"dad!"
Luca called out Huang Xiaochuan's name in his sleep.
Huang Xiaochuan put down the documents in his hand and gently patted his back: "Dad's here."
It was midday, the sun was blazing, but the breeze under the big trees by the lake was gentle and shady. Huang Xiaochuan and Zhang Yun were having a picnic on the grass under the trees with their two children. After the picnic, Luca fell asleep in Huang Xiaochuan's arms in no time.
In order to help Luca get out of the shadow of being kidnapped as soon as possible, Huang Xiaochuan fulfilled his responsibilities as a father.
With Huang Xiaochuan's reassurance, Luca quickly calmed down and fell back asleep.
Yawen was busy chasing a butterfly, and Zhang Yun was watching over him not far away. Every now and then, Zhang Yun would glance at Huang Xiaochuan. She had seen the whole scene just now, and a sense of happiness welled up in her heart.
"If only things could stay like this forever," Zhang Yun thought to herself.
However, she knew that this was just wishful thinking on her part. During her time at the manor, although she had given Huang Xiaochuan countless hints, he had always kept a certain distance from her, even in front of the two children. The only difference was that he would smile.
After a period of psychological counseling, and with the support of his parents and brother, Luca's mental state has recovered well. Seeing that Luca's emotions have stabilized, Huang Xiaochuan also plans to return to China.
But how should I tell Yu Xiang about these two children?
Huang Xiaochuan had been thinking about this problem for a long time, but he couldn't come up with any reliable solution. With Yu Xiang's advanced studies coming to an end and her return to China, Huang Xiaochuan was really worried to death.
That night, after both children had fallen asleep, Huang Xiaochuan knocked on Zhang Yun's door.
The door opened quickly, and Zhang Yun, dressed in her pajamas, was pleasantly surprised to see Huang Xiaochuan standing outside. She immediately stepped aside, gesturing for Huang Xiaochuan to come in.
Huang Xiaochuan merely glanced at her and said, "I want to talk to you. I'll go to the study and wait for you. Change your clothes before you come back."
After saying that, he walked towards the study on his own, completely ignoring whether Zhang Yun agreed or not.
Zhang Yun watched Huang Xiaochuan's retreating figure, biting her lip slightly, feeling somewhat annoyed.
However, she still changed her clothes as Huang Xiaochuan asked.
Zhang Yun, who had changed into her home clothes, came to the study. Huang Xiaochuan was standing by the window looking at the quiet manor. Hearing the noise behind him, he knew that Zhang Yun had come, so he turned around.
"Please sit down!"
After Zhang Yun sat down, Huang Xiaochuan asked, "Yawen and Luca are just English names, right?"
"Yes!"
"What are their Chinese names? I've never heard you mention them before?"
Zhang Yun looked at Huang Xiaochuan: "Ya Wen's name is Huang Wentian, and Luca's name is Zhang Yang. Your name is written in the father's column on their birth certificates."
Upon hearing this, Huang Xiaochuan was slightly taken aback.
After a moment's hesitation, he said, "I want to talk to you about the children. I've thought about it for a long time, and I feel that dwelling on the past is pointless. So, I've been considering the future arrangements for the two children. Since you are their mother and guardian, there are some things I need to discuss with you beforehand."
Zhang Yun didn't speak, but she nodded.
After observing Zhang Yun's expression, Huang Xiaochuan continued, "I will arrange a trust for each of the two children, and I will also prepare an estate for them in the future."
Seeing that Zhang Yun was about to interrupt him, Huang Xiaochuan immediately stopped her: "Let me finish what I have to say first."
"I know you want to say no, but that's a different matter. After all, I'm the father of these two children, and I still have to take responsibility. However, I need to change Yawen's surname."
When Zhang Yun heard that Huang Xiaochuan wanted to change Ya Wen's surname, she was puzzled. Did he not want Ya Wen to take his surname, Huang?
Seeing Zhang Yun's puzzled expression, Huang Xiaochuan didn't beat around the bush and directly stated his thoughts.
"I plan to have Yawen change his surname to Zeng, but keep his given name Wentian, Zeng Wentian."
Zhang Yun was even more confused now. She originally thought that Huang Xiaochuan wanted the child to take her surname instead of Huang, but she never expected that he would want the child to take Zeng's surname? What was going on?
During this period, Huang Xiaochuan thought a lot about the two children, and the fact that Ya Wen was surnamed Zeng was one of them.
Huang Xiaochuan, who has lived two lifetimes, has always regretted not having adopted him into their family. Although they never mention it, he knows about it. However, he can't make the decision on this matter himself. After all, he can't just take his household registration book to the police station and ask to change his surname.
If you really do that, I guarantee you'll make Old Huang so angry he'll end up in the hospital.
Yawen will not participate in the future distribution of her uncle and aunt's inheritance. This way, her eldest and second eldest sisters will not object to the matter. Besides, with her biological father around, Yawen naturally doesn't need to worry about those things.
Huang Xiaochuan told Zhang Yun why he wanted Yawen to have the surname Zeng.
He then promised Zhang Yun, "No matter what surnames Yawen and Luca have, they are still your sons. I will not take them away from you. It's just that Yawen will have to stay with his grandparents for a while every year. I have no other requirements."
Zhang Yun never expected this reason, but it was acceptable to her. Originally, these two children were hers and Huang Xiaochuan's, so Huang Xiaochuan's arrangement as a father was naturally acceptable. Besides, he did not deny the two children's existence; on the contrary, he was willing to take on the responsibility of being a father, which made Zhang Yun very gratified.
"I have no objection to you changing Yawen's surname to Zeng, but I will make my own arrangements for Yawen and Luca. As I said, they will not participate in the distribution of your future assets."
Huang Xiaochuan glanced at Zhang Yun: "That's your one-sided idea. I don't object to what you want to do, but please respect my decision. We don't need to get entangled in this matter."
Zhang Yun glanced at Huang Xiaochuan silently, then gave up on her idea.
Seeing that Zhang Yun did not object to his suggestion, Huang Xiaochuan said, "Luca's emotions have stabilized now, and I should go back to China. I plan to leave this Friday. After I get back and arrange things, you can take Yawen and Luca back to meet my uncle and aunt, and of course, my parents as well."
Although Zhang Yun knew that Huang Xiaochuan would leave sooner or later, she didn't expect it to be so soon, and she felt a little reluctant to part with him.
"Couldn't you stay a few more days to spend time with your son?"
Huang Xiaochuan could guess the woman's general thoughts. Although he was also reluctant to part with his two sons, he still had to go back and find a solution.
"Wait for my call. When you do, take the two kids back to China and register their household registration. As for where they want to set their nationality in the future, they can decide for themselves after they come of age."
Seeing that Huang Xiaochuan had made up his mind, Zhang Yun knew that there was no point in saying anything more, so she stopped talking.
