Speaking of, Gu Xi, did your dad attend some important activities today? Hes really dressed up, said Dong Mingming.
Gu Xi, too, had noticed that Gu Shao was dressed more formal than usual.
Daddy Gu is super hot today. Dong Mingmings eyes have stars in them.
I think so too, said Gu Xi with a smile as she agreed with Dong Mingming.
And then, fishing out her own phone stealthily, Gu Xi took a photo of Gu Shao sitting in her spot.
For the keepsake of someone being at the parent-teacher conference for her for the very first time.
Witnessing that, Dong Mingming, too, pulled out her own phone as though she didnt want to be left out and she aimed it in Gu Shaos direction. I will take a photo as well.
Gu Xis lips twitched when she saw the excitement on Dong Mingming. Please take photos of your own dad.
Dong Mingming was taken aback a little when she heard Gu Xis words. Looking over at Daddy Dong sitting next to Gu Shao, she lost interest right away.
What is the point of taking a photo of my dad? said Dong Mingming as she waved her hand. She didnt need to take any of his photos. Her mothers friend's circle was filled with photos of the two of them at the park. She had seen enough of those.
I am taking one of your dad, keke. Then she would be able to brag about it to others going forward: Look, my deskmates father. Handsome, right?
Gu Xi looked back over at the final essay on Gu Xis literature test paper.
It was an essay about affection, reunion, and family. Gu Xi wrote it in an analogy form. There was no mention of actual people or incidents, but her fondness and appreciation of her family members were clearly conveyed in between her words.
That was very different from her essays in the past.
She had written about similar topics in the past and the concepts and writing were equally poetic but there were still subtle differences. What she had described in the past were good, but empty. Now, they were real.
The difference between the lines was very subtle. So subtle that even Gu Xi might not have noticed it herself, but Gu Shao had picked up on it.
***
Gu Shao left with Gu Xi after the parent-teacher conference.
Their plan was to head over to the Gus main residence.
As it turned out, they were halfway there when Xu Fei received a call from a secretary from NTN Technology Center.
Boss, Mr. Qiao had arrived, and he wanted to meet with you, said Xu Fei after he hung up on the phone.
The one that he was referring to as Mr. Qiao was Qiao Luo whom they had worked with in the past when he had acted as their purchasing agent.
This time, however, it wasnt Qiao Luo who reached out to NTN. It was Gu Shao who had reached out to him.
