Chapter 473 - 483 Reconciliation
Li Yifei cleared his throat and said, "Xin’er, let’s talk about the child."
Ning Xin’er was in a good mood, responding, "What about the child?"
Li Yifei said seriously, "Xin’er, when you see our daughter, what identity do you assume?"
Ning Xin’er, seeing Li Yifei’s seriousness, and also because he agreed to spend time with her, began to consider how she could rightfully bring their daughter home, responding, "Usually, I visit her as her godmother. She still doesn’t know I’m her birth mother."
Li Yifei frowned and said, "The girl is already over three years old; she’s beginning to recognize family. This makes things difficult for us."
Ning Xin’er also felt a bit guilty, responding, "I didn’t think much about it before. But now I realize that although my daughter is quite affectionate towards me, in her heart, Li Qiang and Yang Shuyao are her parents. This is very troubling for me."
Li Yifei thought for a moment and said, "Now we must separate our daughter from them and have her stay with us. She’s still young; at the very least, we can gradually correct this. If we wait until she’s older, it will be even harder."
Ning Xin’er nodded, a mix of blame and self-reproach in her voice, "Then I’ll listen to you. I didn’t think much about this before; I didn’t even know when I would find you, so I didn’t dare to take her with me."
"I think this might work, since you’re her godmother, why not take her to live with us? That way, she shouldn’t feel any aversion. Then we can find an excuse for Li Qiang and Yang Shuyao to leave. She’s young and though she may miss them, having you as her godmother by her side, I think she’ll adapt quickly. If we persist for a while, she will gradually forget Li Qiang and Yang Shuyao and accept us."
Ever since meeting Li Yifei, although Ning Xin’er didn’t verbally disclose the whereabouts of their daughter, in her heart, she hoped that Li Yifei would find her and they could live together. So, how to make their daughter recognize her as her birth mother and accept Li Yifei as her father had been on her mind for quite a while. Now that Li Yifei had come up with a solution, she was wholeheartedly in agreement.
