Li Peifeng smoothly stepped through the door and didn’t bother asking Old Zhao why he was in a mood again. He was already used to the fluctuating emotions of a pregnant woman, and even if she wasn’t actually upset, playing some tricks on him was also quite normal. Enjoying the blessing of multiple wives, taking a bit of grumpiness wasn’t a big deal.

He wasn’t planning to pursue the matter, but Zhao Qingge was displeased that changing the door code hadn’t kept him out. She frowned and put down her book, "Did I let you in?"

Li Peifeng blinked, "Then should I stand at the door for a while?"

"Let me ask you, is this your house or mine?"

"Of course, it’s our house."

Zhao Qingge pointed upstairs, "Isn’t it her house?"

"No...no, absolutely not."

Zhao Qingge seemed to sneer, "Then why does she know the door code to our house? You just left, and she quietly came in with the kid. I thought there was a burglar in the house."

Li Peifeng explained, "Wenyue and Manning went out to work, Tianxuan was bored at home by herself, so she wanted to come over and have a look. But you didn’t open the door when she rang the bell, so I gave her the code...Alright, I made a mistake, I’ll try to have her come less often in the future."

Even if Huang Tianxuan doesn’t come, he could go next door to take care of it. If this concession could appease Zhao Qingge, Li Peifeng hesitated not a bit.

"But I think you could totally chat more with Tianxuan. After all, she just had a baby. Not only does she have experience, but she’s also learned a lot of professional knowledge from obstetrics and gynecology experts..."

Zhao Qingge put down the book, noncommittally, "No matter how much she knows, does she know more than the author of this book?"

The book’s title was Heidi’s Pregnancy Encyclopedia, the world’s best-selling book about pregnancy and childbirth, with over twenty million copies sold...

"There’s no need to argue." Li Peifeng sighed, "And if you hadn’t shown interest in seeing Zhiyi while we were bonding last night, she wouldn’t have come over early with the kid. People came to the door, and you wouldn’t even open it, doing this whole show of ’Lord Ye loves dragons’..."

Zhao Qingge raised her eyebrows fiercely, "What is your attitude? If you have nothing to do, go review some student papers for me. Don’t just stand there nagging!"

"Alright, alright, papers need to be reviewed...but I’ll cook first!"

Old Zhao’s patience broke, and Li Peifeng kept his mouth shut.

Reconciling the Zhao and Huang families and having them live under one roof like Wu and Xu was still very challenging. Li Peifeng hadn’t even thought about achieving that in the future. He was just hoping that during the October wedding, Zhao Qingge could turn a blind eye and not interfere.

Huang Tianxuan also had this consideration, so even if she was refused entry this morning, and Zhao Qingge ignored her after she entered the house, she still tried to send out feelers during lunch.

"I feel like my body is almost recovered these past couple of days. Tomorrow, I want to go report at school and talk to a lawyer in the afternoon about the national patent application for ’Strengthening Pills’. Gradually returning to work will definitely make me busier...so Xiaofeng, you’ll have to take care of your son during the day from now on. Don’t think it’ll be as easy as before."

Huang Tianxuan appeared to be speaking to Li Peifeng, but her gaze was fixed on Zhao Qingge.

Because leaving Zhiyi with Li Peifeng actually meant leaving him with the two of them. Li Peifeng agreed wholeheartedly, while Zhao Qingge chose to remain silent.

If it was just the baby, that would be fine, but as for the baby’s mother...just looking at her was annoying!

"Sure, no problem." Li Peifeng held the sleeping Huang Zhiyi in his left arm, effortlessly eating with chopsticks in his right, and laughed, "This little rascal is very well-behaved. You just focus on your work...oh and, remember to store some breast milk in the fridge every day. You can’t let his feed be cut off while you’re at work."

Huang Tianxuan chuckled, "I’ve stored two more bags today, don’t worry. I have more than enough for him to drink, even have excess. If any kids around us run short, I can share some."

Zhao Qingge’s lips twitched, her gaze swept over Huang Tianxuan’s chest. She wanted to say it’s unnecessary, but felt a bit guilty...in case there was an urgent need in the future, what if she needed her milk?

"Old Zhao, don’t be shy. If you need it in the future, just say so."

Huang Tianxuan simply and frankly made a friendly offer, "When your baby is born, Zhiyi definitely won’t be weaned yet. I can give milk from both sides, no problem at all."

Zhao Qingge hesitated for a long time, only responding with an "Oh," then turned to look at the chubby little face of the sleeping Huang Zhiyi and sighed lightly, meaninglessly.

Huang Tianxuan laughed, "I’m increasingly thinking Zhiyi is a really good name. It has a good meaning, and the ’Zhi’ in Zhiyi also sounds like ’Zhi’ in ’Cure’ from a homophonic perspective. Old Zhao, did you consider this layer when you came up with the name?"

If I said I hadn’t thought that much at the time, it would make me seem a little silly.

Zhao Qingge nodded slightly, then asked, "Is your dad planning to let you take over the company?"

"He’s considering training me, but it depends on my subsequent performance. Specifically, it depends on the profitability of the ’Strengthening Pills’ project."

"Hmm, that’s good."

After a moment of silence, Zhao Qingge suddenly added, "I was still sleeping in the morning, didn’t hear you ring the doorbell."

Hey, are you apologizing?

Huang Tianxuan couldn’t help but laugh, but whether it was genuine or fake, she followed along, "That’s normal. I used to feel even sleepier when I was pregnant, only got better now...and it’s my fault too for not calling you, just directly asking Peifeng for the code."

The small grudge between the two women in the morning dissolved as quickly as it had come, leaving Li Peifeng both surprised and relieved. But life is always bumpy, with its ups and downs, falling and falling, and with the next topic, Li’s heart was suspended again...

"By the way."

Huang Tianxuan casually asked, "Old Zhao, have you picked a name for the baby?"

"Weiyi."

Zhao Qingge repeated, "The mind is prone to danger, the way is profound and subtle, meticulous and unified, keeping the middle way. For now, the name is set as Li Weiyi."

Li Peifeng cleared his throat, picking up a piece of rib in front of him and putting it in Huang Tianxuan’s bowl, as if trying to change the subject, "Here, eat more."

"Weiyi, Li Weiyi."

Huang Tianxuan was not distracted, mulling over the name.

Clearly, it’s well-written, rolls off the tongue easily, has meaningful connotations, a literary allusion, and a profound implication.

The mind is unpredictable, the way is righteous and subtle; meticulousness and unity are the tenets of the way of the heart. We must sincerely maintain the way of meticulousness and unity, without changing or altering our ideals and goals, ultimately integrating the mind with the way, abiding in the middle way.

Tsk, it seems a bit better than Zhiyi? Throw in a couple of classic texts, and it sounds more culturally rich!

Though that’s what she thought in her heart, Huang Tianxuan couldn’t stop herself from comparing the two names back and forth.

Zhiyi, Weiyi, Zhiyi, Weiyi, one of them, the only one...

Something’s wrong!!!

"My child is one of a kind, and your child is the only one?"

President Huang’s expression instantly changed!

Zhao Qingge looked up at her, then glanced at Huang Zhiyi, lips parted to swallow a mouthful of rice, finally, the corners of her mouth lifted slightly, and her eyes carried a hint of a smile, "Can’t understand what you’re saying, aren’t they both one? What’s the problem?"

Huang Tianxuan suddenly realized, then gritted her teeth in anger, "I... Zhao Qingge!! You planned this from the start, didn’t you? You’re thoroughly bad! You’re even scheming this over something so small, I’ve already registered the child’s household, only to find out now...aren’t you afraid of growing mushrooms on your mouth?"

"They’re both the first, they’re both the first, it’s not that complicated, why change the name?"

Li Peifeng tried to mediate with a wry smile, "Besides, the name Weiyi hasn’t been decided yet...I think it’s not great to have ’one’ in both kids’ names, it’s easy to mix them up."

"I think they’re pretty easy to distinguish."

Zhao Qingge first raised her head affirmatively, then paused, looking at the furious Huang Tianxuan and testing, "You just promised to help Weiyi with breastfeeding...you won’t go back on your word, right?"

With a plunk, Huang Tianxuan slammed the bowl and chopsticks down, rolling her eyes, "Let him starve!!!"
