Chapter 730: Chapter 730: Olympiad (2)_1

However, because she had more memories than others after all, her mathematic skills were still pretty good, yet not to the extent of participating in Mathematical Olympiads.

She wasn’t like her older and second brother, who had truly inherited Shu Jiao’s intelligence; they excelled in all subjects and won prizes in various competitions.

As for her, she felt that her advantages over others would become ordinary as she grew older.

But she didn’t care, as she hadn’t intended to be a top scholar to begin with; maintaining a top-three rank in her grade during junior high would suffice, and for the time being, that wasn’t too difficult.

The Xiu Xi beside her, now he was a real powerhouse.

Not only could he memorize anything after one look, but he also learned things extremely quickly, nearly grasping textbook material after just two readings.

Indeed, she couldn’t understand the world of such a top student.

——

Meanwhile, on the other side, as soon as Ruan Jiandang put Jiaojiao into school and got into the car, he began to speak sweetly to Shu Jiao: "Xiaojiao, I thought seriously about the words you and I spoke yesterday. I’ve recognized my mistakes deeply."

Upon hearing this, Shu Jiao gave him a light glance.

Ruan Jiandang immediately straightened his attitude: "Really, believe me."

Shu Jiao asked, "Then let’s hear it."

Ruan Jiandang stole another careful glance at her before saying, "I truly believe what you said, I’ve never doubted it, it’s just... sometimes I also dare not think too deeply. Xiaojiao, in that world you described, our entire family died, you died, our daughter died, even mom... How can I dare to even think about such a world?"

"So you just pretend it doesn’t exist?"

"No," Ruan Jiandang shook his head and sighed. On the contrary, he had done many things.

As early as two years ago, he had learned the ways of brotherhood because of the restaurant incident, understanding one couldn’t always be self-sacrificing, and even with blood brothers, accounts needed to be clear.

However.

He looked at Shu Jiao and said, "Xiaojiao, why did we end up in such a situation, if not because we weren’t powerful enough?"

Ruan Jiandang’s gaze became cold and resolute: "You say I cherish loyalty and righteousness, but you don’t know, for you and our daughter, I can also be selfish." That’s why he was actively promoting a few brothers, striving to provide better conditions for his nephews.

For what?

Could it really be for his selfless nobility?

Ridiculous.

Ruan Jiandang was not noble enough to that extent. Wasn’t it just to ensure that if they became more powerful, his daughter would have an extra layer of protection?

In the past, Ruan Jiandang disdained to speak of his actions, but now, looking at his wife who seemed disappointed in him, he had no choice but to articulate every word, including his even somewhat dark selfish motives.

Shu Jiao was surprised after listening.

She really hadn’t expected such delicate thoughts from this foolishly large man.

"Xiaojiao, can we never talk about divorce again? I truly recognize my mistake, rest assured, I’ll have a proper talk with Jiandang at the restaurant today!"

Although Shu Jiao did not speak, her expression softened a bit.

How could she actually want a divorce? When Elder Shu had pressured her like that, she had not agreed. So, how could she possibly want a divorce so easily now?

Her intention was merely to sound an alarm for this man; however, it now seemed that she hadn’t truly trusted him either.

"Sorry, it won’t happen again," Shu Jiao said.
