I Have Decided to Go Look for My Father Chapter 141

Chapter 141 – “Do you have any old photos you can show me, Grandpa?” (1)

Gu Qinghua was mid-level in the troop back then and, because of his outstanding performance and multiple achievements, he shined like a star and, with his ability, his potential was limitless.

The higher-up did not like how fast Gu Qinghua was rising and, feeling that his future standing and power were threatened, came up with this plan to destroy Gu Qinghua.

He had not expected that Gu Qinghua would have collected the evidences and cleared his own name in such a short amount of time.

Truth was, Yang Wanni didn't die from illness either. She was murdered.

The higher-up knew that the truth about Yang Wanni and the child would be revealed soon enough so he orchestrated Yang Wanni's death and moved on to the disillusion that “Gu Qinghua murdered Yang Wanni because she had been pestering him and he couldn't clarify things with her and didn't want her to affect his future.”

Unfortunately, that plan failed as well.

Failing to set Gu Qinghua up, the higher-up had no choice but to have Yang Wanni died from illness.

The aftermath from that lasted for quite a while and the higher-up also laid low for a while.

Nevertheless, he never gave up on the intention of ruining Gu Qinghua and ruining the Gu family, especially when he saw that neither Gu Qinghua nor the Gu family had been affected at all after the incidents. In fact, Gu Qinghua had been climbing higher and higher as was the Gu family's reputation.

The man in the dark's plan was to ruin the Gu family and, after many years, he finally succeeded.

Gu Yaobai, as his real son, wasn't entirely used by that person in setting up the Gu family. Being under the same roof, Gu Yaobai had always lived under the shadows of the real Gu sons and were always critiqued by others. As such, ruining the glory of the three Gu brothers had always been his wish.

Lin Yize, too, had taken the opportunity to destroy Gu Shao and made sure that Gu Shao had gone bankrupt and his reputation in shambles.

“That was too scary……”

Recalling details that had or hadn't been mentioned in the novel, Gu Xi suddenly felt a chill down her spine.

Here she thought she was in a early cliché, braindead romance with warped morals and everything that happened derived from the cliché love story between the male and female leads. She hadn't expected there were so many terrifying incidents that was beyond her reach.

And the worse part of it all was that the person hidden in the dark that wanted to bring down the Gu family was a man that Old Mr. Gu think of as his beloved teacher.

Gu Xi's hand holding onto her spoon starting shaking and her palm was sweating. She didn't even notice that her knuckles were turning white from her grip.

Gu Shao, next to her, noticed the changes in her and asked her in a low voice, “What's the matter?”

Brought back by her father's voice, Gu Xi shook her head reflexively.

She looked over in Gu Yaobai's direction reflexively but quickly looked away as she didn't want to alarm him.

Gu Xi tried very hard to keep herself from wanting to leave the dining table and tell the story arc in the novel to Gu Shao and Old Mr. Gu – but she couldn't tell them just yet. They would only think that she was crazy if she mentioned the novel and she might alarm the villains.

“No, nothing,” said Gu Xi in a low voice while biting down on the spoon.

Gu Shao gave Gu Xi a quiet look and, making sure that she was okay, unfurrowed his brows.

“You don't have to finish the food if you can't finish them,” said Gu Shao as he look at the pile of food in front of Gu Xi.

He worried that Gu Xi would have a hard time turning down Old Mr. Gu and the three boy's kindness and stuffed herself.

Having said that, Gu Shao even gave the three boys a look.

“Okay,” Gu Xi nodded.
