Chapter 233 - 233 Surprise
233 Surprise
Now that she had heard of the ideal result, Le Wan felt a little more relaxed, and the tension in her heart was also quietly wiped away.
She wanted to ask if Zhai Jing was the top scorer this time. In the end, before she could ask, the overjoyed principal had already revealed it.
“Hahaha! This time, our Mingcheng high school is going to be in the limelight! The top and second place in the province are both from our school!”
After hanging up the phone, Le Wan saw that Papa Le was testing the landline at home.
“I heard that we can also use the dedicated line to check the results. If there are too many people checking the results later and the website can’t be opened, we’ll use the landline to check. We’re prepared for both eventualities.”
“Dad, I think you’d better put down the phone,” said Le Wan.
Papa Le subconsciously put the microphone back and asked,
“What’s wrong?”
However, the next second, the landline phone rang, which gave him shock.
He took a look at the phone.
“Whose number is this?”
Ever since the cell phone became popular, very few people used the landline to make phone calls except for company calls.
The reason why they had kept their landline was that Grandpa Le and Grandma Le were more used to calling the landline.
“Dad, I think you can take the call,” Le Wan encouraged him.
Papa Le was stunned for a moment. He looked at Le Wan and suddenly realized something. He rubbed his hands nervously and picked up the microphone.
“Hello… Yes, yes, yes, I am Le Wan’s father… We just received the news and we’re not sure yet. We need to discuss it with the child. Thank you. Goodbye.”
“He said that he’s a teacher from the student recruitment department of the Capital University and would like to invite you to apply for his school.
Mama Le immediately reacted after hearing that.
“The results are out?”
Little Brother Le looked at the time.
“It’s not 2:20 yet?”
Big Brother Le suddenly realized something and laughed.
“It seems that our baby did well in the exam.”
Not only did the headmasters of the schools have a way to know the results of the top students, but all the major universities, especially the top few universities, were also very concerned about the results of the top students in each province so that they could grab more outstanding students as soon as possible.
Therefore, students who got into the top few places in the province would receive recruitment calls from the top universities in advance.
Looking at their expectant eyes, Le Wan didn’t know why, but her eyes suddenly felt hot and her nose felt a little sour.
“The principal called me just now and told me that I scored 746 points, and I came in second in the province.”
The next second, a burst of cheers rang out in the villa.
“I knew that our baby was the best. She’s second in the province!”
“Out of the hundreds of thousands of examinees in the province, She had gotten second place!”
Even if the Le family didn’t value grades, it was still something to be proud of to be able to get such a score and rank!
Papa Le hugged Le Wan, just like how he had carried her when they were young. He lifted her up and even jolted her a little.
“Ya!” Le Wan was startled and subconsciously hugged his father’s neck. Then, he laughed out loud.
Mama Le quickly pulled him back.
“Hurry up and put the baby down. Don’t you know how old you are? How old is the baby? If you use too much strength and hurt your waist or the baby falls, I’ll teach you a lesson!”
Although she was scolding him, the smile on her face didn’t stop.
Big Brother Le and Second Brother Le looked at each other and hurriedly went forward to carry Le Wan down. Papa Le was still very unhappy.
“I’m still old and strong. What’s wrong with carrying my daughter?”
Just then, the sound of Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 1 came from the living room. It was time to check the results.
“Thank you, big brother and second brother,” Le Wan said with a smile. “But now we don’t have to check it anymore.”
“Who said we don’t need to investigate?” Papa Le was the first to sit in front of the computer.
“Such a good report card, it would be a pity if we don’t take a photo of it as a memento!”
Five minutes later, Le Wan’s phone vibrated. She found that Papa Le’s moments had been updated.
She clicked on it to take a look. As expected, Papa Le had already posted her report card and even added the caption casually, “[ it’s a pity that I’m only four points away from full marks. I’m only second in the province. It seems that I need to work harder. ]”
Looking at Papa Le, who was holding his phone and laughing so hard that his teeth couldn’t be seen, Le Wan scratched her toe in embarrassment.
