Chapter 12: Give Me Some Time! (2/2)

“My mom is tired, I need to go back and take care of her.”

“Please help clean up the place.”

After saying this.

Zhao Qingfeng bowed his hands in thanks, keeping the kindness in his heart.

Then, after comforting Shen Kuo and Aunt Ding, he helped his mother back upstairs.

Seeing no more entertainment, people gradually dispersed.

The three aunts, confident that Zhao Qingfeng was deliberately seeking his demise, devised a plan to monitor and prevent the mother and son from escaping, and then left.

Aunt Ding wanted to go and comfort Feng’s mother.

Shen Kuo held her hand, hesitated for a while, and then said, “Ding Xiang, let it be, I think Xiaofeng’s performance today was better than mine. Of course, I’m not talking about the big bet. But I think, Xiaofeng must have other ideas, let’s wait and see in a few days.”

Aunt Ding pondered for a while.

Indeed.

Today, Zhao Qingfeng controlled the pace of the entire scene.

He led the three aunts by the nose. Regardless of the outcome, at least this provocation and bet could keep them quiet for two months.

But she was equally worried about Zhao Qingfeng’s bet and immediately said to Shen Lingyao, “Yaoyao, from tomorrow, you must tutor him well, don’t let him play around anymore.”

Shen Lingyao couldn’t wait for Zhao Qingfeng to study hard.

She even asked if the articles Zhao Qingfeng had published before could be a bonus for the college entrance exam.

Shen Kuo shook his head, “That doesn’t count, and he is not a minority or has a special talent in sports or anything like that, it’s useless.”

The family of three returned home.

Once upstairs, Shen Lingyao rushed into the bedroom, opened the window, and gazed at the seventh floor opposite.

At that moment.

Zhao Qingfeng had just settled Feng’s mother.

Under his comforting words, Feng’s mother had already accepted the fact of being expelled.

Her only concern was whether they could get into the top three.

After much thought, Feng’s mother didn’t have any good ideas, “If it really doesn’t work out, after the college entrance exam, we can sell the house and move far away.”

That’s not acceptable.

The ones who should be humiliated were the three aunts, not his mother.

Moreover.

The current Zhao Qingfeng was not an ordinary high school student.

His English ability was so good that taking IELTS or TOEFL seemed as easy as chopping vegetables.

Even though his Chinese was still lacking.

But.

He had his own plan to ensure a super high score.

“Mom, give me two months to prove myself.”

Zhao Qingfeng peeled an apple and handed it to Feng’s mother.

“You can peel apples now?”

Feng’s mother was very surprised. A month ago, Zhao Qingfeng was dumber than a dog.

“I can also take care of you until you’re a hundred years old.”

Zhao Qingfeng’s words were full of comfort, dispelling many of Feng’s mother’s worries.

She ate the apple.

Looking up at the wedding photo hanging in the living room.

She silently sighed in her heart, “Old Zhao, our son has made it, really made it. Old Zhao, I miss you. I wish you could see our son, I wish you could taste the apple he peeled…”

Tears fell.

Everything was unsaid.

Zhao Qingfeng stayed by his mother’s side.

Until he watched her fall asleep and covered her with the blanket, he then went back to his room to sleep.

………………..

The next morning.

As soon as dawn broke, Zhao Qingfeng was woken up by Shen Lingyao lifting his quilt.

“Ah! You! How come! Sleeping naked!”

Shen Lingyao’s face turned red with shock and embarrassment.
