"What?" Ye Qing had already gotten out of the car and was carrying the two children out of the car when she heard Xi Quan's instinctive question.
Xi Quan didn't say anything more. After parking the car, he helped Ye Qing carry the child out of the car.
Because they had just finished dinner when they picked up the two children from their grandparents' house, the two children were sleepy by then. Although Ye Qing didn't quite hear what Xi Quan said before getting out of the car, she didn't ask and instead put the two children to sleep first.
After the child fell asleep, Ye Qing finished tidying up herself. She asked Xi Quan, who was leaning against the bed, "What did you say when you got out of the car?"
Xi Quan paused slightly in his hand holding the book, then looked up at Ye Qing: "It's nothing, I just wanted to tell you that the name you gave your child is what it is, and it won't be changed! The surname doesn't need to be changed either."
Although Ye Qing politely refused Xi Quan's grandmother when they were at Xi Quan's grandfather's house, she wasn't really clear about Xi Quan's attitude towards her.
Hearing Xi Quan's clear answer, Ye Qing wasn't surprised. After all, the person she liked wouldn't be so superficial.
It would have been fine if this topic hadn't been brought up, but since it had, Ye Qing felt it was better to ask clearly to avoid getting angry or arguing over such trivial matters in the future.
Ye Qing was silent for a while before saying, "To be honest, I don't think it's necessary to change the child's surname, but is what you mean by not changing it your true feelings?"
"Of course it's the truth." Xi Quan didn't understand why Ye Qing asked this. Did she still not believe him?
“You weren’t there for me when I was pregnant and gave birth. You said you wouldn’t change the child’s name because you felt sorry for me, or did you really think a name is just a label and doesn’t matter?” Ye Qing told Xi Quan what was on her mind.
Seeing that Xi Quan seemed to be deep in thought, Ye Qing said, "If you want to change it, although I think your idea is too old-fashioned, well, surnames seem to be something that everyone agrees on. I can understand that you want to change it. Just tell me your true thoughts, and even if we have differences, we can communicate well. But please don't give in to my ideas just because you think I'm working hard. I will be unhappy if you don't give in to me on some small things. Changing a name is not a big deal, but it is not a small deal either."
Ye Qing wasn't the kind of person who was unreasonable. If things were discussed and communicated properly, there wouldn't be any problems at all. Ye Qing's attitude when she was at Xi Quan's grandparents' house was mainly because she couldn't agree with Xi Quan's grandmother's attitude of taking things for granted and leaving no room for discussion. That's why she refused Xi Quan's grandmother.
But Xi Quan is different, because she and Xi Quan are husband and wife and will live together for the rest of their lives.
When the word "a lifetime" suddenly popped into his mind, Ye Qing was stunned for a moment, surprised by the thought in his subconscious.
Xi Quan didn't expect that his statement would make Ye Qing think so much, but he also agreed with Ye Qing's point of view. Problems can be solved by communication. He said, "I am sincere. I just think that a name is just a symbol. It doesn't matter whether the surname is yours or mine, because I love you as a person, and I love the child because the child is yours!"
A perfect answer.
Ye Qing was a little embarrassed. "Alright, since you put it that way, if your grandma brings up this topic again, then I will definitely stand up for my opinion."
Xi Quan put down his words, turned around and hugged Ye Qing: "Don't worry, but I will talk to my grandma. Don't worry. Since we've come to this issue, does the child's household registration really need to be re-registered?"
Ye Qing had no objection to this. She said, "I'll give you their documents tomorrow, and you can go and get them done."
Since they were talking about children, after finishing discussing household registration, Ye Qing remembered Xi Quan's reaction when he heard a little boy kiss Ye Yixin at Xi Quan's grandmother's house. Ye Qing couldn't help but laugh.
Looking down at his wife in his arms, Xi Quan asked, "What are you laughing at?"
"I'm laughing at you! I'm laughing at how nervous you are about Ye Yixin. Does Liang Yan look any older than Ye Yixin? He's still just a kid who doesn't know anything. Your reaction is a bit too exaggerated!" Ye Qing couldn't help but laugh again after saying that.
However, Xi Quan was particularly dissatisfied with Ye Qing's dismissive attitude. He suddenly sat up and looked at Ye Qing incredulously: "You can't think like that. No matter how young Liang Yan is, he's still a boy."
That's true, but Ye Qing was exaggerating a bit. She was both amused and exasperated by Xi Quan's attitude and still wanted to share her opinion. After all, Ye Yixin would be going to school in the future, and there would be both boys and girls in the school. It was impossible for her to only play with girls and ignore the boys.
Before Ye Qing could even speak, Xi Quan seemed to have suddenly remembered something and asked Ye Qing, "What did Liang Lu say to you? He's just a playboy; you should only listen to what he says."
When asked by Xi Quan, Ye Qing remembered what Liang Lu had said. Ye Qing said, "It's nothing. We just talked about Ye Shuang. After all, he dated Ye Shuang before. Otherwise, what do you think we were going to talk about?"
"Ye Shuang?" Xi Quan frowned. "What happened to her?"
"I don't know, we just chatted for a bit. But given the history between Ye Shuang and me, I wouldn't be surprised if she did something." Ye Qing couldn't help but sigh, "Although I've never provoked her, and it's always been a passive retaliation, she still sees me as a thorn in her side."
Xi Quan put his arm around Ye Qing's shoulder and lay down again: "Don't worry, she won't cause any big trouble."
Although she knew Xi Quan was trying to put her mind at ease, Ye Qing felt particularly reassured when she heard him say that.
While Xi Quan's words reassured Ye Qing, now that she knew some things, Ye Qing felt it was better to prepare in advance, so she took some time the next day to visit someone.
Before Ye Qing left, he sent Ye Shuwei's biological father, who was also Ye Qing's own grandfather, to the hospital so that he could recuperate in peace. Ye Qing did not abandon him afterward.
Because by then she had already inherited Ye Shuwei's property, whether passively or actively, she had gotten the money. And although Ye Qing was ruthless, she knew what to do.
So even though she went abroad, she still made sure that the lawyer who was in charge of Ye Shuwei's estate properly arranged things for the old man's later life.
Mr. Ye was admitted to the hospital because of a stroke. Because he was admitted late, although his condition improved after treatment, he was unable to walk. Later, with the help of a lawyer, he was sent to a nursing home.
At that time, the quality of sanatoriums in Nancheng varied, but there were some good ones. Anyway, Ye Shuwei had earned a lot of money and could afford the old man's expenses, so Ye Qing asked the lawyer to contact a high-end sanatorium with a pretty good environment and other conditions.
Following the address he had obtained from the lawyer, Ye Qing searched for a while before finally finding the old man's room in the picturesque sanatorium.
Unexpectedly, besides the old man, there was another person in the room who was both unexpected and expected.
