In Li Chengqian’s home, Li Tianlan and Chen Li sat opposite each other.


“Old Li, Huang Jingjing called me just now to tell me something.” Huang Jingjing was Jian Qingli’s mother.


“Oh, what did Huang Jingjing say to you again?” Li Tianlan frowned. He didn’t like Huang Jingjing. Every time Huang Jingjing called Chen Li, she was either showing off Jian Qingli’s results or talking about Li Chengqian’s results.


It often made the two of them very uneasy.


Chen Li said worriedly, “Huang Jingjing said that Tianyi High School is about to hold a second provincial joint mock exam. The school management is paying close attention to this matter and has come up with a plan.”


“In this exam, the bottom 100 students of Tianyi High School will be put together to form a new class.”


“This class will be full of mischievous students, and the teachers will be those inexperienced ones who have just joined the workforce.”


“You know our son’s results. He will definitely be assigned to the Progressive class.” Chen Li’s face was filled with worry.


When she contacted the teacher initially, she was told that Li Chengqian had been studying very seriously these few days. She was still secretly pleased, but in the blink of an eye, she heard the bad news from Huang Jingjing.


If he was assigned to the Progressive class, without a familiar teacher and learning environment, surrounded by mischievous students, it would take a miracle for Li Chengqian to continue maintaining this learning spirit!


“Old Li, think of a way to see if it’s possible for your son to stay in his current class.” Chen Li was especially anxious, and was hoping that Li Tianlan would have a way.


Li Tianlan frowned. “What’s wrong with this school? They should be focused on helping students improve their grades at this critical moment of the university entrance examination. Why are they planning to reassign classes at a time like this? They should have their heads checked!”


“When our son comes back, we have to give him a prep talk. Even if he gets assigned to the Progressive class, he has to persevere and keep studying hard.”


“Old Li, your son’s future is at stake! Think hard, surely you can find a way.” Chen Li looked at Li Tianlan expectantly.


“I’m just an ordinary person, what can I do?” Li Tianlan smiled bitterly. He had already gone through the people he knew in his mind.


Crack!


“Dad, Mom, I brought back some pea pods. How about we stir-fry these for dinner tonight?” After Li Chengqian went straight into the kitchen to put down the two bags of pea pods.


“Dad, Mom, what’s wrong? Why aren’t you saying anything?” Li Chengqian put down the bags and walked to the living room. He saw the two elders looking very solemn.


Li Chengqian was stunned. He carefully recalled what had happened in his previous life. Other than the Peach Blossom Mountain the next day, there was indeed nothing major happening at this time.


After confirming that nothing particularly bad would happen, Li Chengqian finally relaxed.


“What else could it be? It’s about Tianyi High School’s class reassignment…” Li Tianlan said somewhat dejectedly.


“You guys already know about the second joint mock exam?” Li Chengqian said in surprise. He was prepared to keep this matter from his parents because once his parents found out, they would definitely be very worried about him. They would also think of all ways to let him stay in his current class.


In his previous life, his parents had done this. However, after putting in so much effort and losing all their face, Li Chengqian still got reassigned to the Progressive class in the end.


“Yes, your Auntie Huang told us.” Chen Li had a bitter expression.


Looking at the two elders, one was bitter and the other was depressed, he immediately understood why the two elders had such expressions.


“You guys are worried that I will be assigned to the Progressive class, right?” Li Chengqian didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. With his current results, he would never be assigned to the Progressive class.


“Yes!” Chen Li and Li Tianlan were both sullen .


“The two of you don’t have to worry. I won’t be assigned to the Progressive class.” Li Chengqian said firmly and confidently.


“Also, before the results are out, don’t go pleading with anybody.”


“You can go talk to someone if my results really turned out to be bad.”


“Are you really confident?” A mother knows her son best. Li Chengqian’s confidence was genuine. Moreover, Li Chengqian had never lied to her since he was young.


“I’m confident! Just wait and see. I’ll definitely give you guys a surprise.” Li Chengqian smiled confidently.


“Alright! Mom will wait for your surprise.” Chen Li hesitated for a moment before nodding.


Chen Li temporarily put aside her anxiety and hurriedly ran into the kitchen. “Son, why did you buy so many pea pods? How much is a catty? Have you been shortchanged?”


Upon closer inspection, the two bags of pea pods were both verdant and plump. The pea pods were so tender that water could be squeezed out.


She said in surprise, “Son, where did you buy these pea pods? They’re so fresh.”


“I met an old lady selling it on the way,” Li Chengqian answered vaguely. “Mom, I’m hungry.”


Immediately, Chen Li stopped caring about these details and began to cook.


The fried pea pods were quickly served on the table. Li Chengqian popped one into his mouth, and his eyes lit up.


Delicious!


The unique fragrance of the tender pea pods was so aromatic it stirred one’s appetite.


“Mom, you cook so well.”


A smile immediately appeared on Chen Li’s face. “Eat more if it’s delicious.”


“Chen Li, these peas are so delicious!” Li Tianlan couldn’t help praising her after taking two bites.


“Is it really that delicious?” Chen Li picked up a piece and placed it in her mouth. Then, she was instantly conquered by the natural and fresh taste.


It didn’t take long for the family of three to finish the big bowl of pea pods.


“Honey, let’s bring some of these peas pods for our picnic tomorrow, we can roast them there. These pea pods that our son bought are the best I’ve eaten.” Li Tianlan rubbed his bloated stomach.


“Alright!”


“Son, our family, Aunt Huang’s family, and Ding Ling’s family have agreed to go to Peach Blossom Mountain for a picnic tomorrow. We’ll leave at eight in the morning. You should sleep early tonight. Don’t be late.” The three families had discussed the picnic a few days ago, as a means to help the three students destress.


“Peach Blossom Mountain?”


“In my previous life, because of my grades, my parents were mocked by Aunt Huang on Peach Blossom Mountain. I got upset and went for a walk around the mountain, and because I was preoccupied thinking about my studies, my father accidentally fell and injured his leg.” Recalling the situation at that time, Li Chengqian felt like kicking himself.


He was a scum in his previous life. He only had eyes for Jian Qingli and didn’t even care that his father was injured.


“Indifferent to the people who care about you, attentive to the people who ignore you!” Recalling his behavior in his previous life, Li Chengqian couldn’t face himself.


“In the past, you guys have always been protecting me. From today onwards, I’ll protect you guys.”


“This time on Peach Blossom Mountain, I definitely won’t let any of you get hurt. I won’t let anyone hurt you!” Li Chengqian made up his mind.


“These pea pods are quite effective!” After his meal, a force surged through his body and a warm feeling spread from his stomach throughout his entire body. Even without looking at his personal interface, Li Chengqian knew that the Strength Stats he had consumed to plant the pea pods were recovering.


The effect on Li Tianlan and Chen Li were even more obvious.


Because they were ordinary people, their Strength Stats were only around 10 points. After a day’s work, their Strength Stats were about 3 points. They would have been exhausted and would have only wanted to sleep and rest.


However, because of the pea pods they had eaten, the energy they had consumed was quickly replenished. Just as they finished eating, the energy they had consumed for the day had already been replenished.


His body felt warm and fuzzy.


His energy had also come back. He was invigorated and full of life!


However, the pea pods they ate were still releasing energy. The two of them felt a little warm.


“Honey, this meal?” Li Tianlan looked at Chen Li in surprise.


“It’s not the rice, it’s the pea pods! There’s something wrong with the pea pods!” The rice was the same as usual. The only difference was the pea pods that Li Chengqian brought back.


“I’ll go to my son’s room to take a look first.” Li Tianlan suppressed the horny thoughts in his heart and entered Li Chengqian’s room worriedly.


When he realized that Li Chengqian was fine and had already fallen asleep, he quickly ran out. “Our son is fine. He’s already asleep. Let’s go to our room to talk about something…”


“Also, put the pea pods in the fridge. You can’t bring them to the picnic. They are not good for children!”
