My Childhood Sweetheart Is a Little Crybaby!-Chapter 64: You Wouldn’t Want to Lose a Younger Brother-in-law, Right? (Thanks to [Ye Qingqing] for the reward)
He had completely forgotten about this part. Fortunately, he hadn’t given the score-altered test paper to his mom, or else he would have been seriously dealt with.
Young Master Xu secretly celebrated his luck while saying, "Mom, mom, it’s all a misunderstanding. I will definitely do well next time."
"Misunderstanding?" Lin Wan let out a cold snort, "Are you saying the teacher marked your paper wrong? Or recorded your score incorrectly?"
Xu Jinyan: "That’s not the case!"
"Then what kind of misunderstanding are you talking about?" Lin Wan suddenly raised her voice, scaring Young Master Xu so much that his little body shuddered, and he hastily corrected himself, "No, not a misunderstanding, it was an accident."
Lin Wan was not buying it, "Accident? I think you are the accident."
Someone was talking to Lin Wan on the other end of the phone; after hastily lecturing Young Master Xu for a few sentences, she hung up saying, "You better shape up. Your mother will deal with you when I get back."
After hanging up, Xu Jinyan looked dejectedly at Jiang Yuan: "You wouldn’t want to lose a little uncle, would you?" In this family, only Jiang Xiaoyuan could save him from Lin Xiaowan’s wild beatings.
As long as this girl cried, her mom would surely agree to any demand she made.
Jiang Yuan knew in her heart and asked, "Did Aunt Wan scold you?"
Xu Jinyan drooped his head: "I think my mom is right, I am the accident of this family. I also feel like I don’t belong here. Maybe I should just run away from home."
Jiang Yuan reached out with her soft and tender little hand, patting his shoulder and said, "Don’t talk like that, you’re just a late bloomer. I believe you will do well next time."
This time, her tone was obviously much more sincere.
"Really?" Xu Jinyan’s spirit suddenly revived, showing no sign of just prior dejection.
He also felt he might still be salvageable.
"Mm!" Jiang Yuan pursed her rosy lips, wondering why it felt like he didn’t really need comfort?
"Thank you! Jiang Xiaoyuan, I misunderstood you before. Even though you’re troublesome and delicate, you have good insight." She could actually see through his facade of scoring 38 points to his real potential.
Suddenly, he didn’t find the little girl so annoying anymore.
Jiang Yuan: ...
Why did she suddenly feel less inclined to comfort him?
Considering that it was him comforting her at this moment. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢
Touched, Xu Jinyan reached out his arms and hugged her, "Considering your faith in me, I will score high on the next test to show everyone."
Jiang Yuan: "How high? 90?"
That seemed a bit too high!
Xu Jinyan: "Looking down on me? Let me tell you, if Young Master Xu seriously tries, scoring 100 is no problem. But I’m afraid if I score too high all at once, it might demotivate others from studying. How about we start with 60 points?"
The key is not to boast too much, it would be bad if it falls through!
Jiang Yuan: ...
Looking at him, she nodded and said, "I think that’s doable!"
If he could pass, that would be progress too.
"Wait and see, next time I’ll show you all my true ability, and I’ll make sure everyone is shocked!" Young Master Xu was full of fighting spirit.
Suddenly feeling a chill at the back of his neck, he looked up to see his brother looking at him expressionlessly, "Have you finished correcting your test paper?"
Xu Jinyan’s small frame stiffened, and he quickly let go of Jiang Yuan, saying, "I will go and correct it right now!"
Xu Jiayan then stepped forward, took Jiang Yuan by the hand, and said, "Shall we go? Weren’t you asking for my autograph?"
