I Have Decided to Go Look for My Father

Chapter 26: This is for my living expenses. (2)

The actual test performed and the details were not meaningful. As such, Gu Shao flipped straight to the last page and read the conclusion that was bolded.

Lin Xi walked over and reached her neck as far as she could, wanting to see the conclusion.

Unfortunately, Gu Shao had already closed up the report and placed it aside. His expressionless look gave away nothing.

Looking over at Lin Xi, Gu Shaos look deepened.

Lin Xi was very confident just a second ago but now she started feeling anxious from the way that Gu Shao was looking at her.

So, I am your real child, right?

Lin Xi asked softly.

Before Lin Xi could finish her sentence, Gu Shao interrupted her and asked, How did you find out that I am your birth father?

Upon hearing Gu Shaos words, Lin Xis eyes flickered as she figured out the conclusion on the report it confirmed the relationship between the two of them.

Lin Xi knew that she would not be able to keep from Gu Shao what had happened to her in the past and with the Lin family. As such, she just told him the truth, Ive inadvertently overheard the conversation between my mom and grandma when they were talking about what happened in the past and how I was conceived.

Lin Xi skipped the part about the novel that she dreamed about; it was too metaphysical.

Gu Shao nodded. He did not question the truth in her words.

Why did you come looking for me? Gu Shao asked.

Because, em, my life at my previous family wasnt all that great and I no longer wish to stay with them. Thats why I came looking for you.

Its true. I am not lying to you. Lin Xi added, The family was not nice to me as I am not their real daughter. Every since I was a child, I have always used what Lin Anxin had left over. Whenever she did something bad, I was the one being punished. This time, she had fallen into a pond after having conflict with someone and I was the one who got her out of it. Everybody insisted that it was me who pushed her into the pond. Nobody believed me. In addition, my mother and grandmother sent me to the village that they were from and I dont want to stay there

Lin Xi only said all these to convince Gu Shao that she was telling the truth and her determination in leaving that family. She had not noticed that she was behaving very much like a child coming home and telling her parent how she had been wronged by others.

Gu Shao looked at Lin Xi. She wasnt lying. What she had told him aligned with what was in the report from Wang Wu. In fact, she had left out a lot.

Anything else? asked Gu Shao.

Lin Xi, Um, no. Those were more or less it

-- Lin Xi hesitated a little and decided against sharing what happened at Zhang Qiangs place, her fever, and dreaming about Lin Yize.

How did you get here? asked Gu Shao, seemingly mindlessly.

I booked an app=based car before my cellphone was taken away. Lin Xi explained.

-- Okay, she wasnt stupid.

Thought Gu Shao.

Staring at the top of Lin Xis head for a little while, Gu Shao said calmly, I have the obligation to support you until you are of age.

Supporting Lin Xi was just an expense to Gu Shao. An amount that was negligible to him.

Upon hearing that, Lin Xi looked up abruptly at him and her pair of light brown eyes were filled with pleasant surprise. Really? You will support me?

Gu Shao did not answer her question but his attitude said it all.

Thats wonderful! Thank you! I will be very easy to keep. I promise!

Gu Shao had no idea that the girl saw his answer as the turning point of her tragic future. His lips twitched when he saw the girls excitement.

I only guarantee you your living expenses and what you will need for your studies. And only till you are of age. Gu Shao stressed again.

Lin Xi nodded violently. I understand. You only need to support me till I am of age.

She would be able to have control over her own actions then and would no longer need to worry about the Lin familys power over her.

Thank you, Dad! Lin Xi bowed solemnly at Gu Shao.

Gu Shao,

He recalled how serious she looked when she said she would be at his deathbed. And, how did the Dad just roll off her tongue so smoothly?
