I Have Decided to Go Look for My Father

Chapter 151: “What kind of name is Battle at the Summit of Tianchuang?” (2)

Thats not something that you need to worry about. Gu Shao interrupted Gu Xi and looked solemn.

If one was to looked carefully, one would see that hint of helplessness in Gu Shaos eyes.

Even though what Gu Xi said wasnt wrong and her worries were true but Gu Shao still didnt want her to worry about such things at her early age.

Its true. I had a dream one day and dreamed that someone is after our family, said Gu Xi. Then, as though worried that Gu Shao would not believe her, added, My dream is very real!

Although, that was technically the story arc of a novel and not a dream.

Okay, I get it, said Gu Shao.

But what you need to focus on right now is your school work or how to make yourself happy. You leave these up to the adults.

Oh. Gu Xi nodded when she saw that Gu Shao didnt think too much about what she had told him.

But you must remain alerted.

Go to bed.

Mmm Meeting Gu Shaos stern eyes, Gu Xi shrank her head back a little.

I am only going to say one last thing. Just one thing. Gu Xi gestured a number 1 with her finger and, before Gu Shao could consent to it, added quickly, I feel that Gu Yaobai, I am talking about Third Uncle, is not a good person.

Saying that out loud to Gu Shao was not easy for Gu Xi.

Nevertheless, if she didnt say that out loud, she worried that the Gu family would not keep their guards up around Gu Yaobai and gave him the opportunity to set them up.

Okay. I am going to bed now. Gu Xi was intimidated under Gu Shaos look and was about to go to bed like a good child.

Then again, she had just taken two steps when she stopped again. She turned around and looked at Gu Shao with a guilty conscience.

Gu Xi, Really. This really is the last thing!

Gu Shao, Speak.

Gu Xi, Can I get pocket money?

For the very first time, Boss Gu felt that he was able to follow the thoughts or how they skip around of a child nowadays.

Seeing that Gu Shao did not respond to her, Gu Xi was a little nervous. Biting down on her lips, she said, I dont need that much. Just 1,000, em, 2,000. 2,000 yuan will be enough.

Gu Xi had thought about it before she came to talk to Gu Shao. She had reminded Gu Shao to watch out for Gu Yaobai and that person that was behind him, but she still needed to have a plan B.

She needed to carry on with her original treasury plan.

She would save up every dime that Gu Shao gave to her and, combine that with the prize money that she would be making from competitions, by the time the Gu family went offline, which was around the time she became of age, she should have a sizeable amount.

Even if the Gu family was to go belly up inevitably, as long as her money was not counted as part of Gu Shao or the Gu familys wealth, they would not be taken away and that would be sufficient to support them.

So, she should just consider this Gu Shaos pension, no, risk-resisting fund.

***

Gu Shao had no idea what was going through Gu Xis mind but, as much as he was surprised that Gu Xi was asking him for pocket money but, if he really thought about it, it was only right for the parents to provide pocket money for their children.

Except that

As though something had occurred to him, he frowned a little.

Ill give it to you tomorrow. Having said that, Gu Shao added, Now, to bed.

Now that Gu Shao had given her his words, Gu Xi had no more questions and left the study docilely. She even said happily to Gu Shao on her way out, Goodnight.

Returning to her own bedroom, Gu Xi did not go to bed but pulled out er phone and logged into [Battle at the Summit of Tiancheong] group chat.

It had only been a few hours and Brother [AAA] had, once again, build a 99-story department store all by himself.
