In the blink of an eye, it was time for the children's final exams. Lin Feng and Zhang Yuxi hoped they would all achieve their ideal grades.

During their elementary school years, the couple rarely had to tutor them, only stepping in when the children occasionally got stuck on a problem. They didn't attend any after-school tutoring classes either. Their grades had always been excellent. Even now in the sixth grade, they consistently scored above ninety percent in subjects like Mandarin and math. Free from the anxiety plaguing other parents, Lin Feng and Zhang Yuxi were quite relaxed.

This time, they hoped the children would get into the city's key middle school, Yangcheng No. 5. This school, which had both a middle and a high school, boasted a high admission rate to top-tier institutions like Tsinghua and Peking University, making it one of the most prestigious in Yangcheng. Before the exams, Lin Feng had even taken the kids to visit the school. They all loved its pleasant environment and large playground.

The school also had a middle school division, so Si Bao, who focused on sports, could be promoted directly. Its teaching staff was also quite strong, ranking within the top five in Yangcheng, so it was a good path for him.

This year's final exams were held at a different school. As it happened, Er Bao, San Bao, and Si Bao were all assigned to test at this location. Lin Feng and Zhang Yuxi waited at the school gates for Er Bao and San Bao. Si Bao's teacher was responsible for him, so they would just pick him up in the afternoon to go home.

When the exam was over, the children came out one after another, in groups. From the looks on their faces, it was clear they had performed well. Without even being asked, they eagerly reported that the day's tests had gone great. The four of them compared their answers, and apart from the composition portion of the Mandarin exam, their answers were nearly identical. Their math answers were exactly the same, suggesting their final scores would be very similar.

After picking up Si Bao, they learned his test questions had been different from his siblings'.

Lin Feng took the children out for a celebratory meal. "When do you get your report cards?"

"Next week."

With the kids on vacation, Lin Feng had them sort all their elementary school textbooks so he could put them in the storage room later. As they were organizing, however, the children started to play around.

Lin Feng frowned. "You have half an hour left!"

Only then did they get serious again.

Nowadays, aside from cooking, Lin Feng had handed over all the household chores, like cleaning and washing the dishes, to the four children.

Hmm, I have quite a bit of leisure time now! he thought.

Zhang Yuxi, having taught for ten years, had been promoted at her school and now only had three classes a week, leaving her with plenty of free time as well.

She sat on the sofa. "Honey, where should we go for vacation this time?"

Lin Feng rubbed his forehead. "I'm not sure. Coach Qiao mentioned that when Si Bao turns fourteen, he can participate in the Youth Olympic Games. Regardless of the outcome, we should take him for the experience."

Zhang Yuxi calculated in her head; that was still a few years away.

"How about this? Let's invite more people on our trip this summer to make it livelier. It's been a long time since we all got together!"

Lin Feng sighed. "Let's wait until the children's grades are out."

A week later, the children went to school to collect their report cards. With the exception of Si Bao, all of them had been admitted to Yangcheng No. 5 Middle School!

The family was overjoyed and went out for another celebratory meal.

"Tomorrow, I'd like to invite the teachers from both of your classes to dinner to thank them for their six years of guidance and support," Lin Feng announced.

However, the teachers declined one by one. A meal wasn't necessary, they said. Seeing their students achieve such excellent results was the best gift a teacher could receive. They simply wished the children a bright and promising future and said that visiting the elementary school from time to time would be more than enough.

[Ding!]

[For sincerely accompanying your children through their elementary school years and fulfilling your duties as a father…]

[You have been awarded: One private island, Nell Island!]

Lin Feng, who was taking a sip of water, froze for a moment.

A private island? How big is it? It's the perfect place to invite everyone to have some fun!

Lin Feng checked the island's location and then looked up the travel time on his phone. It was a fifteen-hour flight.

Pfft!

Fifteen hours. It's a bit far, but that's to be expected.

The very next day, Lin Feng began to plan the trip. He invited both sets of parents, telling them anyone who wanted to come was welcome—the more, the merrier. In recent years, due to San Bao's performances, they hadn't spent the New Year in Meicheng and hadn't had a proper family gathering. In the future, with San Bao's performances and Si Bao's sports competitions, things would only get busier. He feared they would have even less time to return to Meicheng. This was the perfect opportunity to throw a celebration for the kids as well. He would cover the round-trip airfare, and they wouldn't have to worry about accommodation expenses.

Lin Feng sent out a group message explaining that his family would depart the day after tomorrow to get there first. As for the rest of them, they just needed to pack summer clothes and come if they wanted. He warned them it would be a bit of a trek, involving a layover and a total flight time of fifteen hours.

Good heavens, a private island! Only a fool would pass that up.

When a person's wealth reaches a certain level, the gap between people widens, and certain unrealistic thoughts simply vanish. At this point, none of them could even begin to imagine, let alone guess, just how wealthy Lin Feng had become. He owned a private island now; he was in a completely different league. The last big trip had been for Lin Feng and Zhang Yuxi's wedding in the Maldives. Those few days had felt like a once-in-a-lifetime experience. With another such opportunity, they were all eager to see the world.

After a long and tiring journey, the Lin family finally arrived at Nell Island. What's more, they were picked up from the airport by helicopter.

It was their first time on one. Zhang Yuxi went with Da Bao and Si Bao, while Er Bao and San Bao went with Lin Feng. Zhang Yuxi was terrified, but as a mother, she couldn't show it and had to set a good example for the children.

Lin Feng cheered her on, coaxing her gently, "It's okay, darling. I'll be right over!"

Zhang Yuxi gave Lin Feng a deep, meaningful look before following the children onto the helicopter. Da Bao and Si Bao were beyond excited, their mouths agape in amazement at the endless blue sea below. Zhang Yuxi, however, remained tense the entire time, her face pale, with no mind for the scenery.

Upon landing, the island's butler, who had been waiting for them, greeted them with drinks and fruit. Zhang Yuxi sat down on the sandy beach and took several deep breaths before she started to feel better. After a quick snack, Da Bao and Si Bao were already playing on the beach. The sand was clean and fine, with a wonderful texture.

Zhang Yuxi looked up at the sky and saw the other helicopter approaching. "Dad and the others are here!" she called out.

After they landed, Er Bao and San Bao complained of feeling a bit dizzy.

Hmm, probably motion sickness from the helicopter, Lin Feng thought.

"How are you two feeling?" Zhang Yuxi asked, worriedly looking at their pale little faces.

Er Bao and San Bao both shook their heads, insisting they were fine.

The man who introduced himself as the butler then took them on a tour of the island in a cart. The husband and wife were inwardly stunned. Zhang Yuxi's heart pounded in her chest, a single thought dominating her mind.

My god, how much did this island cost?!

But that thought was quickly pushed aside, because the place was simply too beautiful. The azure sea and cerulean sky nearly blended into a single, seamless line. The beaches were pristine white, the forests were lush and green, and the villa itself was exquisitely elegant. Occasionally, the cries of seabirds echoed from overhead. The island was staffed by a butler and four servants, including a chef.

After the tour, they were shown to their rooms, still completely dumbfounded. The children ran around the house, exploring every nook and cranny with curiosity. Lin Feng managed to maintain his composure, but Zhang Yuxi was about to burst.

She shot up from her seat. "Honey, how much did this private island cost?" she asked, her voice trembling slightly. "?! Is it very expensive? Do we still have any money left?"

Lin Feng was startled for a moment before calming his wife's nerves. "Don't worry, your husband still has plenty of money. Why would I be so irrational as to risk our entire family's savings on a private island?"

Hearing this, Zhang Yuxi finally felt relieved.

That's right, my husband would never do something like that!

With that thought, she relaxed and pulled Lin Feng along to see the rest of the interior, as their tour had mostly focused on the outdoors. The inside could be described with one word: luxurious. It was the absolute epitome of luxury. No wonder the rich were fond of such a decadent lifestyle; it truly was intoxicating. The butler and servants followed discreetly behind them, attending to their every need. Here, Lin Feng didn't have to arrange a thing; the staff had everything perfectly in hand.
