Chapter 93: Some people are elated in the spring breeze, while others are disheartened.
One night, the child was writing her homework late into the night and suddenly burst into tears, screaming that she hated studying. "I’m just an ordinary person! Why does Mom insist on forcing me to excel?! I’d rather jump off a building and end it all than endure the humiliation of being scolded in class because I can’t finish my homework or solve equations."
Sister Zhao became even angrier and pointed toward the balcony: "Jump, then! If you have the guts, go ahead and jump. If you jump first, I’ll follow right after you."
In the end, mother and daughter held each other and cried their hearts out.
What can she do? This is just how the rules of society are.
How did she know that Shen You’an was this year’s top scorer in the high school entrance exam?
Because once, she accidentally saw a cartoon character drawn in her daughter’s planner, with Shen You’an’s name and bio written next to it. Even more absurdly, her daughter had stuck the drawing on the wall and was kneeling before it day and night.
She thought her daughter had gone crazy from studying, but her daughter explained, "She’s my idol. We all call her the ’God of Academics.’ She’s incredible. Before every exam, we pray to her, hoping she’ll bless us to achieve our ideal scores."
And whether it was due to psychological suggestion or not, ever since praying to the ’God of Academics,’ her daughter’s grades really did improve.
Even she found it unbelievable.
So now, the ’God of Academics’ that her daughter prayed to every day was sitting right there next to her, and she had even eaten the food Shen brought. For a moment, it felt like a dream.
