“We’re all queuing up according to the order of first come, first served. Why should she be in front of us when she just arrived? This is ridiculous!”
The troublemaking parent, adorned in fashionable attire with a red scarf around their neck and a pair of black shoes, stood in the crowd exuding a sense of superiority, influencing others to join in the protest. “Why? What kind of privilege does she have?”
“That’s right! We’ve been queuing for so long.”
“This is a school, a place to educate people. How can you have special privileges?”
“I’m not convinced.”
“I want to file a complaint.”
Cao Jun and Su Qing stood rooted to the ground, confused. The woman with the red scarf in front continued to smirk at Su Qing.
“What’s going on?”
“I don’t know either!” Cao Jun pondered for a moment and suddenly had an idea. His eyes lit up. “It must be because Xuexue’s results are good, so she received special attention.”
This year, Su Xue secured the top spot in the middle school examination, earning admission to high school. It would have caused quite a stir in the past, but Fifth Sister’s exceptional achievements overshadowed everyone else. Nevertheless, Cao Jun had always kept Su Xue’s accomplishments close to his heart. The thought of the outstanding girl he admired reignited his enthusiasm for studying.
He couldn’t be compared to Xuexue.
He did not want to be as pitiful as Sheng Nian. No matter how hard he tried, he would never be able to keep up with Fifth Sister Su’s footsteps.
Sheng Nian was in high school, and Fifth Sister Su was a college student, excelling as always.
Any man would feel inferior in front of Fifth Sister Su.
Fortunately, Xuexue was not that heaven-defying. It was not too late for him to work hard now.
“Is it that good?” Su Qing knew that Fourth Sister had good grades since she was young. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have fought with Big Sister to ensure her continued studying.
However, Su Qing never thought that her Fourth Sister’s grades would be so good that the teacher would give her special attention.
“Second Sister, you don’t know?” Cao Jun seemed a bit dissatisfied. “Xuexue’s results are the first in the county. She was admitted to high school with the top spot in the county.”
“Uh… I’m sorry! Xuexue only mentioned that she did quite well. We…”
This little girl didn’t say anything. The school teacher said that Xuexue’s results were good and brought glory to the school. The form teacher praised her many times too, but he never said that Xuexue was the first in the county.
Perhaps the teacher thought that Xuexue had said it herself.
Xuexue did not say anything but congratulated her fifth sister instead.
Su Qing somewhat understood what her elder sister meant. When a child grows up, they have more thoughts, and it becomes challenging to take care of them.
“Second Sister, I don’t mean to criticize you, but you shouldn’t be doing this. Fifth Sister Su’s grades are excellent, and she’s a once-in-a-century genius, but you shouldn’t ignore Xuexue!” Cao Jun was furious.
“No, you’ve misunderstood. We didn’t ignore anyone…” Su Qing wanted to explain that her sisters would not do anything to ostracize or isolate her.
However, on second thought, Fourth Sister was indeed very low-profile at home. She only liked to play with Fifth Sister since she was young. Now that Fifth Sister was away, Fourth Sister was left behind. She must be feeling lonely!
But they were poor children. They had to think about making money and taking care of their sisters..
