Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
âYes, Mr. Zhou, I wonât be attending tomorrowâs seminar. My wifeâs university entrance exam results are outâshe scored 688 points, making her the top scorer in our province.â

The next morning, Gu Zi woke up early. She had planned to eat breakfast before heading upstairs to get readyâapply her makeup, change clothes, and spritz on the expensive perfume Su Shen had gifted her. With all this, she would be glowing when she stepped out!
She didnât need to worry about breakfast, though. When she woke up, Su Shen was nowhere to be seen, and she immediately knew he must be handling her breakfast. Sure enough, when she entered the dining room, she was greeted by the sight of a steaming breakfast spread.
In the center of the table was a beautifully crafted cake, with the words âCongratulations on Your Academic Successâ written in bright red fruit jam.
Gu Zi smiled. The older manâs attention to detail was undeniable; it was a thoughtful gesture, and she felt a swell of emotion. She almost wanted to give him a hug.
She looked around and spotted his tall figure by the phone. She walked over, greeting him cheerfully, âGood morning, darling. Who are you on the phone with?â
Su Shen glanced at her, then replied, âYour parents. The line just connected. Youâre in timeâcome and share the good news with them, Gu Zi.â
Gu Zi, still groggy from sleep, hadnât thought about these details yet, but Su Shen had already taken care of them. She took the phone with a smile. âMom, Dad, yes, my results are out. I scored 688 points, first in the province. Thereâs no doubt Iâll get into Imperial Capital University. If you have time, you should come visit us, and we can celebrate together.â
There was a pause on the other end of the line, followed by a stunned silence. Then, her mother, An Yun, couldnât contain her excitement. â688 points? My daughter, I knew you were smart, but I didnât realize you were this smart! Oh my God, this is incredible! Weâre packing now and will take a taxi over as soon as we can.â
Gu Zi chatted with An Yun for a few more moments before hanging up. Just as she was about to sit down to breakfast, her phone rang again. It was Principal Zhang from Renhe. âGu Zi, do you need me to send a car to pick you up? Todayâs your day to shine, donât be late!â
Gu Zi quickly declined, replying politely, âThank you, but my husband has some free time today and will drive me to school. I appreciate your concern, Principal.â
She hung up, but no sooner had she done so than her phone rang again. The constant stream of calls was relentless, and her hunger was starting to catch up with her.
Sensing her frustration, Su Shen smoothly removed the phoneâs receiver, silencing the interruptions, and gently guided Gu Zi to the table. âLetâs eat first. Donât worry about those calls.â
As they sat down to breakfast, the kids trickled in one by one, and Gao Ming, who often came over to eat, joined them. The family settled in for a lively, familiar meal. The little cake didnât entice anyoneâwhy would they settle for something store-bought when Gu Ziâs cooking was so much better?
After a few bites, Gu Zi cleared her throat and announced, âKids, I have some exciting news to share with you. See this cake? Itâs a gift from your father to me, celebrating my high score on the university entrance exam. I scored 688 points.â
She couldnât help but feel a little smugâher kids were already so impressive, but now she had a score to match. Surely, she deserved a moment to shine, too.
The kids, of course, werenât clueless. They understood what the score meant, and their reactions ranged from surprise to admiration. Su Li, ever the earnest one, was particularly impressed. âMom, youâre even better than Brother! He didnât score 688!â
Su Li, unaware that the total points for elementary school and the university exam werenât the same, was astonished. To him, it seemed like his mom was the smartest in the family. Su Bing, on the other hand, knew better but still couldnât help but praise her. âMom, youâre our role model!â
Gao Ming, clearly impressed, chimed in, âAuntie, I heard from my dad that this yearâs exam was particularly difficult, but you still managed to score so high. Youâre amazingâtruly the best!â
Su Le, holding her spoon, looked slightly confused but joined in with a simple, heartfelt, âMom is super awesome. Lele loves Mom!â
âŠ
The family enjoyed the cake, celebrating the good news. Once Gu Zi was dressed and ready, she felt there was no harm in arriving earlyâbetter to be early than late. The whole family set off for the school together.
Gao Ming even ran back home to ask his grandmother for permission to accompany Gu Zi. Naturally, he got the go-ahead, and the Gao family was equally overjoyed at the news.
Meanwhile, across town, the Gu family had already made a call to Lin Miaoâs class advisor. Zhang Mei was feeling anxiousâsheâd heard that the exam had been especially tough this year, and if Lin Miao didnât do well, it would be embarrassing. She was planning to check the score with the advisor first. If it didnât meet the college admission requirements, she wouldnât even let Lin Miao go to school.
