MC Bookstore Chapter 45 has a new name again?
Chapter 45 has a new name again?
Grandpa nodded after listening.
"Lang Yazi is right."
"We really hadn't thought about this before."
Grandma nodded repeatedly; she was the one who named Liu Qianmeizi.
"Yes, yes, we can't let our children suffer at school because of their names."
Liu Xiaoli couldn't help but gasp.
"This is a mistake on our part as adults."
I initially chose this name for my daughter simply because I thought it sounded nice and stylish.
This aspect was completely overlooked.
Chen Lang walked up to Liu Xiaoli, looked at her still young and beautiful face, and smiled.
"My wife just told me that she wants to be an actress when she grows up."
"The name Liu Ximeizi doesn't sound like an actress's name."
"I think we should change her name before she registers for school."
"To be an actor?"
Liu Xiaoli glanced in the direction of the restroom and nodded silently to herself.
That's a good direction; it could be a way to take over her job.
The stage and the screen are also directions to consider.
Although she has won many awards in the past two years, the decline of the opera house has become increasingly obvious.
Performance opportunities are becoming increasingly scarce.
The problems of talent drain, financial pressure, and slow creative iteration are gradually becoming more prominent.
My daughter definitely can't follow in my footsteps.
Liu Xiaoli looked at Chen Lang with a mixture of relief and complex emotions in her eyes.
This son is meticulous and thoughtful, and sometimes he really doesn't seem like a child.
She looked at Chen Lang, wanting to hear the opinion of this little adult in her family.
"Then... what should we change it to?"
Chen Lang had already prepared a draft in his mind.
Anyway, I'll have to change my name Liu Ximeizi eventually.
Rather than letting her godfather Chen Jinfei make the changes, she might as well take the power herself first.
Why was Baoyu so harshly criticized for giving Daiyu a courtesy name in Dream of the Red Chamber?
Isn't it because in ancient times, only a woman's husband could give her a courtesy name?
Although this isn't considered important anymore, he still has to seize this opportunity.
Of course, I should choose the name of my own wife.
Chen Lang cleared his throat.
"I think we could call it..."
"Liu Yifei".
"Not so?"
Liu Xiaoli murmured it twice.
"Which is true, and which is false?"
Chen Lang explained in a very formal and methodical manner.
"Also, also, also, not, not like the ordinary not."
"Sisi is my wife, and she's someone I'll always protect."
"She is extraordinary in my heart."
The living room was quiet for a moment.
Grandma and Grandpa looked at each other and smiled.
Liu Xiaoli looked at the little boy in front of her.
Looking into his deep eyes, which didn't seem like those of a child.
Looking at his face, one could see a seriousness and determination beyond his years.
Her heart ached, yet felt warm.
The two children grew up together and were inseparable.
She, as the mother, knew better than anyone how deep their feelings were.
"Liu Yifei..."
She read the name aloud again.
"Yes, it sounds more sophisticated than Akemiko."
"I'll go to the police station tomorrow to change my name."
Grandpa muttered it a few times and nodded in agreement.
"I think it's okay."
"Extraordinary, this has a good meaning."
Grandma smiled and said she had no objection.
"Your nickname will still be Xixi, it won't make a difference."
"Use your formal name at school and your nickname at home, that's fine."
Just then, the bathroom door opened.
Liu Qianqian came out wearing pink cartoon pajamas and drying her wet hair.
"Langlang, go wash up."
She looked up and saw three people in the living room staring at her with somewhat strange expressions.
"What...are you looking at?"
Liu Xiaoli waved to her.
"Sisi, come here."
Liu Qianqian walked over and sat down next to her mother.
Liu Xiaoli picked up a towel, wrapped it around her hair, and announced with a smile as she dried it.
"Sisi, Mommy wants to tell you that you have a new name."
"Langlang named you that."
From now on, your full name will be Liu Yifei.
"what?"
Liu Qianqian was stunned.
She looked at her mother, then at her maternal grandparents.
Finally, their gaze fell upon Chen Lang.
My head is full of question marks.
"Why...did I change my name again?"
In the following days, the alarm clock was relentlessly set from 8 a.m. to 7 a.m.
Once you start elementary school, there are rules for attending elementary school.
I can no longer sleep until I naturally wake up like before.
This change was undoubtedly a huge blow to the young girl who had already changed her name to Liu Yifei.
She's always been grumpy when she wakes up.
Now, I'm even angrier.
Every morning, Chen Lang felt like he was fighting a battle.
As soon as the alarm clock rang, he got up first.
Then we had to figure out a way to wake up the guy sleeping like a pig on the lower bunk.
Simply shouting is no longer effective.
She would cover her head with a pillow and pretend she couldn't hear.
If you kick the edge of the bed, she will kick it back directly.
In the end, Chen Lang had no choice but to resort to his ultimate move.
He put the cassette tape containing the popular TikTok song into his Walkman and placed it next to her pillow.
Those melodies, like a curse, pierced her ears.
Chen Lang saw her legs shaking.
It won't take more than thirty seconds.
A frustrated groan would then come from the lower bunk.
Then a head with a head full of messy hair will suddenly pop out from inside the mosquito net.
"Lang Yazi! I'll beat you to death!"
A new day begins amidst this chaotic and playful commotion.
……
September st.
The first day of school.
Liu Xiaoli got up early and prepared a hearty breakfast for her two children.
After dinner, I took them to the room to get them dressed.
In those days, primary school students didn't have uniforms; what they wore depended entirely on their family's financial situation and their own aesthetic sense.
Liu Xiaoli picked out a light yellow floral dress for Liu Yifei.
Her hair was styled into two neat braids, tied with pink ribbons.
She was wearing a pair of red leather sandals with white lace socks.
She looks like a little princess who stepped out of a painting.
Chen Lang's attire was much simpler.
A clean white shirt and khaki shorts.
She was wearing a pair of white Warrior brand sneakers.
Her hair was cut very short, making her look energetic and neat.
The two people stood together; one was beautiful, and the other was clean.
Liu Xiaoli took her two children's hands and walked out of the house.
The school is not far from home, only about a ten-minute walk away.
Liu Xiaoli's mouth never stopped the whole way.
Her instructions were mainly directed at Liu Yifei.
"When you get to school, make sure you make friends with your classmates, okay?"
"You can't just play with your younger brother; you need to be more sociable."
"You must listen attentively to the teacher and not let your mind wander."
"You should get along well with your classmates, not bully others, and not let others bully you."
She didn't have much to say about Chen Lang.
She had complete peace of mind about her son, and only gave him one serious piece of advice.
"Langlang, keep an eye on your sister, don't let her get into a fight."
Liu Yifei pouted in dissatisfaction.
