chengqian came back the day before, he had already told them about the results. After a round of discussion, they both felt that Li Chengqian didnât seem to be lying.
She was angry because Huang Jingjing had called her the day before in all seriousness, pretending to be informing her of the class segregation. She had asked Chen Li to find someone to intercede and keep Li Chengqian in Grade 12 Class 5.
What Huang Jingjing said just now was very clear. She knew that it was useless to find someone to intercede!
Huang Jingjing acted as if she didnât notice Chen Liâs anger. She continued with a smug smile, âChen Li, I have another piece of good news for you. Qingli has obtained an opportunity to participate in the Junior Informatics Programming Competition. Tianyi High School is only sending two teams.â
âThe teachers said that Qingliâs team stands a chance of emerging in the top 50 in the country.â
âDo you know what it means to be in the top 50? You can have direct admission to Divine Dragon University without having to take the test!â Huang Jingjing was getting more and more proud, acting as if Jian Qingli had already obtained the admission ticket to Divine Dragon University without having to take the test.
Chen Liâs face became more and more sour. Even Li Tianlan, who had been standing at the side without saying a word, was getting visibly upset.
âThis woman is quite good at talking.â Even Huang Daliang, who was focused on cooking, stepped back and sighed.
Li Chengqian narrowed his eyes and looked coldly at Huang Jingjing. This womanâs words are simply venomous!
She had been attacking Chen Li, starting with the ingredients, then his results, and right after that it was about Jian Qingli participating in the Junior Informatics Programming Competition. Every issue she raised was aimed at displaying her sense of superiority.
It could even be said that Huang Jingjingâs sense of superiority was built on Li Chengqianâs family.
âNo wonder in my previous life, my father was so angry that he fell and broke his leg.â In his previous life, he had stuck by Jian Qingliâs side, and he had no idea how much his parents had been mocked.
Moreover, he was certain that his parents had suffered more ridicule in his previous life than this one.
This time, he got the best ingredients, so Huang Jingjing didnât dare to talk about the ingredients later.
This time, he had obtained a spot in the Junior Informatics Programming Competition, which he hadnât in his previous life!
Just as Li Chengqian was about to speak, Ding Ling, who was standing at the side, couldnât help but say, âAuntie, actually, Li Chengqian is also participating in the Junior Informatics Programming Competition.â
âHeâs still the captain. Iâm his teammate!â
âJian Qingli and I are not in the same team. Her captain is called Bi Jialiang!â
âPreviously, in order to select the participants, the school organized an examination.â
âLi Chengqian represented our team in the exam. He got first place, 100 marks!â
âBi Jialiang came in second, 58 marks!â
âJian Qingli knows this best. If you donât believe me, ask her.â
Instantly, the smile on Huang Jingjingâs face froze.
At this moment, Jian Qingli, who had gone out to take photos, happened to return. When she saw her motherâs stiff expression, she asked in confusion, âMom, whatâs wrong? Why do you look so pale? Are you feeling unwell?â
âWhy didnât you tell me that Li Chengqian is also participating in the Junior Informatics Programming Competition?â Jian Qingli had told her that she was participating in this competition, but she didnât say a word about anything related to Li Chengqian.
âYou didnât ask me!â Jian Qingli replied in confusion. Then, she thought of what Huang Jingjing usually did and seemed to have figured out what was going on.
She knew her mother too well. She loved to show off, compare, and find a sense of superiority.
Instantly, she understood what had just happened.
Then, her face turned as red as a monkeyâs butt.
At this moment, Chen Li asked Li Chengqian, âSon, why didnât you tell us about your participation in the Junior Informatics Programming Competition?â
âMom, actually I donât think itâs important at all. Itâs not something worth showing off, so I didnât tell you.â Li Chengqian said calmly.
Even someone as thick-skinned as Huang Jingjing couldnât hold it in anymore. Her face and ears turned red, and she wished the earth could swallow her up.
Thanks to Bi Jialiang, Jian Qingli was qualified to participate in the Junior Informatics Programming Competition. Huang Jingjing wanted to tell everyone in the world and win their praises.
As for how Li Chengqian did it, how he obtained first place in the school exam, he didnât breathe a word to anyone.
In comparison, Huang Jingjing felt even more embarrassed.
Then, she pulled Jian Qingli and left without saying a word.
âSon, this is so satisfying! Iâve never seen your Auntie Huang look so upset.â Chen Li was all smiles. Huang Jingjing had been irritating her for three years. This time, she could finally hold her head high.
She felt the gloom accumulated in her heart was swept away, and she instantly felt refreshed!
âMom, I said before that I would make you proud. Did you think I said that for fun?â Li Chengqian laughed.
âHey, kid, I just said youâre fat, and youâre already panting!â Li Tianlan scolded with a smile.
...
On the way back, Jian Qingli looked at Huang Jingjing, who was visibly upset, and asked carefully, âMom, were you showing off in front of Aunt Chen that I participated in the Junior Informatics Programming Competition?â
âWhatâs wrong with you, child? How could you set me up like this? Why didnât you tell me that Li Chengqian had also qualified to participate in the Junior Informatics Programming Competition?â Huang Jingjing said angrily. Jian Qingli was a sabotager. If she had known that Li Chengqian had also qualified to participate in the competition, she definitely wouldnât have broached this topic.
...
âYou didnât ask me!â Jian Qingli rolled her eyes at Huang Jingjing and defended herself.
âMoreover, Bi Jialiang said that Li Chengqianâs theoretical results are indeed very good, but his practical hands-on experience is nil.â
âFurthermore, Li Chengqian isnât studying properly. Recently, heâs been playing computer games every day. He wonât gain anything from the Junior Informatics Programming Competition.â
âBi Jialiangâs judgment is that Li Chengqian will be eliminated in the preliminary round. Heâs destined to be eliminated. Why should I tell you!â Jian Qingli said unhappily.
âIs that so?â After Huang Jingjing heard this, she thought for a moment and told Jian Qingli, âQingli, when your preliminary exams are over, you must tell me Li Chengqianâs results!â
âAlso, arenât you guys going to take the second provincial joint mock exam next week? After the results are out, ask around about Li Chengqianâs results and then update me.â
âLi Chengqianâs grades are so bad, he will definitely be assigned to the Progressive class. Why are you asking about his grades!â Jian Qingli said in confusion.
âDonât worry about what Iâm using it for. Just help me find out when the time comes.â In fact, Huang Jingjing couldnât take this lying down at all.
When the results of the second provincial joint mock exam are released, she would talk to Chen Li and get her payback for what happened today.
