Chapter 1 — Direct Admission Was Robbed, I Made My Daughter World Champion

My daughter's direct admission spot was robbed, I immediately pulled her out of school, twenty days later the whole family went crazy. The day my daughter - the top student in the whole year - was secretly robbed of her special direct university admission spot, I didn't make a fuss. During the whole process, I was strangely silent. No arguing. No questioning. Nor did I go to the school board to demand justice. Even when the homeroom teacher hinted that:

“The other parent has special circumstances…”

“School is also very awkward…”

I still just calmly nodded. That obedient attitude made everyone think that my mother and I had completely admitted defeat. So that afternoon, I directly completed the withdrawal procedure for my daughter. Then he immediately took his child to a leading private academy specializing in international Olympic training. If this school can't accommodate a truly talented student... Then let's go. The class president was pleased. The ministry breathed a sigh of relief. As for the family that used their connections to steal the other spot, needless to say, they were so happy that they couldn't hide the gloating look on their faces. They think we are afraid of trouble. Thinking that ordinary people cannot compete with someone who has their back. Who would have thought... It was only twenty days later. The ones who panicked to the point of going crazy were them. My phone was being called non-stop. The mother of the "replaced" child almost burst into tears on the phone:

“Please… please let your daughter go back to school!”

“If it weren't for her keeping the grade point average, my daughter's achievements would have plummeted!”

"The direct admission is about to be canceled! I can't keep it anymore!"

I looked at the constantly lit phone screen. The corners of his lips curled slightly coldly. Then gently swipe your finger down. Permanent black scissors. The atmosphere in the meeting room was so stuffy that it was difficult to breathe. Opposite me are three people. Head of the mission. Homeroom teacher Vuong Duc Phat. And Ton Nhue's mother — Luu Van. On their faces was the same kind of calculating arrogance. Vuong Duc Phat pushed up his glasses, then brought a file in front of me.

“Ms. Tham Thanh, this is the school's final decision.”

"After comprehensive evaluation, this year's special admission to university will belong to Ton Nhue."

That tone sounded like he was granting a favor. My daughter, Chu Niem. Standing first in the division for three consecutive years. Just won the gold medal at the National Physics Competition. This direct admission was originally prepared specifically for her. As for Ton Nhue... His achievements are only at a good level. The best test attempt could only climb to tenth place in the entire grade. I didn't look at that document. His eyes only stopped on Luu Van. Today she was dressed splendidly, her wrists were full of jewelry, and a faint smile hung at the corner of her lips. That is the smile of a winner.

"Chu Niem's parents, I know this comes a bit suddenly to you."

“But you should also understand the school side.”

"Direct admission cannot only be based on scores, it must also consider comprehensive qualities."

"My daughter has been multi-talented since childhood, and is also good at communicating and getting along with people."

Every sentence she said felt like a needle pricking her skin. But I remained silent. From beginning to end, I didn't say a single word. No questioning. No arguing. There wasn't even a trace of anger on his face. I just sat quietly listen. My calmness surprised them a bit. The head of the teaching department coughed loudly:

"If Ms. Tham has no comments, please sign here."

“This matter is considered decided.”

Vuong Duc Phat immediately continued:

“This is also a good thing for Chu Niem.”

“She will become more mature after experiencing a little failure.”

"Anyway, with her achievements, taking the university entrance exam on her own is not difficult."

They work together so well that they can turn shamelessness into dignity and righteousness. I picked up the pen. Just when they thought I was going to bow my head and sign... I just gently rotated the pen between my fingertips, then put it down. Then stand up.

"I got it."

Just four words. My reaction made the smile on Luu Van's face stiffen for a moment. Perhaps she had prepared countless words to deal with my crying and chaos. I don't follow that script. I turned around, opened the meeting room door and walked out. Behind them, there was immediately a sound of contemptuous chatter that they didn't bother to hide.

“Look, I'm so scared I can't even say a word.”

“No matter how terrible it seems, it turns out it's just a fear of trouble.”

"So you admit defeat? How boring."

I don't stop walking. Outside the teaching building, the sunlight was so bright that it hurt my eyes. I took out my phone and made a call. The other end of the line quickly picked up the phone.

“Hello, is Mr. Ly of Khai Minh Academy?”

“I am Chu Niem's mother, Tham Thanh.”

“Yes, we have decided.”

“Now we will go through the admission procedures.”

When I called Chu Niem, she was at the library.

“Nien Niem, pack your things.”

“Mom is waiting for you at the school gate.”

“We changed schools.”

The other end of the line was silent for ten seconds. Then just quietly replied: Don't ask why. No panic. That's my daughter. Half an hour later, Chu Niem pulled a small suitcase and appeared in front of the school gate. The baby's eyes are a bit red. But don't cry.

“Mom, are you done?”

I nodded and took the suitcase from my child's hand.

“Let's go, mommy will take you to a good place.”

I didn't immediately take my child to a new school. Take your kids out to eat at the most expensive Japanese restaurant in the city. Then go to the mall and buy your child a new outfit from head to toe. In the end, mother and daughter sat in the cafe on the top floor, quietly looking at the busy traffic below.

“Mom… you actually knew it from before, right?”

Chu Niem scooped up a small piece of cake and asked softly. I stirred my cup of coffee and looked at her.

“When you took the National Physics final exam, I already knew.”

“Luu Van invited the entire school leadership to dinner.”

“Their private room… right across from mom's.”

The spoon in Chu Niem's hand stopped in midair. I smiled softly.

“They put on such a good show…”

“Of course there must be an audience.”

“Unfortunately, the only audience is mom.”

Her eyes gradually covered with a layer of moisture.

“That's why... mom told me to definitely get the gold medal?”

I pulled out a tissue and wiped the cream from the corner of my child's lips.

“That direct admission was just a trap from the beginning.”

“They want to use it to make me quit international competition.”

“They want their children to obediently stay in school and be a foundation for their daughter.”

“Unfortunately…”

“They miscalculated something.”

“They thought Mom would cause a riot, would denounce, and expose everything.”

“But they don't know…”

“From Until now, I have never wasted time messing with trash.”
