Huayu: When the director changed his major

New York International Airport.

Cheng Xi, wearing a mask, waited nervously in the lobby.

Before long, a couple with the air of elderly professors emerged from around the corner.

These are Li Xiaoran's parents.

Cheng Xi quickly waved in greeting.

When they came out, they immediately walked forward with He Kun and took the luggage.

"Hello, Uncle and Aunt."

Cheng Xi still felt a little awkward calling them "Mom and Dad," so she could only bite the bullet and call them "Uncle and Aunt."

This also indirectly tells the two elders about their stance.

There's no way around it; you can't be vague about this. You have to do whatever you can.

As expected, Mr. Li didn't respond or say anything, his expression was slightly serious.

Aunt Li greeted Cheng Xi very kindly.

"Xiao Cheng, it's been a long time."

When I visited you two last time to wish you a Happy New Year, Li Ma was very interested in Cheng Xi and asked her a lot of questions.

Mr. Li was also very friendly.

But who could have predicted that in the blink of an eye, she would be told that this young man had gotten her daughter pregnant?

And he has no plans to get married.

Isn’t this nonsense!

This was hard for Li's father, a soldier, to accept.

Although he didn't dislike Cheng Xi, he couldn't bring himself to be friendly with her right now.

We'll talk about everything after we see our daughter.

"Old Li, Xiao Cheng came all the way here to pick you up, so don't give me that attitude!"

"Why should I give my daughter a hard time? I'll go see her first."

Cheng Xi said rather awkwardly:
"Yes, let's go see Xiao Ran first. We also have an appointment at the hospital for a check-up today."

Li Ma is also a doctor, so she asked which pharmacy the patient had been to and what the current situation was.

Cheng Xi answered the questions carefully while leading the two elders into the car.

Unexpectedly, Li's mother and Li Xiaoran burst into tears as soon as they met.

Li's father slammed his fist on the table:
"What kind of behavior is this! You two must get married! Otherwise, you can't have children!"

Before coming, Li Xiaoran had already done some psychological work with the two elderly people.

But when Mr. Li saw his daughter's slightly protruding belly, he felt both happy and worried.

The good news is that I've been urging and worrying about my daughter's marriage, and now she's already got a child.

But as an elderly father, I also felt particularly sad.

Who would want their daughter to follow someone else without any status or identity, and even have to be someone's concubine after Cheng Xi gets married?
Li Ma: "Why do you, old man, start throwing a tantrum in front of Ranran the moment you arrive? Aren't you afraid of scaring your good grandson!"

Upon hearing this, Li's father looked up, as if to say something.

But she forced herself to swallow it back.

You could tell from his expression that he was in considerable pain.

What can be done? It's a fait accompli. Even if we don't get married, it's impossible to abort the child.

Regardless of whether their bodies could handle it, the two elders valued the sudden arrival of a grandchild more than anyone else.

Li Xiaoran wiped away her tears and sobbed as she said:

"Mom and Dad, I was wrong. It's not Cheng Xi's fault. I wanted this child."

"Don't blame him!"

Cheng Xi: "Uncle, Aunt, I will definitely take good care of the child and Xiao Ran, and provide her with the best conditions. You can rest assured about that."

“I plan to buy this house in the United States, and then I will also buy a courtyard house in Beijing near my parents’ home. All of these will be registered under our child’s name.”

"In addition, I will support Xiaoran whether she wants to work in the future or not, and I will make arrangements for her."

The apartment that Li Xiaoran is currently renting is the most upscale apartment in the Central Park area.

Tens of millions are inevitable.

Buying a courtyard house back in Yanjing would cost even more.

These two houses alone will cost 100 million yuan, and that's just the bare minimum.

This is Cheng Xi's first child, so she will definitely ensure that everything is taken care of.

Seeing Cheng Xi's attitude, which was so attentive and perfect in every way, Li's father felt that she was definitely a good match for Xiao Ran.

They just can't give each other the status of husband and wife.

But in the end, they had no choice but to compromise.

"I hope you can keep your word! Otherwise, I won't let you off the hook!" I returned from the hospital check-up in the afternoon.

Everyone was happy again.

The test results showed everything was healthy.

Aside from being an older mother, some of her indicators were slightly outside the normal range.

This is normal.

There shouldn't be any problems as long as you pay a little attention.

When Cheng Xi saw the baby's appearance on the ultrasound, she was filled with many emotions.

I haven't even had children in my past life yet, and I've already returned to 2010.

Unexpectedly, she had her first child in 2015.

The emotion it evoked was indescribable.

The elderly couple and the aunt were also very excited and moved by the impending arrival of the newborn.

Of course, the person who felt the most emotional was Li Xiaoran herself.

She held Cheng Xi's hand tightly:

"Da Cheng, this is our child."

"Yes, our daughter!"

Unlike in China, the US will directly state the gender on the pregnancy test report.

It clearly says "F" above, which stands for Female.

Cheng Xi felt a little more relaxed.

It's not about favoring sons over daughters or anything like that.

He likes both boys and girls, and you could even say he prefers daughters a little more.

After all, daughters are more likely to inherit their mothers' beautiful genes.

I can imagine how adorable this child will be in the future.

And most importantly, if it's a boy, he's the eldest son.

There will be more problems later.

Looks like I'll have to be more careful from now on.

Since Li Xiaoran has this idea, others might have it too.

He didn't want to experience something like what Hua Chenyu did.

Then you'll be in a passive position.

Cheng Xi knew she couldn't hide it any longer, so she confessed the situation to her family.

My parents went from shock to disbelief, and then to thinking I was joking.

But after looking at the pregnancy test report, you have to accept it no matter how much you don't believe it.

The mother first gave Cheng Xi a good scolding, while the father was still in shock.

"You mustn't have any designs on my granddaughter; you must give birth safely."

"Of course, Mom, you don't know your son well enough."

"What are you going to do about my two daughters-in-law, Dilraba and Gulnazar?"

"Nothing else to do, just do as instructed!"

"You! You little rascal, you're going to drive me crazy!"

Cheng Xi knew that her mother really liked Dilraba and Gulnazar.

They've already considered the two of them as their future daughters-in-law.

There are even many posters of them on the walls of my house.

Unexpectedly, a third daughter-in-law arrived.

"Give me the inside scoop, there's no fourth daughter-in-law, is there?"

"Uh, Mom, there might be more!"

Mom: "You little rascal! Don't you dare come back and see you, or I'll make you regret it!"

Dad: "Forget it, the kid's all grown up, why are you worrying so much!"

Mom: "It's all your fault. You didn't discipline me properly when I was little, and look what my personality has become."

Finally, her mother even suggested coming to the United States to take care of Li Xiaoran.

However, Cheng Xi firmly opposed it.

"If she doesn't understand English, won't she just be causing trouble? She'll have to take care of you later. Don't worry, her aunt is here, and there are bodyguards too. I've arranged everything."

"Then give the phone to Xiao Ran, I... I want to talk to my third wife."

Cheng Xi glanced at Li Xiaoran not far away and, at her mother's command, handed her the phone. (End of Chapter)
