"Our Ziheng has really grown up and knows how to be filial to Grandma now."
I smiled and said, "Don't worry, Grandma, I will come to see you often!"
Grandma nodded with a smile, "Good, good."
I chatted with Grandma for a while before leaving the nursing home.
As soon as I walked into the hallway, I ran into He Ying, who was there to visit Grandma.
He Ying saw me too.
"Jiang Ziheng?"
I smiled, "What a coincidence."
He Ying glanced at the flowers in my hand and asked, "Are you here to see a friend?"
I nodded, "Yes, I'm here to see Grandma."
He Ying smiled, "What a coincidence, I'm here to see Grandma too."
I was surprised, "You are too?"
He Ying nodded, "Yes, I come to see my grandma every week."
I smiled, "That's really a coincidence."
He Ying looked at me, hesitating to speak.
I asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
He Ying's cheeks turned slightly red as she said, "Jiang Ziheng, how did you do on the Monthly Exam a few days ago?"
I blinked and replied, "It was okay, how about you?"
He Ying scratched her head and said, "I did okay too."
I smiled, "Then let's compare answers."
He Ying was taken aback for a moment before nodding, "Sure."
Ten minutes later, we couldn't help but laugh out loud.
He Ying sighed, "It seems like we both thought of the same answers."
I smiled and nodded, "Heroes see things similarly." He Ying also smiled.
Her smile was beautiful, her eyes curved like the spring sunshine. I couldn't help but be mesmerized.
Seeing me in a daze, He Ying waved her hand in front of my eyes, "Jiang Ziheng, what's wrong with you?"
I came to my senses and quickly shook my head, "It's nothing."
He Ying looked at me suspiciously, "Really?"
I nodded, "Of course it's true!"
He Ying smiled again and said no more.
The results of the Monthly Exam were released.
Upon seeing the report card, my parents displayed long-lost smiles.
Dad patted me on the shoulder, "Ziheng, well done!"
Mom also said with satisfaction, "It seems our Ziheng is truly a top student!"
I smiled shyly, "I just got lucky."
Dad shook his head, "Luck is also part of strength."
As he spoke, he glanced at Mom and sighed, "Time flies so fast. I remember when I was in school, my grades were also among the best, but unfortunately later..."
Mom shot him a glare, "Why bring up the past?"
Dad chuckled, "True enough. Now our Ziheng is even better than I was; I'm just happy!"
Mom laughed too, "Yes, Ziheng is much better than you."
I was curious, "Dad, were you also a top student?"
Dad nodded, "Of course! I was the Top Scholar at our school!"
I was surprised, "Really that impressive?"
Dad smiled, "Of course! If you don't believe me, I'll show you my graduation photo from back then."
Saying this, he really went to the study and brought back the album.
I curiously opened the album.
Dad pointed at a man and said to me, "This is me."
I looked up at Dad.
The man in front of me completely matched my memories of Dad.
My eyes couldn't help but become a little moist.
Dad, it's been so long since I last saw you.
I stared at a woman in the photo and jokingly said to Mom, "Mom, look, Dad is sneaking a peek at another woman."
Mom leaned over to take a look, and her expression suddenly turned ugly.
"This woman... she is Feng Cheng!"
Mom finally remembered.
Feng Cheng is the biological mother of Jiang Zihuan.
Back then, she was in the same delivery room as Mom.
Feng Cheng was a single mother with very poor living conditions.
While Mom was asleep, she swapped me with Jiang Zihuan and threw me, still in swaddling clothes, into a trash bin outside.
If Grandma hadn't saved me, I would have probably died long ago.
