I Have Decided to Go Look for My Father

Chapter 57: "You look so cool earlier, Dad!" (1)



Lin Xi was right. Gu Shao did go look for Zhang Qiang.

At this moment, the door to Zhang Qiang’s place was shut tight. It looked just like usual from the outside when, in reality, 6 – 7 well-trained bodyguards were inside of Zhang Qiang’s yard, keeping Zhang Qiang inside.

The head of them opened up the door for Gu Shao when he arrived.

The name of this man is Wang Lu.

Much like Wang Wu, he, too, was an employee of the Gu family. The difference was that Wang Wu helped take care of the open businesses; whereas, Wang Lu, take care of the most subtle ones.

Under normal situation, Wang Lu’s service would not be required unless it was something very important or special.

“Sir,” said Wang Lu to Gu Shao wish his head lowered.

“Where is he?” asked Gu Shao. His voice cold.

“He’s inside, Sir,” said Wang Lu as he pointed in the direction of the main house.

Gu Shao nodded and walked inside.

***

There were two bodyguards inside the main house and Zhang Qiang was cowering in a corner, looking fearful. One could tell from the panic on his face that he had no idea what he had done or whom he had offended.

See Gu Shao, Zhang Qiang trembled even more violently –– He didn’t know who Gu Shao was but, judging from Gu Shao’s aura and the attitude of the others toward him, he figured he was the boss.

Zhang Qiang gulped.

“Ugh. Who, who are you?

“I don’t know you.”

Zhang Qiang might be uneducated and not very worldly but he could still tell that the group of people, especially the one standing in front of him right now, was bad news.

Looking back over at Gu Shao, Zhang Qiang dared not meet his eyes. He stuttered, “Bo, Boss. I am just a man in a village and had never committee any crimes. I am sure there has been some sort of a mistake. You… …”

Gu Shao interrupted Zhang Qiang and said calmly to him, “I am the father of Lin Xi.”

Lin Xi?

Zhang Qiang was taken aback a little. “You are referring to the girl that Zhang Cui had dropped off a while back?”

The girl who had frightened him so much that he dared not even mention her name left a lasting impression with Zhang Qiang.

When Gu Shao did not deny it, Zhang Qiang knew that he was right and also why he was here. He panicked.

“Oh, so you are the father of that girl.” Shivering, Zhang Qiang still tried to put on an innocent look. “She only stopped by with Zhang Cui that one day and took off the same day.”

Except that she didn’t just leave, she escaped.

“If you are looking for her, Boss. You really are at the wrong place. Lin Xi is not here. Perhaps you can go talk to Zhang Cui?”

Having said that, he noticed the cold look on Gu Shao and his lack of intention of letting him go. Zhang panicked even more. He quickly added, “Really. Don’t listen to the rumors in town. I didn’t have to locked up. You can look. Please, feel free to look around.”

Gu Shao looked over at Zhang Qiang and said coldly, “Do you really think you will be talking to me like this if you still have my daughter locked up?”

Zhang Qiang processed that a little and figured out the meaning of Gu Shao’s words: So he knew that Lin Xi was not here at his place. He wasn’t here to look for the girl.

“Then what is it that you want?” asked Zhang Qiang, still trying to play dumb.

He heard Gu Shao saying to him in a very severe tone, “To settle our scores, over the harm that you had caused my daughter.”

Perhaps Gu Shao’s attitude right now was too overly intimidating, Zhang Qiang started to tremble immediately. He thought to himself: This was Lin Xi’s father. Did Lin Xi run to her father after she ran off and told him about what had happened here and now he was here to settle the scores?
