Good Dad System [Arc 3] Chapter 32.5: If You Have A Stepfather, You Will Have A Stepmother (5)

He coughed lightly: “Qinqin, how did you do in the monthly exam this time?” This is Zhou Qin’s first monthly exam in a foreign language middle school. Su Lian rarely mentions Zhou Qin’s grades, only that this child is quite sensible. He didn’t know much about her situation.

 

When he asked these words, Chi Liang, who was in the same class as Zhou Qin, froze subconsciously and pursed her lips.

 

Zhou Qin looked up and met this gentle stepfather. The other side was completely different from her biological father. Her father could not speak and looked a little fierce, but he was always open and honest with people. The stepfather was very gentle and never angry, but he was very far away from her.

 

“My monthly exam is the first in the class and the second in the grade.” The first in the grade is Xu Shaohan from the next class.

 

After she finished speaking, Zhou Sulian’s expression was a little surprised: “Qinqin, you did really well in the exam! “She always felt that the teaching level of ordinary schools and private high schools was vastly different, and her daughter had always achieved top grades in school. The grade can still be maintained.

 

Chi Jianhua nodded in appreciation. This stepdaughter had good academic performance, apart from anything else: “Qinqin did very well in the test this time. Daddy will buy you anything you want!” He wanted to promise a gift directly, but found that he didn’t know what his stepdaughter liked, which made him feel a little embarrassed. He looked at Zhou Sulian, “Sulian, buy Qinqin something she likes. As a father, I haven’t given her any gifts yet!”

 

He added another sentence: “Why don’t you buy her a mobile phone? Some time ago, Liangliang said she wanted one!” He guessed that a little girl of this age should like the same things.

 

“That thing is expensive. You said I spoil children, but you spoil even more.” Zhou Sulian laughed at her husband. She was busy greeting her daughter, “Why are you so ignorant? You don’t even know how to thank your father.” She married into a wealthy family and it was her second marriage. How could she have any dowry? Although Chi Jianhua was generous, she was cautious and never spent money recklessly. She thought her daughter must be very happy to get a mobile phone.

 

“…Thank you, Dad.” Zhou Qin lowered her head and said thanks, clearly saying that thanking was a normal and easy thing, why she felt so uncomfortable, Zhou Qin couldn’t understand.

 

Chi Liang suddenly burst into tears, and big tears fell one by one.

“Aiya, Liangliang, why are you crying!” Zhou Sulian was busy drawing a piece of tissue and wiping her stepdaughter’s tears, while Chi Jianhua beside her was at a loss.

 

Chi Liang felt uncomfortable: “Dad promised to buy me a mobile phone, why didn’t he buy it for me!” Her father has always been strict with her and refused to buy her a smartphone. Thinking that her father bought it directly for Zhou Qin this time, she felt it was unfair, why is it? Obviously it’s her father, her father’s money!

 

“Didn’t you miss the exam?” Chi Jianhua was also clumsy in coaxing his daughter, “Wait for the next monthly exam, if you make progress, Dad will buy it for you.”

 

“No!” Chi Liang cried even harder, “You are biased, it’s unfair! I want one too.” She wiped her tears on her father’s body

 

“How can it be unfair?” Chi Jianhua reluctantly cast a look of help at his wife again, “You don’t do well in the test yourself, who’s to blame?”

“Yes, yes, yes, blame me for not doing well in the test yourself!” This time, Chi Jianhua finally exposed his daughter’s heart. Chi Liang cried breathlessly, “I’m just stupid, I can’t be worse than others in the test! Anyway, I’m a pig-headed, big fool, I can’t do well in the test!” She started to make trouble unreasonably, not caring at all that she just said she was careless.

 

“Don’t talk nonsense!”

 

“I’m not talking nonsense. Anyway, if I don’t do well in the exam, I’m a bad kid. I just want you to hate me. You don’t care about me or love me anymore.” Chi Liang sobbed and covered her face with tissue paper, her tears soaked the paper.

 

Zhou Sulian was so distressed that she hugged her stepdaughter tightly and coaxed her softly: “It’s all your dad’s fault, not you, what’s wrong with this test? Although our Liangliang didn’t do well in the test this time, she can do it next time. You will definitely pass the exam.”

 

“I won’t be good in the test next time.”

“If you don’t pass the test, you won’t pass the test. Now it’s test-oriented education. I heard your aunt say it several times. Many of those children who do well in the test are asked by their parents to stay up all night to study, go to this cram school, and study that teaching aid book. Yes, they’re too tired! A beautiful body is more important, you don’t have to learn to read, let’s go step by step.” Zhou Sulian glared at her husband and hinted with her mouth, “Just say something to comfort you.”

 

She also knew that Chi Liang was just angry, and the other party was a good girl, but this time she stopped.

 

Chi Jianhua opened his mouth: “Dad will buy you a mobile phone, let’s buy the best configuration, the latest style, better than anyone else’s!”

 

“Really?” Chi Liang had stopped crying, knowing that she had just been throwing a tantrum and was willful, and blushed in embarrassment, “But I didn’t do well in the exam, or reward me next time.”

 

Zhou Sulian hurriedly added: “Can others prove that they are better than you by taking the first place in the exam? Liangliang is the best in her parents’ hearts!”

Chi Jianhua also nodded: “Yes, Liangliang is the best. Let your mother take you to buy a mobile phone later.”

 

Chi Liang burst into tears and laughed, coquettishly: “Just willful for once, and never again.” The feeling of being surrounded by her parents made her feel safe again. What she wanted was not a mobile phone, but a love that belonged to her.

 

Zhou Sulian just breathed a sigh of relief and was about to take some fruit for her stepdaughter to eat, only to find that Zhou Qin, who was sitting next to her, had a pale face and a very ugly expression, with tears in her eyes. She looked at her daughter beggingly. She couldn’t and didn’t want to make the atmosphere that had been restored with great difficulty awkward. She was worried. Fortunately, Zhou Qin quickly held back her tears, turned her head stiffly, and watched TV. She was relieved and began to feed Chi Liang and Chi Jianhua with freshly washed grapes.

 

But she didn’t know that the tears she held back were all endured with pain. Zhou Qin pinched her hand, gritted her teeth, and told herself to hold back.

 

In the afternoon, Zhou Sulian really kept her promise, and took Chi Liang and Zhou Qin to the mobile phone store to pick up the mobile phone. They went to see an imported smart phone brand that has been selling very well in China in the past two years. The press conference was held a few days ago, and the new product has just been launched.
