Chapter 283 Birth Gift
Yu Li teased her, "What our Queen Xi Xi said makes a lot of sense. When your uncle comes back later, you can argue with him in front of him. You can do it!"
Qi Xi immediately backed down, "I can't do it. I was just expressing my opinion. I tremble when I speak in front of my uncle, and you want me to argue with him? This is more terrifying than the earth being destroyed tomorrow."
The two best friends were joking around when Zhou Heran, who had been listening outside for a while, walked in with a smile and said, "What Xixi said makes perfect sense."
“From now on, our child will take Xixi’s surname. After all, I will be relying on our little CEO Qi to support me in the future. As a stay-at-home husband, I need to be self-aware enough.”
Qi Xi blushed and whispered, "I don't want to have a child so early."
Although she liked Zhou Heran very much, she felt that childbirth was too hard for women.
Although having children would certainly make things more lively, she was currently focused on doing her job well and enjoying some alone time with Zhou Heran, not wanting to be disturbed by outsiders or the children.
Zhou Heran came to Qi Xi's side and put his arm around her shoulder.
"Whether or not to have children is up to Xixi. I don't care. Even if we don't have children in the future, it's fine as long as you're happy."
Before meeting Qi Xi, Zhou Heran had never thought about dating or getting married.
As for children, having them would be great, but not having them wouldn't affect his relationship with Qi Xi at all.
Besides, he and Qi Xi shared the same idea and wanted to live a simple life together.
Moreover, while Zhou Heran appeared relaxed watching Yu Li's childbirth process, even filming it with a DV camera, he was actually deeply affected.
He didn't want Qi Xi to suffer so much. He wanted his little girl to be free and happy, not to be tied down by anyone or anything, and to just do what she wanted and liked to do.
Qi Xi turned her head and quickly gave Zhou Heran a kiss on the cheek.
"Zhouzhou is the best."
Yu Li, who had just been fed a mouthful of food, pretended to be deeply moved and covered her baby's eyes, clicking her tongue and saying, "You said that Shen Yan and I were leading Xiao Xiao astray, but Xi Xi, you and He Ran are so lovey-dovey. The younger generation is surpassing the older generation."
Just then, the Qi family arrived.
"Oh my little darling, come here, let Grandpa hold you."
Upon seeing the baby, Grandpa Qi's face was full of wrinkles from smiling.
While holding the child, Grandpa Qi put a koi-shaped pure gold bracelet on the baby's wrist.
The design is exquisite, clearly made specifically for babies.
At the same time, he took out a brocade box. The lid was not closed. Inside, instead of gold and silver jewelry, were several pieces of paper.
What appeared to be just a few thin sheets of paper turned into astonishing details as Grandpa Qi explained them.
"This is a villa in Fengshan District, and this is an amusement park in Phoenix Ridge. It's still under construction. By the time my precious grandson learns to walk, it should be almost finished."
"And this is a trust fund established in my grandson's name. I was thinking that instead of writing checks directly, a trust fund can continuously accumulate wealth, which is also a small guarantee for my grandson."
Finally, this is the big one: "These are the elite schools I acquired, from kindergarten to high school. I spent a long time selecting them; they all have top-notch educational resources, even internationally."
"As for university, it depends on whether my granddaughter wants to stay in China or study abroad after graduating from high school. I think that by then she will be 18 years old and an adult, and it will be time for her to make her own decision."
It turns out that the first gift I received, the pure gold bracelet, was just the most insignificant one among many gifts. To use a Chinese idiom, it was merely a way to get the best of a bad situation.
Not only Yu Li, but Qi Xi and Zhou Heran were also shocked by the inhuman extravagance of Old Master Qi.
Although Zhou Heran was from a wealthy family, even when he was born, the Zhou family did not provide him with everything from clothing, food, housing, and transportation by simply giving him gifts.
However, let alone the Zhou family, even among the Qi family members themselves, no descendant has ever received such a generous gift from Old Master Qi as Xiaoxiao.
"Dad, these gifts are too expensive. Xiaoxiao is still so young, she really can't accept them. This bracelet is enough."
Grandpa Qi sighed, "These are just appetizers. I think these vulgar things that can be bought with money are not good enough for my dear grandson."
Although Yu Li knew that the Qi family was wealthy, this was simply too extravagant. Giving away a villa in Fengshan District where land was incredibly valuable was one thing.
They even acquired amusement parks and schools, truly making the most of the money they could buy.
No wonder people say that the real elite families are beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
Even though Yu Li has been married to Qi Chenyan for almost a year, Qi Chenyan is still quite low-key in his daily life, and he tries to make sure that Yu Li's food, clothing, and housing are all normal in order to help her adapt.
It wasn't until Old Master Qi intervened that Yu Li truly understood what it meant to accidentally stumble into the imperial family; the lives of the wealthy were completely unimaginable to ordinary people.
Yu Li wanted to politely decline, after all, the baby was so young, and these gifts were far too expensive.
Qi Chenyan's calm voice rang out: "Lili, since these are all gifts that Dad carefully prepared for Xiaoxiao, then accept them."
"If Xiaoxiao doesn't want these gifts after she grows up, she can return them to her father at any time. Besides, these gifts aren't very expensive. After all, Xiaoxiao will be our only child in the future."
"As the little princess of the Qi family, these things are nothing special to her."
Since Qi Chenyan had said so, Yu Li didn't stand on ceremony anymore. "Thank you, Dad. You've gone to so much trouble."
"These are all material possessions. Lili, you've worked so hard to give birth to such a lovely grandson for our Qi family. As his father, I should be thanking you."
Yu Li had just given birth, and after chatting with everyone for a while, she was clearly a little tired.
Qi Chenyan had been keeping an eye on her condition. Seeing that Yu Li was tired, he made an excuse to let everyone disperse first and come to visit her later.
"This is Xiaoxiao's birth certificate. Although the surname is Qi on the birth certificate, it can be changed when she gets her ID card."
Yu Li blinked. "You want Xiaoxiao to take my surname?"
“I hadn’t considered this issue before. Lili, you went through ten months of pregnancy and even went through a near-death experience to give birth to Xiaoxiao. The child should naturally take the mother’s surname.”
"Besides, this is our child. Whether he takes after me or you, it's the same."
Qi Chenyan didn't care about any of that, as long as Yu Li was happy.
It seems that Qi Chenyan found out about her casual conversation with Qi Xi earlier.
"That was just a casual chat between Xixi and me. It doesn't matter whose surname Xiaoxiao takes. Since the birth certificate has already been prepared, let's keep it as it is."
"If we really have a falling out in the future and choose to separate, I will definitely take Xiaoxiao with me. It's not too late to change her name then."
