I Have Decided to Go Look for My Father

Chapter 80: "Who's Gu Xi's love bento from?" (1)

I guess so, said Gu Xi softly.

She rubbed her burning ear subconsciously before she said in a feigned nonchalant, I have read some articles on NTN Technology Center in the past and felt that it was a mighty place and I hope that I will also one day become a mighty person and join NTN Technology Center.

Having said that, she even gave Gu Shao a nonchalant smile that gave herself away.

Gu Shao didnt not comment on what Gu Xi had said.

That being said, at an angle that Gu Xi could not see, the corner of Gu Shaos lips curved ever so slightly upward.

Returning quickly to his solemn look, Gu Shao said to Gu Xi seriously, Getting into NTN Technology Center is not easy.

That was the truth unlike Talent training and research mechanism in colleges and universities, NTN Technology Center represented the most cutting edge technology in the Chinese market. They basically recruited elites in the field and even entry level personnel must meet a minimum requirement.

That, however, was not what Gu Shao was trying to tell Gu Xi.

You can make your own decision. Do keep in mind that you have your entire life in front of you and you dont need to be limited in just one direction, said Gu Shao seriously.

In the past, when Gu Xi was with the Lin family, she studied hard, she gave it her best in everything that she did and get the top scores Being a child seeking their parents approval was majority of the reason.

Gu Shao wasnt certain whether Gu Xis goal of becoming a great researcher in technology and enter NTN Technology Center was part of her effort of trying to appease the adults.

But, being with him, she did not need to do that.

He did not need to measure his own child with a ruler nor did he need her to be extremely outstanding in the eyes of the others.

You can do what you enjoy doing, added Gu Shao.

Gu Xi was taken aback a little when she heard that but, when she figured out what Gu Shao was trying to say, her eyes beamed again.

The very next second, she cracked open her mouth and smiled at Gu Shao. Okay, I understand what you mean but I wasnt lying. This is what I want to do.

As though worried that Gu Shao would not believe her, she stressed again, Really!

This time it was Gu Shao who was taken aback. If he remembered correctly, girls her age should be more interested in singing, dancing, or drawing, or dream to become a star.

That was what Gu Shao read about the most online.

Gu Shao looked over at Gu Xi. The seriousness and excitement in the girls eyes looked genuine.

***

Gu Shao looked away from her. While talking about essays, he recalled the last essay that he read the night before.

family huh

Gu Shao lowered his eyes some.

Even if the entire essay was conjured up from Gu Xis imagination, or based on how the Lin family members treated Lin Anxin and was far from the truth, it was not difficult to read a childs desire for family and love from the embellishment of her maternal grandmother Zhang Cui and paternal grandmother Xu Jiaofeng.

Recalling the call that Old Mr. Gu had Butler Zhou made, Gu Shao thought about it some and said, You are coming with me to your grandfathers place this Mid-Autumn festival.

Gu Xi was dazed when she heard that. That her look was filled with surprise.

Even though Gu Shao was the only person on his household register, Gu Xi did not give it much thought, nor did it occur to her that he might have other family members.

When Gu Shao brought up grandfather out of the blue, that was when Gu Xi suddenly realized that Gu Shao should have other family members.

That was mentioned a little in the novel but not a lot was said about it.

Something along the line of bad things happening to his family after he had been crushed by the male lead.

Even though she has yet to meet them and not much was said about them in the novel but, perhaps because of the blood-and-flesh filter, Gu Xi felt that the Gu family members should be nice people.

The ending in the novel made her worry.
