I Have Decided to Go Look for My Father

Chapter 194: Who am I? Where am I? (1)

Gu Shao brought Gu Xi with him to AU over the weekend.

Gu Xi was very excited the entire way there and had a happy look on her the entire time.

Looking at Gu Xi, Gu Shao raised his brows and asked, Happy?

Of course. Gu Xi nodded, then looked up at Gu Shao and broke into a smile. She explained excitedly, AU has always been my dream school.

Number Gu Xi brought up one first, then added another one, My second choice.

Hearing that AU was only her second choice, Gu Shao felt a hint of disgruntlement.

Without letting that show, he asked again, Which one is the first?

BU, said Gu Xi without missing a beat.

The scum school across the street from them.

Gu Shao, He suddenly felt even more disgruntled.

AU is better than BU and better for you, said Gu Shao definitively.

What he said was true. AU was better for Gu Xi than BU. If Gu Xis interest was still in electronic technology by the time that Gu Xi was attending college, then AU offers a stronger program than BU.

There was an even more important reason: AU was closer to home than BU.

By whopping half of a block.

Gu Shao starting to plan in his head how to swap the order between AU and BU in the girls head.

Then again, that seemed to be a little too premature for that.

Meanwhile, a voice from not too far away interrupted Gu Shaos thoughts.

Professor Gu, it is you!

I thought I saw you from over there and almost thought I was mistaken.

Two teachers walked over to Gu Shao from not too far away and said to him with a smile on them.

After all, Professor Gu was a busy body who rarely came to the university, let alone on the weekends. It was surprising to see him at this time.

Gu Shao, too, nodded at the two of them. Im heading to the laboratory.

Gu Xi, standing a little behind Gu Shao, glanced over at the two teachers.

Gu Xi had been walking next to Gu Shao. However, when she saw others walking toward Gu Shao, she had reflexively gone to hide behind Gu Shao.

Not because she was shy or anything.

But, at that very moment in time, she suddenly worried whether her being there would negatively impact Gu Shao or made him feel awkward in front of the others. As such, she hid reflexively.

Came to think about it, Gu Xi realized that what she had done was very silly. It wasnt like they could see a person her size.

The two teachers had, indeed, noticed Gu Xi. The looked curiously at Gu Xi, then back to Gu Shao, and couldn't help but asked, You brought a little friend with you, Professor Gu. This one is...?

Gu Xi obviously looked too young to be a university student. Nor had them ever seen Professor Gu bringing kids of friends and families to the campus before.

Gu Shao turned and looked at Gu Xi, who was shuffling out from behind him. A dimness crossed his eyes. The difference in Gu Xis behavior between today and when he visited HASU did not go unnoticed.

He lifted his hand and rubbed Gu Xi on her head. Looking away from Gu Xi, he said to the two teachers, This is my daughter.

If one was to listen carefully, one would be able to tell that not only was there no discomfort or resentment in his voice; there was, instead, a sense of pride.

Upon hearing that, both teachers looked surprised, Your daughter?!

The two looked back and forth between Gu Shao and Gu Xi they had never heard that Professor Gu had a daughter!

In fact, they never even heard that he was married. How did he have a child her age?

Regardless, judging from their looks, they were certainly father and daughter.

Ah, weve missed your wedding banquet. We didnt know that your daughter is this big already, said the two teachers while hiding their surprised look.

As these two teachers were only acquaintances at school and not someone close, Gu Shao did not bother to elaborate.

Noticing that Gu Xi had her head lowered, he didnt make her greet them either.
