I Have Decided to Go Look for My Father Chapter 271: That turned into an inexplicable incident at HS

If only Dong Mingming would find out that one of her two male gods could grumble about sothing from before dinner all the way to after dinner and the other one could single-handedly built a 99-story high rise (TL: # of comnts in a discussion chain); one of them bizarrely fixated on pink color for girls and the other one deeply intrigued by emoji well-loved by elderlies, Gu Xi wondered if Dong Mingming would have a change of heart then.

Gu Xi patted Dong Mingming on her shoulder and gave her a sympathetic look.

Whats the matter? asked Dong Mingming, baffled.

Gu Xi shook her head, Nothing.. Gu Xi decided against telling Dong Mingming the truth when she saw the excitent and happiness on Dong Mingmings face.

Sheng Xiuyan, who was sleeping on his desk on the other side of the classroom, however, felt an inexplicable chill down his spine.

Whats the matter, Brother Yan?

He saw Sheng Xiuyan said calmly and expressionlessly, So cold that I had woken up.

Over on this side, Gu Xi, sitting in her own spot, picked up her phone and combed through all of the available competitions over the holidays and written down the ones that she could join. She then marked the ones with high cash prizes.

Dong Mingming looked at her with a quizzical look.

Classmate Gu Xi, I have a serious question to ask.

What is it? Gu Xi turned and looked at Dong Mingming.

Are competitions addicting? asked Dong Mingming. The number of competitions in Gu Xis little notebook could almost rival the workdays of a star.

Gu Xi paused and stopped what she was doing when she heard that. I dont think so?

Then why is it that you are so fixated on these competitions? mumbled Dong Mingming.

And, she wasnt sure if she was just imagining it, she felt that Gu Xi wanted to get rich from these competitions?

Especially when Gu Xi made a point of marking down the cash prize after each of them.

As she was contemplating how to answer Dong Mingmings question, their conversation was disrupted by a disturbance in the classroom.

What happened? Gu Xi looked in the direction of where the noise originated from and asked quizzically.

The Art Committee mber from in front of them turned around and clued the two in, They are talking about matters regarding the Quality Developnt Outing.

Quality Developnt Outing? Dong Mingmings eyes lit up when she heard that. Have they set a date for it yet?

Thats what they are saying. The Art Committee mber blinked and said, Wang Luyan saw the program in the teachers lounge. Its Friday after next to Saturday.

Thats aweso! Dong Mingming swung Gu Xis hand excitedly.

Gu Xi had an idea why the others were so excited after listening to their conversation.

Gu Xi knew about the Quality Developnt Outing. It wasnt an activity exclusive to HSAU. Truth was, many high schools in City B had held Quality Developnt Outing traditionally. Most of the ti it would land toward the end of the sester for freshn and sophomores and usually all the schools had them around the sa ti.

Many of the schools would request the parents to join as well.

As for the actual program sothing similar to a fall trip, perhaps?

Gu Xi wasnt too sure.

Gu Xi, lets form a team together then! said Dong Mingming as she held Gu Xis hand.

Sure Gu Xi nodded vaguely then couldn't help but asked, What are so of the activities?

She could think about what she needed to prepare.

The program? Well, its like Half way through her talking, Dong Mingming stopped all of a sudden and looked at Gu Xi quizzically. You dont know what you do during Quality Developnt Outing?

Didnt your old school have it? That doesnt make sense. I recall that Liming does have Quality Developnt Outing.

With the exception of a few high schools in City B that emphasized primarily on the academic and would do nothing other than lessons in classrooms, all of the other ones more or less have Quality Developnt Outing programs. There were a few who didnt care much about it and would only have a makeshift one on campus for half a day.

Liming was not one of them.

Dong Mingming seed to recall that Liming and HSAU were together at the sa location the year prior.
