It's a two-hour high-speed rail journey from the provincial capital to Muzhou. After Wang Chen got off the station, he took a taxi directly to his father Wang Zhenghai's workplace.
He has been to Muzhou many times before and is not very unfamiliar with this place.
Wang Chen's father, Wang Zhenghai, originally worked in the Wen County Industrial and Commercial Bureau and was part of the system, while his mother, Chen Xiaomei, worked as an accountant in a state-owned enterprise.
Before Wang Chen was ten years old, the living conditions at home were still very good. Lao Wang was neither corrupt nor corrupt. His salary, bonuses and benefits added up to one year were more than enough.
Coupled with Wang's mother's income, it is more than enough to raise Wang Chen's child.
However, when he was ten years old, Chen Xiaomei unexpectedly became pregnant. By the time she found out, she had been pregnant for about three months.
And she’s pregnant with twins!
If you only get pregnant with one child, your parents will be so cruel that they might abort it.
But two children...
In the end, both of them resigned and paid a large fine. Coupled with the expenses of raising two children, the family's financial situation immediately became much tighter.
Fortunately, Wang Zhenghai joined the Muzhou Guangyuan Group through the introduction of his comrades.
Chen Xiaomei raised her twins in her hometown in Wen County while doing accounting for small companies, and she managed to survive.
Otherwise, how could he afford Wang Chen’s tuition fee of 30,000 yuan a year!
But by this time next year, there was a problem within Guangyuan Group, which implicated Wang Zhenghai.
The innocent Wang Zhenghai almost faced jail and spent a lot of money to get out. Moreover, because of his bad reputation, he could not find a suitable job for a long time.
At that time, the Wang family borrowed hundreds of thousands from relatives and friends, and Wang Chen's tuition fee for studying at No. 5 Middle School in the provincial capital was borrowed from his uncle.
It was from that time on that Wang Chen suddenly woke up and worked hard to become stronger.
It wasn't until he graduated from college and started working that his family's debts were paid off, and life gradually got better.
Wang Chen feels very ashamed when he thinks about it now.
In the first two years of high school, he didn't know how hard his parents worked. He was even jealous of his mother's care of his younger siblings. He didn't study hard and wasted his best time on games!
While Wang Chen was thinking, the taxi stopped in front of Guangyuan Building.
After paying the fare, Wang Chen took out his mobile phone and checked that the time was right before dialing Wang Zhenghai's number.
The call was quickly answered: "Xiaochen..."
Hearing this familiar voice, Wang Chen's mood is difficult to describe in words: "Dad, I'm downstairs in your company."
The voice coming from the mobile phone immediately became joyful: "You kid, you didn't even say a word when you came back!"
Not long after, Wang Chen saw Wang Zhenghai hurriedly coming out of the lobby on the first floor of Guangyuan Building!
How many years?
Ever since he traveled to the world of cultivating immortals, Wang Chen had always thought that he would never be able to see his family again in this life.
However, fate gave him a chance to make up for his regrets.
Now that he saw his father again, Wang Chen's will, which had already been tempered to be as strong as a rock, became fragile at this moment.
"Xiao Chen!"
Wang Zhenghai is a middle-aged man with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and good facial features. His temperament is elegant and he usually speaks in a gentle voice.
Seeing Wang Chen, he smiled very happily: "Your school is going to have summer vacation so soon? When did you arrive? You haven't had lunch yet. You just happened to have something to eat in our company restaurant..."
While saying this, Wang Zhenghai snatched the suitcase pulled by Wang Chen.
Patting Wang Chen's shoulder, Wang's father looked at his son carefully and said in surprise: "You have grown taller!"
of course.
In the month after returning, Wang Chen insisted on exercising every day to strengthen his body, repeatedly using spiritual energy to cleanse his internal organs, limbs and bones. Not only did his physical strength greatly strengthen, but his height also increased by five or six centimeters.
This is the result of his deliberate control, otherwise it would be easy to jump ten centimeters a month.
Wang's father hadn't seen Wang Chen in half a year, so he was just happy about his son's change, but he was not surprised or suspicious.
After all, boys at this age can eat and grow, and they change every day.
Wang Chen chuckled: "Of course, your son can grow to 1.9 meters!"
"That's too high."
Wang Zhenghai shook his head: "One meter eighty-five meters is enough, let's go, let's eat first!"
Guangyuan Group is a large enterprise with assets of over one billion. It owns a thirty-story building in the center of Muzhou. It has complete internal supporting facilities and its own restaurant.
Wang Zhenghai took Wang Chen to the restaurant on the third floor of the building and asked the latter to find a seat first and then go get the food.
Wang Zhenghai's colleagues saw him and came over to say hello: "Old Wang, is this your son? Not bad!"
Dad Wang smiled and responded one by one.
After the food was placed on the table and Wang Zhenghai also sat down, Wang Chen calmly took out the report card from his backpack: "Dad, this is my report card for the final exam, which is from the city's unified examination."
Wang Zhenghai quickly took it and was stunned after taking one look.
The total score is 1018, ranking 1 in the class, 1 in the grade, and 27 in the city!
Is this the result that your son got in the exam?
Wang Zhenghai rubbed his eyes subconsciously and looked again carefully.
That's for sure.
He was so surprised that he couldn't speak.
Wang Chen's academic performance in junior high school is pretty good, otherwise he wouldn't even be eligible to spend money to study at No. 5 Middle School in the provincial capital.
But Wang Zhenghai knows very well that the provincial capital has the best educational resources and the teachers' teaching level is also the highest. Wang Chen went to high school in the past, and if he could keep up with the average score of local high school students, he could afford the annual tuition fee of 30,000 yuan.
Compared with Wang Chen and a real academic master, the gap is still quite big.
Unexpectedly, Wang Chen actually got the first place in the fifth middle school and the 27th place in the city.
If this is the college entrance examination results, you can choose from several top universities in the country!
"Lao Wang, what's wrong with you?"
The colleague sitting next to him came over and took a look at the report card, and was also surprised: "Ah, Lao Wang, your son's academic performance is so good. I remember he studied in the provincial capital, right? That's incredible!"
As soon as this colleague yelled, more people came to join in the fun, and Wang Chen's transcript was circulated everywhere.
Knowing that Wang Chen was studying in the provincial capital, Wang Zhenghai's colleagues were either envious, shocked, or congratulated.
Especially those whose children are poor at studying, their eyes will be red even more!
In the end, even Dad Wang’s boss was alerted and came over to say a few words of congratulations.
After all, such achievements already belong to the Qingbei Reserves.
In front of everyone, Wang Chen took out his two certificates and the bonus given by the school.
"Dad, this is my scholarship, totaling fifteen thousand yuan."
"In addition, we no longer need to pay the loan fee for the second year of high school. The 30,000 yuan we paid last year, the school said, will be returned to us in the form of bonuses after this year's entrance examination."
Wang Chen was showing off, eating fruit in front of everyone.
It's very superficial, but this is the effect he wants!
