But for the Xiao Family, having a child student is something they couldn't even dream of in generations.

Mr. Xiao also knows how difficult it is to study and to acquire scholarly honors; he never intended to force his son to pursue them.
But not daring to think about it doesn't mean he wasn't hoping for it.
