Chapter 139

Father Mu asked before taking a bite: “Shouldn’t the exam results be out already? How did the two of you perform this time?”

When Father Mu mentioned the results, Mu Qingyao’s face immediately sank. She turned her head and gave a furtive look at Mu Qingyi. She replied, “My exams went fine. But there was no improvement or regression in my ranking.”

Father Mu said: “Well, I’m not too worried about your studies, but there is always room for improvement. You will surely catch up with your brother one day.”

Father Mu finally got a little happier as he mentioned this. Everyone praised his children whenever they were talking about them. Mu Qingyi was of course excellent in both character and studies, while Mu Qingyao was also outstanding in her studies and played the piano. They were well-known in their social circle.

Father Mu asked Mu Qingyi: “Qingyi, you got first place in the ranking again, right?”

“No, I am in second place.” Mu Qingyi answered coldly.

Father Mu was a little surprised: “Eh? Song Qinghe surpassed you?”

“No, first place went to Xu Xinduo.”

There was a sudden silence in the dining room.

In fact, Mu Qingyao didn’t want to let her parents know about this matter. That was why she had answered vaguely before. However, Mu Qingyi ended up saying it anyway. She could only continue to eat while acting as nothing had happened.

She didn’t want to see her parents comparing her to others. She hated the feeling of being compared.

What she hated the most was the fact that Xu Xinduo was better than her.

After a while, Mother Mu asked with a trembling voice: “Is Duoduo really that good at studying?”

“Well, her total marks were six points higher than mine.”

“Isn’t she in the international class? How did she manage to do it?”

“She missed the first exams in the international class. Meaning that she did not have enough credits, so she took the tests of the ordinary classes too. Students in the international class who take part in the ordinary class examination will get half of the marks they got in ordinary class examination added to their credits.”

Mother Mu nodded with a somewhat dazed expression.

It should have been something to be happy about, but she wasn’t happy. She had mixed feelings stirring in her heart which were hard to describe.

She asked again: “What has Duoduo been up to in school recently? How is she doing?”

“She is working hard, she is participating in several sport competitions.”

“Sport Competitions? What competitions? “

“A lot.”

“She…”

Seeing Mother Mu’s confused expression, Mu Qingyi started to explain: “If she wins the competition, she will get prizes and credits. She should be needing money.”

Father Mu was a little frustrated and couldn’t help but mumble: “What is she trying to do? Isn’t she just disgracing herself by doing this?!”

Mu Qingyi said: “No, she has won first place in all the competitions she took part in, so far.”

“First place? What kind of things were they teaching in her previous school? How did she get first place?”

Mu Qingyi: “She has already gotten first place in Ping Pong and mixed martial arts. She is currently participating in tennis.”

“Mixed martial arts?!” Father Mu felt that it was completely unbelievable. “How did she learn mixed martial arts? Moreover, even if ping pong is available in the countryside, how did she learn tennis?”

Mu Qingyi looked at Father Mu and asked in a deep voice, “Why can’t you admit that she is talented?”

Father Mu was still in a state of disbelief: “How is it even possible?! How was she able to learn so many different skills, while living in a small village?”

“Is it really that hard to accept that you can’t control everything?”

“What do you mean, Mu Qingyi?”
