I Have Decided to Go Look for My Real Father

Finding My Father - CH 037

Chapter 37 - Lin Xi's household register still laid with the Lin family. (2)

The next day, by the time Lin Xi had gotten up, Aunty Mei had already prepared breakfast for her and Gu Shao.

After dinner, Lin Xi stayed home as usual and Aunty Mei went out in the middle of the day.

When she returned that afternoon, Aunty Mei was carrying with her bags and bags of stuff. There were still two more delivery personnel behind her with two boxes of stuff.

Lin Xi had initially thought they were Aunty Mei's luggage but she saw Aunty Mei pulled out a box and handed it over to her with a smile.

"Little Miss Xi, this is a new cellphone for you. Take a look and see if you like it."

This new cellphone looked like one of the latest models. It was pink and there was a cute bow on its back. It looked to be custom made.

Before Lin Xi had recovered from the pink, she saw Aunty Mei pointed at the other boxes and said, "These, too, are for you, little Miss Xi.

"Over here are clothes and those are school supplies. Little Miss Xi is about to start school soon, right? These should be of use to you."

Aunty Mei opened up the boxes and all Lin Xi could see was a sea of pink.

Pink clothes, pink shoes, pink hair ties, pink backpack, pink stationary pouch... pink pens...

With the exception of a few white ones, the rest were all pink. Dark pink, light pink, bright pink, dim pink... all sorts of pink.

"You take the stationaries with you. Grandma Mei will wash these clothes for you first before you wear them," said Aunty Mei.

Lin Xi finally recollected herself.

"Thank you, Aunty Mei." How could she possibly turn down such passion?

But...

"How much did they cost? Let me pay you back," said Lin Xi.

As much as Grandma Mei seemed to be an acquaintance of Gu Shao, Lin Xi couldn't just accept all these things from her.

Grandma Mei smiled and explained it to her. "Grandma Mei did not spend a penny. I was just there to bring then back here."

These were all gifts from the few over at the Gu family. She merely went over to bring them back after she received their call.

The cellphone was from Old Mr. Gu.

Old Mr. Gu stared at Lin Xi's photo for half the night and finally noticed that her cellphone screen was cracked. He made a call and had someone looked for a new cellphone for Lin Xi in the middle of the night and he asked for the prettiest one too.

***

Upon hearing that, Lin Xi assumed that Aunty Mei had bought them with Gu Shao's money.

The only thing that she wasn't sure about was whether the sea of pink was Gu Shao's taste or that of Aunty Mei.

Looked back over at the sea of pink, Lin Xi couldn't help but rubbed her eyes.
