I Have Decided to Go Look for My Father - Chapter 11

[Chapter 11 Dad’s Breakfast]

Before having breakfast, Gu Shao paid a day’s salary and asked Xu Fei to return the aunt.

Seeing the suffocating aunt leave, Lin Xi breathed a sigh of relief.

After Gu Shao left, Lin Xi checked the email again.

In the past few days, Lin Xi has received email replies from four training schools, mainly training institutions in mathematics, physics, chemistry and English.

The conditions offered by several companies are similar. If Lin Xi participates in the competition on behalf of the training institution, the prize money of the competition will go to Lin Xi, and the training institution will give her an additional reward of twice the bonus.

If it is a competition without a bonus, the training institution will also give her a bonus ranging from 6,000 to 18,000 according to her winning status and ranking.

If she gets the bonus, she can pay 3,000 yuan for living expenses to Gu Shao, and save the remaining 3,000 yuan.

Unfortunately, this type of competition is not held every month. Most of the competitions are held only once a year, and there are not many competitions with real gold content.

And Lin Xi looked at the competition list provided by the training institution. The most recent math competition is next month.

Lin Xi bit his fingers, rather regretful.

After logging out of the mailbox, Lin Xi landed on an information website again.

This website has the latest competition news. In addition to ordinary student subject competitions, there are also many information about scientific and technological innovation competitions held outside the school or facing the society.

Lin Xi’s eyes swept across the competition list one by one, not wanting to miss any of them.

A project marked in bold and red is really hard to ignore.

“The first Tianchuang Science and Technology Innovation Competition?” Lin Xi looked at the name of the competition and the release date, and couldn’t help but click in.

It starts with a brief introduction to the competition similar to an advertisement, followed by specific entry instructions.

This is a competition mainly aimed at scientific and technological research and development of ideas. It includes four sections: environmental protection, medical health, artificial intelligence and future technology. Participants can choose one of the sections to submit scientific and technological innovation projects, and they will be divided into four sections. A set of winning groups will be selected, and at least one of the four winning groups will be selected for further development, and the other groups will also receive certain marketing opportunities.

And each group will also receive a bonus…

“1 million?!”

Looking at the numbers in the bonus column, Lin Xi’s eyes widened and his jaw almost dropped.

Rubbing his eyes, he counted it carefully again to confirm that he was not mistaken, it was indeed 1 million.

As long as you participate in a competition, you can get a prize of 1 million, isn’t it too cool?

Lin Xi couldn’t help but muttered in his heart.

If she has this amount of money, she can not only use it all the way to finish her studies, maybe she can save a little and save some of it. In the future, if Gu Shao is really hurt by Lin Yize, the two of them can still use that money. Live for a while.

Lin Xi had already begun to imagine a better life after receiving the bonus and the planned distribution of the bonus.

After a smirk, Lin Xi shook his head to wake himself up.

——If it is a contest with a very high gold content, the bonus of 1 million is not an exaggeration. The benefits brought by a good technical project may sometimes be far more than 1 million.

Therefore, this bonus amount is not unusual.

But this also means that the difficulty of the competition itself is completely different from other competitions.

This ‘Tianchuang Contest’ is mainly aimed at not students, but professionals with certain experience or scientific research teams in universities.

The biggest difference between it and ordinary youth science and technology innovation competitions is that most of those youth science and technology competitions require only an innovative idea or a theoretical model, but this competition requires real results and finished products.

This is not what Lin Xi, a poor junior high school student with nothing but a brain, can think of.

Looking at the competition prize money with regret, Lin Xi sighed, exited the competition website, returned to reality, and re-watched other competitions for middle school students.

After watching it for a while, Lin Xi locked in two competitions: a transportation-themed innovation competition and a general type of new technology innovation competition for middle school students.

After the confirmation, Lin Xi entered the registration application page.

He filled in his name and age normally…

When it came time to go to school, Lin Xi was in trouble.

She should not be able to go back to the school she went to before, but she has no other school to fill in.

This item is required, and it is impossible to submit an application if it is not filled in.

Lin Xi sat in front of the computer and struggled for a long time, filling in the names of other schools, but after hesitating, he deleted it.

In the end, Lin Xi had no choice but to close the registration page.

When he logged out of the webpage, Lin Xi couldn’t help but glanced at the message bar in the lower right corner of the webpage. At this time, almost all the messages that popped up were about the ‘Tianchuang Contest’.

Due to the high prize money, when the news of the ‘Tianchuang Contest’ came out, it not only shocked Lin Xi, but also caused a lot of waves in this circle.

Some people started discussing this contest in the website forum, and some people even set up a special forum page for the ‘Tianchuang Contest’.

Lin Xi couldn’t hold back and clicked in.

At this point, there are already dozens of posts, everything.

[Come in and tell me, let me see how many people like me participate in the competition for the prize money.

]

[Q: If I win the award, can I really get the qualification for development?

】

[We are a design team and have a very good project. We hope to find a team with development and manufacturing experience and strength to cooperate and come in to chat with intentions.

】

【The roommates are all abroad, is anyone forming a team to participate in the competition?

]

[I have rich experience in scientific research and recruit teammates online, if you are the one.

]

…

Because it involves the finished project, it is impossible for one person to complete it, so there are many posts about finding teammates online like this.

Lin Xi casually clicked one to enter, and the landlord was chatting with others in full swing.

It seems that the chat is almost over. At this time, the landlord released a group account: [This is my newly created group. If you are interested, you can add it. It’s okay to form a group or not, join in, we can chat together, and by the way You can always exchange information about the competition.

】

The group leader’s words are relaxed.

Lin Xi’s head twitched, he entered the numbers on his mobile phone, and sent out an application to join the group.

After seeing the application, there was no response, and Lin Xi didn’t care.

Soon this little episode that had a convulsion in his head was left behind by Lin Xi.

——In

the afternoon, because Gu Shao told her not to cook dinner yesterday, Lin Xi just made a few noodles and waited for Gu Shao to come back.

As a result, after waiting for a long time, Gu Shao did not come back.

Thinking about what he was going to tell Gu Shao, Lin Xi didn’t want to go to sleep, so he just waited in the living room, his eyes staring blankly at the direction of the entrance door.

After that, Lin Xi didn’t know when he fell asleep.

…

There was a product test today, and Gu Shao stayed late at the NTN Center.

It was almost 12 o’clock when he got home.

The house was dark and very quiet, such a familiar scene of returning home made Gu Shao almost forget that there was another child at home.

Gu Shao thought that the child had already gone to bed and didn’t care.

As a result, as soon as I walked through the living room, I saw people curled up on the sofa.

Lin Xi, who was asleep, obviously didn’t feel anyone approaching.

As if feeling the cold, Lin Xi shrank on the sofa, and then tried his best to rub his feet into the gap of the sofa.

He was still holding the cell phone in his arms, and inside it was Lin Xi who was going to call Gu Shao, but finally held back the call that he hadn’t made.

Seeing this, Gu Shao frowned: Is there no bed?

Want to sleep on the couch?

But now, waking up, not waking up, and how to wake up has become a problem that troubles Gu Shao.

Fortunately, at this moment, Lin Xi rolled over and almost fell off the sofa, then woke himself up.

Lin Xi opened his eyes in a daze, but when he opened his eyes, he saw Gu Shao standing in front of him.

Lin Xi was startled instinctively and almost fell off the sofa again.

“Gu Gu, Gu… uh.” Lin Xi woke up and called Gu Shao quickly, “Dad.”

He smiled guilty and said hello, “Dad, you’re back.”

Gu Shao looked at Lin Xi: “Go to your room to sleep.”

“Oh.” Lin Xi nodded, obediently got up from the sofa, and went back to his room sleepily.

He was still holding the sofa pillow that he forgot to put down.

——After

entering the room, Lin Xi got into the bed directly, and was about to fall asleep when his eyes suddenly widened: It’s over, she forgot to tell Gu Shao what she was going to say!

Lin Xi wanted to talk to Gu Shao again, but remembering that Gu Shao had a serious tone when he spoke to her just now, as if he was not very happy, Lin Xi nestled in the quilt, shrank his neck cowardly, and finally gave up .

The end result was that Lin Xi was thinking about things, stared at the ceiling with wide eyes, and didn’t fall asleep until the middle of the night.

——Thinking

of what he was going to tell Gu Shao the next day, Lin Xi set the alarm clock and woke up early.

The unexpected result was that Gu Shao was earlier than her.

And also made breakfast.

For breakfast, she made the cake she didn’t eat yesterday, and a bowl of noodles.

“Eat.” Gu Shao motioned for Lin Xi to sit down to eat, his tone was as cold as ever.

Meeting Lin Xi’s surprised eyes, Gu Shao did not explain: He just felt that a child should not be allowed to cook, so he got up and did it in advance.

“Good morning, Dad.”

“Thank you, Dad!” In addition to being flattering, this thank you also contained some genuine feelings.

So flattered.

When she was at Lin’s house, no one would cook her something to eat. Even if she missed the meal time for various reasons, she could only sneak into the kitchen to get something to feed her.

Lin Xi sat down at the dining table, grabbed chopsticks and ate the noodles first.

Lin Xi was already prepared, even if it was unpalatable, she would still be grateful to show that it was delicious.

As a result, after one bite, this bowl of noodles was surprisingly not unpalatable.

It should be said that it is delicious, it is the taste she likes.

——Seeing

Lin Xi eating noodles, did he secretly glance at him with his eyes, looking like he was hesitant to say anything, Gu Shao asked, “What do you want to say?”

Lin Xi was organizing his words, but was interrupted by Gu Shaoyi, and the language he wanted was completely messed up.

“That, it’s my father, can you take me to school? The previous school… is a little far away. I want to change to another school.” Lin Xi looked at Gu Shao expectantly: Parents need to come forward for admission, and she certainly won’t Maybe go to my mother or Lin Yize.

Hearing this, Gu Shao paused in his hand holding the chopsticks.

“…” He has absolutely no experience in bringing children, and he seems to have completely ignored this matter: Lin Xi is still a fourteen-year-old junior high school student and needs to go to school.

Hiding a trace of embarrassment in his eyes, Gu Shao replied expressionlessly, “Yes.” In

exchange for Lin Xi’s excitement.
