I Have Decided to Go Look for My Father

In the afternoon, at ntn, the discussion on the 'maritime transportation control' project went smoothly, so, the whole meeting ended in less than two hours.

Originally, Gu Shao was invited to an exchange meeting later on.

However, seeing Gu Xi's absent-minded appearance, Gu Shao finally rejected the other party's invitation, and took Gu Xi home.

——

When they got home, Gu Xi had already forgotten, but Gu Shao handed her a very delicate box.

What is this? Looking at the box, Gu Xi's eyes lit up.

The reward for this competition. Gu Shao said.

Obviously, this reward should have been prepared by Gu Shao in advance. Just looking at the box is so good-looking, it is quite exciting.

Gu Xi took the box from Gu Shao, opened it - what caught the eye was a very beautiful hairpin, a small one, but very delicate, it looked simple, but it made people's eyes shine.

And this card is actually the same color as the school uniform that Gu Xi usually wears.

——It seems to be quite suitable.

Gu Xi muttered, taking out the hairpin from the box with some surprise, and looked at it over and over again.

Gu Shao on the side looked at Gu Xi holding the hairpin and studying around, his expression was normal.

However, if you look carefully, you will find that there is actually a trace of tension in Gu Shao's eyes at this time.

——Speaking of which,?? This is the first time that Gu Shao bought small things for his daughter.

The card issuance is customized, but the style and color are selected and determined by Gu Shao.

Gu Shaozhi has never researched what girls of this age like and what they are suitable for, so Gu Xi has no idea whether Gu Xi will like it or not.

However, Gu Xi obviously didn't realize Gu Shao's nervousness. After reading the card with a fresh one, Gu Xi carefully put the things back into the box, then held the box and grinned at Gu Shao: Thank you. dad!

Seeing the smile on Gu Xi's face, the expression on Gu Shao's face softened again.

only……

Why do you feel that the girl's excitement about receiving the gift is completely different from the way she looked when she got the money?

Gu Shao thought to himself.

He was sure that Gu Xi would definitely jump up with joy if he received cash at the same price as the issued card.

Don't like it? Gu Shao asked.

Hearing this, Gu Xi immediately shook her head: No, I really like it!

But it would be better if it could be discounted...

Gu Xi whispered something quietly in her heart.

However, she didn't dare to say this to Gu Shao.

Then, looking at Gu Shao, Gu Xi suddenly smiled embarrassingly, and said, Well, Dad, can you give me another reward?

... Could it be asking for money again?

Gu Shao's temples twitched, thinking to himself.

But, fortunately, this time, what Gu Xi asked was not money.

I want to go to NTN. Gu Xi said.

She has learned specifically that the 'Youth Entrepreneurship Competition' itself is a youth competition that NTN focuses on, and the contestants of this year even got a chance to study at NTN directly after the competition.

Gu Xi also wanted to go, and it would be even better if he could enter the talent training reserve list of ntn.

Gu Shao didn't know that Gu Xi was working hard now to be able to enter NTN in a serious way and participate in the security system project of NTN in the future. So, when Gu Xi said that, Gu Shao was taken aback for a second, then smiled calmly for a second.

Okay, Gu Shao said, raised his hand to rub the top of Gu Xi's head, and said, I'll take you there during the holiday.

It's not impossible to take Gu Xi to work in the center when Gu Xi is on vacation.

Gu Shao thought.

Thinking of something, Gu Shao looked at Gu Xi seriously again.

You care about that Lisa? Gu Shao asked. Although it is a question sentence, but the tone of this statement.

Hearing Gu Shao's sudden question, Gu Xi froze.

No... Gu Xi retorted consciously.

But thinking about it carefully, she seemed to care a little too much about Lin Yize's Bai Yueguang, so it's no wonder that Gu Shao felt strange.

Actually, I don't really care about it... Gu Xi whispered, lowered her head consciously, and said, It's that Aunt Lisa, she looks a bit like Song Er, like my mother, so I just watched it more.

I just find it a little strange, how can it be so similar. Gu Xi added, trying to understate her concern.

Gu Xi explained it simply, but Gu Shao took her words to heart.

——So, is Gu Xi watching Song Kexin through Lisa?

Gu Shao looked at Gu Xi, his eyes moved slightly.

He remembered an article he read a while ago, which mentioned: How important is the role of mother in the growth of children.

So, no matter what, as a child, Gu Xi always has expectations for her biological mother, right?

It's a pity that Gu Shao can give Gu Xi the best of everything, except this.

Miss your mother? Gu Shao looked at Gu Xi and asked seriously.

As if hearing a trace of nervousness and apology in Gu Shao's words, Gu Xi's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly shook her head in denial: No.

As if to prove that she wasn't lying, Gu Xi emphasized again: I don't miss her at all.

This is not a lie, let alone to reassure Gu Shao.

What Gu Xi said was true: if it was true, she might really expect Song Kexin's occasional care, but after being sent to Zhang Qiang's house, being transferred out of her household registration, and knowing the plot of the following novel, Gu Xi will not.

She no longer had any expectations for Song Kexin.

The reason why Gu Xi still cared about the affairs of the Lin family was also because of the plot.

Thinking of the following plot, the expression on Gu Xi's face suddenly became tense.

Father. Gu Xi looked at Gu Shao and consciously grabbed his sleeve.

What? Sensing Gu Xi's nervousness, Gu Shao slowed down his tone.

Gu Xi wanted to remind Gu Shao to be careful of Lin Yize, so she said, That Lin Yize is not a good person, he has a lot of bad intentions behind his back, and I feel that he wants to harm us.

Hearing Gu Xi's evaluation of Lin Yize, Gu Shao was not surprised, but he frowned slightly, looked at Gu Xi and said, These are adults' affairs.

As a child, Gu Xi shouldn't worry about these things.

But Gu Xi was worried that Gu Shao didn't take what she said to heart, so she tightened her grip on Gu Shao's sleeve, and said anxiously, Really, if you don't believe me, you can go and investigate, he really did it. A lot of bad things happened. Maybe many of them were aimed at the Gu family.

And, and... Gritting his teeth, Gu Xi said again: I often have a dream, in which Lin Yize's power will become very large, and then he will come to harm grandpa and the others, and our family! He will also use some There is nothing to frame you! You want to kill me...

Seeing the girl talking non-stop in front of him, Gu Shao's gaze deepened little by little, and the look on his face became more serious.

Dreams, future predictions, plots... Gu Shao wouldn't believe these mystical things, but he believed that Gu Xi wouldn't lie.

Therefore, the dream Gu Xi talked about must have been a dream she had really dreamed.

As for Yuan, Gu Shao believed that it was his experience in Lin's family and his impression of Lin Yize and Song Kexin that left a deep shadow in Gu Xi's heart, so Gu Xi had such a dream.

Gu Shao didn't tell Gu Xi that since following Gu Yaobai's actions to find out about the Lin family, he had already become suspicious of the Lin family, and had been sending people to watch out for Lin Yize's actions.

Seeing Gu Xi's anxious and frightened expression, Gu Shao assured her: I will investigate the Lin family, and I will be on guard against Lin Yize, don't worry.

Yeah, Gu Xi nodded, Then you need to arrange more people to watch him.

it is good.

Gu Shao nodded seriously, Gu Xi's mood seemed to calm down, and then he opened his mouth again.

Now, tell me one thing. Gu Shao looked at Gu Xi, tried to keep his tone as calm as possible, and asked again: Is it in the Lin family, or Lin Yize, did you do anything bad to you?

Gu Xi's repulsion and defense against the Lin family, and the shadow in her heart is too deep. Guo was just not cared about when she was in the Lin family, so she would not have such strong emotions and self-protection awareness.

When Gu Shao asked this question, he felt extremely difficult.

But as a father, it was hard for him not to care about it.

Gu Shao's fists were clenched secretly: he wasn't sure for a second, what he would do when he heard what Gu Xi said.

No... Gu Xi shook her head, it didn't seem like she was deliberately hiding it.

They just don't like me, or daddy you know...

As for Lin Yize, he treated her as if she was a dirty thing—when he was younger, Gu Xi didn't understand these things, but simply imagined being led by 'father' and patted by 'father' like Lin Anxin, However, whenever she approached Lin Yize, the other party would wave her away with a disgusted expression.

When she was young, Gu Xi didn't understand what that expression meant, until she was older, she gradually realized that Lin Yize didn't like her, so she gradually stopped approaching him.

Occasionally, when Lin Yize saw her in the Lin family, he would not rush to avoid her or let her go elsewhere, but would look at her repeatedly with a look that had some deep meaning in his eyes.

Recalling the look in Lin Yize's eyes, Gu Xi couldn't tell what it meant, but even now she still felt hairy in her heart and couldn't help shivering.

Well, it's really nothing, I don't like them anyway. Gu Xi raised her head, looked at Gu Shao and raised her head a little arrogantly, humming.

Anyway, you just have to be careful with him. It's not a good person to pay Gu Yaobai back. This is the point. So Gu Xi emphasized it again.

Emphasizing the evening, seeing Gu Shao nod his head, Gu Xi said good night reassuringly, and went to his room.

Behind him, Gu Shao looked at Gu Xi's room, and after a few seconds, he rubbed his eyebrows, and sighed secretly: I really don't know whether it is this girl's sense of accuracy, or when he is dealing with some things. Gu Xi heard it.

——

On the other hand, all the reminders that should be said have been said, and Gu Xi felt a lot more relieved.

After arriving in the room, Gu Xi opened the box and took a look at the hairpin inside, then joyfully ran to the mirror with the hairpin in her arms, and tried it several times by clamping it on her head.

Looking at the hairpin on her head, Gu Xi giggled, she couldn't hide the liking on her face, her joy was much stronger than when she was in front of Gu Shao.

After fumbling back and forth for a while, Gu Xicai reluctantly accepted the issuing card.

Okay, put it in the cabinet carefully.

Then go to |bed|sleep.

Five minutes later, Gu Xi opened his eyes again. Jumping off the bed, ran to the cabinet where the hairpin box was, took it out again, took it to the bed, and put it next to his pillow. Gu Xi stared at the box for a while, smiled 'hee hee', then pressed the box with her hand and fell asleep contentedly.

——

Gu Shao outside went to the study.

After processing some documents, Gu Shao received a call from Wang Wu.

Wang Wu's first sentence explained to Gu Shao the situation at Qiao Luo's banquet today: Lin Yize went to the banquet.

Also, after a pause, Wang Wu said again: At the banquet, Lin Yize met Mr. Qiao's secretary and recognized him.

They checked what happened 15 years ago, and also checked the past of Lin Yize and Song Kexin. Naturally, they didn't miss the part between Song Kexin, Lin Yize and Meng Zixin.

Hearing what Wang Wu reported, Gu Shao was not too surprised, and responded coldly: Return it?

At the banquet, when we arrived at Meng Zixin, Lin Yize lost his composure, but was quickly stabilized by Meng Zixin who returned to Mr. Qiao, and it did not affect the banquet. Afterwards, Lin Yize and Meng Zixin left together, and the two went to the hotel A club next to it...

In the clubhouse, not many people found out the content of the conversation between the two, so Wang Wu could only make a brief report.

In the last part of the conversation, Lin Yize seemed to suggest that Meng Zixin go to his place to help him with things, and hoped that the two would join forces to prevent the 'transportation control' project from continuing.

After all, Wang Wu said worriedly: This Meng Zixin doesn't seem safe, sir, do you think you need to contact Mr. Qiao and change someone?

After all, Lin Yize and Meng Zixin did have a relationship at the beginning. Although the two have never met again in these years, and Lin Yize also married Song Kexin, but people's hearts are unpredictable. It is hard to say whether Meng Zixin will really miss the old love and cooperate with Lin Yize .

Qiao Luo attaches great importance to this assistant. At present, Meng Zixin is acting as an agent for many domestic affairs. Once Meng Zixin and Lin Yize reach a certain kind of cooperation, or have a tendency towards Lin Yize, then they will be passive.

Wang Wu's consideration was not unreasonable, but Gu Shao was not so anxious.

There is no need to rush to change people. Gu Shao said calmly.

At present, it seems that Meng Zixin took Lin Yize away in order not to affect the banquet scene, and Meng Zixin did not deliberately cover up the process of the two leaving, it was also a statement.

After that... Wang Wu asked again.

We'll see how she chooses later.

People who can be favored by Qiao Luo still have the professional principles they should have.

The most important point is that in Gu Shao's opinion, this Lisa is not stupid: on the one hand, it is her career and career, and on the other hand, it is just a memory of her first love in the past. Whichever is more important, I believe that any normal person will choose.

However, thinking of Gu Xi's tense face just now to make him guard against Lin Yize, Gu Shao explained again: Keep an eye on it more.

Yes, sir. Wang Wu replied on the phone.

——

Regarding Lin Yize and Meng Zixin's encounter, Gu Shao's attitude was calm.

But in the Lin family on the other side, Song Kexin couldn't sit still after hearing the news that 'Lin Yize went to a certain banquet and left with a woman before the banquet was over'.

How could he do this! What kind of woman made him do this... Song Kexin sat on the sofa with an ugly expression.

Zhang Cuixiang, who was on the side, quickly spoke in relief, Maybe it's just a normal business discussion.

Zhang Cui's words did not comfort Song Kexin, but instead made Song Kexin even more anxious: About business? How can there be business at this time? And it's a lonely man and widow, not even the bodyguards are allowed to follow!

What made Song Kexin feel the crisis and uneasiness the most was that Lin Yize didn't answer her phone call. Since hearing the news, she has called Lin Yize 30 times in a row and sent messages and WeChat messages, but the other party didn't answer any of them. Did not reply to her either.

If it's just about business, how could it be like this.

Song Kexin squeezed the phone tightly again, and couldn't help but make another call.

Lin Yize still didn't answer.

No, I'm going to find him. Song Kexin stood up from the sofa with an ugly expression, ready to go out.

——Which club did Lin Yize and that woman go to? Song Kexin could find out from the bodyguard who returned the driver, but the bodyguard did not follow because Lin Yize had ordered it.

Song Kexin planned to go by herself.

In this situation, Zhang Cui was taken aback, and quickly grabbed Song Kexin, and persuaded: Don't worry, it's just another time, doesn't it prove a misunderstanding? You just go like this, if it doesn't, won't it affect you Have you arrived at Yize?

What should I do if I make Yize unhappy at that time? Just bear with it, it may not be the case...

Hearing this, Song Kexin shook her head: But this time, I don't know why, I just feel very uneasy.

Just as she was talking, a message from the bodyguard came from Song Kexin's mobile phone: [Madam, the chairman and that woman have come out. 】

Song Kexin's heart tightened, and she quickly sent a message to ask; 【Who is that woman? What is the status of the two of them now? 】

The bodyguard at the other end didn't know how to describe it, so he secretly took a photo and sent it to Song Kexin.

The photo came over. In the picture, Lin Yize and another woman were walking side by side. There was a distance between them.

Not intimate, and it can be seen that the woman is deliberately keeping a distance between the two.

However, when she saw the woman's face in the photo clearly, Song Kexin's complexion changed suddenly.

The woman in the photo looks too much like her, and Song Kexin already knew who the other party was through her sixth sense at the first glance.

It's her... Song Kexin's legs gave way and she fell down on the sofa, her face pale.

Zhang Cui next to her didn't understand what happened, so she nervously supported Song Kexin.

Kexin, what's the matter, what are you? Zhang Cui asked.

And Song Kexin just shook her head, repeating: It's her, why is it her...

Who? Kexin, tell me clearly, don't scare me.

Meng Zixin...

——At the beginning, when Lin Yize asked Song Kexin to be his lover|lover, he didn't say that she was a substitute, until later, when Song Kexin was helping Lin Yize clean up the room, he accidentally saw a photo, and saw a girl who was very similar to her in the photo Only then did she realize that she was just a stand-in. And finally realized that when the two were together, the 'Xin'er' Lin Yize called was not her, but Meng Zixin.

But at that time, Song Kexin had already fallen in love with Lin Yize, and also needed his money, so she chose to play dumb.

Even though Song Kexin is in great pain every time she hears the man she loves hugging her and calling another woman Xin Er, she also firmly believes that her dedication and love can change everything and heal Lin Yize's pain.

Later, after experiencing countless pains and misunderstandings, Song Kexin finally made it, taking the place of that first love in Lin Yize's heart and making Lin Yize fall in love with her.

Everything was perfect originally, why did that Meng Zixin appear again!

Song Kexin bit her lip tightly, with hatred in her eyes.

——

On this side, maybe she remembered too many things about the Lin family and the plot of the novel while sleeping, and after Gu Xi fell asleep, she also slept very restlessly.

The dream that scares Gu Xi the most reappears again.

——In the dream, Gu Xi ran away in a hurry, cried out for help, cried and begged those people to let her go...but nothing helped.

In the dream, Gu Xi couldn't feel pain, but could feel endless fear and helplessness. Her body hurt so badly, as if it was torn apart.

Gu Xi struggled to look around, in a certain direction, behind those devil-like figures, Lin Yize's face became more and more clear.

He looked at her with that familiar, creepy look.

Dominated by fear, Gu Xi's consciousness fell into darkness again, and it was hard to tell if she lost consciousness in the dream, or in reality, because the dream was too terrifying, she closed her consciousness like self-protection.

In the darkness, Gu Xi felt someone walking towards her.

She felt a hand covering her face with warmth. It feels so familiar...

But Gu Xi couldn't remember anything.

...

After Gu Shao finished his work, he planned to rest in his room, but when he passed by Gu Xi's room, he heard crying from inside.
