I Have Decided to Go Look for My Father

Chapter 18: “What do you want to do with your child?” (3)

Xu Fei returned to the little conference room after Gu Shao had left.

Lin Xi was still standing where she was a while ago. Her head lowered, her fingers twisted together, the disappointment on her was a stark contrast to her shamelessness from earlier.

She looked pitiful.

This girl was certainly suspicious looking. But she also didnt look like some technological spy sent from some special organization.

Xu Fei walked over to her and asked her gently, Do you have family?

Seeing that your Boss Gu is my family was about to come out of Lin Xi the very next second, Xu Fei quickly emphasized, Family other than Boss Gu. Where are they? Do you have their contact information? Or perhaps the way to get in touch with your mother?

Xu Fei did not entire write off what Lin Xi had said. Especially when his boss had acted differently today

Hearing that, Lin Xi didnt say anything. She merely shook her head with her mouth pinched shut tightly.

Remembering what his boss had said, Xu Fei waved his hand and said, Nevermind that. Its alright if you dont want to tell me. Follow me. Let me find you a place to stay for now.

You mean I can stay here? Lin Xi looked up, her eyes beaming.

Its just temporary.

Lin Xi conveniently ignored what Xu Fei said last. She bowed at Xu Fei with a big smile on her. Thank you for your trouble.

-- This girl was quite polite. She didnt seem like just any child off the street.

Thought Xu Fei to himself.

Why dont you stay here for now. I have some more work to take care of and I will be back at the end of the work day.

Lin Xi nodded. Stopping Xu Fei again, she asked, Can I use the bathroom?

Lin Xi noticed that her hands were a little dirty when she was holding onto Gu Shaos sleeve.

Sure. Not wanting her to roam around the place, Xu Fei had a female employee showed Lin Xi the bathroom.

After walking into the bathroom, Lin Xi walked in front of the mirror. She was shocked by her own disheveled look: She hair was tied up messily. If one was to look carefully, there were even some cobwebs on it. Her clothes were covered in dust and there were oil stains on her sleeve. And, her face was indescribably dirty.

All these happened when she was dodging Zhang Qiang. She had been so anxious the entire trip that she had forgotten about her own image.

This was what she looked like when she met her real father for the first time?!

No wonder he seemed so resentful toward her.

Lin Xi covered up her face with her palms. She had been too rash

***

Inside the bathroom.

Lin Xi cleaned her face, redid her hair, and pulled out a set of clean clothes from her luggage.

When Lin Xi walked back out, she saw the surprise look on the female employee from earlier: This girl was surprisingly pretty! And, her look

Inside of the car heading over to the airport.

Chen Zhiyang learned of the incident through Xu Fei on WeChat: Even if he had 10 brains, he would never have guessed that their boss would have a child that age coming out of nowhere.

Professor, about the incident. I mean the girl from earlier. Do you think we should contact the cops? asked Chen Zhiyang.

If it was a plan to set them up, they need to be prepared as well.

NTN, as the heart of electronic technology, was an important existence. Their professor himself was privy to much key technology and information. As such, many in the past few years had tried to approach the profession with the intention of stealing information.

They should not rule out the possibility of one of those parties sending over an underage child just to lower his guard.

Gu Shao didnt say anything.

His finger that was drumming lightly on the armrest of the seat betrayed that he wasnt as indifferent as he seemed.

-- There was a certain memory in Gu Shaos mind that he was hazy about.

15 years ago, he was just Second Young Master Gu, the second son of Gu Qinghua and not Professor Gu as he was today and the CEO of NTN Technology Center.

He was able to dodge his enemys set up at a planned banquet but not entirely.

Half conscious, his assistant had helped him into a room and he had intended to sleep it off. Something, however, happened that night.

By the time Gu Shao woke up the next day, all of the evidences had been wiped clean and everything appeared normal.

Gu Shao never thought about the incident again after he had taken care of those behind the plan.

He couldnt be certain whether something else had happened that night. If someone else had entered into the room and had intimacy with him.

He, however, did not rule out that possibility.
