Chapter 1420: Forbidden Arts (8)
"Not familiar," Xiu Xi replied.
Indeed, not familiar; during their time in Xiahe Village, they had few interactions.
After answering, he paused, glanced at Jiaojiao, and continued, "Very much disliked."
If asked who Xiu Xi liked most in this world, it was undoubtedly Jiaojiao, and only Jiaojiao.
However, there were many he didn’t like; anyone who tried to take Jiaojiao away from him was on that list.
When he first arrived in this world, he didn’t understand and rejected anyone who approached Jiaojiao or whom Jiaojiao approached, wishing he could bite them all to death, including the members of the Ruan Family.
But as he spent more time in this world, he gradually understood that these people, even if thought of by Jiaojiao, posed no threat. Jiaojiao was still his, and they couldn’t take her away, so he slowly stopped resisting Jiaojiao being close to them.
Among these disliked individuals, there were two who Xiu Xi extremely disliked, one of whom was Jiang Xun because he saw Jiang Xun’s covetousness for Jiaojiao more than once, making Xiu Xi want to tear him apart.
Fortunately, this presence later vanished from their lives on its own.
The other person is still in their social circle, but Xiu Xi won’t give him the chance.
Thinking of this, Xiu Xi hugged Jiaojiao tightly, cast a cold glance at Duan Xin, and with the words "very much disliked," scared Duan Xin into losing all thoughts about Jiaojiao.
The Shu Family’s lunch was served timely, and the dishes were delicious. Except for Duan Qirui, who didn’t eat much due to his cleanliness obsession, Duan Qianyang and Duan Xin ate with great satisfaction.
After lunch, this visit was almost over. Before leaving, Duan Qianyang called Xiu Xi aside and asked, "Do you want to change your last name back?"
Xi represents intelligence; Duan Qianyang knew this character should have been chosen by Wen Yu, as she was knowledgeable and quiet from a young age and once said she admired intelligent people the most.
Duan Qianyang didn’t plan to change this character, but he felt a bit uncomfortable with the last name Xiu.
However, if Xiu Xi didn’t want to change his last name, he wouldn’t force it; everything would be according to his wishes.
Change the last name?
Jiaojiao playfully tugged at her little whiskers in Xiu Xi’s embrace.
Xiu Xi.
Duan Xi.
It feels pretty much the same.
Xiu Xi fell silent for a moment, then nodded after a few seconds, "Change it."
He had accepted this body, and it was time to do the last thing for the body’s original owner—to let him acknowledge his ancestors, and the Xiu Family was not really worth the previous Xiu Xi’s nostalgia.
Hearing this, Duan Qianyang was instantly overjoyed, his face relaxed with a smile, truly fearing Xiu Xi wouldn’t agree.
He thought this outcome was already quite good, but then Xiu Xi gave him another surprise: "Transfer the household registration."
This might be the greatest wish of his body’s mother—to allow her child to obtain his rightful identity.
Duan Qianyang was almost tearful upon hearing this.
Initially, he was very happy to be able to change it to Duan Xi when introducing Xiu Xi to the outside world, but didn’t expect Xiu Xi to proactively suggest transferring the household registration.
"Rest assured, Dad won’t disappoint you," Duan Qianyang said emotionally, wiping his slightly itchy eyes discreetly.
