Chapter 82 Changing Names
Wang Qiuni has a secret: she doesn't like her own name.
She didn't like either the former Wang Qiudi or the name she changed to Wang Qiuni after welcoming her younger brother.
She liked hearing her grandmother call her Yaoyao, liked her grandmother using her slightly rough hands to pick up a wet towel to wipe her hands, and liked everything about her grandmother.
It wasn't that her parents were working away from home, that they had no other choice. Her younger brother was still young and too mischievous for her grandmother to take care of him. But she hadn't seen her parents since she was five. The couple's only hope for her was Qiudi—a brother.
How pious he was, calling her name every day and asking her to bring a boy.
Like all scripts, Wang Qiuni's parents left the village with their son, leaving behind their elderly grandmother and five-year-old daughter, and never returned.
Until grandma's deathbed, the happy family of three still did not show up.
When she called her parents, she was met with words like "bad luck" and "unlucky." Wang Qiuni lived with her parents for three years. If she hadn't been admitted to a key high school, bringing honor to the couple, she might not have been able to attend high school.
Unfortunately, before the college entrance examination, the so-called younger brother found a so-called gang leader outside. The gang leader was probably mentally ill. After meeting Wang Qiuni once, he couldn't forget her and always wanted to get her.
In order to save face in front of his elder brother, the younger brother took Wang Qiuni home when she was alone.
So Wang Qiuni exploded, raised a kitchen knife and slashed the man's lower abdomen, slashed her brother's face and hands, picked up his ID card, and left without looking back.
Qin Qinsen's words gave Wang Qiuni hope. This man was a master who could exorcise evil spirits and catch ghosts, and he must be able to read fortunes.
If it wasn't a consolation, what he meant was that she could change, could live a different life. She wouldn't have to worry about the police knocking on her door every day, or about that couple coming to her house to demand an explanation, or even worry about whether that big brother was dead or alive.
"Is it okay?" Wang Qiuni's desire was real, and all three of them saw it.
"I want to change my name, go back to school, and go to university. I have good grades and always rank first in my hometown. I used to go to Haishi No. 1 High School..."
"No. 1 High School!?" Fang Nanxing's exaggerated tone attracted attention, and he explained with excitement, "That's No. 1 High School. You have to get a perfect score on the high school entrance exam to get into No. 1 High School!"
"You've already been admitted to Shanghai No. 1 High School, why don't you continue studying?" Fang Nanxing couldn't hide his curiosity.
Haishi's education level isn't particularly impressive within the province, but Haishi No. 1 High School is undeniably the best. Sending countless outstanding students to top universities each year, it's a dream school for parents in surrounding cities.
In addition to the city's high school entrance exam, Haishi No. 1 High School offers a self-recruitment exam, open to all applicants, which is incredibly difficult. However, if you can get into the experimental class through self-recruitment, it's practically like having one foot in the door of a prestigious school, with the other foot just waiting for the college entrance exam or a recommendation.
Wang Qiuni's accent was obviously not that of a local, which meant that she could only go the self-recruitment route.
Fang Nanxing never expected that the girl who was forced to apologize by Li Yong by holding her head that day had such good academic performance.
Interrupting Fang Nanxing's inquiring behavior, Qin Qinsen bluntly said, "The prerequisite is that you must change your name and surname and break away from the past. In other words, the past is all gone, and all cause and effect ends today."
"As long as you agree, we can help you change your name. As for your student status..."
Receiving Qin Qinsen's gaze, Teng Su nodded, "I have a way."
There is such a good thing! ?
Wang Qiuni's eyes lit up and she nodded repeatedly, fearing they would change their minds. She quickly took out her ID and said, "I only have my ID card. Will it be difficult to change my name? I already have a name. My name is Yun Yao."
Yun is grandma's surname, and Yao is the nickname grandma gave her.
"Okay." Qin Qinsen took the ID card and handed it to Teng Su. "I'll give it to you, Mr. Teng."
There was a hint of subtle flattery in his smile, and Teng Su pinched the back of his neck twice as a response.
"So what should I do next? I'm very capable. I can make milk tea, cut fruit, wash vegetables, pick vegetables, and wash dishes!"
When Wang Qiuni first escaped, she was penniless. The owner of a small roadside restaurant was worried that something might happen to her as a girl outside, so she dragged her in to eat a bowl of noodles. After that, she stayed in the kitchen to help wash vegetables and dishes, doing odd jobs.
From then on, Wang Qiuni embarked on the difficult journey of supporting herself.
Qin Qinsen seemed to have sensed something when he heard this. He looked at Fang Nanxing, who was dizzy from the glare of the academic bully, and said, "Your Yixiangzhai is in need of a helper."
"Huh?" Fang Nanxing pointed at his nose, his face full of question marks. "Yixiangzhai is run by my parents, so they don't need any staff."
"It's your store, and we're short of staff."
The emphasis is on "your", and even a fool can hear the different meaning.
"Me? Oh my... I can open a shop!" Fang Nanxing was pleasantly surprised, but then became confused. "No, that's not right. I won't graduate until next year. How can I have the time to open a shop now?"
Not wanting to listen to his stupidity anymore, Qin Qinsen said bluntly, "Your future store will need a manager, and now is the best time for you to start. Yunyao."
Wang Qiuni, no, she should be called Yun Yao. She stood upright and looked at the man who helped change the trajectory of her fate. "Master, please speak."
"Don't be so nervous. Just call me brother like Nanxing does." Qin Qinsen's eyes were deep, as if he could see through all her thoughts. "From today on, you may have to live under someone else's roof for a while. Can you accept that?"
Yun Yao nodded seriously, "I can do it."
"Don't be so serious. I will arrange your food, clothing, housing and transportation. However, you may have to go to Yixiangzhai or Siyuntang during your holidays..."
"Ahem."
Suddenly there was a cough beside him. Qin Qinsen felt amused and added, "Or Teng family, please help a little."
"I can do it. I'm not afraid of hard work and I can do anything!"
"Don't worry, these little things won't affect your studies. You can contact me if anything happens in the future. After all, it was me who asked you to change your name and cut off all ties with the past, so I naturally have to take responsibility." Qin Qinsen suddenly touched his chin and smacked his lips. "Speaking of which, does the high school have parent-teacher conferences? I haven't held one for anyone yet, so you must call me when the time comes."
Teng Su patted the back of his head. Qin Qinsen's sudden jump obviously made the other two people a little uncomfortable.
"I will arrange for you to change your name as soon as possible. Your student status should still be there. I will contact your principal later. Get ready to go back to school." Facing a little girl who was less than 20 years old but had such an unfortunate fate, no matter how cold and hard Teng Su was, he couldn't help but soften his tone.
"You're not still planning to live here, are you? It's so disgusting... Oh, right!" Fang Nanxing slapped his forehead and immediately called his mother.
After explaining the whole story, Fang Nanxing hung up the phone, put his hands on his hips, and said proudly, "Pack your things and come with me. My mother has arranged a place for you to stay."
"But……"
Yun Yao's gaze drifted towards the balcony. Qin Qinsen's fingertips moved slightly, and he smiled knowingly, "Take it with you. Cats are psychic. Having them around is a good thing for you."
Hearing this, Yun Yao was overjoyed. She immediately rolled up her sleeves, took the equipment she had prepared earlier and went downstairs to catch the cat.
From today on, she is Yun Yao, who has a brother, friends, and cats (more than one)!
