I Have Decided to Go Look for My Father

Chapter 3: In a cliche angst novel (3)

Lin Xi ran a fever that night.

When she was half conscious, she felt that she was being roasted on a rack and, in addition, someone was rotating her and brushing hot paste over her.

She felt awful.

She felt that she might die.

While she was half conscious, many crazy images entered into her head.

They became more and more clear.

Lin Xi had a very odd dream.

She dreamt that this world and this family that she was in was a novel.

An clich angst genre novel with radical moral standards. Song Kexin, her mother, was the female lead of this novel and Lin Yize, her father, was the male lead.

Much like the beginning of many clich novels, the female lead had a father who was addicted to gambling and had a mounting debt. The female lead, for the sake of repaying the debt for her father, had no choice but to become the replacement lover for the male lead.

Before the male lead had fallen in love with the female lead, he had belittled and was abusive to her in all sorts of ways. He even offered her up to the scums whom he had business relationships with for them to have their turns. The female lead was able to escape from the scums but wasnt able to get out because of the drink that they had given to her. Finally, she had intimate relationship with some strange man.

The male lead only realized that he was in love with the female lead after that.

The male lead regretted deeply for what had happened to the female lead and begged her for her forgiveness.

Under the male leads sincere apology and humble pursuit, the female lead, who had always been in love with the male lead secretly, finally chose to forgive him and the male lead also expressed that he would accept the child that the female lead was carrying as his own.

Everything was perfect.

But, over time, both the male and female leads began to be irked by this child. The existence of this child was a reminder of their past. The longer it had gone on, the worse they felt.

Especially after their own child was born, the other child was, doubtless, a blemish that they were not able to overlook.

Unfortunately, Lin Xi was that child that should not be born.

Words upon words and some fragmented scenes quickly flashed through Lin Xis mind.

Gradually, the words between twisted in her mind.

After a long while, Lin Xi finally struggled to open up her eyes in bed.

A splitting headache followed. Lin Xi tried to open up her mouth but her throat was so dried it felt like it had been burnt by fire. Her body, too, felt like it had been weighted down and she could hardly breath.

Lin Xi struggled to picked up her cellphone by the bed and took a look at the time. She was surprised to find that she had been unconscious for over 24 hours.

She felt very dizzy.  

That being said, her eyes were clear and, if one was to look carefully, there was shock in them as well.

Lin Xi thought about the detailed content of the novel over and over again. If everything was true, then her current situation and the way that she was being treated by her family would all make sense.

After all, she was an outsider to this family. In addition, she was the blemish in the romance between Lin Yize and Song Kexin.

Lin Xi balled herself up inside her little blanket.

She didnt end well in the novel either.

In the extras of that novel, Lin Xi was envious of her own sister. She was envious that Lin Anxin had taken from her the love from the family, the attention from others in school, the male god that she was fond of, and she continued to turn into a villainess. She would smear Lin Anxins reputation in front of others and set her up with every means possible.

When all was revealed, Lin Xi was smeared by the entire internet and would receive lots of angry words and threats from strangers every day and also well-hated at school. Finally, everything that she had done backfired on her. She failed to set up Lin Anxin but was strangled to death in some gloomy and dirty alleyway.

Lin Xi frowned: She would turn into a villainess because of Lin Anxin? And try to set her up?

That made no sense to her whatsoever. She wasnt someone who would bother to do such things. And, truth be told, the evil plans that she had carried out in the novel was like child play in her eyes.

***

In addition, there was an extra for said novel: Lin Yize finally became powerful enough and found that man whom his loved one had lost her v*rginity to. He retaliated him with all his might and was finally able to bring about his downfall both in terms of his reputation and his wealth.

With the disappearance of Lin Xi and that man, the last of the unpleasantness between the male and female leads finally went away altogether.

***

Really is Gu Shao? muttered Lin Xi to herself.

If everything was the way it was, that man would be her real father.

She was, however, very surprised that her real father was Gu Shao.

--- Lin Xis eyes landed on the newest issue of a Chinese technology magazine. Gu Shao was the man on the cover.

An elite in the electronic field in China. Gu Shao was the boss among bosses.
