When Gu Zi spoke these words, she was acutely aware that given the normal academic standards of the elementary school, no matter how much the two brothers studied now, they would not be able to match the level of their peers who had been attending the school from the start.

However, Gu Zi still felt compelled to say this. She believed that by setting high expectations, the boys would strive to meet them. Sometimes, the drive that came from ignorance could be a powerful motivator. For now, all they needed to do was focus on their studies.

Even if they failed to meet these expectations, it wouldn’t matter. It would serve as a valuable lesson in failure and help them understand the gap between them and their peers. Then, she could encourage them to slowly catch up.

However, the brothers could not possibly know Gu Zi’s true intentions. After hearing their mother’s words, Su Bing felt that she was absolutely right. The new school was bound to be challenging, and he would have to become stronger to keep up. He resolved to follow his study plan diligently during the upcoming vacation, doing everything he could to prepare for the school’s level exam.

Su Li, on the other hand, was filled with a passionate resolve. After hearing his mother’s words, he felt a surge of energy and determination. He thumped his chest and declared, “Mother, I will definitely pass the school’s level exam. I’m going to start studying right now!”

With that, he dashed upstairs, leaving Gu Zi watching him with a sense of urgency reminiscent of the days leading up to a major exam. Su Bing, more composed, slowly followed his brother upstairs. His pace was faster than usual, reflecting his newfound determination.

Gu Zi watched them go with a sense of satisfaction. She called after them, “No matter what, I wish you the best in catching up with your new classmates!”

Meanwhile, in another part of town, two men and a little girl were leaving the clothing section of Xinghua Department Store. The man in front was cold and aloof, paying no heed to the man behind him who was carrying the girl and shouting after him. He walked with a straight back, carrying several paper bags emblazoned with the words “Xinghua Women’s Clothing,” drawing curious glances from passersby.

A young woman couldn’t help but gossip, “I’ve heard about men dating men in our country, and even adopting children from relatives. I never thought I’d actually see it. Who do you think the clothes are for?”

The man beside her chuckled knowingly, “Isn’t it obvious? They’re for the man carrying the child. The one in front is too masculine and cold to be wearing women’s clothing.”

Jin Long, carrying the little girl, heard their conversation clearly. He was annoyed but held his tongue for fear of scaring the child. He had endured many such comments throughout the day, but this one was particularly irksome. He wondered why he had agreed to accompany Su Shen on this shopping trip.

They had spent the entire day shopping for women’s clothing, without a single glance at the men’s section. Jin Long was baffled. Didn’t Su Shen understand that they were supposed to be shopping for him?

After leaving the clothing section, Su Shen headed towards a pet shop selling goldfish. Jin Long followed him into the shop, finally catching up with Su Shen. He panted, “You ignored me, fine. But you left your daughter behind too. We’ve spent all 300 yuan, and you’re still looking at fish. You’re not thinking of buying a goldfish, are you?”

Su Shen looked at the goldfish swimming in the beautiful aquarium, his expression serious and his tone cold. “Can’t I buy a goldfish? Gu Zi said we could keep fish in the pond at the front of the house. I think she would be happy if I brought some goldfish home.”

Jin Long looked at Su Shen, his face a picture of bewilderment. He reminded him, “Boss Su, this money was given to me by your wife to buy clothes for you. You haven’t bought a single piece of clothing. How am I supposed to explain this to her?”

Su Shen ignored him and turned to ask the shopkeeper about the price of the goldfish. Soon, he was holding two bags filled with colorful, lively goldfish.

The sight of the goldfish quickly caught the attention of Su Le. She patted Jin Long’s shoulder and watched the fish with delight, babbling incoherently as if greeting the fish. Her cheerful demeanor contrasted sharply with Jin Long’s worried expression.
