Chapter 1387: Accidentally Came in First in the City

“Is your friend a guy or a girl? How could they give you knives as a present?” Wen Min looked at Yun Jian in surprise as well but she did not mean ill. She was simply a little stunned.

Yun Jian turned to look at Wen Min. She had heard from Qin Yirou that Wen Min was very kind. Although she was both the boss and the manager of the florist, she had never mistreated her employees and would even frequently treat them to meals. When she took into consideration that her employees were all women in their thirties and forties who had to rush home to cook for their children or husband, she would ask them to call their family along for the meal.

Shopkeepers like her were rare nowadays—extremely scarce, actually.

“A girl. We’ve been through life and death together,” Yun Jian replied parting her cherry lips. Her expression was stern when she spoke and did not look like she was joking.

Liu Shan had picked up all the knives that her daughter had scattered to the floor speedily and straightened up. She had been paying attention to Yun Jian since just now, so when she heard what the latter said, she spoke without waiting for Wen Min to reply, “Oh ho, been through life and death? What dire situations could girls your age have gone through? You probably haven’t even stepped foot in the real society yet. Been through life and death? Young people like you should speak more realistically!”

Liu Shan who made her daughter drop Yun Jian’s bag had thought that she had the upper hand but had not expected Yun Jian to threaten her like that. She spoiled her youngest daughter, so she had dashed over to pick up the knives for Yun Jian, afraid that she would harm her daughter.

The sarcastic tone of Liu Shan’s response was enough for the others to hear her displeasure toward Yun Jian, but the girl ignored her, so the atmosphere took a slump swiftly.

“Ha, get ready to finish work. Go pack up. Let’s go to the restaurant first. We can have lunch now!” Ultimately, it was Wen Min who spoke up to make the suggestion when she felt that there was something wrong in the air.

Everyone made a sound of assent hearing Wen Min while Liu Shan who felt that she got nothing out of the situation took her son and daughter to the restaurant first.

“Mom, let’s go too,” Yun Jian went to tell Qin Yirou after she got up and zipped her bag.

“Mn. I’ll go wash my hands first!” Qin Yirou nodded and headed toward the backdoor of the florist.

The restaurant was only a regular restaurant with round tables. Since there were quite a number of employees in the florist, Wen Min asked for two tables.

By the time everyone got seated, Yun Jian realized that Liu Shan and her children were sharing a table with her and Qin Yirou. The owner, Wen Min, was at their table as well.

Yun Jian kept her eyes down without saying anything. The rest of the others were soon engaged in a casual chatter at the table.

In a short while, the topic of conversation went to the grades of their children.

Liu Shan who held a grudge could not wait to expose Yun Jian’s weak academic performance to everyone. Of course, that was only her own assumption. After all, she doubted why a girl who had excellent grades would study in the military school.

While one had to score well to get into a military school, Liu Shan remembered that Qin Yirou had mentioned Yun Jian being an internally decided candidate of the military school. This must mean that Yun Jian’s grades were poor!

“My son’s school is one of the middle ranking ones. He was off his game back in the Senior High School Entrance Examination but he’s still gotten himself into a regular senior high,” Liu Shan first boasted before she turned to look at Qin Yirou and asked, “Yirou, your daughter’s grades must be decent when she’s in the military school, right? How’s her Senior High School Entrance Examination result?”

Despite her question, Liu Shan thought that there was no way Yun Jian’s result was close to being decent when she got in through an internal decision.

For an adult this age to like comparing their children’s grades and think that having good grades meant having a bright future, they had no idea how utterly foolish they were!

“My result is average,” Yun Jian replied lightly, not letting Qin Yirou answer.

Liu Shan grinned wider at her answer. Before it could split her face in half, though, what Yun Jian continued to say shocked all the adults there who were fit to be parents.

“My Senior High School Entrance Examination result? I just accidentally came in first in the city.”
