I Have Decided to Go Look for My Father

Chapter 60: And Gu Shao confiscated all of them. (1)



“Are you still trying to look?” Gu Shao’s face dropped when he noticed that Lin Xi was still trying to turn her head and take a look.

“Mmm, no…” Lin Xi looked away and explained softly, “I just want to see if he is still alive.”

It’d be quite troublesome if he had died.

Lin Xi was a little worried.

“Don’t worry,” said Gu Shao. He found the nervousness on Lin Xi amusing.

“Back to the car,” said Gu Shao with a long face.

“Oh.”

After they had gotten back into the car, the car drove away slowly from Zhang Qiang’s place.

Lin Xi looked away from it and look over at Gu Shao, who was sitting next to her with a solemn look. Recalling the scene that she had witnessed earlier, she still felt incredulous.

“Dad, did you really beat up that Zhang Qiang before I got there?” Lin Xi couldn't help but asked.

Gu Shao did not deny it but said, “Violence is not a solution to things so I do not advocate using violence as solutions.”

Upon hearing that, the corner of Lin Xi’s lips twitched. She couldn't help but thought to herself: Is this what they called double standards?

“Then what you did earlier was not violence?” Lin Xi grumbled softly.

Gu Shao heard her but did not deny it. “I did a wrongful demonstration.”

After a slight pause, Gu Shao went on to say, “Combating violence with violence was not advocated because it wasn’t worth it. When violence was being exercised, you will bring about even worse influence and consequences to yourself and end up with problems that was worse that what it was before.”

He looked back over at Lin Xi and said seriously, “As such, no matter what you run into in the future, the first and foremost to keep in mind is to remain calm and make the best decision basing on the situation. If you run into problems that you can’t solve, don’t rush to handle it yourself. Come and tell me, I will take care of it for you as your parent.”

Gu Shao was very solemn when he said that but Lin Xi could feel a hint of concern coming from him.

“Do you understand?” asked Gu Shao.

“Yes!” replied Lin Xi with a nod. Smiling at Gu Shao, she said, “I will let Dad knows right away when I run into problems in the future.”

Looking at the silly smile on Lin Xi, Gu Shao raised his brows and asked, “What is it?”

“Oh, nothing.” Lin Xi shook her head but finally couldn't help but praised, “You looked so cool earlier when you beat up the guy, Dad!”

Gu Shao was taken aback a little when he heard that. A flash of helplessness flashed past his eyes. His intention was to teach Lin Xi a lesson but isn’t her takeaway a bit off?”

***

The car arrived at the front of the village shortly, where they stopped earlier.

Both Gu Shao and Lin Xi got out of the car and was about to get back inside the one that they came in.

At this time, someone walking in their direction caught Lin Xi’s attention.

After getting a clearer look at the old man who was hunched over with a limp, Lin Xi was surprised. Isn’t that Song Shishan?

Song Shishan was Zhang Cui’s ex-husband who was also Song Kexin’s birth father.

In the novel, Song Shishan was a gambling addict who was in a lot of debt. Even Song Kexin, in City B, was went after for his debts.

Initially, Chen Kexin accepted Lin Yize’s proposition as his replacement lover for the sake of repaying her father’s debts.

She had it figured out later on and stopped paying for his debts. Instead, she encouraged Zhang Cui to divorce him.

After Song Kexin and Lin Yize had gotten married, she leveraged Lin Yize’s power to force Song Shishan into divorcing Zhang Cui.

Zhang Cui had stayed in City B since and Song Shishan continued to hide out in his hometown.

***

In the past, when Lin Xi was still staying at the Lin’s, she had seen Song Shishan a few times when he went asking for money from Song Kexin. As such, she remembered what he looked like.

Village Zhang was immediately next to Village Song along with a few other villages. It looked like Song Shishan was just returning from some banquet.
