Chapter 85
: Mother Jiang was extremely excited about the [Fallen Black Robe] and the [Hand of Plunde
After saying goodbye to Luo Ningyan.
Jiang Yuan returned to his aunt's house.
Before even entering, I could sense the presence of some powerful individuals nearby; they must be from the Patrol Division.
It seems that Yan Runan did indeed keep his promise to him and protected the safety of his aunt's family.
Push open the door.
"Snapped!"
The cannons roared, and colorful ribbons fluttered in the air.
"Brother Yuan!!"
Mo Xixi rushed over and threw herself into Jiang Yuan's arms, excitedly shouting, "How does it feel to be the top scorer in the country?"
Tao Yufeng and Mo Lingfeng, holding colorful sticks, looked at Jiang Yuan with smiles on their faces.
"Xiao Yuan, congratulations! We already know." Mo Lingfeng exclaimed, "First place in the college entrance exam! I never even dared to dream of that."
"Your child...you've really made us proud! Our family is so incredibly lucky!" Tao Yufeng said, her eyes filled with tears and her voice trembling with sobs. "If your parents knew, they would be so happy."
"Auntie, Uncle..."
Jiang Yuan scratched his face. "Isn't this a bit too much?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? This is the top scorer in the college entrance examination, the number one in the country! If Miss Yan hadn't persuaded me, I would have hung up a banner and let everyone in the neighborhood know," Tao Yufeng said, wiping her eyes.
Jiang Yuan looked at Yan Runan, who was walking out of his room, and was speechless.
"Why are you just showing up here like it's nothing?"
"Didn't you ask me to help take care of your aunt's family? I've been seriously protecting them."
She said in a serious tone, moving closer to Jiang Yuan and whispering in his ear:
"We made a promise, you can't go back on your word, top scorer in the college entrance exam."
"Alright, I agree to join Shenwu University, okay?"
"Great, credits in hand. Junior, call me 'senior' so I can hear it."
"..."
……
night.
His excited and happy aunt and her family prepared a grand celebration for him, with an incredibly lavish spread of food.
Yan Runan also got involved.
Uncle Mo Lingfeng took out his treasured wine, which he had kept for ten years, and pulled Jiang Yuan and Yan Runan together to toast each other.
Tao Yufeng laughed and cried at the same time. She wanted to call Jiang Yuan's parents on the spot to tell them the good news, but she was crying and laughing on the phone and couldn't even speak clearly.
This left Mr. and Mrs. Jiang completely bewildered.
After Tao Yufeng hung up the phone.
Jiang's mother called Jiang Yuan, puzzled, to ask him what had happened.
Jiang Yuan went to the balcony, leaned on the railing and enjoyed the breeze. "It's nothing, it's just that my aunt drank too much."
"Oh, Xiaoyuan, have your college entrance exam results come out? How did you do?" Tao Chunru asked, her voice a little nervous.
"They're out."
Jiang Yuan smiled brightly and said, "Mom, I got first place."
After a few seconds of silence, Tao Chunru's cautious yet secretly joyful voice rang out.
"First? First in the whole class? Xiaoyuan, you're not lying to Mom, are you just trying to make me happy?"
"Why would I lie to you? Besides, I wasn't just first in the class, I was first in the whole country. Didn't you see my name at the top of the leaderboard?" Jiang Yuan looked at the night sky and laughed.
There was a long silence on the other end of the phone.
"Hello, Mom? Are you listening?"
A gasp of shock rang out, followed by Tao Chunru's incredulous voice.
"Was that really you?!"
"You really got first place!"
"Wait, wait a minute!"
"In other words..."
"The top scorer in the national exam is my son?!"
"Yeah, how about it? Your son is amazing, isn't he?"
"Amazing! Absolutely incredible!!" Tao Chunru exclaimed excitedly. "Am I dreaming?!"
"Don't get too excited."
"How could I not be excited?! You brat!! How did you secretly become number one in the province, no, the whole country, without telling us a word? Are you even my son?!"
"Genuine, guaranteed. Hey, I just wanted to give you guys a surprise."
"I still can't believe it... Does your dad know?"
"I texted him. Oh, and I'll pick you up in Beijiang City tomorrow."
"Okay... be careful..."
The phone hangs up.
Jiang Yuan turned his gaze away from the night sky, leaned against the railing, and felt the night breeze. He saw Mo Xixi excitedly dancing on the sofa inside the house, and his aunt and uncle with happy smiles on their faces.
A slight smile crept onto his face.
The long-lost peace and tranquility, free from the disturbance of ferocious beasts, brought Jiang Yuan peace and relaxation to his heart.
……
the other side.
The nurses' dormitory at Beijiang First Hospital.
After hanging up the phone, Tao Chunru looked at Jiang Yuan's photos online, pacing back and forth excitedly, repeatedly muttering, "My son is number one in the country... my son... Xiao Yuan is number one in the country...?"
An indescribable emotion surged within my chest.
Crystalline tears streamed down her cheeks.
She covered her face and wept with joy, letting out soft sobs.
There is almost nothing that makes parents happier and more excited than hearing this news.
…………
After the celebration ended.
Yan Runan took his leave.
In the dead of night.
After replying to Ji Feiyue and Xu Yihan's congratulatory messages, Jiang Yuan stayed alone in her room, which she hadn't visited in a long time, and sorted out her gains and achievements from this college entrance examination.
It was so generous that even the traditional backpack was completely full.
"Let's check what we got after killing the Yin Master's clone first."
Jiang Yuan pondered this and went to investigate.

"An awakening stone that can awaken a second talent, I never thought it could drop such a good thing. You can't buy it on the market even if you have money."
Jiang Yuan smiled brightly.
Both the Fallen Robe and the Hand of Plunder are undoubtedly extremely useful.
Click directly to learn and equip.
"Next is..."
Jiang Yuan took out the mysterious treasure chest given to him by Bai Huang.
[Open?]
"The award for first place nationwide shouldn't be disappointing, right?"
"Activate".
