I Have Decided to Go Look for My Real Father

Finding My Father - CH 089

Chapter 89 - What happened? Why did Gu Shao sign up to the competition? (1)

"Xi, ahem, Schoolmate Gu Xi?"

Hearing her own name, Gu Xi was taken aback a little. She turned and noticed that the boy who was standing next to Sheng Xiuyan earlier was now standing next to her. He was smiling at her.

For some inexplicable reasons, his look immediately reminded Gu Xi of a husky.

Gu Xi, "......"

What a silly smile.

Just a moment ago he was such a handsome boy and now...... was he actually a fool?

Gu Xi grumbled and, as though she was avoiding some strange person, subtly scooted away from him a little.

"Something's the matter?" asked Gu Xi. Her look clearly stated I-don't-know-you and who-the-heck-are-you?

Gu Chenyi's smile stiffened a little when he saw that.

He had almost forgotten that Xixi didn't know who they were yet.

Giving his second uncle's personality, he probably never mentioned to Gu Xi the rest of the family.

His grandpa had said that her days with her previous family were less than ideal and, worried that she might be traumatized by the idea of "family members", the Gu family had been very cautious when it came to her.

Even when Old Mr. Gu was dying to meet this granddaughter, he only dared to came and take a peek once. He dared not just abruptly show up in front of her.

As such, Gu Chenyi dicided against telling Gu Xi that they were related at least until they were introduced under official capacity. He didn't want her startled or feel disturbed.

– But that was okay. He could still take the opportunity and earn her fondness ahead of time.

Gu Chenyi was very proud of his own idea.

And then, he got another stare from the dean.

"What I am telling you now is very important. Listen carefully." Pausing a little, the dean carried on to say, "I am not going to divide you up into teams right now. We will hold a 4-subject examination tomorrow and then the teacher will split you up into teams depending on the outcome.

"Now go back to your classes taking these examination questions with you."

When the dean wad done talking, Gu Xi, too, went over to pick up her examination papers.

Lo and behold, as soon as she reached out her hand, her gift pack was picked up by someone else.

Gu Xi's lips twitched when she looked over at Gu Chenyi next to her and reminded him, "Classmate, you took two sets." One of them belonged to her.

"I know." Gu Chenyi smiled at Gu Xi. "They are heavy. I'll carry them for you."

Gu Xi frowned a little. "......" They were not light, but not heavy to a point that she wasn't able to carry them.

Besides, she didn't think she and this "enthusiastic" classmate had met yet.

Before Gu Xi could object, Gu Chenyi had already picked up two gift packages and started walking toward Class #7.

The appearance of Gu Chenyi caused a little stir in Class #7.

"Oh my gosh, Gu Chenyi?" A girl exclaimed softly when she saw Gu Chenyi walking inside their classroom.

"It is him. Why is he here?"

"Wait, is that Gu Xi behind him?" Someone spotted Gu Xi behind him shortly and was surprised.

"So, Gu Chenyi was... carrying the books for Gu Xi?"

"What is going on?", "Do they know each other?", "Was Gu Chenyi the one who brought all the love bento before?", "What is their relationship with each other?", "Could it be that......", "I don't care what their relationship is, I am envious." ......

Everybody chimed in and the surprised looks remained on everyone even after Gu Chenyi had departed.

Over on the other side, Wang Yankai and the others also looked over full of surprise at Sheng Xiuyan who returned almost at the same time. "What happened, Brother Yan? How is it that you guys went to the teacher's office and Young Master Yi returned with you and......"

And carrying the books for Gu Xi!

Shouldn't that be Brother Yan's job?

"Brother Yan, that wasn't right. If you are not more proactive then Gu......" Before Liu Yangyang could finish with what he was saying, he was stopped by a look from Sheng Xiuyan.

"Whatever." What did that have to do with him.

"Silly." Sheng Xiuyan sneered. Then, looking in the direction that Gu Chenyi had walked away in, an odd look appeared on him.

– Just what was up with that guy now?
