Chapter 311: Chapter 311: Our Daughter Will Be Named Zhichun
At the moment he asked those last two words, Mo Chuxi felt a sharp pain tear through his chest.
The pain was like being flayed alive, making even breathing unbearable.
Yan Xinxin lowered her gaze and stared at the household registration book, lost in thought.
Her vision blurred, little by little, amidst the silence.
"Did you hear what | just said?"
She asked softly.
Mo Chuxi could clearly hear her voice trembling slightly.
The overwhelming guilt and remorse made escape impossible. Mo Chuxi gripped the steering wheel tightly, his
deep eyes laced with profound apology and compassion as he looked at Yan Xinxin.
"Yes, | had a daughter. Back then, | was pregnant with twins,"
She curved her pale lips and began to speak, a bitter smile lingering there.
"Xi was the older brother, and she was the younger sister. But because of my poor health and my part-twork
during pregnancy, | couldn’t keep up with proper nutrition, which led to my younger daughter being born with a

Hiss.
Listening to Yan Xinxin’s painful recollections, Mo Chuxi tightened his grip on the steering wheel even more,
trying to release the pain he was feeling in that moment.
"My little angel. As soon as she left my womb, she left me. She didn’t even get the chance to open her eyes and
see the world..."
"Plop."
Transparent tears silently fell, but it was as if they landed straight onto Mo Chuxi’s heart, scalding him with
unbearable heat.
Mo Chuxi’s brow furrowed deeply, each joint in his fingers tense and strained.
"Her name... was Chun?"
"Zhichun."
Yan Xinxin wiped away her tears and smiled softly as she replied.
"My little angel was as pure and flawless as a gardenia flower. | will remember her forever."
As she spoke, she lifted her head to look at Mo Chuxi. In that fleeting moment, as he met Yan Xinxin’s misty,
tear-filled eyes, Mo Chuxi’s heart skipped a beat.
"So, Young Master Mo, are you really sure you want to marry me? | don’t only have a son—I once had a daughter.
Also, you've seen my family background; I don’t match you at all."
"My decision won't change."
Mo Chuxi shifted his gaze, avoiding Yan Xinxin’s eyes.
The more he looked, the less he felt capable of facing her.
"Tomorrow morning, when the Civil Affairs Bureau opens, we'll go."
As his words fell, he stepped on the accelerator.
When they returned to the apartment, the two little ones were already asleep.
After showering, Yan Xinxin noticed that nobody was in the bedroom. She walked to the study and found Mo
Chuxi sitting there alone.
Oddly, the study was unlit; he sat quietly at the desk like an exquisite yet sorrowful statue, enveloped in silence.
"Click!"
Yan Xinxin pressed the switch, and the spacious study instantly brightened.
Mo Chuxi looked slightly startled, lifting his hazy deep eyes to see Yan Xinxin standing at the door in her
nightgown.
"Why are you sitting here without turning the lights on?"
Mo Chuxi quickly snapped back to reality, the daze in his eyes instantly replaced with clarity and sharpness.
"Yan Xinxin, if this baby is a girl, she’ll be called Zhichun."
"...What did you say?"
Yan Xinxin was aghast. Using the nof her deceased daughter for the baby in her belly? Why?
"It’s late. Tfor bed."
Before Yan Xinxin could respond, Mo Chuxi had already made up his mind. He walked forward and scooped her
up into his arms.

"Be good, Mrs. Mo."
The night seemed to spin on its axis.
As dawn broke, a hazy mist gently blanketed the early summer morning.
Still dazed in sleep, Yan Xinxin was vaguely stirred awake by snoise.
She raised a hand to rub her drowsy eyes, slowly opening them. But what she saw instantly jolted her awake!
