Chapter 214 Song Yanchu

"Uncle, where do you want to go? Can you come with me to Anxi City? I'll be alone there after school starts, so you can come and keep me company." Ting Nan knew that her master was worried about Gao Yanchu being alone and was afraid that he might do something foolish.

"That's a good suggestion, Yan Chu! We're really worried about her being a girl, but we can't leave her alone. You're perfect for the job." Gao Haoran immediately understood his disciple's intention. When you're alive, you always need something to care about and something to do so you don't feel so empty.

Back then, he drifted through life aimlessly, and it was only with Ting Nan's constant entanglement that his heart slowly warmed up.

"Can I go to Anxi City?" Gao Yanchu asked Gao Haoran. "Can I stay there for an extended period?"

Gao Haoran nodded, "Of course you can. Now that you have a new name and a new identity, you can go anywhere."

"Uncle, you can also tutor me. You don't know how worried I've been lately. I came from the county town, and I don't know if I can keep up in the city. Sigh, if my grades drop too much, not only will I lose face, but my godmother will also lose face." Hearing Nan's dramatic flair, she even squeezed out a few tears.

Gao Haoran added fuel to the fire, "That's right, be careful your dad beats you up, and I'll beat you up too, you're representing the entire Yunxiang County!"

Ting Nan winked and asked, "Master, are you telling the truth? This is so harsh, I'm under so much pressure!"

Of course, you're the only one from Yunxiang County who got into Anxi No. 1 Middle School, didn't you know that?

Ah...ah, is it too late to regret it now?

Don't even think about it!

"Strike while the iron is hot, stop dawdling," Gao Haoran said decisively. "Yan Chu, get ready. Tomorrow I'll take you to the Ting Nan family to meet her father and family. Let them know that there are adults with their daughter."

As expected, Gao Wanli and Qian Shuzhen were extremely grateful to Gao Yanchu upon hearing this.

Gao Haoran said, "That's great, brother. With someone as capable as you by our side, we can rest assured."

Chien Shu-chen also said, "Uncle Yan, when Tingnan is disobedient, you can just let go and discipline him. It's okay to scold or beat him as if he were your own child."

Mu Xudong and Jiang Qianqian also came over, exchanging glances and chuckling to themselves: Listen to this girl Nan, she was thinking of going solo, but unexpectedly another 'Tang Monk' has appeared.

Oh yeah, I heard she took it all herself, which makes me want to laugh.

……

Feeling everyone's kindness, Gao Yanchu smiled. When no one was around, he whispered to Gao Haoran, "Ah Huo, can I be Ting Nan's godfather?"

"Hahaha...hahaha..." Gao Haoran's hearty laughter drew everyone's attention. Gao Haoran said directly, "Everyone, Yan Chu wants to listen to Nan as her adopted daughter. What do you all think?"

"Okay!"

"good idea!"

"Mother, I think it's a good idea too. This way, Yan Chu can rightfully discipline Ting Nan!"

“That’s right, Ting Nan is a blessed person. So many people love her. We couldn’t be happier.”

"Alright, everyone agrees. Yan Chu, from now on you'll have to share your daughter's surname—Song Yan Chu!"

"Song Yanchu, not bad, not bad, what a good name!"

And just like that, at a dinner party, Tingnan gained another 'father'—that was fast! Even Liu Dayong from the nursing home was surprised.

Later, when Song Tingnan took over the treasures that the Japanese coveted, she was even more dumbfounded. Her fathers were all incredibly capable!

But how should we address him? Song Wanli is Dad, Mu Xudong is Godfather, Liu Dayong is Master, Gao Haoran is Master, and Song Yanchu? According to age, he should be the youngest, so should we call him Little Dad? Little Dad? Song Yanchu refused, it was too awkward, "Tingnan, you should just call me Uncle!"

Ting Nan had no objection; he'd gotten used to calling him "Uncle" and it sounded affectionate.

"Master, look at me, look at me!" Ting Nan put on ugly makeup again and showed it to Gao Haoran.

Gao Haoran said, "What are you looking at? Isn't this just how it is?"

“Master, please take a closer look. We’ll go find my Master Liu later and let him take a closer look too.”

"How to say?"

"Hmph! Because you won't see it anymore. When I go to Anxi City, I won't wear ugly makeup anymore!"

"why?"
