"Go ahead and envy, hate, whatever you like, I can handle it!"
Kang Li chuckled softly.
"Congratulations! Ruirui’s amazing!"
Because of Kang Li’s words, Wu Yue couldn’t help laughing too. She said, "Are you going to treat us? If you are, don’t forget to let me know."
"We’re getting ready to celebrate for the kid. The date’s set for August sixth. If you’re free that day, just come to..."
After giving the hotel name and address, Kang Li chatted a bit more with Wu Yue, and then they ended the call.
Seeing Wu Yue put down the receiver, Xiao Jin asked, "That kid is the top scorer in the college entrance exam?" He was making sure.
"You should have heard it. Ruirui is not only the top scorer in the college entrance exam, he’s the national top scorer. His score is only eight points short of full marks."
Since Xiao Jin had already been promoted to deputy director of the station, Wu Yue addressed him with a respectful form of address.
"That’s an excellent result!"
Xiao Jin smiled and asked, "What date is Comrade Kang planning to host the banquet? I’ll go over and offer my congratulations then."
Wu Yue didn’t hide it. She told him the date and hotel address Kang Li had given her.
"Thank you!"
Xiao Jin stood up. "Let’s go, I’ll treat you to lunch."
"You’re too kind."
Wu Yue shook her head and declined politely. "I’ve already made plans with a few colleagues. We’ll be going to the cafeteria together in a bit."
Xiao Jin said, "I see. Then I’ll treat you another time."
Wu Yue smiled and didn’t respond to that.
Xiao Jin left and went back to his office. His excitement was hard to hide as he picked up the phone and dialed.
"Hello? Who is this?"
"Mom, it’s me. Is Dad home? I’ve got some good news to tell you both!"
That’s right, Xiao Jin was calling his father and mother, planning to tell the two elders the good news he’d just pried out of Wu Yue.
"Your dad went over to the Xi Family’s place."
His mother said it casually, then asked, "What’s the good news you’re talking about?"
