Chapter 497 It’s not yours, it’s not yours after all
Cheng Xuyuan and Shen Yumo discussed the child's name for a long time.
Both of them also came up with several names.
These names are also very good in the eyes of many people, but both of them think that the names given by the other are not so good.
So this name has never been determined.
"Yian, do you have any good suggestions?" Cheng Xuyuan did not answer Wang Yian's question, but asked directly.
This rhetorical question actually means that the two of them have not yet discussed this matter.
Wang Yian smiled and said, "It seems that you two haven't even come up with a name yet."
"Someone even said that you are our future literary giant?"
Cheng Xuyuan quickly waved his hands and said, "Wen Hao really praises me too much. I am still far from being good enough."
Wang Yian didn't pay much attention to Cheng Xuyuan's modesty, but said to Shen Yumo: "Yumo, what are your expectations for this child?"
After hearing Wang Yian's question, Shen Yumo hesitated for a moment and said, "I hope he can live a peaceful and happy life in the future."
"As for the rest, I didn't pray for anything."
To live a peaceful life may not sound like a big request, but in fact, it is not a low request.
After all, no one can guarantee that their life will be smooth sailing, safe and sound, or...
"You can't call him Cheng Ping'an." Cheng Xuyuan said casually.
Shen Yumo didn't say anything, but Wang Yian rolled his eyes at him and said, "Look at your level."
"I really doubt whether you wrote those articles."
"If you can think of a name like Pleasant Goat for a sheep, why can't you think of a good name for your child?"
Cheng Xuyuan looked at Wang Yian with disgust, and really wanted to tell him that he was really good at judging people, but in the end he did not say it.
"Yian, do you have any good suggestions?" As if unwilling to see Cheng Xuyuan in embarrassment, Shen Yumo asked Wang Yian.
Wang Yian pondered for a moment and said, "I can't think of a good name for the moment. Why don't I think about it carefully when I get back?"
"Then I'll trouble you, Yian." Shen Yumo said with a smile.
Wang Yian hesitated for a moment and said, "The Cultural Association is planning to hold the fifth workshop, and I have been recommended."
"This is a great thing!" Shen Yumo said happily after hearing Wang Yian's news: "Participating in this workshop can not only improve my writing skills, but also allow me to communicate with a group of like-minded friends."
“This opportunity is rare!”
"Yian, congratulations!"
Wang Yian said with some embarrassment: "Yumo, if I go to this workshop, I might be there for half a year."
"I……"
How could Shen Yumo not understand that Wang Yian was worried about her? She immediately said, "Yian, I'm going to be a full-time writer, what else do you have to worry about?"
"Besides, even if you are worried about me and don't trust me, you won't be worried about him."
"Even if he doesn't care about me, he can't bear to ignore his son."
"Just rest assured."
Hearing Shen Yumo say this, Cheng Xuyuan felt helpless.
What do you mean, even if I don't care about you, I will still take care of my own son? Am I such a person?
Wang Yian looked at Shen Yumo, who looked as if he didn't have to worry about her, and a smile appeared on his face.
Cheng Xuyuan said: "If you need anything when you come to Yanjing, just come to me."
"You can also contact me for matters concerning the workshop. I can basically help with anything."
After hearing what Cheng Xuyuan said, Wang Yian did not doubt it.
With Cheng Xuyuan's current status, he can indeed help with most of the things in this workshop.
"I don't think I have anything to ask you. If you have time in the future, why not go back to the East China Sea more often?"
"Yumo and the child need you more."
Wang Yian's words made Cheng Xuyuan feel helpless, but he had to admit that what he said was for the good of his family.
So at this time, he couldn't get angry and could only quickly return to the kitchen to cook.
Wang Yian took Shen Yumo to the room to talk and look after the children, while Cheng Xuyuan was cooking while thinking about what name he would use to come to Donghai in the future.
Would you like to contribute more to Harvest?
Write more about the cultural journey, and then ask them to invite me to Donghai to revise the manuscript. I believe they will agree.
But this is not a long-term solution!
While picking vegetables, Cheng Xuyuan fell into deep thought.
With reluctance, Shen Yumo sent Wang Yian away.
It wasn't long before the day for Cheng Xuyuan to leave arrived!
Cheng Xuyuan has been away from Yanjing for more than a month, and he has also finished writing the script he promised Xie Jin.
Also, someone from Yenching Literature and Art sent a message to him, asking him to return to Yenching on time to attend the second Outstanding Short Story Award Ceremony.
With all these things happening at once, Cheng Xuyuan had to go back to Yanjing.
This time, Cheng Xuyuan chose to take a plane.
Director Xie, who was overjoyed after seeing the script, had someone arrange the plane ticket for him. Not only did he give Cheng Xuyuan the plane ticket, he also gave Cheng Xuyuan 2,000 yuan in royalties for the script.
Although he had no shortage of money, Cheng Xuyuan still felt that Director Xie was open and aboveboard.
After eating as usual and watching his well-fed son fall asleep, Cheng Xuyuan said to Shen Yumo, "I went to the old house yesterday, and the smell of the renovation has basically dissipated."
"I think you should find a time in a few days to move in."
Shen Yumo was packing Cheng Xuyuan's luggage. She put two sets of washed clothes in the suitcase and said, "Although the old house is spacious, I'm not used to living there."
"It's better to live comfortably here."
"And I'm familiar with the neighbors around here."
“I don’t want to move to another place now.”
Cheng Xuyuan said solemnly: "Didn't we agree to give the child a good environment to grow up in?"
"If I were here..."
Cheng Xuyuan didn't say what was going on here, but Shen Yumo knew it in his heart.
After that, Cheng Xuyuan came less often, and the neighbors couldn't help talking about this matter.
This is not good for little An An's growth.
Shen Yumo wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't.
After a moment of silence, Cheng Xuyuan said, "Let's discuss this later."
"But I'm really worried about you taking care of the child alone. Why don't you let Yian, your relative, come and help take care of the child?"
"We should give money."
Shen Yumo said: "If I'm at work, it's ok to ask Yian's relatives to come over."
"The point is that I don't have to go to work right now, so it's a bit inappropriate to have Yian's relatives come over."
"I'll take care of her myself for a while. If I can't do that, I'll ask Yian to ask her relatives to come over."
Cheng Xuyuan really wanted to say that you can’t handle it all by yourself, but in the end, Cheng Xuyuan said nothing.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to say it, but because of his relationship with Shen Yumo, some of the words were too blunt and not good.
The two of them lay quietly on either side of the bed, just like they always did.
However, it was different from the past. In the past, even though two people lay in the same bed, they would fall asleep quickly.
But now, not only Cheng Xuyuan couldn't sleep, but Shen Yumo couldn't sleep either.
"After you go back this time, don't run around so often unless you have something to do." Shen Yumo finally spoke, with a hint of determination in his voice, "I was willful in this matter."
"You have fulfilled your obligations."
"If you come here too often, it won't be good if people know about it."
Shen Yumo didn't say who this person was, but Cheng Xuyuan understood what she meant.
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "Although it was you who decided to give birth to this child, I don't regret it when I see him."
“And I’m very grateful.”
"I will come if I have to, unless you feel that I am disturbing your life."
Shen Yumo hesitated for a moment, then sighed and said, "I...I don't think you're disturbing my life."
"Not now, and not ever."
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and did not dwell on this matter. Instead, he smiled and said, "I can't give him a complete family, so I will try my best to give him a happy life."
"It's very convenient to come to Donghai. I'll come here when I have time."
Shen Yumo didn't say anything else. She stared at the ceiling with wide eyes, various thoughts rapidly surging in her mind.
More than ten minutes later, Shen Yumo said, "When you go back and see my brother, tell him not to tell my family about this."
"If I want to say it, I'll say it myself."
Cheng Xuyuan hesitated for a moment and said, "I'll go back and discuss this with Brother Yulin."
"It's not good to keep it a secret forever."
"I think we should find a chance to talk it out."
Shen Yumo did not respond, but her eyes were blinking gently. In the moonlight, Cheng Xuyuan felt that tears were flowing from those bright eyes.
He hesitated for a moment, then picked up a handkerchief and gently wiped the tears from Shen Yumo's eyes and said, "I will go and talk to you about this matter."
"I won't let you face this alone."
Shen Yumo said calmly: "I'm not afraid of this matter, I just feel a little guilty towards my parents."
"But I have no regrets about this matter."
At this point, she looked at Cheng Xuyuan and said, "I have never regretted the decision I made in Southern Xinjiang last year."
Cheng Xuyuan naturally understood the meaning of Shen Yumo's words.
He looked at Shen Yumo through the child and wanted to say something, but at this moment, he couldn't say anything.
As the night deepened, the two people's voices became quieter and quieter.
Gradually, Shen Yumo thought he heard Cheng Xuyuan's light snoring.
Listening to this voice, she felt extremely peaceful in her heart.
She gently turned sideways, glanced at the child beside her, and her eyes fell on Cheng Xuyuan's face again.
It's really reassuring to have him here.
But, he didn't belong to him after all.
He was about to go back, back to the life he was familiar with.
And I also have to start raising my child alone.
At this time, a sentence inexplicably arose in Shen Yumo's mind.
What is not yours will never be yours! (End of this chapter)
