The next day, when Ye Shuang arrived at the office, he learned from his assistant about Xu Yitian being transferred to a branch office—Ye Shuang wasn't surprised at all. After such an incident, it was highly likely they'd want to move that person away from the center of power.
"The weather is getting colder and colder. I wonder when it will warm up."
"Hmph, not possible this month," An Shiyu said lazily from the side.
Ye Shuang didn't say much more and just started his daily work. Occasionally looking up, however, he noticed the fish in the aquarium swimming very energetically, but for some reason, its color seemed a bit different.
"Has this fish been fed?"
"Nope."
"Then this fish is quite hardy," Ye Shuang said.
"After all, if it dies, we just get a new one. This is already the fifth one," An Shiyu continued playing her game without looking up, "Keeping fish just requires changing them out frequently."
Ye Shuang: "..."
So it was already the fifth one?
Ye Shuang's gaze fell on the fish, and he couldn't help but ask, "Are you two planning to keep sharing one identity like this? Have you thought about giving the other one an identity?"
Hearing this, An Shiyu looked up. She didn't even notice her character being killed by a monster. She gave Ye Shuang a somewhat strange look and asked,
"Why bring this up suddenly?"
"Just thought of it," Ye Shuang smiled. "Although your personalities are very similar, I feel there are still differences..."
An Shiyu looked away, as if thinking about something. After a moment, she shrugged, "Well, identities or whatever, it doesn't really matter."
"Or do you want to give her a name?"
"Not really..."
"Then give me a name suggestion," An Shiyu said, nudging Ye Shuang with her elbow, seeming to get interested.
Give the super-memory fish a name?
Ye Shuang thought for a moment, then casually suggested a name, "Hmm, An Shiyu?"
The next second, he saw an expression of utter disdain on the girl's face, as if saying [That's it?].
"An Shike."
"Ridiculous."
"An Shi Xiaoyu."
"Your taste... better not name your future children," An Shiyu seemed to imagine the future scene. If she ever had a child with Ye Shuang or something, she definitely couldn't let him choose the name.
"Oh, then how about An Shiyi? Doesn't that sound okay?" Ye Shuang said with a smile.
Hearing this, An Shiyu actually considered it, "Well, it's passable. But shouldn't the child have the surname Ye in the future?"
Ye Shuang was stunned, "Huh?"
At that moment, An Shiyu didn't react either, just found Ye Shuang's reaction odd. But soon, she came to her senses, her small face stiffening.
"What child?" Ye Shuang asked.
"Oh, I meant letting that one be your child," An Shiyu immediately said.
"What a wild imagination," Ye Shuang twitched the corner of his mouth, already used to her strange remarks. He didn't dwell on it and continued asking,
"How about An Shiyi?"
"Whatever makes you happy."
“You're so perfunctory...”
But Ye Shuang had just said it offhand and didn't notice An Shiyu's small ears, which had already turned red.
Time flew by, and it was already lunchtime.
"Hungry."
Ye Shuang got his food and then took An Shiyu around to find a seat.
"Hmm?" By chance, he noticed Chen Hai's back not far away.
"Chen Hai."
"Huh?" Chen Hai looked up and, seeing it was Ye Shuang, patted the seat beside him—then he suddenly noticed An Shiyu, "Oh, Xiaoyu, how come you're not wearing strange clothes today?"
Today's An Shiyu was somewhat more normal, not running around in a maid outfit or something.
"Actually, I am wearing some, you just can't see them," An Shiyu said.
"The Emperor's New Clothes?" Chen Hai wiped his mouth.
Actually, An Shiyu meant underwear.
At that moment, Ye Shuang suddenly noticed a small meal tray next to Chen Hai and asked, "Whose is that?"
"Oh, this tray is..." Before Chen Hai could finish, a voice came from behind, "Dad!"
Ye Shuang turned and saw a little girl running over. It was Chen Hai's daughter, Qiaoqiao.
"Ah, Uncle Ye Shuang, hello." Chen Qiaoqiao had beautiful princess-style hair, and her eyes lit up when she saw Ye Shuang.
Ye Shuang was a bit surprised, "Qiaoqiao?"
"She came looking for me today, sigh..." Chen Hai also said, then reached out and patted his daughter's head. Clearly, he was both touched and amused by his daughter coming to find him.
It was quite dangerous for an elementary school kid to be running around alone.
"Here, Qiaoqiao, sit properly and eat," Chen Hai had Qiaoqiao sit in her seat to eat.
"These are all so delicious," Qiaoqiao said in a childish voice. "Mom's cooking is really bad, so spicy... and tastes awful."
"Is that so? It's bad?" Ye Shuang was taken aback.
"Yeah, just like Auntie's cooking, both are terrible," Chen Qiaoqiao nodded emphatically. "Mom even asked me why I wasn't eating and if I was feeling unwell."
Auntie... she must mean Chen Qin.
"So you must have been hungry this whole time," Ye Shuang reached out and ruffled Qiaoqiao's head.
"Mhmm," Qiaoqiao nodded. She felt too embarrassed to say her mom's cooking was bad. "Mom also said she'd take me to the doctor for a check-up."
An Shiyu spoke up then, "She should take you for a check-up."
"For Traditional Chinese Medicine, go see Tasiting. For Western medicine, go see KFC."
Qiaoqiao was stunned for a moment. That... sort of made sense?
"A medical genius."
"Since Qiaoqiao came to the company, did you tell Chen Qin?" Ye Shuang also asked Chen Hai.
"No, isn't she out on business? Since she's not at the company, there's no need to mention it," Chen Hai said, then looked at Qiaoqiao, who was eating in small bites beside him.
"Qiaoqiao, Dad will give you my supplementary card. After school every day, go buy yourself something to eat, okay?"
Qiaoqiao said, "I can't. Mom doesn't let me eat things from outside the school gate."
"It's fine. There's a small shop inside the school, right? Go buy some snacks there. It's still better than eating your mom's cooking," Chen Hai said. Although things from the school shop might not be healthy, she's at a growing age. Surely it's better than starving, right?
"Mom will get angry."
"We won't tell Mom. It's a little secret between you and Dad," Chen Hai smiled.
"Hehe, okay then," Qiaoqiao quickly agreed. But soon, she suddenly looked up, "Dad, can I ask you something?"
"Sure, go ahead."
"Dad, how much longer can you be my dad?" Chen Qiaoqiao's question made Chen Hai freeze on the spot.
"Why do you ask that?"
"Mom said you want that auntie and don't want us anymore, so you won't be my dad in the future," Chen Qiaoqiao said, reaching out to tug on Chen Hai's clothes.
"Dad, can you keep being Qiaoqiao's dad in the future? I really, really love you, Dad."
Chen Hai: "..."

Bad news: I transmigrated. This is a terrifying high-martial world, and my original, pathetically weak body fell into a coma and never woke up. Good news: I got a Popularity Points system upon arrival. I can see live comments and even create an unkillable alternate identity. Starting out, the alternate identity has all stats at 1.
