"The reason why I say this is simple. After dropping out of school, I published a novel and made some gains, which gave me a good financial reward. But I'm still very young, only 16 years old, and after achieving this result, I am afraid that I will create a misconception among other peers or young people, such as the idea that reading is useless, because I am a dropout myself. ”

As Kim Hyun-tae explained, the puzzled look in Marty's eyes gradually dissipated, and was replaced by deep thought and understanding of Kim Hyun-tae's words.

Kim Hyun-tae continued: "I don't want to bring this kind of wrong concept and influence other teenagers, besides, I am still a minor father, my children will grow up slowly, and I, as a father, will also become a role model for her to learn and imitate."

So the question is, in the future, when I educate my child and let her study hard, she refutes me with a small probability event like me, a father who dropped out of school and succeeded in the publication of novels, how can I educate her?"

I have to say that what Kim Hyun Tae said is a very real problem, and it is very likely that it will occur.

Although Kim Hyun-tae's words are all for himself, Marty can also hear that Kim Hyun-tae's words also reveal a layer, that is, thinking about social impact.

Well, that's a nice kid, and it's pretty good to think about it at his age.

At the very least, they are more mature than their peers and have some depth in their considerations.

As for the situation of being a dropout and still a minor father, it can basically be ignored.

If nothing else, just because he has this mentality of thinking about problems for the society and the public, it means that he is a good boy.

Especially as an educator, Marty felt recognized and recognized by Kim Hyun-tae's words from the bottom of his heart.

She herself bought the novel "A Song of Ice and Fire" and thought it was a good read.

Now facing the author of this novel, listening to the author say some big truths contained in such a small truth, it is even more satisfying for her.

Therefore, Marty, the principal who looked like a black aunt next door, nodded slowly with a satisfied look on his face, and said to Kim Hyun-tae: "I am very satisfied with your explanation, and I personally welcome students like you who are willing to come to our college to study." As long as your entrance test meets the criteria, then provisional enrollment will not be a problem at all. ”

Marty's words are tantamount to telling Kim Hyun-tae that as long as the test is up to standard, there will be no problem in enrolling.

Dave sat down with a smile on his face, and he also appreciated Kim Hyun-tae's performance.

"Principal Marty, I actually think I can go straight to Year 12 so that I can take the university exams in a few months. Why does the house require me to start in Year 11?"

Regarding this attitude of the academy, Dave relayed it to Kim Hyun Tae, so Kim Hyun Tae had to ask this question that made him wonder.

Besides, he really wants to go directly to the 12th grade (senior year of high school), so that in a few months, he can graduate from high school and enter college, instead of starting from the second year of high school.

"We're here for your own good, because you're only 16 years old and you've been out of school for a year. As for some knowledge in high school, we think it is not very solid, even if you study some cultural courses on your own during the year, even if you can be admitted to university, there will be some related shortcomings. ”

Principal Marty also gave Kim Hyun-tae an explanation here.

Hearing this, Kim Hyun-tae had no choice but to smile bitterly: "So, even if I get the university entrance qualification, it won't work." ”

Marty nodded apologetically: "It's useless to just have grades, if you don't complete your high school credits, or we don't issue a certificate here, you can't go to college, even if you get it, you won't succeed." ”

All right!

The damn credit system has killed Kim Hyun-tae's mind in this regard.

Here we have to mention, that is, about the credit system of American high schools in this time and space.

This is a very unfamiliar system for Chinese students, and basically everyone is not very familiar with it.

In the United States in this time and space, the credits are divided equally among the teachers of each subject, with reference to test scores, lecture time, and a combination of other related factors.

For example, whether there is skipping class, absenteeism, as well as the length of time to attend formal classes, moral character, etc., are closely related to credits.

In other words, credits are considered to be a comprehensive evaluation of a student.

Basically, it doesn't mean that you can get high credits if you have a test score.

The knowledge test score is high, but the credit evaluation given by the teacher is low, so I'm sorry, you can't graduate.

It can be seen how important credits are for high school students.

Even with low credits, you can't even go to college.

This is also because of Marty's remark, Kim Hyun-tae was immediately discouraged.

And this credit system still exists at university.

Kim Hyun-tae turned out to be in time and space, that is, the world he lived in in his previous life, and the United States also had a credit system, but it would not be so perverted.

But in the United States in this time and space, the credit system is perverted.

But Kim Hyun-tae couldn't change all this, so he had no choice but to accept his fate.

Even if he asked Dave to find another college, it would probably be like this.

At this time, the grading teachers also came back with the papers, and these teachers directly handed the papers to the principal Marty, who looked at the scores and said to Kim Hyun-tae with a smile: "The grades are all up to standard, and even the two papers are full of high scores, you can enroll." ”

For such a result, Kim Hyun-tae is no exception.

If he can't meet the target, it's an accident.

Hearing Principal Marty say this, Dave, who had been sitting quietly on the side, got up and walked over.

"Alright, we'll be officially going to school tomorrow. ”

Principal Marty nodded at Dave, then turned to look at Kim Hyun Tae: "No problem, remember that you are in Class A of Year 11, and you will report directly to the homeroom teacher, Ms. Linda, tomorrow morning." You have to be there before 7:30, so don't be late. In the end, she didn't forget to remind Kim Hyun-tae that she remembered the time to go to school.

Kim Hyun-tae nodded, indicating that he remembered it, and then followed Dave out of the academy.

On the way back, Dave advised Kim Hyun Tae: "Don't drive your Audi car to school, you go buy an inconspicuous second-hand car, so that you can keep a low profile." ”

Kim Hyun-tae's Audi car is 260,000 yuan, although it is not a luxury car, but it is also remarkable among ordinary high school children, especially among high school children in public colleges.

Therefore, it is difficult to drive such a car to school without attracting attention.

To a large extent, this will conflict with Kim Hyun-tae's low-key concept, so Dave, who understands this, will kindly remind him.

Used cars are a good option, cheap and not so conspicuous.

Most of the high school students' cars are second-hand cars, so it doesn't show how special Kim Hyun Tae is.

"Okay, Mr. Dave, if you're not busy, please take me to the used car market. ”

Kim Hyun-tae was as good as a stream, and accepted Dave's advice.

Hearing this, Dave smiled: "It just so happens that I don't have anything to do today, so I'll take you to the second-hand car market to have a look." ”

With that, Dave drove the car, turned around and drove off the highway to another fork in the road, and began to move towards his destination.

------ Dividing Line------

"Coco is so beautiful, you're like a little princess. ”

Coco was wearing a white lace dress and a lace headband on her head, and the whole person was very different from head to home, and the little guy was standing in front of a big mirror, smiling and looking at himself who was dressed differently.

Anne, on the other hand, squatted beside Coco very exaggeratedly, also looked in the mirror, and praised the little guy in an exaggerated tone and tone.

It can be seen from Coco's expression and reaction that the little one is very happy with this compliment, and at the same time he is very satisfied with his current appearance.

"Let's try this outfit again, I think Coco will be prettier, we need to try more beautiful clothes, right? ”

"Yes!"

Although Coco is only 10 months old now, she is also a 'female drop' after all, so she obviously has no resistance to beautiful clothes or anything.

With Anne's help, Coco takes off her white lace dress and puts on a punk-inspired children's outfit.

The old butler Nord took the lace dress, handed it to the clerk who followed him, and whispered, "Let's settle the bill together, we want it." ”

As for the price, Anne and the old butler didn't care at all.

And in the hands of the clerk, at this time there were already piles of children's clothes, which Coco tried to wear, basically as long as the clothes that Coco tried to wear were changed, the old housekeeper would ask the clerk to settle it later, that is, to buy it.

This is definitely a big customer!

And it's still a big customer who doesn't have bad money!

Therefore, the young female clerk stood quietly beside the old butler with a smile on her face, and the smile was almost folded on her face.

"Miss, you bought so many clothes, how can you explain it when you go back?"

Seeing that his young lady was still unsatisfied and wanted to continue to buy, the old housekeeper had to remind his young lady to pay attention.

It's not that I'm reluctant to pay for it, it's just a few dollars.

Even if each piece of clothing is more than $600, this money is nothing to Anne, this is simply the 'cabbage price'.

But the old housekeeper had to think that after buying so many clothes to bring back, how could Kim Hyun Tae explain it?

You know, my own lady made up a 'pitiful' life story, which fooled the Asian boy.

Sure enough, as soon as the old butler reminded her, Anne thought of this crucial question.

However, her eyes rolled, and she suddenly showed a sly look, and at the same time thought of a good excuse.

"It's okay, I've come up with a good excuse here, it's okay to perfunctory the boy. After saying that, Anne looked at the time and found that it was still early, so she didn't plan to waste time here, you must know that there are still many places, and she has not taken Coco to play yet.

The old butler, Nord, was naturally in charge of the checkout, and Anne left the store with Coco in her arms.

When the little guy left, there was still a reluctant look on his face, which made Anne feel distressed, so Anne hugged Coco and comforted: "Don't be reluctant, we will come back next time we have time, the clothes here are all yours." ”。

And the old housekeeper who had settled the account came up and happened to hear his young lady's words, and after his expression was dull for a moment, he shook his head with a wry smile.
