Bai Suxin angrily brought the four tubular bones and half a Big-head Silverfish that weighed at least six kilograms home. She calmed down.
Her husband and daughter were around, so while her son was not back yet, she quickly told them, "Today is the first stage of the national college exam, but A 'chao hasn't mentioned it yet. By the looks of it, he doesn't have any confidence. When he comes back later, don't ask or say anything. Talk less and eat more, understand?"
Meng Yishan and Bai Jiacao looked at each other and nodded.
"Especially you. It's fine if you're usually impolite, but don't provoke your brother today, understand?" Bai Suxin told her daughter solemnly.
Bai Jiacao first stuck out her tongue before she puffed out her chest. "Mom, don't worry. If my brother can't get into college, he still has me. I'll definitely become a superhuman. Then, I'll protect this family, including my brother! "
The girl added in her heart, 'Of course, the prerequisite is that my brother will submit to me and listen to me so that I can bully him.'
The future Dark Witch narrowed her eyes, and a scene rose in her mind. In the near future, she would get into college in a grand fashion and become a powerful superhuman. Her brother would wipe away his tears and slap his thigh. "Sis, you're really good. I underestimated you in the past. In the future, the family will rely on you, and I'll rely on you too!"
"Hehehehe." Bai Jiacao could not help but laugh. Then, her mother flicked her on the forehead.
"Why are you laughing like an idiot? Come and help me wash the vegetables."
"Oh, I'm coming. Wow, Mom, four tubular bones? Can't we eat them?"
"What are you talking about? Four tubular bones can make our family go bankrupt? Why? My son and daughter are the best. We can eat whatever others can. Tomorrow, when Dragon Bamboo Shoots and Golden Frogs go into the market, I'll buy them for you. "
"Long live Mom!"
When Meng Chao returned home, he was stunned by the delicious food that filled the small dining table.
His parents and little sister ate with their heads lowered and treated him as if he did not exist.
He washed his hands and filled his bowl.
He was still thinking about Great Waves Corporation. Just now, he had been browsing through his phone and saw a lot of news about Great Waves Corporation being investigated. He could not help but gasp in amazement. He did not expect that Zuo Haoran's family would be so dirty.
It was no wonder that Zuo Haoran had betrayed them in his previous life.
'The Yan family is really ruthless. Just because of the word' trouble ', they used such a ruthless method. Looks like I'll have to be more careful in the future. I'll have to think about how I use the Old Fire Relayer's identity.'
Also, he mentioned that he was the Old Fire Relayer's disciple. Did that mean that he knew of Meng Chao's existence?
This wasn't a big deal. He didn't want to hide it in the first place. Instead, he wanted to use this identity to openly come into contact with a higher level of power.
However, it was not good for him to use his connections to intimidate others and scam them for food. He had to become a superhuman as soon as possible and not embarrass Old Fire Relayer!
Meng Chao thought about it, and his expression became rather stern.
When Bai Jiacao saw his expression, she held herself back. She wanted to say something, but she did not.
Meng Yishan and Bai Suxin quickly coughed dryly. They stared at Bai Jiacao and mouthed, "Shut up and eat!"
Bai Jiacao swiped her finger across her lips to show that she had put on a zipper. Then, she picked up a tubular bone and placed it in her bowl. She swiped her finger again to show that she had opened the zipper over her mouth. She let out a whimper and took a bite of the meat on the tubular bone's head. Her cheeks puffed up.
When she used a straw to suck the bone marrow from the depths of the tubular bone, slurping sounds could be heard, and she finally caught her brother's attention.
"What's going on today? Did the military occupy a Demonic Halberd Pig's nest? Is the price of pork on sale?" Meng Chao asked.
"There's no price reduction. If you have to eat, you have to eat. Here, son." Meng Yishan picked up a big tubular bone for his son in a friendly manner.
"It's weird. Why aren't you saying anything? Is something the matter?" Meng Chao frowned.
"It's nothing. Our lives are getting more prosperous. What could possibly happen? Hahahaha!" Meng Yishan laughed boorishly.
"That's right. You just like to worry about nothing. Hehehehe." Bai Suxin pursed her lips.
"Big Brother, don't worry. I'm here for everything. In the future, I'll be the pillar of support in the family. Hehehehe." Bai Jiacao smiled.
"You'll be the pillar? Then things will be interesting in our house! "
Meng Chao tapped his sister's nose and said casually, "Oh, I have something to tell you. Didn't we have the first stage of national college examination today? Did I get the eighth or ninth place in the whole school? In any case, I passed. Ten days later, I'll go to the education department of the region to take the second stage. "
His father, mother, and sister were stunned.
"Big Brother, w-what did you say? Did you get the eighth or ninth place in the class?" Bai Jiacao asked stutteringly.
"You're so young, so why are your ears so bad? I didn't pay attention to whether I got the eighth or ninth place in the whole school. I just need to pass!" Meng Chao also picked up a straw and slowly sucked on the tubular bone. He simply allowed the storm to brew between his parents and his sister.
After a total of half a minute, Bai Jiacao jumped up. "Big Brother, you passed!"
'Ahhhh! Ninth High School is a key high school in the region. If nothing goes wrong, the top ten in the school will definitely get into college and become superhumans. Then, won't my beautiful dream be shattered? I'll never be able to bully my big brother again!'
The future Dark Witch cried tears of joy and sadness.
Meng Yishan and Bai Suxin were also shocked. They looked at each other for a long time before they gradually digested the good news.
"Son, you've recovered from all your injuries!" Meng Yishan mumbled.
"Yeah. I told you last time that the effects of Ripple Force are really good. Later, I got to know Ning Shewo, and he introduced me to some gene medicine and concentrated nutritional fluid. Finally, I recovered completely before the first stage of national college examination." Meng Chao smiled.
"No way." His father and mother looked at each other. "Last time, you clearly said that you gradually recovered after you got to know a master on an unhealthy website."
"… Don't dwell on the details," Meng Chao said. "The main point is, Dad, Mom, don't worry. I'll definitely get into college!"
"Yeah, son, you're the best."
Bai Suxin covered her mouth and sucked in a few breaths quietly. Suddenly, a brilliant smile bloomed on her face. She brought out her phone and aimed it at Meng Chao. She snapped a few pictures, then pointed it at the dining table. She snapped a few more pictures before she opened her social media app and quickly typed.
A bad feeling rose in Meng Chao's heart. He quickly tapped on his WeChat Moments to take a look.
Just as he expected, his mother had posted the picture of him sucking on tube bones and the table full of food.
There was also a message below it.
[My performance today was average. I barely managed to get into the top ten of Ninth High School. If I want to get into Dragon City University, I'll have to continue working hard. Hurry up and buy some good food for me to nourish myself.
[I didn't expect that tube bones would be so expensive now. Four of them cost one hundred and twenty. Ah, I can't afford them!]
"…" Meng Chao cried.
"Mom, don't be like this! Hurry up and delete my picture! I don't want to lose face!"
"What are you saying? My son did well in the exam, and I'm not allowed to show off. I'm not bragging, and I didn't say that you got into the top three. I'm just telling the truth. What are you afraid of?"
This time, it was Bai Suxin's turn to laugh. "You don't know how angry I was when I ran into the plump lady in the market just now. Hmph! She's so happy that she's flying around and treating the market as a skating rink! My son got into the top ten of Ninth High School! What did I say? Am I as smug as she is?"
Meng Chao could only ask for help from Meng Yishan. "Dad, aren't you going to do something about this?"
"I can't." Meng Yishan hunched his shoulders and whispered, "Your mom has long since spread the news that our family has opened a company. It's just a small resource recovery company, but she made it sound like I'm the chairman of a corporation. I don't have the face to meet my neighbors and relatives right now."
"Ha! I saw it!" Bai Suxin raised her phone smugly.
The father and son went over and saw a string of comments in her WeChat Moments.
Auntie Zhao: A 'chao is amazing! Has he recovered from his injuries?
Granny Wang: A 'chao has been smart since he was young. He'll definitely get into Dragon City University.
Granny Yao: Congratulations! You're an undergraduate student! You're amazing!
Fourth Auntie: When are you going to have A 'chao come to our house and teach Young Yi some learning experiences?
Li Qijie: You're calling someone else's child? Suxin, you're really lucky.
Only the plump lady did not leave a comment. She just liked the post.
Meng Chao covered his face and made up his mind that he had to earn money as soon as possible so that he could move out of Blessed Heavenly Garden.
He could not stay in this area anymore.
…
After they ate dinner, Meng Chao made another announcement.
"Tomorrow is Saturday. I've made an appointment with a famous doctor from Fengshui Medical Center to bring my mom to have her leg checked. Should we go together?"
Bai Suxin and Meng Yishan were shocked.
Fengshui Medical Center was a very famous private hospital in Dragon City. The doctors there were all superhumans, and their skills were top-notch. Of course, their fees were also top-notch.
Bai Suxin blurted out, "I'm receiving treatment in a public hospital and also going through rehabilitation at the community hospital. Everything is covered, and I'm already much better than before. Why should I waste this money?"
Meng Chao smiled. "Mom, public hospitals don't have superalloy bionic joint replacements."
"Superalloy bionic joint replacements?" Meng Yishan frowned as well. "A 'chao, that sounds like the most advanced technology. How much does it cost?"
"Money isn't a problem. Didn't we just sell a crystalized neurosphere some time ago? Elder Ning also recommended me to this hospital. I'm going to his friend to treat me, and they'll give me a discount. I won't need a lot of money." Meng Chao was full of confidence.
Meng Yishan was still hesitating, but Bai Suxin had already shook her head. "I'm not going, I'm not going. I've been living like this for the past twenty years. It's not like I can't walk. At most, I'll just be a little slower and look a little ugly. Are you going to look down on me?"
Meng Chao felt a lump in his throat. "Mom, I know that you're worried about money. That's why I waited until today to say this. It's because the ranking for the school test is out that I can prove that your son has the ability to get into college and become a superhuman! Once I become a superhuman and earn a lot of money for the family, it'll be nothing for me to get a full set of superalloy joints. "
Bai Suxin lowered her head and said, "Then, once you really get into college, it won't be too late for you to go to a private hospital."
"No, I can't wait another second."
Meng Chao said firmly. "Why would I risk my life to get into college? It's because I want my family to live a good life. I want my dear mom to become the prettiest and happiest mom in the world! "If I don't settle your treatment plan before the national college examination, I'll be thinking about it during the exam. How am I supposed to focus then?"
When the topic shifted to the national college examination, Meng Chao's parents could do nothing about it.
Meng Yishan had been in contact with Thunderbolt over this period of time, and he had heard Ning Shewo praise his son's knowledge and skills multiple times. He knew that his son had gotten an amazing master online. He thought about it seriously before he turned his head around and said to his wife, "Suxin, our son has grown up. He can make decisions for the family now. Just listen to him. If you really can't do it, there's still me. The company has been running smoothly.
Bai Suxin's lips twitched for a long time before she finally smiled. "Then, should we listen to our son?"
Meng Yishan made the decision. "We'll listen to our son."
Bai Suxin lowered her head in slight embarrassment and looked at her daughter's straight legs. Her eyes burned, and she whispered, "That's true. Old Meng, it's been years since I've danced with you properly!"
"Mom, what's this?"
Meng Chao laughed. "Once your legs are completely healed, I'll book a place for you and Dad in the biggest and most luxurious hotel in the city. You'll enjoy a candlelight dinner and a world of your own. I'll also hire a band to accompany you, and you can dance however you want!"
"Wow …"
Bai Jiacao looked at him, and her watery eyes were filled with stars.
She suddenly felt that her big brother was really domineering …
