"Hello, everyone watching on TV! New entertainment news, IN celebrity news, all in 100% Entertainment Report." The uplifting voice coming from the TV made me feel energized. HOHO--As clever as I am, I've been staring at the clock during dinner, and now it's just the right time to finish my meal--My favorite entertainment news is starting now!" Duanmu Yuan! Don't forget to keep your promise, okay!" Watching me with wide-eyed, fanatical fascination at the TV screen, Dad gave me a "kind" reminder. "I know, I know!" While very "obediently" answering Dad's "questioning," I reluctantly moved a few steps. But it was only a few steps, after all." Xiao Yuan--" Seeing how reluctant I was to move, Dad drew out his voice to remind me." Oh, I need to use the restroom!" Before Dad could react, I dashed into the bathroom, hehe! I gently closed the door and pressed my ear against the glass. Huh? I still can't hear clearly! Clever as I am! I picked up the tooth cup in the bathroom--placed it against my ear and connected it to the glass. Haha!" The main star of this week's entertainment news is..." Ding ding ding--Ouch! A knock on the door almost made my ears ring! Crap, Dad found me out!" Xiao Yuan, why have you been in there for so long?" "Oh, okay, okay!" I quickly tidied up and calmed myself before walking out of the bathroom. Just then, I bumped into Dad's sharp gaze that could see through everything. Feeling guilty, I slunk back to my room." Rain is promoting a series of activities for his new drama." The host's tempting voice still captivated my attention. Right now, I regret the vow I just made--"Xiao Yuan, have the results of this city-wide exam been released yet?" Mom, while serving me a spoonful of my favorite boiled fish (hahaha!), asked seemingly "intentionally or unintentionally." "Ah" Finally, I got to this question, and my whole scalp started to tingle." Hehe! Yes! I heard this city-wide exam is a big competition among all high school students in the city. The ranking is city-wide, Xiao Yuan. Dad has high hopes for you! Quickly report your scores so Dad can be happy!" Next to me, Dad smiled happily and asked with great anticipation. Woom woom--Thinking back to every night the exam results were announced, it was always my happiest nights. My parents' satisfied smiles made me feel like all my hard work was meaningful! But, "I... I think I got... the... last place?" Haha! I knew my Xiao Yuan would never let me down!" Always full of confidence in me, Dad blurted out, "I only got the... last place?" Seeing my hesitant demeanor, Mom stood up nervously, her spoon almost falling to the ground. "Forget it. There are many outstanding students among all high school students in the city. You can stay in the top ranks at school." "Mom!!" I glared at Mom, blushing all over my face. My goodness! Mom actually doesn't think highly of me! Although it was a comforting remark, I still wish to be expected more. Hmph! You see, I, Duanmu Yuan, am a girl who excels in both academics and character. I possess an incredibly wise mind and a strong will, and I am also an undeniably all-around queen! As a genius girl, I must believe I have energy stronger than light. No matter what challenges I face, I am not afraid! Whether it's major or minor exams, sports, or arts and culture, to me--it's all a piece of cake! But even genius girls make mistakes!!" It's nothing!" I glanced at Dad and Mom before finally struggling to say the truth, "I got second place in the city-wide exam!" "Second place?" Mom immediately relaxed and sat back down on the stool. "Not bad! That's second place in the city!" "How did you do in the last place?" Dad looked at me with a somewhat serious expression." He... got one point higher than me" Seeing Dad's serious expression, I felt lost. Since childhood, Dad has taught me to be an excellent student and to strive for the top ranks." It's only one point!" Mom gently served me more boiled fish and comforted me, "Just try harder next time!" "I" Looking at the mountain of food piled in my bowl and feeling Dad's meaningful gaze, for some reason, a sense of guilt in my heart was shrouded in thick fog." You still need to work harder." Dad adjusted his tone and said to me very "objectively." "I... I swear I will get second place next time! I... I swear I won't watch TV, not even my favorite entertainment news, until I get first place!" Facing Dad's gaze, I impulsively made a heavy oath without choosing my words carefully! P10-12
