Chapter 36: Lin Xi’s household register still laid with the Lin family. (1)

After shooing away the three other men, Gu Qinghua brought his cellphone in front of a photo of his late wife.

“Wife, look. Our second boy’s child. She looks just like you when you were young.”

He talked some more in front of his wife’s picture and was very happy with the photo in hand. “Our family has a little princess now.”

The Gu family only had sons for a few generations, never a daughter. His wife was finally pregnant with a daughter once but had lost the baby inadvertently right before delivery. That had become a permanent pain in the old grandpa’s heart.

Sighing, the old grandpa pulled out his cellphone again and looked at the photos. He was unable to his phone down.

After he had clicked out of it, he flipped to an old buddy’s WeChat and recorded a voice message, “So what if your family has a daughter!”

Then he played it back to himself pridefully a couple more times.

Over on the other end, Old Grandpa Shen was speechless when he heard Old Grandpa Gu’s voice message.

“What was wrong with this Gu Qinghua?” He had almost deafened him.

On this end, Lin Xi had yet to find out that she had been “betrayed” by Aunty Mei.

After dinner, Lin Xi returned to her own room, pulled out her old text books and reviewed the chapters that she was behind on.

Then she pulled out her cellphone.

On her phone, the request that she had sent to join the group that she had long forgotten had been approved.

The corners of Lin Xi’s lips twitched when she saw the goofy group name Battle at the Summit of Tianchuang.

She clicked into the group and did not see the crazy discussion that she had anticipated. There were all three people in the group, including her – AAA was the owner of the group, herself, and someone with the alias Lin. His profile was grayed out, obviously offline.

There were also just a few lines in the group, all of them from the owner of the group.

[AAA]: The victory of this competition belongs to me!

[AAA]: We can do this together. The strong must join forces.

[AAA]: Somebody. Talk.

Suddenly, a new message popped out, still from the owner of the group.

[AAA]: @X, welcome, our new member!

Lin Xi, who was just about to click out of it, her hand stopped in midair.

[X]: Apologies, Group Master, I was just here to chat.

She wasn’t good enough for a competition of this caliber.

[AAA]: Oh, that’s fine too. You just got here. Stay for a little while.

[AAA]: I have done a lot of research on this competition. We can always exchange our thoughts on it.

[X]: How come I am not seeing a lot of others around?

She recalled that the discussion was quite lively in the forum earlier. Did this seemingly goofy owner of the group scare the others away?

The owner of the group explained.

[AAA]: They were mostly just talk, or that they had already formed their own team and were just there to see if they could gleam some information. They wouldn’t really join the group chat.

Was that so?

Lin Xi was taken aback a little. Why did she feel that she was the only one that was fooled?

Then there was another brother who was offline.

[AAA]: Are you solo or have you already joined a team?

[X]: Just me.

[AAA]: Well, that’s great. Why don’t you join us then?

That was kind of sloppy, no?

Lin Xi couldn't help but thought.

She had no idea how to tell him that she hadn’t planned on joining a competition of this caliber, so she made up something on the fly: Let me think about it.

[AAA]: That’s fine. Take your time. You are in our group chat already. We will save a spot for you on our team.

[X]: Thank you.

Lin Xi clicked out of the chat and, hesitated for a little, felt that the owner of the group was quite pitiful and stayed in the group.

With whatever few members in the group, it’d go away on its own anyway.
