Chapter 232: The difference in the words was very minor but Gu Shao picked it up anyway. (1)

Gu Shao took off because he noticed Gu Xi not far away from them. Gu Xi was standing on a path not too far away from the entrance of the school staring eagerly at the entrance.

Gu Shao walked over to behind Gu Xi and his look mellowed out obviously.

Are you waiting for me? asked Gu Shao.

Gu Xi was taken aback a little when she heard Gu Shaos voice. That was when she realized that he had already arrived.

Gu Xi turned and called out, Dad. Smiling shyly, she said, I thought

That I wont be coming?

No. Gu Xi shook her head and tried to come up with a reason. She said, I worry that you might need help finding my classroom.

Lets go, Dad. The parent-teacher conference is about to start. Having said that, Gu Xi dragged Gu Shao with her and headed in the direction of Class #7.

As much as she tried to appear calm and normal, the look on her and her pace betrayed her excitement.

Gu Xi dragged Gu Shao toward her classroom.

The moment that they arrived at the entrance of the classroom and before they could walk inside, the class teacher had already come out to welcome Gu Shao enthusiastically.

The Shen family had four children. After the oldest two had died in a war, the only ones left were the Shens only daughter, Shen Yi,* mother of Sheng Xiuyan, and Shen Ye, the youngest of the four and the son that Old Mr. Shen got late in life.

After losing two children painfully, Old Mr. Shen was not going to let the remaining children repeat the same mistakes. As such, Shen Yi became a doctor and Shen Yi started his own business.

Lo and behold, Old Mr. Shen would never had thought that her daughter ended up marrying a military man and Shen Ye became a miliary doctor.

You have time off? asked Gu Shao as he raised his brows. The unit that Sheng Yi was at was no ordinary unit. It was not easy for him to take time off.

Sheng Yi nodded upon hearing that. Yeah, I hadnt taken any time off in years. Its rare that I have time off.

He was forced to take leave this time by a few comrades in arms when they tossed him and his suitcase out.

Pausing a little, Sheng Yi went on to say, I have some free time at home, so I thought I will see how the brat is doing at school.

Truth was, he heard his brother-in-law mentioned that Sheng Xiuyan might be in a romantic relationship in his young age. That was the real reason that he was here.

Translators rambling:

Yes, this is NOT an error on my part. Sheng Xiuyans mothers name is Shen Yi and his father is Sheng Yi Blame the author (or the Chinese language), not the translator. ?
