But when she really faced it, she still found it hard to accept.
Anyway.
Regardless of whether you want it or not, it happened.
It doesn't matter whether she accepts it or not, she still has to face it as usual.
Li Xia had never thought about the adoption that Mr. Shan mentioned.
But since he said so.
She also more or less guessed what he wanted to discuss with her.
I guess it's related to this.
Old Man Shan waited for a while, and seeing that Li Xia didn't say anything, he opened his mouth and slowly told him his plan.
"Girl, Grandpa's eldest son is about the same age as your father. I also think that you and I are really compatible. I have a selfish desire for you to become Grandpa's real granddaughter. I wonder what you think. Are you willing?"
He assured her, "Don't worry, my eldest son and daughter-in-law are both very kind people. It's just that God played a joke on these two people who love each other. They can't have children together."
When Mr. Shan mentioned this matter, the worry on his face could not be dissipated and he sighed heavily.
He had been a good person all his life, but he never expected to end up with an empty child.
He was half buried in the soil.
Even hearing the word "grandpa" has become a luxury.
Most old people of his age would already be surrounded by children and grandchildren.
"So, grandpa, you mean to adopt me for your son and daughter-in-law?"
Li Xia blinked her eyes.
"I'm not doing this for them. They also have this intention, but the fate has not come yet, so this matter has been shelved."
Mr. Shan was worried that Li Xia had misunderstood something, so he explained.
"Grandpa, I..."
"Host, the headquarters has sent the latest instructions, asking me to tell you that you must agree to what this old man said. The higher-ups said that this is necessary for the plot. If you refuse, you will not be able to complete the subsequent world missions."
Although Li Xia could feel the old man's kindness, she didn't want to live a dependent life unless she had no other choice.
In her opinion, there is no essential difference between being adopted and going to an orphanage.
They are all living under someone else's roof.
What's more, adoption depends not only on fate, but more on God's will.
Li Xia has never been adopted, but she has seen on welfare that other orphans in the orphanage have been adopted.
Among those orphans adopted by kind-hearted people, not many of them actually live a good life.
There are even quite a few children who were sent back to welfare homes by their adoptive parents.
They also have to put some false accusations on them.
Say they are difficult to discipline, difficult to tame, and are disobedient wild children.
These orphans who were adopted and sent back were like being in darkness, being pulled back to the light, and then being ruthlessly pushed back into the abyss.
This caused a huge change in their psychology.
It is very unhealthy for the development of body and mind.
After Li Xia was abandoned by her parents, she was fortunately not adopted or abandoned again.
After confirming Mr. Shan’s plan, she wanted to refuse.
But before she could utter a word, the mechanical sound of the system broke into her eardrums.
After hearing this, Li Xia bit her lips to express her speechlessness.
"Can't I just say it once and for all?"
She communicates with the system using her heart voice.
The system spread its hands and said, "Host, regarding your request, I can only say that I am powerless."
No matter how long its arms are, it has no right to reach out to the General Administration.
Li Xia lowered her head, thought for a few seconds, and asked, "Does it have to be like this?"
"Um, yes, host."
The system nodded.
"Okay, I understand." Li Xia replied.
"Girl, what do you think?"
Mr. Shan opened his mouth and said.
He saw Li Xia kept her head down and felt unsure.
Not sure what she thought.
Li Xia bit her lower lip and raised her eyes, "Grandpa, I won't change my name, okay?"
She made an offer.
Since she had no choice, she could only do as the system said.
But Li Xia still wants to keep her own name.
Not only is it a symbol of her identity, there is another reason.
The original owner had the same name and surname as me.
Keeping your own name is equivalent to keeping the name of the original owner.
Father Li is no longer with us.
She and this father, with whom she had lived for two years, had from then on the only thing that proved their father-daughter relationship was this name.
"I thought it was a big deal. Grandpa made the decision for you. You don't have to change your name. By the way, I never had the chance to ask you what your name is."
Mr. Shan suddenly remembered that they had only known each other for a few days, but he didn't even know Li Xia's name.
If you say this to others, I'm afraid people will find it funny.
"My last name is Li, and my given name is Xia, which means summer."
Li Xia opened her lips and said.
"Li Xia, what a good name. Summer is lively and full of energy, which suits you very well. From now on, grandpa will call you Xia Xia."
Mr. Shan accomplished something that was close to his heart, and his face was filled with unconcealable joy.
He really likes the little girl Xia Xia.
Although their acquaintance was not a good memory.
But it was also thanks to this accident.
Otherwise, they probably wouldn't have the chance to meet.
"Xia Xia, take a good rest. Grandpa will go and handle the discharge procedures for you in a while. I want Lao Wang to go to the relevant department here to learn about the adoption matters and see what needs to be prepared."
