Transmigration; A Mother's Redemption and a perfect Wife.-Chapter 442; Honeymoon phase 4 (m)

They reached the doorway to his room. He took the bag back from her hands and gently pecked her cheek.

"All right, Momma. I’ll go do my homework now. We need to prepare for the debate with Minghao."

Nanny Yun watched him disappear into his room, her heart full. Whatever gods had brought her to this household and given her such a good son, she thanked them every single day.

Inside his room, Qin Xinyu set down his bag and looked around at the space that had become his sanctuary.

The room was luxurious, just like every other part of the main mansion, but beneath the polished elegance, it carried a softness that made it feel lived-in, almost comforting.

It was more like a private suite than a simple guest room. The moment one stepped inside, the sitting area immediately drew the eye: a plush sofa in muted cream tones, scattered with velvety throw pillows, and a low coffee table carved from dark, fragrant wood. A thick rug spread beneath it, warming the floor and softening every footstep. Warm gold sconces on the walls cast a gentle glow, making the space feel endlessly welcoming.

To the right, a compact but beautifully arranged kitchen stood tucked into its own corner. Smooth marble countertops gleamed under soft lighting, and the cabinets, lacquered in deep mahogany, held neatly arranged dishes. A small dining table sat nearby, just big enough for two people to share a quiet breakfast.

Opposite the sitting area was a tidy study nook. A polished desk stood against the wall, complete with a modern lamp, neatly stacked books, and a comfortable chair. It was a space that invited focus, perfect for late-night reading or finishing assignments in peace.

Two bedrooms were positioned deeper inside, separated to give both privacy and comfort. His room was simple but elegant: a wide bed dressed in soft linen, a wardrobe with enough space for all his belongings, and a window that looked out into the quiet back garden. His mother’s room mirrored the same arrangement, though hers had softer colors and a delicate floral scent drifting from the small vase placed on her bedside table.

Despite their status in the household, there was nothing lacking here. The space was warm, complete, and undeniably luxurious, just like what the Young Miss and Young Masters enjoyed. Only the quietness, the simplicity, and the gentle warmth hinted that this corner of the mansion belonged to them. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

He walked to the window and stared out at the manicured gardens, watching as the evening sun cast long shadows across the perfectly trimmed hedges. Somewhere in the main house, Minghao was probably chattering away to Qing Qing, her energy boundless even after a full day of school.

She was so young. Only six years old, yet carrying the weight of wanting to prove herself to a family that already loved her unconditionally.

Qin Xinyu understood that feeling all too well. With all these facilitations and amenities, he needed to do well... Extremely well, so well since nothing was hindering him.

He moved to his desk and began unpacking his school bag. Textbooks stacked by subject, notebooks aligned by color, pens arranged in their holder. His homework planner came out last, and he flipped it open to today’s date.

Mathematics: Complete exercises 15–30, focus on quadratic equations

Literature: Finish reading Chapters 8–10, prepare discussion points

History: Essay on the economic factors leading to the Industrial Revolution (1500 words minimum)

Debate Prep: Research international perspectives on childhood education, compile statistics

The debate.

His first major competition was at this prestigious school. Partnered with Minghao, even though she was young, she was really intelligent and better suited in this sector... when it came to studies, she was really good at what she does.

He pulled out a fresh notebook dedicated solely to debate preparation and began writing in his neat, precise handwriting:

International Students Debate Competition

Topic: Childhood Development: Traditional Education vs. Modern Approaches

Position: To be determined based on assignment

Partner: Huo Minghao...

He paused, tapping his pen against the paper.

Minghao was brilliant in her own way, more than most people realized.

Academically, she excelled with an ease that left her teachers stunned. She absorbed languages like they were melodies, spoke with clarity and precision, and had a natural talent for crafting arguments so sharp they could cut through any discussion. When it came to speech, logic, and expression, she was unmatched.

But she doubted herself.

Because she didn’t thrive in the same areas her brothers did, military training, tactical drills, and combat exercises, she often felt she fell short. She compared herself to Zhihao’s commanding presence, Feihao’s analytical mind, and Tinghao’s quiet, effortless wisdom. She didn’t see that her strengths lay in a different arena entirely: in understanding people, in academic brilliance, in the power of her words.

His job as her debate partner wasn’t just to win. It was to help her see what everyone else already knew, that she was remarkable exactly as she was.

Qin Xinyu stood and moved to his bookshelf, pulling down several volumes on educational psychology, international child development studies, and competitive debate strategies. He stacked them on his desk, then booted up his laptop, a gift from Tang Fei when he’d enrolled in the academy.

The screen glowed to life, and he immediately opened multiple browser tabs:

(Academic journals on childhood education)

(Statistics on learning outcomes across different educational systems)

(Video recordings of previous International Students Debate competitions)

(Public speaking techniques for young competitors)

His fingers flew across the keyboard as he began compiling research, categorizing information, building arguments, and counterarguments.

This was what he was good at: research, analysis, and preparation. Creating order from chaos.

Upstairs, Minghao emerged from her shower, changed into comfortable home clothes, and gathered her books from the shelf.

As she settled onto her bed, she noticed Qing Qing’s gaze lingering on her, a look filled with unmistakable longing.

Qing Qing watched her with quiet envy. How she wished for a normal life like Minghao’s, the simple freedom of going to school, carrying textbooks, complaining about homework, having friends, being ordinary.
