I Have Decided to Go Look for My Real Father

Finding My Father - CH 088

Chapter 88 - Why did he feel that his boss had been very out of character as of late? (4)

On the other end, Xu Fei, who was swiping his friend's circle, saw another article shared by his boss.

It was another public soft-skill article: The Importance of Parents Leading by Example.

Xu Fei's finger who was clicking on "Like" quivered a little, "......"

Why did he feel that his boss change of style was a bit abrupt?

The key was that his boss even left a message under the soft-skill article. "Only when one is outstanding can they set a good example for their children."

What was it that his boss was boasting about in between the lines?

Was that the difference when one had a child? Was his boss going to start canvassing in his friend's circle in a few days' time?

Xu Fei grumbled to himself but, little did he know, what he said this one day would come true someday.

Gu Xi was asked to go talk to the dean at his office the next day.

Also summoned along with her were the other 7 individuals who would also be participating in the Joint Science Competition.

The dean started talking about the competition when everyone had arrived.

"Some of you here had competed in the City B's High School Joint Science Competition in the past and some haven't. But I trust that all of you had heard about this competition. It wasn't a nationally standardized competition but it is still one that draw a lot of attention."

After a slight pause, the dean looked over at all of them and carried on, "Similarly, this competition will also be a very meaningful experience for all of you. I urge you to treat it seriously and give it your best. Granted, the fact that you had been chosen to represent our school means that you are already the best students of your grade. I trust that you will be able to earn good scores and bring good outcome and glory for our school....."

The dean was not even done with his official motivational speech when Gu Xi heard a soft "tsk" from next to her.

It wasn't difficult to figure out who that was from.

She turned her head and, sure enough, saw Sheng Xiuyan with his blank and this-is-giving-me-goosebump look.

Surprisingly enough, the boy standing next to Sheng Xiuyan had the exact same look on him.

Here she thought that Sheng Xiuyan would for sure be the only "otherworldly" person who didn't even bother to put up a front.

Noticing the look on the two of them, the dean gave them a stare and said, "You two better be well-prepared. Stop with that lackadaisical attitude.

"In addition, you are there to participate in the competition. Don't cause any troubles."

The second part was still aimed toward Sheng Xiuyan and the boy next to him.

From the dean's understanding of the two boys. Each one of them was enough to bring about sufficient headache. He had no idea what sort of fresh h3ll they would bring when put together with each other.

The two called out by the dean exchanged a look.

"You heard him," said Sheng Xiuyan to Gu Chenyi, who was standing next to him, coldly.

Gu Chenyi retorted, "I think he was more talking to you. You should be the one to watch out for it."

"You don't need to worry about me. As for you, you got too much free time" asked Sheng Xiuyan, referring to the fact of why Gu Chenyi was joining this competition this time. Was he there for the fun of it or to pull their legs?

Hearing that, Gu Chenyi hrumphed unhappily. Then, recalling his own purpose, he felt complacent all over again. "It pleases me."

There was no way he would enter into such a stupid competition had Xixi not be a part of it.

Lucky he was quick to act; otherwise, Gu Yanxiao would have robbed him of this opportunity.

Gu Chenyi smiled proudly.

The dean ignored the two "problematic valedictorians" and looked away. He carried on to elaborate on the key items about the competition.

"As the unified examination had been delayed, we will not have a lot of time to prepare for this competition. As such, the school will not be arranging for study sessions. Here are test questions from the past and predictive ones for this year. Pace yourself and study on your own."

The dean pointed at the stacks of books on the table next to her. These were the gift package prepared for them by the school before the competition.
