My Inner Thought is Exposed! The Villain Family Defy Their Fate!-Chapter 336 - 140: What’s Our Little Sister’s Name
"As long as my lady is happy, I will follow your lead."
Well, at the end of the day, it’s just a child. As long as it’s not Lady Yun’s illegitimate child, he can accept it.
"Alright, it’s settled then."
Lady Yun immediately smiled warmly, looking at the little one in her arms. She gently said, "Xiao Rui, quickly call him father."
With a thud, the little one obediently kneeled in front of Yun Zheng and kowtowed heavily.
"Father."
Looking at the little one before him, Yun Zheng did not immediately let him stand but instead began to lay down some rules for him in a deep voice.
"By calling me father, you are now my son, Yun Zheng’s son. But being my son isn’t that easy. There are some things that need to be said now, and you must listen well."
Upon hearing this, a trace of hesitation appeared in Lady Yun’s eyes. She moved her lips, intending to interrupt.
She knew her husband wanted to set rules, but there was no rush for that now. Xiao Rui had just joined the family, and the rules could be set later.
But in the end, she simply sighed and swallowed the words that reached her lips.
Adopting a child is no small matter. She had already secretly made such a big decision without her husband’s consent, so she couldn’t go against him further now.
"Yes, this child will surely listen attentively."
At this moment, the little one’s voice came through, and he was more sensible than she had imagined.
His small, thin body kneeled on the ground, his back straight as an arrow. His little face was serious, making him appear extremely earnest.
Yun Zheng was quite pleased with his attitude. He picked up the tea on the table, sipped it lightly, covered it with the lid, and placed it back on the table. His sharp eyes looked at the little one.
"Hmm, the Yun Family will put effort into nurturing every child, and that includes you. I don’t expect you to repay the Yun Family when you grow up, but there are several things you must remember;"
"First, do not use the Yun Family’s influence to act unscrupulously or bully others; second, under no circumstances should you do anything that violates the Yun Family’s rules; third, the Yun Family doesn’t ask for your repayment, but you must not betray or harm the Yun Family; fourth...".
"For now, that’s it. Have you remembered them all?"
After listing over a dozen prohibitions, Yun Zheng leaned back into his chair, observing the little one’s expression casually.
The little one nodded heavily and seriously said, "I have remembered everything."
"Really?"
Yun Zheng’s eyes subtly changed, a hint of doubt in his expression.
He had said so many things, and even adults might not necessarily remember them all. It was questionable whether the little one in front of him could even understand, let alone remember.
He initially mentioned those things just to follow a formality, not expecting the little one to truly understand or remember.
But now, was this little one deceiving him, or had he really remembered?
"Hmm."
The little one continued to nod, and Yun Zheng instantly became more attentive.
"Since you’ve remembered, repeat those points I just mentioned."
"Yes."
The little one, with a tensed jawline and serious expression, repeated those rules. His voice, though filled with childlike innocence, was steady and unhurried, giving off an air of ease.
When the last word fell, everyone except Yun Wanqing was in shock.
Of course, Yun Wanqing was also shocked, just not as much as the others. She bit her finger, full of admiration.
[Oh my, this little one is amazing, really repeating every word without missing anything.]
[Just four or five years old, yet able to remember all this from one hearing. Incredible!]
[With such a memory, if he were in the 21st century, he’d be a surefire academic prodigy, easily acing prestigious universities like Tsinghua or Peking University.]
[It seems becoming a significant person requires not only physical endurance and resilience but also other impressive skills.]
[His fate, remarkably distinguished, might be closely linked to this exceptional memory.]
[...]
Yun Zheng: "????"
A fate remarkably distinguished?
Why did this sound so familiar?
Could it be that this little one is the one Xiao Si previously mentioned in her innermost thoughts as being bullied? 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
No wonder Ye’er inexplicably brought a child back. If that’s the case, then it’s no surprise.
Currently, everyone in the family treats Xiao Si’s inner voice with the utmost reverence. As long as she mentions someone or something, it must be given due consideration.
Yun Zheng, slow to catch on, finally understood.
Suppressing the shock in his heart, he nodded and looked at the little one with admiration, saying, "Very good, it seems you really have remembered."
The ’setting rules’ session finally concluded without any incident.
Lady Yun let out a slight sigh of relief, smiled, and said, "By the way, dear, since we’ve adopted Xiao Rui, we should give him a new name. This matter requires your effort."
She had asked Xiao Rui. The little one didn’t know his own surname, not even a full name, which was unacceptable.
A child of the Yun Family can’t be without a proper name!
How could he be introduced to others in the future?
Upon hearing this, Yun Zheng furrowed his brows and fell silent. After thinking for a moment, he looked at the little one.
"In the Yun Family, this generation uses the character ’Wan.’ Your eldest brother is Yun Wanchen, your second brother is Yun Wanye, and your sister is Yun Wanyao..."
"I have decided to keep your current name, and you can be called Yun Wanrui. Of course, if you don’t like it, you may simply be called Yun Rui; the choice is yours."
For an adopted son, although he is treated as their own, it is different from a biological child.
This child seemed very clever, likely to have his own ideas. As a foster father, he shouldn’t make decisions for him.
"Father, I will be called Yun Rui. Thank you, Father, for granting me the name."
After making his choice, the little one pressed his forehead against the cold ground, bowed his head once more.
He knew he was only an adopted son, unlike his brothers and sisters.
The slight difference in the name would always remind him of his identity, preventing him from developing inappropriate thoughts in the future.
Regarding his choice, the Yun Family couple had no strong opinions. Whatever the name, he would always be a part of their family.
Afterward, Yun Rui greeted each brother and sister and even served tea to the parents, not leaving out even Yun Wanqing.
He eagerly looked at the little bundle in Yun Wanye’s arms, full of anticipation, and said, "May I see my sister?"
"Alright, I’ll let you see her."
Yun Wanye smiled and kindly bent over, bringing Yun Wanqing to the same level as Yun Rui.
This little one had been brought back and adopted because of his little sister. Indeed, he should meet his benefactor.
[Oh my, although I’m much older than you, according to the current situation, I’ll have to call you brother in the future.]
[I can’t accept this. Eldest Brother and Second Brother are understandable, but to call such a tiny little bun ’brother’ is too much.]
Everyone: "..."
"Second Brother, what’s my sister’s name?"
