After making the little girl anxious, Shen Huaizhi smiled with satisfaction.
Although this back and forth was embarrassing, the nervousness and uneasiness in Shen Yunqing's heart was diluted a lot.
She wrapped her fingers around the phone cord: "Huaizhi, seriously, although my parents plan to correct the household registration, they don't plan to change my name."
"From now on, my surname will still be Shen."
Shen Huaizhi smiled and said, "So what? No one says a couple can't have the same surname."
Shen Yunqing's face turned redder and she scolded him.
"Stop it, you know what I mean."
Shen Huaizhi then restrained his smile.
"I understand. I just heard from Qingzhou that my parents said they will treat you as their own daughter from now on."
Shen Yunqing uttered a dull "hmm".
She thought that if she could change her life experience, she could naturally and openly date Shen Huaizhi.
But looking at the situation today, I understand that some things can be clearly divided legally but not emotionally.
Shen Nianxian and Meng Lanting treated her as no different from their own daughter.
"I'm afraid...if we date in the future, my parents won't be able to accept it."
"I don't want them to be angry and blame me."
She didn't want to hurt their feelings because of this.
"No, don't think too much. Mom and Dad are always understanding. Maybe they will understand us."
Shen Huaizhi comforted in a soft voice.
"If it's true... I was the one who crossed the line first. No matter what happens next, I will take responsibility."
"With me here, your parents won't blame you."
"My parents loved us so much since we were little. Even if they were angry, they wouldn't be too harsh on us."
He pretended to be nonchalant: "The worst that can happen is that I'll be punished by being made to kneel in the yard with my back bare, just like when we were little."
Although Shen Huaizhi is still quite calm now, he was the complete opposite when he was a child.
He was only a few years old at that time, at the age of playing and running wildly. He and his friends jumped up and down in the yard every day, climbed trees and dug holes, and were nicknamed "Sky Monkey".
Children are lively and it is natural for them to make mistakes.
He still remembers that Shen Yunqing at that time was well-behaved and cute, like a chubby little pink dumpling, and he couldn't let her go.
No matter where he went, he almost always took Shen Yunqing with him.
Once, he and his friends went to the small lotus pond in the yard to touch the lotus nodes and ran around in the mud.
I accidentally fell into the mud and was stained the same color as the mud from head to toe, making me unrecognizable.
Little Yunqing, who was playing on the shore, thought her brother was missing and called out to him loudly in fright.
Shen Huaizhi wanted to respond, but the soft and tender voice was so cute that he couldn't help wanting to listen a few more times, so he didn't answer.
Unexpectedly, Shen Yunqing was so anxious that he burst into tears and rushed into the pond without thinking, crying and muttering.
"Save my brother, save my brother..."
Although the water in the pond is shallow, Xiao Yunqing is short.
In addition, the water had been stirred up, and when the little kid ran in, only two clumps of fish were left on the water surface, bubbling.
Shen Huaizhi was frightened and rushed to rescue him.
Although he escaped danger, Shen Yunqing still choked on the mud and water several times, and his whole body was dirty.
After returning home, Shen Nianxian and his wife were shocked and angry after learning the whole story.
But the couple loves their children after all.
They first bathed the brother and sister and changed their clothes without saying a word, and then Shen Nianxian held Shen Yunqing in his arms and asked with a serious face.
"Huaizhi, do you know you're wrong?"
Shen Huaizhi looked at his sister who had washed herself clean and was sleeping on his father's shoulder, breathed a sigh of relief, and nodded obediently.
"I know I was wrong."
"Since you know you are wrong, you must accept the punishment."
Although Shen Nianxian and his wife loved their children, they also set rules for them since they were young.
If you make a mistake, you have to choose between running or kneeling.
In the past, Shen Huaizhi would definitely choose to run.
After all, he has good physical strength, so three kilometers is no problem for him. It doesn't take him long at all. Instead, he is tortured by being punished by kneeling.
But after thinking about it, he really couldn't let go of his sister who had just recovered.
So he had no choice but to kneel bareback for three hours under the sun in late summer and early autumn.
Seeing that there was only one hour left, the little girl woke up and ran out of the bedroom, looking for her brother everywhere.
"elder brother……"
Seeing Shen Huaizhi's head full of sweat and his body sunburned red, he cried out "Wow".
The little pink ball stumbled over and raised his tiny hands helplessly, trying to build a shed with his hands to provide him with shade.
The moment he realized that his hands were too small and could not help at all, the little girl cried even louder.
Upon hearing the noise, Shen Nianxian and his wife rushed over, distressed and wanting to coax her and hug her.
But the usually obedient little Dumpling suddenly became stubborn and avoided their hands, throwing himself into Shen Huaizhi's arms and refusing to let go.
"Don't let my brother kneel, don't let my brother kneel..."
The little dumpling cried and shouted.
Shen Nianxian and Meng Lanting persuaded for a long time, but there was really no other way, so they could only exempt Shen Huaizhi from punishment.
The scenes from my childhood are still vivid in my mind.
That was when I was a kid.
If Shen Huaizhi were to be made to kneel bare-backed in the yard as punishment...
Shen Yunqing couldn't help but think of Shen Huaizhi's broad shoulders and narrow waist, a nearly perfect proportion.
She shuddered on the other end of the phone.
The picture was so beautiful that she didn't dare to think further.
Hearing that Shen Yunqing didn't answer, Shen Huaizhi thought she was still worried, and deliberately laughed twice to diffuse the atmosphere.
"What's wrong, Qingqing? Are you really afraid that I'll be punished to kneel?"
"Don't worry, those were things from our childhood, and my parents won't think too much of it."
"And think about it, your parents love you so much, they definitely won't want you to marry far away. When the time comes, you marry me and become a member of the Shen family in another sense. How great is that."
"My parents must be laughing secretly!"
Shen Yunqing almost died of laughter when he heard this.
"If your parents knew you were thinking this way, they probably wouldn't make you kneel, but they would beat you!"
Hearing her laugh, Shen Huaizhi's nerves relaxed and he laughed too.
But after all, this is not a trivial matter, and Shen Yunqing is still a little nervous.
"So...when are you going to tell your parents?"
she asked hesitantly.
Shen Huaizhi calculated the time and sighed.
"There's been a lot going on in the army lately, and I'm afraid Yanbei and I won't have time to go back."
"Let's wait until next month's vacation. Mom and Dad should be almost fully recovered by then."
"When the time comes to confront each other, my parents should be able to hold on."
Shen Yunqing felt sorry for his parents who were about to know the truth when he heard this shocking news right after he recovered.
"Hmm... Does this card have to be played so quickly?"
Shen Huaizhi chuckled: "Not necessarily, anyway, don't worry, just focus on your own things first."
"I'm here for everything. I'll take care of it."
When he said that, Shen Yunqing felt relieved for no reason.
"Okay, I'll wait for you to come back."
"My dear."
