Afterward, there had indeed been quite a few parents of junior high school students who had gotten Qiao Nan to tutor their children. Qiao Dongliang had heard about it. All the children whom Qiao Nan had tutored had not only made great progress in their English, but their scores had also improved by leaps and bounds.

Qiao Zijin had also gotten herself a Level Four certification much later while she had been in university. Since then, neither of his daughters had done much else. As such, Qiao Dongliang had thought that Level Four was the highest possible grade.

Now that he heard that Qiao Nan had gone for a Level Six exam, Qiao Dongliang did not know how to feel. He had a feeling that Qiao Nan would definitely pass the exam as long as she went for it.

As a mere junior high school graduate, his younger daughter had a higher grade than his elder daughter, who was a university graduate! That was ridiculous! The Qiao family had spent so much money on Qiao Zijin, and it seemed as though all that money had gone to waste. “How did it go? Was it difficult?”

“It was actually easy.” The Level Six grade was truly not difficult for Qiao Nan.. Even before going for the exam, Qiao Nan had not revised much. After seeing the exam paper, Qiao Nan knew that she could have produced one that was much more difficult than that. As for the listening exam, Qiao Nan wondered if she had brought her experiences from her dream into reality. Her listening abilities in English had become on par with that in Chinese.

As such, it went without question that this exam was no problem for Qiao Nan at all. In fact, she might even have passed with flying colors.

“So simple?” Hearing Qiao Nan’s tone, Qiao Dongliang was even more surprised. Qiao Nan made it seem as though it was as normal as eating a meal. “If it’s really that easy, I’ll let... Nothing. Oh right, how have you and the children been? I sent you another parcel. Remember to get someone to collect it. Don’t collect it yourself.”

“Dad, you don’t have to send me anything. I don’t lack anything. I’m not even picky about my food nowadays. Rest more if you have the time and spend the money on yourself.” Qiao Nan had never expected that the money that she gave Qiao Dongliang every month would be used on her and the children.

Nothing was more important than Qiao Dongliang living a peaceful and healthy life.

“Don’t worry about those things. I know what to do. How could I shortchange you when you’re so filial? You know that the cost of living in Ping Cheng is not very high. Besides, I still have my pension. Apart from my meals, I don’t have anything else to spend my money on. You should pay more attention to your health. I’ll visit you during your confinement period.”

“Oh, alright. Dad, do you have anything else?” After her meal and sitting and chatting, Qiao Nan felt especially sleepy. It was time for her afternoon nap. Pregnant women had to get their fill of sleep. Qiao Nan was already yawning as she talked to Qiao Dongliang, who could sense Qiao Nan’s exhaustion even through the phone. “Are you sleepy? Hurry and hang up, then. I just wanted to know if you’ve been well. Go have a nap. I won’t disturb you.”

“Alright, Dad. Bye.” Qiao Nan could not hold on anymore and her eyelids were almost glued shut.

The moment Qiao Dongliang asked her to hang up, Qiao Nan did so without a moment of hesitation.

“Nan Nan, let me help you.” The auntie went up to Qiao Nan and helped her back to her room.

Now that Qiao Nan’s stomach had grown much bigger, she was not as agile as she had been. The pregnancy had been kind on Qiao Nan thus far, apart from the fact that she was in need of much more sleep. Just like now, Qiao Nan was so sleepy that she could not even open her eyes. It was because of this that Miao Jing was worried about Qiao Nan continuing her studies.

At home, there were three people who could take care of Qiao Nan, but who would take care of Qiao Nan in school?

Because of this, the Zhai family had remodeled the room on the first floor into Qiao Nan’s room for the time being before she gave birth. In that case, Qiao Nan would not have to walk far to return to her room once she got sleepy. That would also save Qiao Nan the trouble of climbing the stairs to return to her room.

Qiao Nan was only five months pregnant, but because she was pregnant with three babies, she could not even see her toes when she looked down. As such, Zhai Yaohui and Miao Jing were frightened every time they saw Qiao Nan climbing the stairs.

Miao Jing expressed that she could not afford to be frightened at her age.

That was why Zhai Yaohui had come up with the idea of moving Qiao Nan’s room from the second floor to the ground floor to save everyone some worry.

“Dad, why did you hang up? I haven’t spoken to Nan Nan and you didn’t talk to Nan Nan about me either.” The moment Qiao Nan was helped back to her room, she fell asleep immediately once she lay down. On the other hand, there was no peace and quiet in the Qiao family. Qiao Zijin flared up at Qiao Dongliang. “Dad, why didn’t you tell Nan Nan that I was the one who paid for most of the things in that parcel that you sent over?”

Her dad had better not try to steal her credit and lie to Qiao Nan that he had paid for all those things alone.

She had never expected her dad to get shrewder as he aged. She had always thought that she resembled her mom while Qiao Nan resembled her dad. They were both too honest. After forty years, the only honest person in the Qiao family was Qiao Nan.

Qiao Dongliang had been a little reluctant to hang up. If not for the fact that Qiao Nan had been exhausted, he would have continued the conversation. It was true that Qiao Dongliang liked sons, but he liked children who studied well even more.

When he had been younger, it had truly been too burdensome sending both his children to school. Besides, Qiao Nan had ‘taken the initiative’ and had given in. Of course, even without Ding Jiayi’s influence, Qiao Dongliang had already been slightly biased toward Qiao Zijin based solely on the fact that she was the most highly educated in the Qiao family.

After Qiao Zijin graduated from university, she acted as though she had finally finished an arduous task and no longer touched anything related to academics ever since then. On the other hand, Qiao Nan’s living conditions had improved after marriage, and with such an opportunity, she had taken the chance to sign up for all sorts of courses and exams.
