Chapter 423: Remember, Your Name Is Li Yangui
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Yaoyao and Youyou were exhausted today. They slept very soundly on the way back. Youyou had to hug Yaoyao’s arm even when she was asleep. Yaoyao’s head was leaning in Li Xiwu’s arms, and he looked very obedient when he After the car arrived at Lake Lu, Pei Jingzhou got out of the car and carried Youyou down. Youyou was still hugging Yaoyao’s arm. This slight tug woke him up.
Li Xiwu panicked when she saw Yaoyao wake up. ‘Yaoyao,” she called gently. Yaoyao raised his hand to rub his relaxed eyes and replied in a daze, “Mm.”
Li Xiwu first tidied Yaoyao’s clothes and hair before carrying him. She said to him, “We’re going to a new place later.” Yaoyao’s open eyes looked blank. “Where to?”
Li Xiwu said, “Let’s go in first.”
Pei Jingzhou waited outside the car. He had also listened to the conversation between Li Xiwu and Yaoyao. His mood was similar to Li Xiwu’s, and he was afraid that Yaoyao would resist coming here.
Because they hadn’t asked Yaoyao’s permission before coming.
Li Xiwu got out of the car and reached out to Yaoyao.
Yaoyao said, “I can walk on my own.”
Li Xiwu smiled gently. “I’ll carry you up.”
Yaoyao pursed his lips. “But I’m very heavy.”
Li Xiwu said, “Yaoyao isn’t heavy at all. It’s just right for me to carry you.”
During this period of time, Li Xiwu had learned a lot about Yaoyao’s personality. Yaoyao rarely let her carry him, not because of the distance, but because he was afraid that if he was too heavy, Li Xiwu would find it difficult to carry him.
She also observed that occasionally, when Pei Jingzhou hugged Yaoyao, Yaoyao would be very happy because Yaoyao knew that it would not be difficult for Pei Jingzhou to carry him.
He actually knew everything. He’s just not good at expressing it.
On the way up by the elevator, Pei Jingzhou and Li Xiwu did not speak. The two of them gave Yaoyao a very quiet space by an unspoken mutual understanding. It was quiet, but it was also convenient for them to observe Yaoyao’s reaction.
Yaoyao did not show a trace of nervousness. He stayed steadily in Li Xiwu’s arms. When they reached the door, Pei Jingzhou opened the door and entered first. Li Xiwu stood at the door. She took a deep breath and adjusted her tone.
She said carefully to Yaoyao, “We’re home, Yaoyao.”
Yaoyao turned to look at the scene in the room, then slowly turned around and lay in Li Xiwu’s arms without saying a word.
Pei Jingzhou placed the sleeping Youyou back in the children’s room and came out. He walked to Li Xiwu and reached out. “Let me do it.”
Li Xiwu nodded and let go slightly. Pei Jingzhou took the Yaoyao. Pei Jingzhou put down Yaoyao and said softly, “Stand properly.” Yaoyao stood obediently in front of Pei Jingzhou. Pei Jingzhou took half a step back and slowly squatted down. He said to Yaoyao, “Welcome home, young brat.”
Yaoyao’s pupils had obvious changes. There was shock and surprise. The emotional changes might not be as vivid, but his eyes would not lie. Yaoyao looked at Pei Jingzhou, then up at Li Xiwu. His gaze went back and forth a few times. He shook his head and said in a muffled voice, “This is not my home.”
Pei Jingzhou said, “It’s your home.”
Yaoyao continued to shake his head. “No.”
Pei Jingzhou said, “This isn’t your home. Where do you want it to be?”
Yaoyao didn’t answer. The answer in his mind was: here. But he knew that this was not the case. This was Youyou’s home and had nothing to do with him. But he knew that as long as he listened obediently and made them like him all the time, he could come here often to play.
“Li Yangui!” Pei Jingzhou shouted in a low voice.
The name that Pei Jingzhou suddenly shouted not only puzzled Yaoyao, but also Li Xiwu. However, the surprised reaction was only for a moment. She quickly realized that Pei Jingzhou wanted to use his method to let Yaoyao know that he belonged to this family.
At the thought of this, Li Xiwu remained silent and did not interfere with Pei Jingzhou’s actions.
Pei Jingzhou reached out and gently placed his hands on Yaoyao’s shoulders, bringing him in front of him. “This is the name your grandfather gave you, Li Yangui.”
Yaoyao was stunned and did not react for a long time.
Pei Jingzhou knew that he was being too anxious at this moment. During this period of time, Yaoyao’s trust in him had increased a lot. However, Li Xiwu’s words today reminded him that if he did not do anything, Yaoyao would probably always think that he was liked by them because he was pretending to be obedient.
He knew that Yaoyao’s mind was a few years older than his actual age, so he believed that Yaoyao would understand what he meant.
“Remember, from now on, your name is Li Yangui. From now on, I’ll call you
that from time to time. You have to get used to it. Youyou’s name is Li
Yansheng. She’s your twin sister. Li Yangui, do you understand what I mean?
Yaoyao was silent. No one could tell if he understood what Pei Jingzhou meant or not understood a word.
Father and son looked at each other for a moment.
Just as Pei Jingzhou was about to repeat what he had just said, Yaoyao said in his usual muffled voice, “Why am I Li Yangm?
Pei Jingzhou’s eyes flickered and he lowered his gaze. “I’m sorry about back then. I didn’t know about the birth of you and Youyou. If I had known, you would have grown up by my side.”
Yaoyao’s nasal voice was heavy and buzzing. “So are you my father?”
Pei Jingzhou replied, “Yes.”
This moment might be too illusory and not that real to Yaoyao, but to Pei Jingzhou, this was a good start. Pei Jingzhou was very satisfied. He stood up and looked at Li Xiwu, giving her a reassuring look.
Li Xiwu felt a lump in her throat. She had been calming down. Seeing the look Pei Jingzhou gave her, she felt much more at ease. Next, Pei Jingzhou would slowly start letting Yaoyao get used to his new name.
Yaoyao was here for the first time today and was a little restrained. He didn’t know where to go, so he sat obediently on the sofa.
“Li Yangui.” Pei Jingzhou brought the dragon fruit that Li Xiwu had cut and placed it in front of Yaoyao.
Yaoyao picked up his fork and ate a piece. Pei Jingzhou would ask again, “Li Yangui, is the dragon fruit delicious?
Yaoyao turned to look at Pei Jingzhou with a frown. He was conflicted about whether to say this or not. In the end, he mustered his courage and said to Pei Jingzhou, “Can you call me Yaoyao like before?
Pei Jingzhou said, “Sure.”
Yaoyao grinned.
Pei Jingzhou said, “But you have to get used to this new name first.”
Yaoyao: ( 7. 7 )
Pei Jingzhou said, “What kind of look is that, Li Yangul?
Yaoyao turned his head away from Pei Jingzhou. “I understand. My name is Li Yangui.”
Pei Jingzhou smiled. “Say it again. I didn’t hear you clearly.”
Yaoyao said loudly, “Got it. My name is Li Yangui. You useless father. If you have the ability, let me take your surname.”
Pei Jingzhou sneered.. “Heh…”
