Jiang Yan frowned and stopped her, saying, "You don't need to do these things. Make yourself comfortable in this home. Since you are my daughter now, I will treat you well and regard you as my own flesh and blood. Do you understand?"
Tao Tao nodded nervously, still with her head down. Jiang Yan said helplessly, "Sit down and watch TV with me. From now on, you can call me Mama."
Although she was very displeased with Jin Qing for unilaterally adopting a child for her, Tao Tao was innocent and remarkably sensible. Jiang Yan found she couldn't bring herself to hurt the child anymore.
"Mama, I will be good from now on and won't cause you trouble," Tao Tao said obediently.
"Don't talk nonsense. Since you are my daughter, you must tell me whatever happens. I will help you resolve and handle it. Mama is the one who can help you solve any problem. If anyone dares to bully you, you must tell me even more so. Anyone who dares to touch me, I will beat them until their teeth fall out. Do you understand?" Mian Mian cautioned Tao Tao.
Tao Tao nodded, her eyes starting to water. Did she finally have a mother who could protect her?
"Your name is Jin Tao Tao?" Jiang Yan's disgust grew with every thought. Jin Qing was becoming more and more outrageous. If she truly wanted to adopt a child, she should at least give the child a decent name. What kind of name was Jin Tao Tao, especially for a girl?
She picked up her phone and called Jin Lan. Jin Lan answered immediately, "Wife, what's up?"
"Change the child's name. She was named Jin Tao Tao, something your sister would do! Does she want the child to be mischievous? What kind of name is that for a girl? She'll be laughed at by her classmates at school!" Jiang Yan couldn't bear to mention Jin Qing now; just thinking of her made her feel sick.
That woman had truly shown her what ugliness in the world meant!
"I understand. What do you want to rename the child? We're both responsible for her now. What do you want her to be called? Decide on a name. Don't be angry. What do you want for dinner? I'll bring it home for you," Jin Lan said.
"I'm not eating. I'm full of anger," Jiang Yan said, quickly hanging up the phone. She looked at Tao Tao, who was watching her with wide, fearful eyes, and knew she had lost her temper again. But whenever Jin Qing was involved, she couldn't remain calm. "Tao Tao, from now on, this will be your nickname. Shall we choose a formal name for you? We won't call you Jin Tao Tao. How about we pick a name you like together?"
Tao Tao nodded obediently.
Jiang Yan found paper and a pen and began to research names with Tao Tao.
Jian Yi, Mu Xin, Luo Rou, Xing Chu, Yi Nan, Wan Tang, Le Wei...
Jiang Yan wrote down at least twenty beautiful names for girls, allowing Tao Tao to choose from them or to pick one she liked herself.
Tao Tao finally chose the name Jian Yi.
Tao Tao said she preferred simpler names.
"Jin Jian Yi, it sounds nice. It's a good name. I'm glad you like it!" Jiang Yan was also very satisfied. She suddenly felt that naming a child was a very meaningful thing. It was a pity that she was destined not to have her own children in this life.
But now she had little Jian Yi, which was also very good.
She wondered what kind of astonishing beauty Jian Yi's parents were. The little girl was extraordinarily beautiful for her young age, the prettiest girl she had ever seen.
However, the prettier a girl is, the more she needs to be protected, because pretty girls easily attract attention. Jiang Yan now felt a great responsibility! She would definitely protect her little Jian Yi in the future and not let any boy bully her!
