Ch.24 Surname (2)

Ji Xuan quickly said: “You are daddy’s child!”

“Then why don’t I live in my dad’s house and follow my dad’s surname, Ji?”

Ji Xuan didn’t know how to respond again, he could only helplessly look at Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu smiled and said to Xiao Ruoguang which would k.o him :”It’s because you’re living in your mother’s house, so you have to follow your mother’s surname which is Xiao.”

Xiao Ruoguang nodded as if he understood what she meant and said: “Oh, oh, yes, I have lived with my mother ever since I was a small child.”

Ji Xuan: “…….” What? Can she answer that way?

Ji Yu also looked at Xiao Yu suspiciously and said, “If my mother comes to live with us again, what will my last name be?”

Ji Xuan: “……” That’s an interesting way to think about it?

Xiao Yu smiled kindly and said: “You’ll have two surnames to choose from! If you want your surname to be Ji then it can be Ji, or Xiao if you want to.

Ji Xuan: “!!!”

Xiao Yu turned to him and said to Ji Xuan: “Right?”

“Right? Of course it’s not right! You can’t change your surname, right?” Ji Xuan was about to explode.

Xiao Yu said: “You’re so stupid! Whatever surname she uses, the surname on her identification card will not change, so she can be whatever she wants to be named as.”

Ji Xuan: “……” Oh, she’s just deliberately lying to the children.

Ji Yu didn’t understand her, she gave it some thought and said, “Then my surname will still be Ji! If my surname is Xiao, wouldn’t I be Xiao Yu? I’ll have the same name as my mother.”

Xiao Yu raised her eyebrows: “Yes, daughter, how did you know that my name is Xiao Yu?”

Ji Yu smiled triumphantly after being praised, she wrapped her hands around her chest, her nostrils facing upwards, as she proudly said: “It’s written at the tail of your bed! I can understand what it’s saying, I know many words and I can even write some short compositions. None of the kids in school can, they’re all still learning how to read.”

Xiao Yu nodded, but Xiao Ruoguang, on one side, lowered his head in shame. Ji Xuan saw it and quickly carcassed Xiao Ruoguang’s head as he said, “Wait until we head back. Dad will contact the people in your sister’s kindergarten, and you’ll go to school too.”

Xiao Ruoguang raised his head, his eyes gleaming, and he said, “Can I go to school?”

Ji Xuan nodded firmly, Xiao Ruoguang hugged Ji Xuan and said in a trembling cry: “Thank you, Dad! You’re the best father.”

Ji Xuan felt like as if he was floating in mid-air and Xiao Ruoguang said again: “Dad, let me walk you out!”

Ji Xuan nodded dazedly, he held onto Xiao Ruoguang’s hand and walked out. Ji Yu that was left behind frowned and muttered angrily: “Stupid old man,he’s more fond over his new son now that he’s forgotten all about me, hmph.”

Ban Zhenye could only hold onto Ji Yu’s hand as she said, “Say goodbye to your mom!”

Ji Yu turned around and said to Xiao Yu: “Goodbye, mom.” After giving it some thought, she blushed as she whispered: “I will come along to pick you up tomorrow.”

Xiao Yu flashed a motherly smile and said: “I’ll be waiting for you, remember to share with Teacher Yi about this good news.”

Ji Yu tilted her head, she looked as adorable as a doll, and asked: “About what?”

Xiao Yu wanted to raise her hand, but found that she couldn’t, so she smiled rather motherly again and said, “Silly child, you should tell Teacher Yi that you’re coming to pick up your mom tomorrow! Teachers like good children, that way, she’ll not be angry at you when you ask for a leave tomorrow, she’ll actually also praise you for being such a sensible and filial child.”

Ji Yu’s eyes widened: “Really? Will Teacher Yi like me even more?”

Xiao Yu smiled confidently and said the two words without hesitation: “Of course.”

Ji Yu nodded, Ben Zhenye: “……”
