We have the character, but we still need a given name.
There was also a big drama surrounding the baby's name.
Or, in fact, it would be more accurate to describe it as an epic icebreaking event.
Chen Rou didn't ask Chen Ke, so she had to call Master Dong, because she knew him best. Master Dong was cultured, had many Taoist masters he associated with, knew how to do things, and would find someone to verify the names. It would be easy for him to come up with ten names.
But Master Dong is different. Chen Ke is at least shrewd despite his rough exterior, but he's a complete brute and doesn't know how to name people.
But he has a stubborn and competitive personality, so has he been racking his brains lately?
But when she made the call, Mr. Dong seemed to know what she was thinking and said directly, "Arou, don't you trust me either? Do you think I can't pick a good name?"
Chen Rou meant that it was unnecessary; if all else failed, she could just call him Nie Dangdang, which was both cute and pleasant to hear.
But then Master Dong added, "Don't worry, I won't cause trouble. I'm at Zhongyi Hall, working on a name."
Then he hung up the phone.
But Chen Rou almost burst out laughing on the spot, because Zhongyi Hall was Er Ye's territory, and it was also the place that Dong Ye had only set foot in once in his life. However, he actually went to Zhongyi Hall, a place where people were killed, and even studied with Er Ye.
Just then, the little one woke up from his nap and was wheeled in by the nanny.
He was eating his little hands, but after a while he probably felt it wasn't enough, so he grabbed his toes and started eating them too.
However, as soon as Chen Rou reached out, he immediately and accurately grabbed her hand, exclaiming, "Oh~oh Oh~"
Chen Rou raised her hand, and the baby's grasping ability was very strong; she lifted the little guy up.
Even for a woman as strong as an eagle, who had seen the world, she found it unbelievable.
Actually, the little one is just a bit fair-skinned and pretty, with a high nose, big eyes, and rosy little lips.
But where did he get the magic to make Master Dong go to his enemy's territory and calmly discuss names?
Moreover, Master Dong is far too magnanimous; he actually took the initiative to bow down to Master Er?
But she misunderstood, because in fact, the one who was most willing to bow his head was still Master Er, and that was also because of his wisdom.
Let's start with Master Dong. When he received the task, he discovered that he might be able to surpass Nie Rong, the old-time richest man, and become the namer of the richest man's young heir. At that time, he put all his effort into coming up with a great name.
Of course, his plan was to find the best Taoist master in Hong Kong to discuss the birth chart and choose a good name.
But just as he was about to make the call, Weng Hua rushed in and said, "Father, that guy is looking for you."
Mr. Dong then asked, "Which old geezer is tired of living?"
Even though Weng Huaren was stammering, the one-eyed man still rushed in and said, "Your, your grandfather, is right outside the door!"
Master Dong couldn't believe his eyes, but Master Er, alone, leaning on his cane, wearing his usual cotton and linen overcoat and a black top hat, saw Master Dong leave and even took off his top hat before extending his hand first.
Master Dong was stunned, and even had a very bad feeling at the time: that Chen Rou had revealed her trump card, and that his guess was wrong. She was a child of the Er family, and Master Er had come to announce this news and send him to his death.
But when Master Er said that, Master Dong burst into tears.
Because he said, "Wealth doesn't last three generations, kindness doesn't last three generations, and resentment doesn't last three generations either. No matter whose child he is, I will raise the white flag and never hurt or harm him. But you should do the same; you cannot hurt or harm him."
Master Dong actually thought the same thing, but Master Er said it first.
At that time, he still thought the two were on the same level, but then Master Er said something that made Master Dong feel ashamed of himself.
He said, "People are very simple when they are young, but they become more ruthless and cunning as they get older. So in Hong Kong and Macau, not only do people practice witchcraft, but some wealthy people even plant 'living tombs' to borrow lifespan from their descendants. As for casting spells, sticking pins in voodoo dolls, and casting curses, they are countless. A child's birth date and time are extremely important!"
Mr. Dong was so frightened that a cold sweat broke out all over his body, with white hairs sprouting from his forehead.
Although Nie Zhao only gave an approximate time of birth, not the exact minute, it was still a rough estimate of the richest man's son's birth chart. If the person they found was untrustworthy and the kind of villain who liked to use underhanded methods to frame people, as long as they weren't afraid of trouble and were patient, they could eventually cast a curse. Wouldn't that harm his own bloodline?
Grandpa Dong belatedly realized what was going on, but he immediately lowered his head and said, "Tell me, what should we name the child?"
Then I asked, "Why don't you come inside, sir, so we can analyze your birth charts and discuss it in detail?"
He only got closer to Master Dong in order to stop Master Dong from committing the same mistake, but Master Dong killed his wife and children, leaving him with a life of resentment. How could he possibly enter the Righteous and Brave Hall? So he said, "If you have time, come and talk to me."
At this crucial juncture, Master Dong naturally didn't hesitate and said, "Take your time lining up and choosing. When you feel it's about right, call me, and I'll... go to the Hall of Loyalty and Righteousness."
To prevent his men from mutinying or causing trouble, Mr. Dong arrived today in simple attire.
Of course, Master Er also sent most of his men away, and opened the back door to let Master Dong in. At this moment, the two of them were in the study, looking at the meanings of a large number of names with appropriate birth dates, and slowly choosing one based on the elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.
Each person gets three. Master Er is quite modest, letting Master Dong choose first before he makes his own.
After selecting the item, put it in an envelope, seal it with wax, and then make a phone call. Song Yuanchao will come to pick it up in person.
Leaving that aside, Chen Rou wouldn't know about the name Chen Keqi had chosen until the next morning.
