Chapter 421: Chapter 424 The Issue of the Baby’s Surname_1

"Wanqing.." Xiao Haotian spoke up.

Su Xiaoxi turned her head to look at Xiao Haotian, her expression surprised: "Are you calling me?"

Xiao Haotian was silent, then after a while he said: "Wanqing, I know, even if I apologize to you on behalf of my parents, it can’t make up for the harm they did to you.."

Su Xiaoxi let out a sigh: "Ah, I don’t know what you’re talking about. If this is your way of picking up girls.. well, I admit it’s pretty innovative. But it’s useless on me. I’m a woman engaged to be married, I don’t want to get entangled with other men. Especially, since you are the boyfriend of my best friend, who is currently pregnant. This, isn’t good for anyone."

Xiao Haotian looked at Su Xiaoxi, his voice was flat: "Look into my eyes, dare you to deny that you are not my sister, Xiao Wanqing?"

"Puff! People adopt cousins, but you adopt a sister straight away. Your way of hitting on me is bold, but actually very clumsy." After Su Xiaoxi finished, she directly looked into Xiao Haotian’s eyes and said coolly: "Though I don’t need to explain so much to you. But to clear up misunderstandings and get rid of your entanglement, I will do as you wish, I will look right into your eyes. Then tell you: I, Su Xiaoxi, am not who you say I am, Xiao Wanqing!"

When Xiao Haotian saw Su Xiaoxi’s firm gaze, not a single wavering in her eyes, he felt a bit shaken inside.

"Did I really make a mistake?"

Su Xiaoxi took back her gaze and waved her hand: "Goodbye, Mr. Xiao."

After saying this, she turned around and left.

Xiao Haotian stood in place, after a while, he shook his head, preparing to go back to his apartment, but then his phone rang.

Pressing the answer button, Xiao Haotian said: "Coco, where did you run off to?"

Xiao Ke on the other end of the line chuckled: "I’m at a friend’s gathering."

"Hmm.. sounds like you’re having fun. Did something good happen?" Xiao Haotian said with a smile.

The scene of Yang Gang kissing her suddenly popped up in Xiao Ke’s mind and she somewhat collapsed.

"Why, why am I thinking about this?! This is the most embarrassing thing for me!"

"Coco?" Not hearing a reply for a while, Xiao Haotian asked again.

"Oh, I’m here." Xiao Ke paused then said: "Brother, what are you talking about, what good thing? Oh, right, today I met a sister at a gathering. We hit it right off. I guess that’s a good thing."

Xiao Haotian’s mouth twitched: "Coco, don’t tell me you’re really lesbian?"

"Nonsense!" Xiao Ke denied categorically: "I have a man I like. If it wasn’t for our parents insisting that I marry the fiance I’ve never met, we would’ve been together already!"

"Oh, parents really are.. they were too superstitious in the past, causing your sister to go missing, her life or death unknown." Xiao Haotian said helplessly.

Xiao Ke was stunned, then she whispered: "Um, brother, in our house, talking about my sister is always a sensitive topic, no one dares to talk about her. The year my sister disappeared, I was only five years old, I barely remember what she looked like. Brother, can you tell me about my sister?"

She paused, then continued: "I overheard someone saying once, even though she and I are biological siblings, our treatment in the family was worlds apart. I was the princess cherished by everyone, while my sister was disliked by our parents. Even though she was the young mistress of the Xiao family, her status wasn’t even as good as a servant’s. Why was that?"

Her tone was full of self-blame.

Xiao Haotian sighed: "Silly girl, this isn’t your fault."

"I want to know why? Why did our parents treat my sister like that?" Xiao Ke asked again.

Xiao Haotian was silent for a while, then said: "This involves a lot of things. Knowing too much isn’t really good for you."

"Oh." Xiao Ke didn’t ask any more questions. She knew Xiao Haotian well. If he didn’t want to talk about something, asking him was useless.

Gu Xiaorou’s apartment.

That night, Gu Xiaorou’s gaze never left Zhang Miao’s belly.

At first, Zhang Miao didn’t care, then she tolerated it, and finally she couldn’t bear it anymore.

"I mean, Xiaorou, you can also give birth." Zhang Miao said bluntly.

Whoosh!

Gu Xiaorou’s face turned red: "What? Can’t I even look at my own baby? Stingy!"

She paused, then asked: "By the way, Sister Miao, have you named the baby yet?"

Zhang Miao rolled her eyes: "I don’t even know if it’s a boy or a girl yet, how can I name it?"

"Name two then." Gu Xiaorou said.

Zhang Miao thought for a moment: "Okay, if it’s a girl, Xiaorou, you name her. If it’s a boy, Yang Gang can name him."

Zhang Yu was not satisfied: "Sister, what about me? I’m the baby’s uncle!"

Zhang Miao laughed: "You just be in charge of selecting the baby’s surname."

"Huh?" Zhang Yu was stunned: "Isn’t the baby’s last name Xiao?"

"Principally, yes. But I always feel that the surname Xiao is hard to pick a name for. Look at Xiao Tiao, Xiao Se, they’re not good words. It’s better to have the surname Yang."

Zhang Yu’s face darkened: "The word impotence in Yang sounds worse."

This time it was Yang Gang whose face turned dark: "Hey, Zhang Yu, don’t attack me personally."

Zhang Miao glared at both Yang Gang and Zhang Yu: "You two, be quiet!"

Yang Gang and Zhang Yu immediately silenced.

Gu Xiaorou marveled, full of envy, and said: "Sister Miao, you’re so awesome. This rascal, Gangzi, is as good as gold in front of you."

Puft!

Yang Gang almost spat out a mouthful of blood: "Gu Xiaorou, who are you calling a rogue, stop slandering me!"

"Enough! I’m talking about something serious. For the baby’s surname, I’ve decided to choose from our surnames. Gu, Su, Zhang, Yang, and Xiao. I’ll write these five surnames on separate pieces of paper, then fold them up, and have Zhang Yu pick one. Whatever surname gets picked, that will be it." Zhang Miao said.

Zhang Yu was sweating profusely: "Sister, is that fair? What will Brother Haotian think?"

At that point, Xiao Haotian returned.

Zhang Miao then told him about her idea.

Zhang Yu originally thought Xiao Haotian would object, but contrary to his expectations, he agreed.

As long as the baby’s father agreed, what else could Zhang Yu say?

Zhang Miao started to prepare the papers.

She prepared five pieces of paper, wrote down the surnames, then crumbled them up into small balls and placed them in her palm: "Zhang Yu, as the baby’s uncle, it’s up to you to pick one."

Zhang Yu nodded, he looked at the five paper balls in Zhang Miao’s palm, he observed for a while then took one.

All eyes were immediately on Zhang Yu’s hand.

Zhang Yu seemed a little nervous, as long as the baby’s last name was not Yang, any other would be acceptable.

"There’s only a one in five chance of drawing the surname Yang, I don’t believe I’m that unlucky."

Taking a deep breath, he slowly unfolded the piece of paper in his hand, then his face turned a bit ugly.

Yang.

The word ’Yang’ was neatly written on the paper.

Yang Gang was somewhat dumbfounded.

Sister Miao’s baby taking his surname, this feeling was so odd!

But, he was actually quite pleased inside himself.

Seeing Yang Gang looking excited, Gu Xiaorou glared at him, but she didn’t say anything.

Xiao Haotian’s expression was indifferent, no one knew what he was thinking.
