AWB Chapter 791 Should the child be surnamed Zhou or Fang?
Chapter 791 Should the child be surnamed Zhou or Fang?
Lucy didn't want her sister to be mistreated in their hometown, so she and Zhou Chen brought the child to Shanghai to raise her themselves. After all, Lucy is a soft-hearted person.
Of course, Zhou Chen didn't bring the nanny to Shanghai with him, because he was always on guard against her; she wasn't a good person either.
The fact that the nanny was able to collude with Lucy's father to deceive Lucy is enough to put her on the blacklist.
In the story, after the nanny learns that Lucy has lost her job, she brings her son to cause trouble, as if she is afraid that Lucy will owe her wages. Her daughter even tries to steal Lucy's things. It can be said that the whole family is no good.
Zhou Chen didn't want such a thing to happen again, so he nipped the conflict in the bud, which saved him a lot of trouble.
The two quickly returned to Ode to Joy, and as soon as they stepped out of the elevator, their neighbors surrounded them, their purpose, of course, to see Lucy's sister.
"Lucy, your little sister is so cute! She looks so tiny. She must have been quite a handful on the way here."
Knowing that Zhou Chen and Lucy had returned to the neighborhood, Zhu Zhe and the others were already waiting at the entrance. Looking at the little one in Zhou Chen's arms, Zhu Zhe asked.
Lucy said somewhat awkwardly, "Don't even mention it. The little one is very shy around strangers. She cried the whole way, and finally, when we got to the service area, I took over driving and Zhou Chen held her before she calmed down."
Please, I'm her biological older sister! I always feel like she's closer to Zhou Chen than to me. Where can I complain?
Hearing Lucy's complaints, Zhou Chen laughed and teased, "Lucy has been nagging about this all the way. She's even jealous of little kids. Isn't that funny?"
Hehe, you know, I have a natural charm that's especially effective on the girls around me. Otherwise, how would I be able to flirt with girls?
Just like the succubus-like constitution of the Han Dynasty, how did Liu Bang and Liu Bei manage to gather a large group of civil and military officials to help them conquer the world?
I have that kind of charm too, but it's more effective on girls. Otherwise, why would you beautiful ladies be surrounding me?
The neighbors rolled their eyes when they heard Zhou Chen's words. "We're all gathered around you just to see the kids. Do you really think you're so charming?"
"Zhou Chen, you're really too narcissistic. You're making such big promises that you'll regret it later. I don't know if you have a succubus constitution, but I do know that you're shameless."
Ye Zhenzhen didn't believe Zhou Chen's words, so she retorted. The others nodded in agreement. They couldn't very well admit that they had gathered together because of his charm.
Zhou Chen was speechless. "Nobody believes me when I tell the truth. The reward I got when I was trying to win over the girl was that it could increase the opposite sex's favorability towards me when I interacted with them. In short, I'm very popular with women."
"Hmph, if you don't believe me, fine. Even though the little one in my arms is a little kid, she's still a girl. Isn't it normal for her to like being close to me?"
Lucy exuded the aura of a powerful woman, her face practically screaming "Do Not Disturb."
Children are the most sensitive. If you were in my shoes, would you want to be with me or with Lucy?
None of the women responded to Zhou Chen's question. If they said they wanted to be with Zhou Chen, it would not only be a slap in Lucy's face, but would also make Zhou Chen even more arrogant.
If saying you want to be with Lucy sounds a bit like a lesbian relationship, it's better not to respond at this point.
Even Lucy was speechless. Did you really need to step on me to show off your charm?
"You're the most charming person on the entire 22nd floor. Whether it's an eighty-year-old lady or a newborn baby girl, they all fall in love with you at first sight. Is that enough?"
Lucy's words were somewhat sarcastic, and Zhou Chen looked at her and replied, "You're just jealous, jealous that your sister likes me more."
This left Lucy feeling somewhat helpless. Although Zhou Chen was a bit arrogant, what he said was true. It was clearly the first time they had ever held a baby, so why did the little girl prefer to stay in Zhou Chen's arms?
If you say she lost to the nanny, that's understandable, since the nanny took care of the child for a period of time. But losing to Zhou Chen made Lucy particularly unhappy. Aren't women supposed to have maternal radiance?
Is it really because of my work that I have this scary aura about me now?
Lucy's little head immediately started to wander into all sorts of thoughts. Not wanting to make things more awkward, Yu Chuhui changed the subject, saying, "I really don't understand the point of you arguing about this. I still prefer children. By the way, what's the little one's name?"
Upon hearing this, Lucy immediately turned into a sister-bragging maniac, introducing her sister to everyone.
"Her name is Mianmian. She was so soft when she was born that I didn't dare to hold her, afraid that I would squeeze her like cotton. Because of the C-section, she is a little weak, but I believe she will grow up quickly."
At this moment, Zhou Chen also quickly expressed his opinion, and even put forward a rather absurd suggestion.
“I also like this child quite a bit. She and I have a strong connection. Since her father doesn’t care about her and her mother has passed away, and there’s a saying that an elder sister is like a mother, shouldn’t I be considered her father?”
Lucy, for the sake of the baby's healthy growth, I suggest that we raise her as our daughter instead of her sister. In six months, she can keep the little one in your belly company.
From now on, you'll be her mother, and I'll be her father. As for whether the child will take your surname, Fang, and be called Fang Mianmian, or take my surname, Zhou, and be called Zhou Mianmian, that's fine too.
Haha, I believe that apart from your father, nobody cares what the child's surname is. As for that father who doesn't care about the child, what right does he have to be a father?
Zhou Chen's words stunned everyone present. They never expected Zhou Chen to say such a thing. He actually wanted to raise a little girl who was not related to them by blood as his own daughter.
Is Zhou Chen too foolish or too kind-hearted? He actually wants to give a girl with no blood relation to him the surname Zhou and treat her like his own daughter. This is indeed beyond everyone's expectations.
This also shows Zhou Chen's affection for Lucy. After all, this girl is Lucy's sister. In order to prevent the little girl from being looked down upon when she grows up, Zhou Chen chose to raise her as his own daughter and let her grow up happily in a normal family. This is indeed a good idea.
Imagine when your child goes to school and finds out that her father doesn't want her, her mother died giving birth to her, and she's lived with her sister who is thirty years younger than her since she was little. Is that really a good environment?
Haha, wouldn't it be better to let the child grow up with so-called "father and mother"? Which one is happier for the child?
The women were all intelligent, so they naturally thought of this as well. They admired Zhou Chen for his thoughtfulness in considering even these things.
In their eyes, this was a sign of Zhou Chen's kindness and sense of responsibility. Even Ye Zhenzhen, who usually disliked Zhou Chen, felt that she had to look at him in a new light. She never expected that this playboy would have such a side.
As for Lucy, she fell silent. Zhou Chen's suggestion was too sudden, and besides, her father was still alive. She couldn't make this decision on her own.
Haha, Zhou Chen has won over another wave of people. His reputation as a playboy was already a stain on his character, and he even dated two girlfriends, Lucy and Yu Chuhui. If he were an irresponsible person, he would be a real scumbag.
Zhou Chen wanted to prove that even someone who wasn't related to him by blood could be treated seriously, so if Yu Chuhui and Lucy had children in the future, Zhou Chen wouldn't abandon them either. Zhou Chen wanted to show that he was a responsible person.
Of course, there is another reason, which is that this child is, after all, Lucy's sister, that is, Zhou Chen's future sister-in-law, and Lucy cannot possibly abandon her.
Since he was going to raise a child anyway, Zhou Chen preferred to raise his future sister-in-law as his own daughter rather than as his own. He preferred her to call him "Dad" rather than "brother-in-law," since they would be closer, wouldn't they?
Of course, Zhou Chen had no idea about having twin sisters or sister-in-law, because it was too beastly. After all, they were sisters he had watched grow up, how could Zhou Chen bring himself to do that?
