He had a hunch that he might not be promoted this time.

Early this morning, calls from units like the Education Bureau kept coming, all trying to confirm the authenticity of the candidates' age.

As early as when he heard that Gu Ning got first place in the exam, he wanted to call Gigi Gigi. Unfortunately, the phone at home has been ringing with calls from other people until just now.

Just after making the last call, Dong Luming couldn't help but dial the phone number of the government agency to tell Gigi Gigi the good news.

Gigi Lai was naturally very happy when she heard the news. But because she had anticipated it, she was still able to hold her own.

Smiling and thanking Dong Luming, Gigi hung up the phone after exchanging pleasantries.

Before hanging up, Dong Luming didn't forget to remind Gigi Gigi that Gu Ning should come to school to pick up her report card in two days.

She also told Gigi that teachers from the Education Bureau and the city's junior high schools might come to her in the next two days to ask her to prepare.

Gigi Lai agreed one after another. After hanging up the phone, Gigi Lai's brows were filled with joy and her face was flushed. It was obvious at a glance that something great had happened.

Lao Zhang, who was in charge of managing the phone, had just listened to the whole process and probably knew that it was Gu Ning who got first place in Xiaosheng's junior high school exam and got perfect marks.

He was really surprised. He had long heard that Director Li's daughter was a child prodigy and finished primary school at the age of three.

But after all, it was just hearsay. Lao Zhang didn't expect Gu Ning to be so awesome!

You know, this primary school entrance examination is a city-wide unified examination.

What does this mean? It means that Gu Ning is better than all the primary school students in the city!

Gigi Lai was on the phone just now, so Lao Zhang shouldn't be disturbed. Seeing Gigi Gigi hanging up the phone at this moment, Lao Zhang quickly congratulated Gigi Gigi:

"Director Li, congratulations. Your daughter has ranked first in the city. In the past, she was the top scholar! With such achievements at such a young age, you will be blessed in the future!"

Gigi Gigi showed a big smile and said modestly:

"It doesn't matter. It's just an exam for getting promoted from primary school to junior high school. I can't afford the title of champion. But I still lend you some good luck!"

Lao Zhang waved his hand:

"Oh, no way, Director Li, you are too modest."

Gigi Gigi smiled and said:

"Thank you. I haven't gotten off work yet. I have to go back to work first. Goodbye!"

Lao Zhang said cheerfully:

"See you tomorrow, Director Li."

Gigi Lai returned to her office, unable to calm down for a while.

If it hadn't been for getting off work yet, she would have wanted to run home and tell Gu Ning the good news.

Barely suppressing her inner excitement, Gigi Lai completely immersed herself in her work.

As soon as the working hours were over, Gigi Lai immediately packed up her things and rushed home.

Her steps were so fast that if it weren't for the fact that everyone here was familiar and she had to take her image into consideration, Gigi would have wanted to run.

Thanks to her efforts, the time it took to get home today was reduced by half.

In just five minutes, Gigi Lai arrived home.

At this time, Gu Ning was lying on the bed reading a book, and also brought snacks to the bed to eat.

She was so absorbed in watching that she didn't even notice that Gigi Gigi was back.

If it had been normal for her to eat while lying on the bed, Gigi Gigi would have scolded her.

But today was different, today was a good day, so Gigi Lai didn't say anything even if she saw Gu Ning eating in bed.

Gu Ning was startled when he first noticed Gigi Gigi. Later, he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Gigi Gigi didn't react at all.

Before she could speak, Gigi Lai spoke first:

"Ning Ning, are your results out? What do you think you got?"

When Gu Ning heard about this, she didn't take it seriously. She answered matter-of-factly:

"How much more could it be? Of course it's a perfect score! I did the questions myself, and I know them well. The questions on the two papers in the exam are very simple, and I can do them all. Otherwise, I wouldn't have submitted the papers in advance."

Gigi Lai nodded repeatedly:

"You are right, it is indeed a perfect score, and both subjects are perfect scores. Your principal called and said that you ranked first in the city this time!"

Gu Ning nodded, not surprised. She was quite confident about her test scores.

But now that I got a definite answer, I was naturally happy.

Gigi Gigi looked at Gu Ning with a smile on her face and said:

"Such a great good thing should be celebrated. It's too late now. It's too late to cook at home, so let's go out to eat today. You clean up now, and when your father comes back, we will go to a state-owned restaurant to eat."

Gu Ning's face was full of excitement and he nodded wildly:

"Okay! Mom, let's order a few more dishes today!"

Gigi Lai did not refuse and readily agreed;

"No problem, you can eat as much as you want today, it's enough."

Seeing that Gigi Gigi was in a good mood today, Gu Ning asked tentatively:

"Then can I eat more spicy food today?"

Gigi Gigi glanced at Gu Ning with a clear look. But she was in a good mood today and she was easier to talk to, so she agreed:

"Okay, I'm in a good mood today, so I'll indulge you for once. However, remember not to eat too much, otherwise it will be bad for your stomach."

Gu Ning nodded desperately:

"Yeah, yeah, I understand, just indulge once in a while."

Anyway, Gigi Gigi has already agreed. It’s not up to her to decide how much she will eat. She must agree first and then talk about it.

The spicy that Gu Ning was talking about was actually snacks like spicy tofu skin and dried tofu.

People here refer to these spicy things as spicy.

As for the spicy strips, they haven't been invented yet, so Gu Ning doesn't have this luxury for the time being.

Not long after, Gu Xian came back.

He gets off work at the same time as Gigi Lai, and only occasionally works overtime when the mayor has something to do.

Sometimes, he would go on business trips with the mayor.

However, during this period, the mayor was not very busy and did not have much to do, so Gu Xian went off work normally.

As soon as he returned home, Gu Xian was told that Gu Ning ranked first in the city.

Like Gigi Gigi, he was also very happy.

When he heard Gigi Gigi saying that she was going to a state-owned hotel for dinner, he immediately agreed.

It just so happened that he had just returned home and hadn't changed his shoes yet. He didn't need to pack anything now and could just leave.

In this way, the three of them went to a state-owned hotel for dinner to celebrate.

Yuquan City is a city after all, so the supply of state-owned hotels here has always been good, much better than those in communes and counties.

No, I was lucky today, I actually had sauced pork elbow and steamed sausage.

However, the quantity of these two items is relatively small, and each person is limited.

The three of them immediately ordered a portion of sauced pork elbow and steamed sausage, and then ordered a portion of fried pork with chili pepper and a portion of fried bacon with grandma's vegetables.

All are meat dishes. The three of them don’t plan to be vegetarian today, they just want to eat meat to their heart’s content.

The sauced elbows are cut in advance. Naturally, one serving cannot contain as much as one elbow. It is only cut and placed on a small plate.
