The Rebirth of the Fierce Little Cute Girl

Chapter 164: Chapter 164: Clues

Upon hearing Song Xiaoqing’s words, Ding Yuejun said nothing more.

Gu Tingyu also agreed with Song Xiaoqing’s opinion, ”Aunt Song is right, we should indeed let everyone meet Yiyi, so that they all know about this.”

Seeing Gu Tingyu say so, Yiyi also nodded, having no objections.

After everything was settled, Song Xiaoqing finally felt relieved, and pulled Yiyi and her mother aside for a good chat, leaving Gu Tingyu somewhat speechless on the side. In the end, she even dismissed him, ”Tingyu, go chat with your Uncle Song, the three of us have a lot to talk about.”

Gu Tingyu found this both funny and exasperating and ended up leaving the room.

Seeing Song Xiaoqing and her mother chatting happily, Yiyi was also at ease. Initially, she was worried that the two would not get along, so she hadn’t considered acknowledging godparents. Everything was based on her mother’s decisions. Now this arrangement seems fine, as peaceful relationships are the most important.

They talked until it was nearly noon before pausing the conversation and heading to the dining room for a meal.

Song Chi and Gu Tingyu were already there. When they saw Yiyi and the others coming over, they couldn’t help but joke, ”Finally finished talking? Any longer and I would have had to send someone to call you.”

”Yuejun and I really hit it off, so much that we lost track of time. It’s my fault, almost delayed the meal. Let’s start eating now.” Song Xiaoqing warmly invited everyone to sit, eagerly urging Ding Yuejun and Yiyi to try the dishes.

Everyone enjoyed the meal thoroughly, and when it was time for Ding Yuejun and Yiyi to leave, Song Xiaoqing was a bit reluctant.

”Alright, going forward Yiyi is also our daughter. You’ll have plenty of opportunities to see her.”

Song Xiaoqing couldn’t help but sigh, ”But Yiyi and her mother still have to go back.”

”Don’t worry, I asked Tingyu, and he said Yiyi wants to attend university in Shangjing. By then, you can see her every day.”

This news made Song Xiaoqing happy again.

”That’s wonderful, I’ll start preparing a room for Yiyi and Yuejun tomorrow, so they have a place to stay when they visit.”

Seeing his wife so happy, Song Chi couldn’t help but smile too, though there was still a hint of melancholy in his eyes, ”Xiaoqing, I’m sorry.”

Hearing this, Song Xiaoqing glanced at him and said, ”Old Song, what kind of talk is that.”

”If it weren’t for me, you wouldn’t have been without your own child.” Back when he got heavily injured on a mission, it left him unable to have children, yet Song Xiaoqing never left his side. People gossiped, saying she was a hen that didn’t lay eggs.

But even then, Song Xiaoqing never defended herself. When he wanted to clear things up, she stopped him. She preferred to carry the label of being infertile rather than letting him face the gossip.

Eventually, even his mother was persuaded by others to encourage him to find another wife, at which point he couldn’t bear it anymore and revealed the truth.

Seeing the guilt in Song Chi’s eyes, Song Xiaoqing couldn’t help but hold his hand and say, ”Old Song, what does it matter if we don’t have our own child? We have each other, and that’s enough. Besides, we now have our daughter, Yiyi is our daughter from now on.”

”You’re right, we have a daughter.”

Seeing relief finally appearing in her husband’s eyes, Song Xiaoqing had a more genuine smile on her face.

Meanwhile, after sending Yiyi and her mother back to the Chu family, Gu Tingyu also went in to sit for a while.

Jiang Yizi saw the three returning and quickly asked, ”How did it go? What’s the word on Yiyi’s acknowledgment?”

”Everything has been agreed upon. The Song family will choose a good day, host two tables, and have an acknowledgment banquet.”

Upon hearing this from Ding Yuejun, Jiang Yizi’s eyes lit up, ”Really? The Song family will host a banquet? That’s wonderful; it shows they sincerely want to acknowledge Yiyi.”

”Yes, I also saw that they were very sincere, so I did not oppose Yiyi recognizing godparents.”

”Yuejun, you definitely shouldn’t oppose this. The Song family is good people, and Yiyi being their goddaughter is really fortunate.”

This comment wasn’t exactly to Ding Yuejun’s liking.

”Even if Yiyi doesn’t acknowledge the Song family as godparents, is she not fortunate? Besides, if the Song family isn’t sincere, there’s no need for us to pursue this recognition.”

Realizing she was a bit overexcited, Jiang Yizi hurriedly said, ”Yes, yes, our Yiyi is so great, it’s of course important to see the Song family’s attitude. Now that they’re sincere, it’s the best; if they weren’t sincere, there’d be no need to attach ourselves to them.”

Hearing Jiang Yizi’s words, Ding Yuejun’s mood finally improved a bit.

Yiyi naturally saw that the Chu family was quite eager for her to form ties with the Song family.

But from the Chu family’s perspective, she understood them. After all, now that Song Chi’s status had reached such heights, there were certainly those who wished to curry favour. Luckily, the Chu family wasn’t overly eager, just that Jiang Yizi was a bit more enthusiastic.

”Auntie, when the banquet is held, you should also come along.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yizi was thrilled, ”Really, Yiyi? Can we join too?”

”Of course, you’re my aunt and my family; why wouldn’t you be able to come.”

Hearing Yiyi’s words, Jiang Yizi felt a warm sense of contentment and grew even closer to Yiyi and her mother, ”Alright, we’ll all go together then.”

But towards the end, she hesitated, ”Or... perhaps we shouldn’t go, to avoid giving the Song family room for misunderstanding.”

Realizing her concerns, Yiyi understood her mother’s feelings better. Even though Jiang Yizi was delighted and wanted her to be acknowledged by the Song family, when it came to involving herself, she was still considerate, showing that the Chu family truly cared for them.

Thinking of this, Yiyi’s smile grew warmer.

”No worries, I’ll talk it over with Mrs. Song.”

From the side, Gu Tingyu added, ”It’ll be more lively if everyone goes together.”

With Gu Tingyu’s support, Jiang Yizi felt relieved, ”Alright, we’ll go and join in the fun.”

”What fun are you all planning?”

Mr. Chu, entering with a smile, caught the conversation.

Seeing her father-in-law, Jiang Yizi quickly explained the situation.

After hearing this, Mr. Chu Zhang was also pleased, ”That’s wonderful; we’ll all attend and share the excitement.”

Song Xiaoqing acted quickly, selecting a good day. The event was scheduled for two days later, and she even sent invitations to Ding Yuejun and Yiyi, as well as the Chu family.

Upon receiving the invitation, Jiang Yizi felt more at ease, realizing that the Song family was aware of the Chu family.

During these two days, the matter of Ding Yuejun’s kidnapping finally saw progress.

”Uncle, have all those people been captured?”

Mr. Chu Zhang nodded, ”Yes, everyone involved in the kidnapping was apprehended at the time.”
