Chapter 1486: Chapter 715: The Strongest Test Accompanying Group_2

Yan Wenhai was carrying a thick novel with its cover flipped to the back, so the title couldn’t be seen. Yan Chao, on the other hand, had a set of toy bow and arrows on his back and his pockets were bulging with snacks, all set out like he was excited to go hunting in the mountains—if his wife weren’t holding his stationery bag, this family would look more like they were going out for a picnic rather than accompanying someone to an exam.

It took Yan Wenhai only five minutes to drive the van to the vicinity of the school. There were already quite a few parents there accompanying their kids for the exams, and students waiting to enter the exam hall. When this family parked on the side of the road, unloading tables, chairs, and tea sets from their vehicle, everyone was speechlessly amazed.

At that time, not many examinees had their parents accompany them, with only a minority of students from town having family members come along. None had brought a whole squad, from the elderly to the young, like they did—let alone with the air of going on a picnic trek.

After finding a spot under a tree where they’d be shaded regardless of how the sun moved, Xiao Fei was about to help set up the table when Lin Xiumei hurried him, "You quickly get to the school, walk around early to ease your nerves. Son, do your best!"

Xu Xiaoyan on the side was giving encouragement with her eyes, just as Yanfei’s father stooped down to take the table from his hand to start setting it up.

Lin Xiumei was dissatisfied, "Your son’s about to go into the examination room, and you don’t have anything to say?"

"Oh!" Yan Wenhai looked up at Xiao Fei. "Do well in your test, and it’s okay if you don’t get in. After all, even if you do nothing for the rest of your life from now, you won’t have to worry about living a hard life."

Lin Xiumei grew even more dissatisfied, "Is that supposed to be encouragement? Can’t you say something nicer?"

"Mom and Dad, don’t worry, there will be no problem with the test." Xiao Fei helplessly took the stationery from his wife. "Rest assured, I will definitely get in; it’s a piece of cake for me. Xiaochao, you be good outside, I’ll come out and play with you in a bit..."

After saying that, he turned and left.

When he was about to reach the school gate, he heard a few words of conversation behind him.

"Old Yan, do you think Xiao Fei can appreciate our concern? Maybe we seem too relaxed?" Lin Xiumei asked Yan Wenhai.

"I told you not to be too tense, didn’t say you should prepare like you’re going on a trip!" Yan Wenhai complained. "Forget it, don’t think too much about it. I don’t think he’ll be nervous anyway."

"You’re complaining about me, but you were the one who said we should relax a bit," Liu Xiumei muttered. "I won’t argue with you for Xiao Xing’s sake. Come, Xiao Xing, let’s play checkers, and let them father and son go do their own thing..."

Hearing this, Xiao Fei didn’t know what to say. Holding his stationery, he looked at the towering school gate and stepped inside.

Entering the examination room, listening to the invigilator’s instructions, distributing test papers, checking test papers, writing names... It was all set procedure that even students who had never experienced it had been reminded of every day by their teachers until their ears were calloused with it.

Then he glanced at the essay topic, planning to mull it over while working on the earlier questions...

The essay topic was quite interesting, titled: What if memories could be transplanted?

The person who came up with this essay topic was a very great and visionary individual. Years later, based on this essay prompt, countless web novels were written... Some received memories of ancient immortals, others got memories of scientists from the future space age, and some even directly received their own memories from a hundred years later, and so on.

Of course, there’s an even more straightforward method; just carry your grandpa around with you. Too lazy to recall memories on your own, you could just ask him anything anytime, and he could even remind you about things proactively, which was a thousand times more convenient than obtaining a piece of miraculous memory—not to mention, you could chat and shoot the breeze when there was nothing else to do.

When Xiao Fei saw this topic, his first thought was if he could transplant the memory of a ship’s commander, wouldn’t that save him the trouble of studying and observing how to steer a big ship every day?

Of course, the main task now is the exam; there’s no time to think too much about it. He’ll consider it more after he finishes the questions.

The spelling in the front part was very simple; he had memorized the dictionary. The comprehension of idioms in the middle part was effortless; he had an idiom dictionary in his mind. As for reading comprehension and the like, it was basically the same old stuff; just write a bit more, many of which he had seen before. It was really simple.

In the blink of an eye, he was already fervently writing his essay!

Outside, Xu Xiaoyan was absentmindedly playing checkers with Lin Xiumei, clearly also a bit distracted as a mother. Their game of checkers was a mess. It wasn’t until Xu Xiaoyan raised her hand and discovered there were no more moves to make that Lin Xiumei came back to reality, exclaiming in surprise: "Oh my, you’ve won already..."

Next to them, Yan Wenhai couldn’t help but chuckle and put down the book in his hand. He called out to Yan Chao, who was off practicing archery aimed at trees in the distance, then he bowed his head again to continue reading.

Yan Wenhai wasn’t enjoying his work in the factory; sometimes he couldn’t be bothered to manage things and simply immersed his mind in reading books to make up for the regret of not having many books to read when he was young.

It wasn’t that he was unhappy because of difficulties caused by others. On the contrary, everyone was overly polite to him. Not to mention casual interactions, even when he occasionally offered an opinion during meetings, all the leaders in the factory would nod as if his words were extremely profound and farsighted suggestions.

Unknowingly, Cow Flower Company had become a heavy hitter, a major enterprise in Tanghe County. Nowadays, Xiao Fei rarely appeared in public; people like Heizi and Pang Fa, who often went about their business in the area, had become prominent figures in the county, not to mention Yan Wenhai, the father of Boss Yan.
