I Have Decided to Go Look for My Father - Chapter 97

Gu Shao shook his hand on the door handle.

Gu Shao sank his face and pushed the door in.

At this time, Gu Xi and Sheng Xiuyan were sitting on the sofa in the living room, and Sheng Xiuyan was holding an ice bag to help Gu Xi apply ice.

There was nothing wrong with their actions, but they leaned too tightly, and Gu Shao’s temples jumped violently in the intimate posture.

Sheng Xiuyan and Gu Xi at the other end finally noticed Gu Shao who walked into the room.

“Dad, you’re back.” Gu Xi yelled to Gu Shao, because he spoke too hastily, and his face was a dull pain.

Seeing Gu Xi frowned because of the pain, the severity of Gu Shao’s eyes eased a lot.

-Yesterday, when he helped Gu Xi apply ice, this girl also kept screaming for pain. Now it looks better than it was in the morning.

Hearing Gu Shao’s return, Sheng Xiuyan also put away the ice bag in his hand, got up and turned to face Gu Shao.

Sheng Xiuyan quickly hid the embarrassment in his eyes, pretending to call Gu Shao as usual, “Uncle Gu.”

However, from his hand holding the ice bag, he could see the tension of this person at this time.

Not only Sheng Xiuyan, but Gu Xi also became nervous.

-Strange, Sheng Xiuyan used to come to Gu’s house often before, and I also followed Gu Chenyi and the others here. Originally, the few people were playing together. Gu Xi never felt anything before, but now she is inexplicably guilty.

This is probably a guilty conscience to be a “thief”…

Gu Xi murmured silently in her heart, and then smirked at Gu Shao intently, and pointed to Sheng Xiuyan and explained: “He came back from City S and heard that I had an operation, so come and have a look.”

Gu Xi especially emphasized the word ‘by the way’.

-Is it?

Gu Shao squinted his eyes. How did he hear that Professor Zhou’s visit and study hadn’t ended yet, and this kid had asked for leave in advance and ran back?

Gu Shao glanced over Gu Xi and looked at Sheng Xiuyan.

“How about studying?” Gu Shao said ‘caring’, but his stern voice didn’t mean the slightest concern.

“Not bad,” Sheng Xiuyan said, paused without concealing the authenticity: “The content of the following visit has little relevance to my direction, so I came back early.”

Regarding someone’s explanation, Gu Shao was noncommittal, and turned his eyes to the restaurant, where Sheng Xiuyan cooked Gu Xi’s porridge.

—By the way, even the meal was served ‘by the way’?

“I’m going to clean up.” Sheng Xiuyan said, ready to wash the dishes.

Gu Xi had eaten and said that she had a toothache, so he first gave her an ice pack.

“Let it go.” Gu Shao stopped Sheng Xiuyan in a heavy voice.

Sheng Xiu was taken aback.

I also heard Gu Shao say: “There is no reason for guests to wash the dishes.”

Gu Shao bit the word ‘guest’ very hard, whether it was intentional or unintentional, and even gnashed his teeth a bit.

“Sit down.” Gu Shao let Sheng Xiuyan sit down.

Seeing Sheng Xiuyan sitting next to Gu Xi, Gu Shao frowned.

—Before the two played together and participated in the competition together, there was too much time in the same frame, and Gu Shao would not care too much, but today, I always feel particularly dazzling.

“Xie Xi.”

“Um?”

“Go and add some clothes, I caught a cold for a while,” Gu Shao said.

After hearing this, Gu Xi’s mouth twitched. Originally, she wanted to say that the summer is not cold, and her home clothes are thick enough. However, meeting Gu Shao’s rare and strict eyes, Gu Xi still gave Sheng Xiuyan a “please ask for more.” Fu’s eyes, got up to add clothes.

Here, Gu Shao looked at Sheng Xiuyan and said blankly: “Professor Zhou said you are good.”

Gu Shao’s words sounded like exaggerating Xiuyan word by word, but he couldn’t hear the meaning of exaggerating Xiuyan word by word.

Sheng Xiuyan nodded, did not speak, and met Gu Shao’s gaze, always feeling an invisible coldness, like a light on his back.

“Watch more in the research group, ask more, learn more, don’t be afraid of trouble, let alone go fishing for three days and two days on the net.” Gu Shao said.

Sheng Xiuyan nodded: “I will.”

“Be active and do more.”

“Good.” Sheng Xiu said again.

But Gu Shao said again: “Don’t you go?”

Sheng Xiuyan: “?” Where to go? Professor Zhou’s research group? Now?

Gu Xi, who had just changed her clothes, was also dumbfounded.

—Dad, your rhetoric about driving people away is too blunt, there is no turning point.

Gu Xi silently glanced at the time: 7:30 in the afternoon.

Not to mention that Professor Zhou’s entire research group has gone to City S, except for Sheng Xiuyan, no one else has come back. In normal times, at this point in time, the research team has already finished work early.

After understanding what Gu Shao meant, even though he was a little bit unwilling in his heart, Sheng Xiuyan still got up and said goodbye.

—

After dismissing a certain obnoxious kid, Gu Shao looked at Gu Xi again.

“What’s the matter?” Gu Xi felt guilty, but returned to Gu Shao with a calm and ignorant expression on her face.

After watching Gu Xi for two seconds, Gu Shao finally sighed and said, “It’s okay for you and the Shen family to do projects and play together, but you should also keep your distance and don’t go too close.”

“Well, why?” Gu Xi asked subconsciously, and then said: “Aren’t we always like this? There are also Gu Chenyi, older brother and younger brother.”

That’s the problem!

Gu Shao secretly said in his heart, and said in a deep voice to Gu Xi: “Although you are the ones who played the game together, the Shen family is different from Gu Chenyi and the others.”

Gu Yanlin, Gu Yanxiao, Gu Chenyi and Gu Xi are cousins ​​and cousins. Of course, it doesn’t matter if they are close, but Sheng Xiu said it doesn’t matter.

After that, Gu Shao glanced at the porridge made by Sheng Xiuyan and the small dishes deliberately chopped to pieces, and a hint of danger flashed in Gu Shao’s eyes.

-A boy is kind to a girl, and he is so careful that he has ulterior motives, but he has no ‘mind’.

Gu Shao didn’t say this, but he had this instinct, which stemmed from a certain sense of crisis of an old father.

“In short, keep the distance you should have.”

“Hmm.” Gu Xi replied vaguely.

Seeing that Gu Shao’s expression seemed to ease, Gu Xicai asked again seemingly inadvertently: “Dad, were you talking to Sheng Xiu about the project?”

“That’s right.” Gu Shao simply replied: The main purpose is to send the kid away.

“Sheng Xiuyan’s performance in the project team is very good?” Gu Xi asked again.

“Zhou Chenwei is very optimistic about him.” This is the truth.

“Then—” After a pause, Gu Xi looked at Gu Shao and asked sideways, “Dad, what about you? What do you think of Sheng Xiuyan?”

Gu Xi’s words seem to be random, but in fact there are fears and expectations hidden in her heart.

As a result, he heard Gu Shao lightly throw out a sentence: “Not very good.”

Gu Xi:?

“No, don’t you think he is actually quite…” Okay.

Gu Xi wanted to refute Gu Shao’s words.

Halfway through the conversation, Gu Shao glanced at Gu Xi, but Gu Xi was stunned, and stopped chattering.

—

After a while, Gu Shao finished cleaning up the dishes, and while Gu Xi was not around, he called Zhou Chenwei, the person in charge of Sheng Xiuyan’s largest research group.

The call is connected quickly.

“Professor Gu, what’s your order?” Professor Zhou asked with a smile on the phone, and the other party looked very happy when he received Gu Shao’s call.

“Don’t dare to tell me,” Gu Shao also smiled and said, after a pause, he asked, “How is Sheng Xiuyan on your side?”

“Xiao Sheng, it’s not bad. He has a strong learning ability and is quick to learn. The point is that he is also very humble, young, not bad!” Professor Zhou was very satisfied with the mention of Sheng Xiuyan.

Gu Shao replied calmly, and said, “That kid is good, you can give him more opportunities to exercise.”

Hearing what Gu Shao said, Professor Zhou on the other end immediately reacted. Gu Shao meant that he should take care of Sheng Xiuyan.

Of course there is no problem! Originally, Sheng Xiuyan was cultivated by him as a key seed student.

“Haha, don’t worry, Professor Gu, I will definitely give priority to Xiaosheng when I have good opportunities and projects.” Professor Zhou said with a smile.

Gu Shao frowned slightly.

“It’s not just projects, you can arrange everything for him in your research room.”

“What other work can I have in my research room? The rest is errands.” Professor Zhou joked.

In the end, Gu Shao responded, “It’s okay.”

“You…” Professor Zhou became more mysterious and gradually realized something was wrong: How did he feel that Gu Shao was not supporting Sheng Xiuyan, or was simply going to find something to do for Sheng Xiuyan?

“Of course, if there is any matching project from other provinces or overseas, you can also consider letting him go.”

After that, Gu Shao added a serious sentence: “Young people need experience.”

Professor Zhou: “…” Well, not only do we need to find things for people, but we also want to throw people far away.

“The Gu family and Sheng Xiu said that their family has any grudges or grievances?” Didn’t they say that they were good friends? Is there such a silly junior?

After finishing the call with Gu Shao, Professor Zhou touched his chin, puzzled.

“Professor, have you encountered any problems?” The teachers who came to the side to visit and study, saw Professor Zhou tangled at a display board, and couldn’t help but ask.

“No.” He was just wondering why Professor Gu suddenly took such’care’ to a junior.

Suddenly, Professor Zhou’s inspiration flashed.

“By the way, Professor Gu’s daughter and Xiao Sheng are very close?”

Hearing that, the teacher nodded: “Yes, I often participate in competitions together.”

“Haha, then I understand.”

“What do you understand?”

Professor Zhou smiled without answering, and said with emotion: “Pity the parents of the world, haha.”

“By the way, when you go back, you can get Xiaosheng to participate more in the project you have, but if you need to run out, try not to arrange it.”

Facing the teacher’s puzzled gaze, Professor Zhou did not explain, but just secretly thought: If the future is really true, he has to prepare a big red envelope!

—

Back at school, Sheng Xiuyan obviously felt that he had a lot more research content.

However, as a boyfriend of the ‘internship’ period, Sheng Xiuyan still did not miss any chance to brush his presence.

“What are you?” Gu Xi raised her eyebrows when she saw the person sitting next to her.

“Ceng class.” Sheng Xiuyan said seriously.

If it weren’t for the smile that couldn’t be hidden on his face at the moment, Gu Xi would almost believe what this man said.

Although electronic technology and information technology are two directions, they are in the same college, and Sheng Xiuyan can be considered as a member of half of the college, and occasionally come to take classes.

Therefore, the people in the classroom were not surprised to see Sheng Xiuyan.

It was a pity that he glanced at Sheng Xiuyan thoughtfully.

Under Gu Xi’s gaze, Sheng Xiuyan calmly took out a book of microeconomics to make up the numbers.

At this moment, the front door of the classroom was pushed open, and the person here was not the subject teacher of this course, but Gu Shao.

Seeing Gu Shao, the students underneath were surprised at first, and then burst into cheers.

“Professor Gu, are you here to substitute for Teacher Wang?” someone asked in surprise.

How famous is Gu Shao in the industry? It is not an exaggeration to say that many students have chosen this major for Gu Shao.

It’s a pity that Gu Shao has few courses in A, and generally not for undergraduate students. The only elective course is also fiercely competitive, and it can be robbed in less than 3 seconds.

Therefore, it is a huge surprise for them to be able to take a class from Professor Gu, even if it is a substitute lesson!

“Ms. Wang went out to study and research, I will take this class temporarily.” Gu Shaoyan explained concisely.

After all, Gu Shao glanced around in the classroom, and keenly saw the extra existence next to his daughter in the back row.

Gu Shao coldly said, “You are going to start the class, and if you go to the wrong classroom, you can go to your own classroom now.”

Meeting Gu Shao’s thoughtful and directional sight, Sheng Xiuyan bit his head and didn’t move.

After Gu Shao’s gaze watched Sheng Xiuyan sit tightly for a few minutes, the hand under the desk quietly grasped Gu Xi’s hand from an angle that the other party could not see.

Feeling the tension under Sheng Xiuyan’s pretending to be calm, Gu Xi tried very hard to resist a smile.

The main reason is that he is afraid of being seen by Gu Shao in front of him and misunderstanding.

Gu Xi glanced at Sheng Xiuyan, then took a sneak peek at Gu Shao in front of him: How does she feel that Gu Shao’s eyes on Sheng Xiuyan are more er…stricter than before?

…

The class finally ended in a ‘tensed and serious’ atmosphere.

After class, after leaving the classroom, Gu Shao looked at Sheng Xiuyan and said, “You don’t seem to have this class.”

Sheng Xiuyan had a look and explained: “Our teacher said that the content of such a course is helpful for the research of the subject, and I suggest that I come and listen.”

In the distance, Professor Zhou, who was working seriously in his office, sneezed: He hadn’t said this before, he didn’t recite this pot!

“Really?” Gu Shao raised his eyebrows, obviously not believing Sheng Xiuyan’s words at all.

“Then go and report to your teacher about your experience in class.” After that, Gu Shao took Gu Xi and prepared to leave. Before leaving, he gave Sheng Xiuyan a warning look.

Sheng Xiu understood the words and consciously said to the father and daughter, “Goodbye.”

At this moment, Gu Chenyi and Gu Yanxiao also walked over from a short distance, and they seemed to have just finished class and were about to go home.

The two came over, first called Gu Shao, and then looked at Gu Xi and Sheng Xiuyan.

“Are you going to pity their class again?” Gu Chenyi asked.

The success of the word ‘again’ made Gu Shao black.

Gu Chenyi pulled up Sheng Xiuyan as if unaware, and said, “You have no class later, go, go to our house for dinner.”

Gu Yanxiao also added a sentence next to him: “It just so happens that Grandpa Shen and Grandpa went fishing together today. I guess they will be at our house right now.”

Gu Shao glanced at his eldest nephew, calmly, took Gu Xi and left, leaving the three with different expressions.

Gu Chenyi: “Why do I feel a little bit cold? The sky has changed?”

Gu Yanxiao: “It’s a bit…”

—

In the evening, Sheng Xiuyan was invited by Gu Yanxiao and his father Gu on the phone to have dinner at Gu’s family.

As the fishing during the day did not have a victory or defeat, after dinner, the two old men quarreled again and finally decided to compete in chess.

“Go and fetch my chess, I have to convince this old man to lose today!” Old man Gu said dissatisfied, then glanced at Old Man Shen contemptuously, and said: “You think I can beat you with Go. Wrong, I still beat you in chess.”

If they didn’t fight for a reason, these two would not stop. Gu Xi had already understood this very deeply over the years.

Therefore, when he heard the old man’s words, Gu Xi stood up without hesitation: “I’ll get it.”

Sheng Xiuyan also stood up behind Gu Xi: “I’ll go and help her get it.”

Hearing this, Old Man Gu nodded indifferently, and then exhorted: “The chessboard is a bit high on the shelf in the middle of the storage room. Be careful when you take it.”

—

Gu’s storage room is not small, but in these years, it has been filled up unknowingly.

Fortunately, the position of chess is prominent enough.

Gu Xi soon found the chess equipment on a pile of things on the shelf, and Gu Xi walked over and prepared to get it on tiptoe. Before Gu Xi could get it, Sheng Xiuyan had already taken the things down before her.

“Anything else?” Sheng Xiuyan asked.

Gu Xi shook the contents of the box in his hand with Sheng Xiuyan’s hand and said, “It should be all inside.” There should be chess pieces inside.

“Let’s go.” Gu Xi turned around, but she was facing Sheng Xiuyan’s eyes.

Both of them caught a momentary cramp from the bottom of each other’s eyes.

Perceiving Sheng Xiuyan’s approach, Gu Xi’s breathing was slightly stagnant.

However, in the next second, Gu Xi couldn’t help but break her work and chuckled.

“We are like this, do we look like junior high school students who secretly fall in love with each other?” Gu Xi asked with some amusement.

“Then I regret it.”

“Um?”

“If you reacted earlier then, you could do a lot of things secretly.”

At least don’t be so nervous now. Sheng Xiuyan added something silently in his heart.

“Don’t you want to say that when you were in junior high…” Did you like her?

“It’s possible.” Sheng Xiuyan’s voice was a little deep.

Immediately, Sheng Xiu Yanxin bowed his head and kissed Gu Xi gently.

At this moment, both of them were taken aback.

When facing the person you like, tension cannot be hidden.

Even though Sheng Xiuyan tried his best to show composure, Gu unfortunately could still feel the tension of the other party.

Due to being too close, Gu Xi could even clearly hear the very irregular heartbeat of the other party. And her own.

—Fortunately, when I came in, Gu Xi thought about going out soon, so I didn’t turn on the lights.

Otherwise, his face is flushed now, and he will be ashamed.

Gu Xi thought to herself.

As it happens, Sheng Xiuyan thought so too.

The ghost knew how nervous he was now: sweat was all in the palms of his clenched hands.

Originally, it was just a light kiss, but both of them were reluctant to part with each other.

At this moment, the ajar door was pushed open.

“Have you got it? Grandpa doesn’t want chess anymore, he wants to talk to Grandpa Shen…”

“Fuck, you guys—!”
