I Have Decided to Go Look for My Father - Chapter 72
[Chapter 72 She Wanted Me First, Right?]
Staring at the phone for a few seconds, the ringing continued.
After a moment of hesitation, Gu Xi finally answered the phone.
“Hello.” Gu Xi spoke first, with a bit of caution in her voice.
However, Song Kexin on the other end of the phone didn’t seem to hear the vigilance and bluntness in Gu Xi’s tone, and said in a gentle voice, “Is it the past? I’m mother.”
In the past 14 years in the Lin family, Song Kexin has never Having spoken to Gu Xi in such a tone, he would never call himself ‘mother’ in front of her.
So, hearing Song Kexin’s words, Gu Xi was not surprised at all, but felt unfamiliar.
Without asking how Song Kexin knew her number, Gu Xi directly asked the other party’s intention: “What’s the matter with you?”
Hearing Gu Xi’s words, Song Kexin seemed stunned for a moment, and then said: “Last time I saw it in Pingjingshan. When I got to you, the time was too rushed, and I didn’t have time to talk to you for a while…”
After a pause, Song Kexin said again: “It’s like this, after you were taken away by that Mr. Gu, the family members, mother, Dad, grandma, grandma, Xinxin, we miss you very much.”
Hearing Song Kexin’s words, Gu Xi was not at all excited except for the doubts in her heart.
On the other side, without hearing Gu Xi’s response, Song Kexin’s eyes darkened, and she pursed her lips before continuing to put on a gentle smile and said, “Do you have time this weekend? Mom and Dad will pick you up, our family. People meet, get together, and have a meal at home.”
“This time, grandma went out to play, and brought you gifts. You and Xinxin are alone. It happened that you came home and asked grandma to give it to you in person.”
Song Kexin I thought she said so, Gu Xi should not refuse.
As a result, he heard Gu Xi reply almost without thinking: “No.” After a
pause, Gu Xi said again: “You don’t have to pick me up, I won’t go back to Lin’s house.”
After speaking, Gu Xi hung up the phone directly.
Hearing the busy tone of ‘dudu’ on the phone, Song Kexin was dumbfounded, and the gentle expression on her face gradually cracked at this moment.
After taking down the phone, Song Kexin stared at the phone screen with an unbelievable look on her face, and she was even a little unacceptable—she didn’t expect that Gu Xi would reject her kindness, and even hung up the phone.
Song Kexin’s eyes flashed with displeasure, but, thinking of the reason why she had to bring Gu Xi back, Song Kexin shook her head and dialed Gu Xi’s number again.
——Looking
at the phone ringing again, Gu Xi frowned and answered the phone again.
This time, without waiting for Gu Xi to speak, Song Kexin said first: “Xi Xi, don’t hang up the phone in a hurry, mom has something very important to tell you.”
“You are indeed not my child and Yize’s child. It was an accident to have you, and my mother also wanted to abort this child, but when she arrived at the hospital, her mother regretted it and couldn’t bear you to disappear like this, so she discussed with Yize, kept you, and raised you.”
“Mom has indeed neglected you a little over the years. This is because my mother can’t get over the hurdle in her heart. At this point, my mother is sorry for you, but my love for you is the same as my love for Xinxin. I don’t know how to express it to you…”
Song Kexin spoke emotionally, but Gu Xi listened with a blank face – if he hadn’t known the plot of the novel, Gu Xi would have almost believed what Song Kexin said.
“If you have nothing else to say, then I’ll hang up.” Gu Xi said.
“Don’t worry about the past,” Song Kexin’s voice was a little anxious, and then quickly said: “We didn’t tell you this before, and we didn’t want you to have a psychological burden. We hope you can grow up as happy as Xinxin. But now you are also When you’re older, you have the right to know the truth.”
“Come home with mom this weekend, and we’ll tell you everything, okay?”
— not good.
Gu Xi secretly refused in her heart.
The bloody things that happened between Song Kexin and Lin Yize at the beginning, without the other party telling them, Gu Xi knew it in the novel, not to mention, she didn’t think she could hear the truth through Song Kexin’s mouth at all.
“My father told me all those things.” Gu Xi said.
Of course, this ‘dad’ refers to Gu Shao.
——Gu Shao did not hide from Gu Xi what happened in the past, including some things that happened at Gu’s house at that time.
However, some details that are “not suitable for children” or not very good, Gu Shao cut down when telling her, but this will not affect Gu Xi’s judgment of right and wrong about the whole incident.
Hearing Gu Xi’s words, Song Kexin’s face became tense, and he hurriedly retorted: “What Gu Shao told you is not true.”
After that, as if afraid that Gu Xi would reject him again, Song Kexin hurriedly said: “Come home, I will tell you the whole truth, and Mr. Gu, I have some important things about him here, don’t you want to know?”
Song Kexin threw the bait.
This is her double insurance. If Gu Xi has been ‘cheated’ by Gu Shao and subconsciously begins to lean towards Gu Shao, then, after hearing this, Gu Xi will definitely give in.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Song Kexin
said this, Gu Xi replied firmly, “I don’t want to know.” Gu Xi hung up the phone.
Then, Gu Xi pulled the number into the blacklist.
After thinking for a while, Gu Xi then added the numbers of Lin Yize and the others to the blacklist.
After doing all this, Gu Xicai let go of the phone in his hand as if he was relieved.
Gu Xi silently retracted herself into the quilt and buried herself in the darkness. Gu Xi was stunned for a while before muttering to herself, “Nothing to be sad about.”
— Yes, she was not sad at all.
Not worth it or not…
Gu Xi whispered repeatedly in his head.
…
On the other hand, Gu Shao dealt with some family affairs in the study before returning to his room.
Gu Shao was about to rest when he heard a knock on the door.
It was very quiet, if it weren’t for the quietness of the night, Gu Shao probably wouldn’t have heard the knock on the door.
When Gu Shao opened the door, he saw that Gu Xi was wearing a nightgown and slippers, standing at the door of his room eagerly, the expression on his face was not right.
“What’s wrong?”
Gu Shao was about to ask, but he heard Gu Xi speak first, and muttered: “She didn’t want me first, right?”
——It wasn’t that she wanted to reject the other party or block the other party, it was The other party didn’t want her first.
Hearing Gu Xi’s words, Gu Shao’s eyes narrowed, almost instantly guessing who Gu Xi was referring to as ‘she’.
Gu Shao’s eyes flashed fiercely, but when Gu Xi raised his head to look over, he concealed this anger.
Gu Shao leaned down and looked at Gu Xi’s line of sight, then put his hand on Gu Xi’s side face, then lowered his voice, gave Gu Xi a positive answer, and said, “It’s not your fault.”
In just five words , but the entanglement in Gu Xi’s heart dissipated a lot.
Gu Xi nodded and looked at Gu Shao again: “Then you…”
Will you not want me?
Gu Xi half opened her mouth and did not ask.
However, Gu Shao understood her meaning, opened his mouth, and said firmly: “No.”
Then, Gu Shao said word by word: “I will always be your father, and this place will always be your home.”
Listen When Gu Shao said this, Gu Xi smiled.
Then, Gu Xi did something that he thought was quite humiliating – his brain became hot, and without thinking, he crashed into Gu Shao’s arms.
“I will help you in the future.”
Gu Shao: “…” I don’t want to grow old so fast.
“That…” Gu Xi spoke again hesitantly.
“What?” Gu Shao asked patiently.
“She just called me…” Gu Xi told Gu Shao about Song Kexin’s phone call.
“I blocked Song, uh, the numbers of all the members of the Lin family.” Gu Xi said, although he was explaining something to Gu Shao, but Gu Xi’s tone was somewhat uncertain.
Hearing this, Gu Shao just raised his hand and rubbed Gu Xi’s head, and said, “It doesn’t matter.”
At this time, Gu Shao’s face was invisible, but a faint smile flashed in his eyes.
After all, she was Gu Xi’s biological mother, and that couldn’t be changed.
If it weren’t for a child who was still underage, it would be inconvenient to express some views too clearly.
Gu Shao wanted to praise Gu Xi.
He felt that it was very good for Gu Xi to do so.
“Xixi.”
“Huh?”
Gu Shao thought of something, opened his mouth, but hesitated for a while, and finally did not ask.
After changing the subject, Gu Shao rubbed Gu Xi’s head again and said, “You study hard, if you get good grades in the final exam this time, I will take you to a place.”
Hearing Gu Shao’s words, Gu Xi’s eyes widened .
As soon as it lit up, he looked up at each other.
“Where?” Gu Xi asked curiously.
“Take you to the annual meeting.” Gu Shao said.
“Annual meeting…”
Seeing Gu Xi’s unsurprised appearance, Gu Shao raised his eyebrows: “Why, don’t you want to go?”
“No,” Gu Xi shook his head, and smiled at Gu Shao again, saying, “I want to go!”
However, at first, Gu Xi still I thought that Gu Shao was going to take her to NTN to visit and study, but it was not what she was looking forward to the most, it was just a little bit different.
“Go to sleep.” Gu Shao looked at Gu Xi softly and said.
“Okay.”
“Good night Dad.”
“Good night.”
After that, before Gu Xi left, Gu Shao emphasized in a serious tone: “Tomorrow, you are not allowed to play games with Gu Yanxiao and those two.
” Gu Feng went to the ‘pre-exam study room’ that the old man had prepared for the three of them and saw the situation, Gu Shao still felt a bit of a headache – he was thinking secretly about how to separate Gu Xi, Gu Chenyi and Gu Yanxiao. separate.
In short, I must not let those two boys affect my daughter’s study.
——Gu
Shao’s movements were very fast.
In the evening, when the three of Gu Xi came back from school, had dinner, and went to their study room, they found that there were already a few more partitions inside, dividing the desks of the three of Gu Xi into three parts. a small compartment.
Although this partition was seriously complained and accused by Gu Xi and the three, but after being physically separated, the three people’s learning efficiency has improved a lot.
–
It’s the weekend again soon.
Grandpa Gu didn’t miss the weekend, and arranged a full weekend review schedule for the three of them.
Just when Gu Chenyi lamented that his weekend was miserable, the old man Shen came and brought Sheng Xiuyan with him.
The reason is to take classes.
“Didn’t you arrange weekend study content and pre-exam review courses for the three of your family? It’s just that, let this kid in my family listen to me.” Old Man Shen said to Old Man Gu with a laugh.
As a result, Old Man Gu was greeted with a blank eye: “My class, what are you listening to? If you want to review, you won’t find a place by yourself?”
Hearing Old Man Gu’s words, Old Man Shen was not angry, and together with Old Man Gu Haha said, “Who are our two families with whom? If it was released before, before our family moved, wouldn’t our two families be in a door-to-door relationship, just take a class together, don’t be so cynical, boy. Well.”
After speaking, the old man Shen said again: “Also, the courses are all arranged, one is also listened to, and two are also listened to. Isn’t it more cost-effective to have one more in our family.”
“…” The old man Gu was still suspicious. Looking at the old man Shen: I don’t understand what this old guy is playing, but, with this stubborn posture, this person can do something right.
“Besides, isn’t it good to study together, make progress together, and get high grades together.”
Mr. Shen agreed with Mr. Gu.
——This time, the test is to be ranked in the city, and the other two old comrades-in-arms’ children are studying in other middle schools.
Before, Mr. Gu boasted in front of the other party that his grandson must be better than the other party’s test.
Mr. Shen was present at the time and made the same harsh words.
The two old men had the same ‘enemy’ for the time being, so they decided to temporarily unite the front and agree to the outside world.
Old Man Gu glanced at Old Man Shen, then at Boy Sheng next to him, and finally nodded, reluctantly agreeing to the other party’s ‘application for taking a class’.
On the other hand, Gu Feng, who was resting on the side, silently complained in his heart: The three of them were already ‘happy’ enough, but this time, it’s better. If there’s another kid from Sheng Yi’s family, I guess I don’t even think about reviewing it well.
Over there, the four of them went to the study room to study for the exam.
Here, Mr. Shen mysteriously took out a box he was carrying.
“I brought some good wine this time, let’s have a drink later?”
Hearing this, Old Man Gu leaned over and glanced suspiciously.
It doesn’t matter if you take a look, but the old man is completely stunned.
——This bottle of wine was seen by Mr. Gu in Mr. Shen before. It has been a good guy for decades, and it is definitely Mr. Shen’s collection.
I usually don’t let people touch it, but today I brought it directly?
“You old guy must have done something, let me help you settle it?” Old Man Gu squinted his eyes, looked at Old Man Shen suspiciously, and asked.
“Of course not!”
“What is that?” There must be something wrong with being courteous.
“Don’t allow me to be generous.” Old Shen blew his beard and glared.
Hearing this, Old Man Gu raised his eyebrows: “Then why don’t you take out the bottle you put the newspaper in the safe?” That was the best wine in Old Man Shen’s hand.
Hearing this, Old Man Shen was stunned for a while, but then his eyes rolled and he laughed: “Haha, it’s not impossible, but ah, not now.”
After that, Old Man Shen pretended to count his fingers. He said again: “Wait another 10 years, and then I will definitely bring it to you.”
Old Man Gu: “…” I still think that this old guy has done something.
——On
the other hand, the four Gu Xi did their homework for a while in the study room, and the teacher hired by Mr. Gu with a high salary came.
Originally, when I was invited to do the ‘one-on-one’ review before the exam, the teacher only thought that the children in this family were not solid in their usual studies.
Therefore, the teacher only brought regular sprint test questions and remedial lesson plans.
“This test paper is specially produced by me. The content is relatively comprehensive. You all do it yourself first, and we will talk about it after you have finished it.”
The main purpose of the teacher asking the four of them to do this test paper is to give Gu Xi and them a thorough understanding, to see their level and deficiencies, and then she will teach them again.
The teacher thought about it well, but she never expected that when the test paper was finished, it was not she who taught them a lesson, but the group of children in front of her who taught her a lesson…
