I Have Decided to Go Look for My Father

Chapter 232: The difference in the words was very minor but Gu Shao picked it up anyway. (1)

Gu Shao took off because he noticed Gu Xi not far away from them. Gu Xi was standing on a path not too far away from the entrance of the school staring eagerly at the entrance.

Gu Shao walked over to behind Gu Xi and his look mellowed out obviously.

Are you waiting for me? asked Gu Shao.

Gu Xi was taken aback a little when she heard Gu Shaos voice. That was when she realized that he had already arrived.

Gu Xi turned and called out, Dad. Smiling shyly, she said, I thought

That I wont be coming?

No. Gu Xi shook her head and tried to come up with a reason. She said, I worry that you might need help finding my classroom.

Lets go, Dad. The parent-teacher conference is about to start. Having said that, Gu Xi dragged Gu Shao with her and headed in the direction of Class #7.

As much as she tried to appear calm and normal, the look on her and her pace betrayed her excitement.

Gu Xi dragged Gu Shao toward her classroom.

The moment that they arrived at the entrance of the classroom and before they could walk inside, the class teacher had already come out to welcome Gu Shao enthusiastically.

Prof The class teacher was going to address Gu Shao as Professor Gu but, when she thought about it some more, decided that that might not be appropriate for the event. Instead, she said, Daddy Gu Xi is here.

The class teacher, upon seeing Gu Xi and Gu Shao, her smile couldnt be brighter.

Just Sheng Xiuyan alone in their class had gotten them plenty of attention. With the addition of Gu Xi, that had practically made her the most envied teacher in school!

Especially during the last monthly examinations. Both #1 and #2 of their grade were in her class. What more could she possibly ask for?

Starting two days ago, when the grades had been announced, all the way until today, she could stir up wind when she walked.

I am so glad you can find time in your busy schedule to come.

Having said that, the class teacher introduced to him another parent. This is Sheng Xiuyans father.

The class teacher felt that this was a very lucky day for her. Not only did two of her students scored the highest in their grade, both of them hotshot parents were here as well.

Gu Shao looked over at Sheng Yi and nodded at him.

Truth was, they didnt need the introduction. Gu Shao and Sheng Yi knew each other from before.

Old Mr. Gu and Old Mr. Shen were good friends for many years. As such, the younger generations from the two families were familiar with each other as well.

As for the Shengs, way back when, the Shengs and the Gus were practically neighbors. As such, Gu Shao and Sheng Xi sort of knew each other.

The Shen family had four children. After the oldest two had died in a war, the only ones left were the Shens only daughter, Shen Yi,* mother of Sheng Xiuyan, and Shen Ye, the youngest of the four and the son that Old Mr. Shen got late in life.

After losing two children painfully, Old Mr. Shen was not going to let the remaining children repeat the same mistakes. As such, Shen Yi became a doctor and Shen Yi started his own business.

Lo and behold, Old Mr. Shen would never had thought that her daughter ended up marrying a military man and Shen Ye became a miliary doctor.

You have time off? asked Gu Shao as he raised his brows. The unit that Sheng Yi was at was no ordinary unit. It was not easy for him to take time off.

Sheng Yi nodded upon hearing that. Yeah, I hadnt taken any time off in years. Its rare that I have time off.

He was forced to take leave this time by a few comrades in arms when they tossed him and his suitcase out.

Pausing a little, Sheng Yi went on to say, I have some free time at home, so I thought I will see how the brat is doing at school.

Truth was, he heard his brother-in-law mentioned that Sheng Xiuyan might be in a romantic relationship in his young age. That was the real reason that he was here.

Translators rambling:

Yes, this is NOT an error on my part. Sheng Xiuyans mothers name is Shen Yi and his father is Sheng Yi Blame the author (or the Chinese language), not the translator. ?
