Rebirth: Regaining Joyful Moments-Chapter 1213 - 1215: Can’t Bear to See Mom Upset

"Mm." Xiang Ting nodded affirmatively, afraid Xu Nianhua might doubt, she nestled in Xu Nianhua’s arms, calling out, "Mom."

Her intention seemed to say, I call you mom, I take my mom’s surname.

"Nianhua, this child is close to you. In my opinion, it’d be better for her to take Yicheng’s surname, to avoid future questions from the child about why she has her mom’s surname," Fang Manyin said with a smile.

It’s not that she can’t take her mom’s surname, but currently, people taking their mom’s surname are few. To prevent Tingting from being talked about at school in the future, changing to the Pei surname is best.

"Are you willing?" Xu Nianhua sought Xiang Ting’s opinion, saying, "You call me mom, then my husband is your dad, he is Pei, are you willing to have your dad’s surname, Pei?"

Xiang Ting shook her head.

"Xu Ting, that sounds pretty nice too, just Xu Ting then." Pei Yicheng’s eyes glimmered, his gaze fell on Xiang Ting’s little face, meaningful.

Xu Nianhua thought for a while and finally agreed to Xiang Ting taking her surname.

No, from now on it’s Xu Ting.

"Xu Ting, from now on Niuniu will be called Xu Ting." Xu Nianhua stroked her hair, her eyes full of love.

Night.

Xu Nianhua went to take a bath, Pei Yicheng stayed in Xu Ting’s room to watch over her. In the villa, rooms were plenty, Xu Ting’s room was temporarily arranged, the pink-themed room was right next to Su Tiantian’s.

Xu Ting sat on the ground playing with toys, while Pei Yicheng kept staring at her. Xu Ting always felt her greatest secret was exposed, she avoided his gaze, focusing on her toys.

"Xiang Ting, I know you understand what I’m saying. I ask you, how did Nianhua die before?" Pei Yicheng suddenly spoke.

Xu Ting was shocked, the doll in her hand dropped to the ground, she was too stunned to turn back, never expected Pei Yicheng would suddenly ask this.

"If you don’t tell, tomorrow I’ll send you away." Pei Yicheng spoke coldly, looking at the two-year-old girl in front of him, entirely not treating her as a two-year-old.

These days, because the little girl was too young, he had never thought to avoid discussing matters with Nianhua. Who could have imagined a two-year-old girl has the soul of a decades-old person?

"Mom wouldn’t send me away." Xu Ting urgently turned back, not pretending to only say two or three words like before. As she turned, seeing Pei Yicheng’s deep eyes, she instinctively shrank back.

"If there were a pair of parents who didn’t have a daughter, very much wanting one, do you think you couldn’t be sent away?" Pei Yicheng raised an eyebrow, his determined gaze seemed to tell Xiang Ting, as long as she didn’t tell the truth, she would be sent away.

"I, Mom..." Xu Ting took a deep breath, took a while to say, "Mom passed away due to overwork and illness, that year she was only forty."

Xu Ting slowly shared what she knew, she learned about the Xu family matters during her mom’s frequent memorials of Xu family members.

"Since you want to stay by Nianhua’s side, remember this: if you make Nianhua unhappy, I can send you away at any time." Pei Yicheng listened as Xu Nianhua finished bathing, he stood up and admonished, "Don’t let Nianhua notice."

Watching Pei Yicheng hurriedly leave, Xu Ting held the doll, blinked her eyes, murmuring, "I’d rather be unhappy myself than let Mom be unhappy."

If Xu Nianhua hadn’t existed, there wouldn’t be Xu Ting. After Mom passed, she was distracted on the way to pay respects to Mom, got in a car accident, and returned to the past, how wonderful.

Mom not only became prettier but also had so many family members who love her, even the Xu family members are here.
