"Think it through, changing your surname or not, we're still your family! No one will look down on you!" Lin Xue reminded her.
Just worried that this child might change her surname just to stay in the family.
"Big sister, I'm not acting on impulse, I've thought it over, I'm a girl, not a son, changing my surname doesn't make much difference. I want to have the same surname as you, I want to be the daughter of this family, a real daughter!" Dong Sihan spoke with a maturity and independence rare for someone her age.
"Alright! We'll take you to change it on Monday!" Lin Xue nodded. She understood this child's lack of security and belonging. After all, she herself said it's just a surname and doesn't matter much.
It's true, for a girl, even a child she gives birth to will carry the man's surname. Changing her surname won't change anything, so might as well do it.
"That's great..." Dong Sihan laughed.
"Lin Sihan... doesn't sound nice!" Lin Xia remarked, pouting.
