Chapter 166: Chapter 166 Deciding on a Na
Huo Shiyuan stood up quickly upon hearing the news and said to Yuan Xi beside him, “I’ll go with my parents to take a look. Rember, you must absolutely not leave the house.”
Yuan Xi nodded and replied, “Okay.”
Huo Shiyuan was still sowhat worried about Yuan Xi. When she was young and sick, taking dicine, she knew that crab and shrimp could trigger her condition, but she still wouldn’t abstain. Yuan Xi had never been one to take great care of her health, and Huo Shiyuan feared that without his watchful eye, she might venture out.
“Grandma, please help keep an eye on Yuan Xi, and don’t let her leave the house.”
With a resigned smile, Yuan Xi said, “I’m not a little kid like Huohuo and Xiao Ying anymore. I won’t go outside to catch a chill. After all, I don’t want to have a headache later.”
Only then did Huo Shiyuan feel assured. He called Shi Zhen and Huo Ting to join him on his way to the neighboring Fu Mansion.
Gu Hanchen drew closer to Yuan Xi and whispered, “Was that woman just now Qian Yiren? She seems interested in your husband. Didn’t you notice? How could you let Huo Shiyuan follow her?”
Yuan Xi responded, “I noticed.”
Gu Hanchen pressed, “And you’re just going to tolerate it?”
Yuan Xi explained, “If she likes Huo Shiyuan, there’s not much I can do to make her stop liking him. I trust that Huo Shiyuan won’t do anything inappropriate. Moreover, Huo Shiyuan also brought his parents along.”
Yuan Xi wasn’t one to trouble herself over who liked Huo Shiyuan. Her regular work was busy enough, and now that she had two children to look after, she was even busier.
If she were to be concerned about the won who liked Huo Shiyuan, she’d spend all day being jealous. She trusted in Huo Shiyuan’s character.

Fu Mansion.
In Fu Yixian’s room, both Fu Qin and Ren Tian were present.
When Huo Shiyuan entered, what he saw was Fu Yixian, who had opened his eyes. Fu Yixian, with a tracheal tube inserted, couldn’t speak, but his fingers moved slightly when he saw Huo Shiyuan.
“Shiyan, Ms. Shi, Uncle Huo,” Fu Qin stood up, his eyes brimming with emotional tears, “My brother woke up; he has finally awakened!”
“Almost a whole year has passed, and my brother has finally awoken.”
Huo Shiyuan approached Fu Yixian, “Yixian.”
Fu Yixian blinked his eyes to show that he could hear.
Huo Shiyuan turned to Fu Qin and asked, “What did the doctors say?”
“The doctors say it’s a miracle that the patient has awakened, but he still needs to recover slowly.”
Shi Zhen added, “It’s good that he could wake up. After all, he has suffered so much. Now that he is awake, it’s already very fortunate. Yixian’s child won’t have to grow up without a father.”
Upon hearing Shi Zhen’s words, Fu Yixian furrowed his brows, and confusion flickered in his eyes.
Fu Qin inquired, “Brother, didn’t you know about your child? I thought you could hear what was happening outside while you were comatose. This is your wife.”
Fu Qin pulled Ren Tian over, “She’s over four months pregnant now.”
Fu Yixian’s head could move slightly as well. He turned to look at Ren Tian beside him, his brows drawing even tighter.
Ren Tian covered her abdon with her hand. She had always seen Fu Yixian lying with his eyes tightly shut. This was the first ti she had encountered his daunting gaze.
Ren Tian took two steps back, hiding behind Fu Qin.
Huo Shiyuan said to Fu Yixian, “You need to rest well now. The most important thing is to recover your health. I’m waiting for you to co and attend my child’s full-moon celebration.”
Fu Yixian’s gaze shifted, obviously surprised that during the ti he had been unconscious, his best friend now had a child.
Fu Qin said to Fu Yixian, “That’s right, brother, you rest up. Once you get better, you can attend Shiyan’s child’s full-moon celebration.”
Fu Yixian waking up was considered the best news for many people during the New Year period.
When Huo Shiyuan returned from the Fu Mansion and told Yuan Xi about this, she was genuinely happy for both Huo Shiyuan and Fu Qin.
After lunch, the Huo family mbers sat around a large round table, starting to choose nas for the two babies, believing that many hands make light work and that they would surely co up with nas for the two babies with everyone’s input.
Yuan Xi also knew that the nas for the two babies definitely couldn’t be delayed any longer, as the nas were needed for the invitations to the full-moon celebration.
The full-moon celebration was set for the Lantern Festival, and today was New Year’s Eve, so the invitations would have to be sent out gradually.
Although it is said that many hands make light work, with everyone giving different suggestions, no na seed to fit.
Xiao Shihuo was making a fuss on the side, wanting to na them Sailuo and Bao Li, “You can’t give the babies any other nas; all other nas sound bad. Sailuo and Bao Li are the nicest, especially the cute baby girl nad Bao Li!”
Xiao Shihuo, tugging on Shi Zhen’s hand, asked, “Mommy, can we please na the little baby Bao Li?”
Huo Shiyuan said, “No.”
Huo Ting comnted from the side, “Only you all are so picky about nas. Learn from what I did back then; choosing nas was quick. Shiyan is a continuation of both the Huo family and the Shi family, so he was directly nad Huo Shiyuan. Little Huohuo was nad because we were all too lazy to co up with one and just combined the surnas, and it turned out quite nice, didn’t it?”
Huo Shiyuan frowned and said, “It’s different for Lele and Anan. Lele and Anan were eagerly anticipated by Yuan Xi and ; I was not, so the nas for Lele and Anan cannot be chosen carelessly.”
Shi Zhen hurried to explain, “It’s not like that either. When you were born, you were also the hope of the whole family.”
Mr. Huo spoke up, “Let’s do it this way, everyone writes down two nas they think are the best, and let the children themselves pick one.”
Yuan Xi didn’t participate in choosing the nas because she really didn’t have any good ideas. If she could have thought of any, she would have picked them long ago.
After everyone had written down their nas, Lele and Anan were brought over and each grabbed a na.
The na Lele grabbed was Ruolin, chosen by Grandma Shi; Lin being precious jade, so Ruolin, Ruolin, symbolized that Lele was the most precious treasure of both the Shi family and the Huo family.
The character ‘Ruo’ also signified the place where Lele’s parents t, by the side of Ruohu.
Anan’s final na was Huo Chen. Yuan Xi unfolded the paper and recognized that it was Gu Hanchen’s handwriting. She chuckled and asked, “You’ve given my son the sa na as yours; do you want to be my son too?”
Gu Hanchen replied, “I just thought since you’re Yuan Xi, and ‘Xi’ light is in the morning, it would also be nice for your son to be nad Huo Chen.”
Huo Shiyuan, hearing Gu Hanchen’s explanation, also felt it was quite good, “It is pretty nice.”
Yuan Xi wasn’t completely satisfied with Anan’s na, mainly because it was too similar to Gu Hanchen’s, but indeed since her na contained ‘Xi,’ it was fitting for the baby to be nad Chen.
Yuan Xi looked at Lele and Anan in front of her with a light chuckle, “From now on, you are Ruolin and Chenchen.”
Huo Shiyuan said, “Let’s call the child Chuchen, Huo Chuchen.”
Yuan Xi was slightly stunned, “Why add the character ‘Chu’?”
Huo Shiyuan said, “I know the regret of your lifeti.”
Yuan Xi had a special feeling for the Chu family; she definitely wouldn’t be changing her surna back to Chu in this lifeti, as it would be too much of a hassle.
Therefore, adding a character to her son’s na that was homophonic with ‘Chu’ could be seen as a form of compensation.
Yuan Xi smiled at Huo Shiyuan and, lifting Anan into her arms, said, “Then from now on, you’ll be Chuchen.”
