I Have Decided to Go Look for My Father Chapter 28

Chapter 28 – The broke down looks on the two of them looked almost identical. (1)

Lin Xi had gone through great difficulty squeezing this money out from the Lin family. She had to hide it in the between the sleeves of her luggage bag in order to sneak it past Zhang Cui and the others' inspections in order to bring them with her.

She finally pulled this money out when she was organizing her luggage.

Seeing how Lin Xi looked nervous as though she worried that he would not accept it, Gu Shao's eyes and frown deepened.

“I said I will support you till you are of age and I will keep to my words. As a minor, you will not need to worry about your expenses during this period of time,” said Gu Shao, his tone non-negotiable.

Lin Xi was taken aback a little. Why that makes sense.

She knew that Gu Shao didn't need the money to support her but, as long as he refused to accept it, she still felt uncomfortable.

“Take your money back,” said Gu Shao.

Lin Xi stood where she was, her fingers twisted together and she did not move.

Gu Shao's frown deepened when he saw that. “Do I need to repeat myself?”

Lin Xi shook her head wildly.

Finally, under Gu Shao's look, Lin Xi bit her lips, blurted out a, “Good night, Dad,” turned and dashed out of the study.

The money was left where it was.

Looking in the direction that Lin Xi had run away in and then back at the stack of money on his desk, Gu Shao felt a headache coming on.

A not-so-obvious peculiar feeling also crept into his heart at the same time.

Lin Xi, returned to her own room, let out a sigh of relief. She packed away the luggage that she had brought with her.

Unlike when she was staying at the temporary housing, Lin Xi put a lot of effort into putting her things away this time – if everything went well, she might be living here for a long time. All the way into her adulthood.

Thinking of that, Lin Xi couldn't help but smiled uncontrollably from under the blanket. With this entirely different life, she should not end up the way she did in the novel, right?

Lin Xi had no idea when she had fallen asleep. This was her first night here and everything was strange to her. Surprisingly though, she had a very good night of rest that night.

Gu Shao left the house as usual the next day.

When he walked out of his room, the clanking noises coming from the kitchen caught his attention.

Gu Shao then saw Lin Xi walking out from the kitchen, carrying two plates in her hands.

Lin Xi's first reaction was to retract her neck as though she had been startled when she saw Gu Shao. Then, the very next second, she visibly gotten rid of her surprised look and gave Gu Shao a smile that was brighter than when a salesperson meeting their best customer.

“Good morning, Dad!”

Gu Shao, “… …”

After a long while, all Gu Shao did was nodded at her coldly.

That didn't bother Lin Xi much. Still with a smile, she said to him, “Have some breakfast, Dad.”

Having said that, Lin Xi waved the plates in her hand in a showoff fashion. “I've made pancakes. There's a sweet one, a sesame one, and a green onion one…

“Which one would you like, Daddy?”

That pancakes smelled very good and Gu Shao could smell a hint of green onion and sesame from a few meters away.

Nevertheless, he had no intention of having breakfast at home.

“No need.” Gu Shao rejected her. Pausing for a little while, he added, “You can have them.”

“You don't want any, Dad? I've tried some earlier. They are very good.”

“I don't need any.” Gu Shao rejected her once again.

“Oh.”

Gu Shao felt a pang of guilt when he saw the disappointment on the girl and added an explanation, “I am about to leave.”

Lin Xi looked up, “Are you heading into the office, Dad?”

“No, to A University.”

Upon hearing that, Lin Xi recalled that in addition to being the boss of NTN Technology Center, Gu Shao has another mighty identity: Professor at A University.

Lin Xi's eyes flickered and she stopped him. “Wait, Dad.”

Gu Shao saw her running back into the kitchen and came back out quickly with a lunchbox in her hand.

As Gu Shao never told her which flavor he wanted, Lin Xi cut all three pancakes into halves and put half of each into the lunchbox. She then put the cover on the lunchbox and put it into its designated bag.

Walking over to Gu Shao, she handed him the lunchbox and said, “You can take this with you, Dad.”

In the novel, Gu Shao went to jail because he was set up by Lin Yize and finally died in jail. His cause of death of cancer to the esophagus causing him to not be able to eat.

She had no idea how much truth there was to that or how much his eating habit had to do with cancer of the esophagus, but Lin Xi figured one couldn't be too safe.

After looking at Lin Xi expressionlessly for a few seconds, Gu Shao finally accepted the lunchbox from her.
