Fearing a fight between the two, Gu's father put down the documents in his hand and went back to check on Gu Nanxi and Gu Qisi.
When he got home, he saw that Gu Qisi's car had already left, which meant that she had gone home.
However, he seemed to have left in a hurry, probably because he was angry. Gu's father couldn't wait to speculate.
He needed to make sure Gu Nanxi was alright, since Gu Nanxi was the only male heir in the Gu family.
"Hello, is this Xiaoxi? It's Dad. How are you?"
Mr. Gu looked around the living room, but no one was there. He wondered where they had gone, or perhaps they were in their rooms.
However, he noticed a rather familiar piece of clothing, one he had seen before, which seemed to belong to the teacher named Lin Xiao.
Mr. Gu frowned. Why was Teacher Lin only arriving at home now? Didn't he make an appointment with Teacher Lin in advance? It's already evening!
Thinking that he had already taken the first step, she went upstairs to call her son down.
He has neglected his son a bit lately, but that doesn't mean he doesn't want him to be well.
"Is Xiaoxi here? If she doesn't respond, Daddy will come in. Teacher Lin is here too, right?"
Mr. Gu pushed open the door and saw Teacher Lin teaching his son to read. These were lessons that Xiaoxi hadn't heard before, and Teacher Lin looked very serious.
Mr. Gu felt very gratified; no wonder they hadn't heard him calling them earlier.
At this point, Gu Nanxi had already noticed her father's approach, but she simply didn't want to pay him any attention.
He never listened to anything I said before, but now that he's awake, why is he suddenly all lovey-dovey with me again?
Gu Nanxi's gaze towards her father wasn't pleasant, but when she looked back at Lin Xiao, she found it amusing.
"Father, this teacher taught me to say it quite well, I like it."
But as it turned out, Gu's father knew that his son seemed to have changed, but he didn't know exactly how.
However, the warmth seemed to be directed at someone else, not him.
I'm starting to panic. Could it be that my son really hates me? Even though I'm a very wealthy boss, I still hope that my son will take care of me in my old age.
That way, I won't end up alone...
“Son, listen to me. I didn’t mean to. I’ve been too busy lately and have neglected you, so that’s why I hired a tutor for you.”
"Look, you're awake now, why don't you go out for a walk?"
Mr. Gu felt a little guilty; it was indeed a bit bad for such a grown man to be unreasonable.
However, a month is too long. If it can be shortened, we should try our best!
But Gu Nanxi was naturally not happy about it. The first thing he did when he woke up was to take stock of all the good things Lu Caiyu and her daughter had done over the past few years!
The biggest clue is that he's at home; how could he possibly leave?
Gu Nanxi's expression was one of rejection, but it wasn't as cold as before, because Lin Xiao was there and he didn't want him to see him like this.
“Father, didn’t you promise me that I could rest at home for a month? I haven’t even started this month yet.”
He had already experienced his son's stubbornness firsthand, but with Lin Xiao watching over him, there shouldn't be any problems. It's just that Gu Qisi, his daughter, had just arrived.
Mr. Gu asked curiously why Gu Qisi was here. It was because he had arranged for her to stay in an apartment.
A cold glint appeared in Gu Nanxi's deep eyes. "You ask why I came? Of course, it's because my legitimate son has returned, and her status as a pampered young lady is threatened."
Mr. Gu was in a dilemma. He knew that his son and daughter had never been able to get along, but he was at his wit's end and could only helplessly ask Teacher Lin next to him for help.
Lin Xiao had originally thought he could enjoy watching the drama unfold, but after receiving a pleading look from Gu's father, he shook his head helplessly.
"Gu Nanxi, that's all for today's class. Shall we go have dinner first? I'm about to get off work soon."
Hearing Lin Xiao's words that he seemed to be leaving, Gu Nanxi felt a little heartbroken. He didn't know why he felt heartbroken, and he couldn't figure it out. He just felt very frustrated.
He said sullenly, "Teacher, are you leaving? Actually, I have guest rooms here. You can stay if you don't want the hassle..."
Lin Xiao didn't go back because he was tired of the trouble; he was thinking about how to deal with that woman, otherwise you'd be dead!
"Thank you for your kindness, teacher, but I have things to do at home, so I can't stay with Xiaoxi. I'm sure the principal will take good care of you."
Disappointment crept into Gu Nanxi's heart, but he couldn't just leave Lin Xiao behind like that, because he wasn't qualified yet.
"Okay, then please be careful, teacher."
When Lin Xiao got home, he felt a chill run down his spine. Recalling Gu Nanxi's smile, he couldn't help but think how... indescribable it was.
Especially Gu Nanxi's last words, telling him to be careful!
Lin Xiao had just returned home when she received a WeChat message from Gu Qisi, which was about watching a movie that afternoon.
"Teacher, can I post my feelings from today on my WeChat Moments? Don't worry, I won't post anything indiscriminately; I just want to express my feelings in a small way."
Lin Xiao agreed to Gu Qisi's actions because if he didn't, he would have no choice.
It's likely that Gu Qisi will keep bothering him for a while, and then he won't be able to collect any evidence against her.
At this moment, he probably realized it was time for the 009 system to come into play.
"Tongzi, are you there? Call me back when you're free, I'm busy."
[What is it, host? I'm busy right now.]
Lin Xiao: 'You're still busy? You're either flirting with girls or doing other bad things. I know you too well.'
'Alright, let's get down to business. I need to know what Gu Qisi and her group are planning tonight.'
[Host, if you want to know, wouldn't it be better to ask yourself?]
'Shut up! Didn't you say I had a shop system? Hurry up and see what good stuff is in there. Show it to me.'
System 009 thought for a moment and indeed found something useful: [Here, it's this 'headphone.' Wearing it will allow you to hear anything you want to hear!]
Lin Xiao raised an eyebrow. 'That's amazing. Good, you're a true brother.'
After receiving the 'earphone' artifact from the 009 system, he overheard Gu Qisi's conversation with her best friends and understood what was going on.
It turns out that the two of them were going to X Bar today, mainly to try something different.
However, fearing that her father would find out, Gu Qisi chose to play in secret.
Lin Xiao understood and put down the headphones.
Looks like tonight is the time to get evidence against Gu Qisi.
