Before he was born, he inherited the impetuous nature of the Qi family and had to come out of his mother's womb at only eight months old. But when he landed, he was a premature baby weighing four and a half pounds. When Qi Dashan first saw his son, he was shocked. He was covered in bruises and purples. How could he be uglier?

He only took a quick look at the child before the nurse took him to the neonatal intensive care unit, where he slept in an incubator and no one was allowed to see him.

Faith Qiao had just given birth and asked her husband in a sweat, "How is the baby?"

Qi Dashan was actually very nervous, but he didn't want to make his wife worry, so he said, "That's good, it's a son. He will definitely be good-looking when he grows up."

Faith Qiao breathed a sigh of relief, his eyelids drooping: "It doesn't matter whether it looks good or not, as long as it's healthy."

Qi Dashan felt sorry for his wife and coaxed her, "You should take a rest. The child is fine. There are doctors watching him. They are more careful than us."

Aiden Qi stayed in the incubator for half a month, and Comrade Qi Dashan was very worried during this period. He had to pay attention to his wife, worry about his son, and deal with a lot of things in the company. He lost three or four pounds because of this.

When his son came out safely, Qi Dashan saw this yellow and ugly child. He felt disgusted that he did not look like his mother, but he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He visited a master that day and asked for a name.

The master said Aiden Qi was born under the element of fire, and wood gives birth to fire, so he asked him to choose a name containing the character "wood".

Qi Dashan was always quick, accurate and ruthless in his work. He immediately chose the character "木". This was it, but how could a name with the character "木" be acceptable? Since there was no "木", he would have chosen a complete one!

So Aiden Qi’s first name was born, Aiden Qi.

However, this name was only used for three months. It was not because Faith Qiao could not stand her husband's taste, nor was it because Mr. Qiao thought the name was too vulgar, but because Qi Dashan himself was not happy with it.

Aiden Qi has been home for three months, and Faith Qiao has been restless day and night.

He was a premature baby weighing four and a half pounds, but he was as energetic as a little tiger. He howled when he was hungry, howled when he was full, howled before going to bed, and howled twice when he woke up. Faith Qiao's body had not recovered yet, and he was so thin after being howled like this.

Qi Dashan was clumsy and couldn't help, but he felt sorry for his wife, so he could only visit the master again to seek psychological comfort.

This time he changed the master and found one with a greater reputation.

When the master heard the name Aiden Qi, he pondered and said, "Not appropriate. Your wife is born under the earth element, and wood overcomes earth."

Qi Dashan was anxious when he heard this: "What should I do? My son still needs wood."

The master said, "Your son is not lacking in wood, he is born under the sign of fire, wood helps fire, but it is not only wood that helps fire, fire can also help fire..." The master said a lot of gibberish, Qi Dashan understood a little bit, but not a bit, but Lao Qi was very knowledgeable, and stuffed the big red envelope that was about to burst, the master's eyelids jumped, and immediately gave him the confirmation: "Mu, this word is very suitable for your son."

"Mu?" Although Qi Dashan was not well-educated, he also felt that this word was not good. "Doesn't this mean evening? My son was just born and you let him go to the sunset?"

The master quickly added: "Mu refers to the evening sun. The sun is pure fire. The morning is too cold, the noon is too hot, and the evening is just right. Moreover, Mu has the homonym of the word wood, which can avoid your wife's earth fate and warm your son's fire fate. It is the most suitable."

It sounded so reasonable that Qi Dashan readily accepted it.

While thanking the master, he called his assistant and said, "Report Liu Zhenjun from West Hutong to me. He is a charlatan."

The master was startled and his hand holding the red envelope shook.

Qi Dashan turned to him and smiled happily: "Master, don't be surprised. You are a true master. I will not report you."

The master smiled dryly but his heart was sweating: People said Qi Dashan was a ruffian, and he thought it was true!

This master probably didn't do anything too bad and had good luck. After Qi Dashan changed his son's name, his life went smoothly.

From then on, Aiden Qi was called Aiden Qi.

It’s a pity that the evening sun couldn’t suppress him. Aiden Qi had shown his father’s fiery temper since he was young. He was like a little firecracker. Wherever he was, things would explode.

At the age of one, he was invincible in the park. At the age of two, he had a group of younger brothers around him. At the age of three, he was the boss in kindergarten. At such a young age, he became a well-known figure in the entire park.

Even the head teacher would casually ask when passing by the first grade class: "Has Aiden Qi been naughty today?" Then the head teacher would say "Oh my God" in an authentic Northeastern accent - he was scared by the big spider in Aiden Qi's hand.

When Aiden Qi was promoted to the middle class, all the kindergarten teachers said: Let me teach the middle class? I'll quit and find out.

Fortunately, Qi Dashan's career made rapid progress at this time, and the small company became a large group. The scale was so large that the small city could not accommodate him. The company's headquarters was set in City B, and the Qi family also moved there.

When Aiden Qi said goodbye to his classmates and teachers, the whole garden lined the streets to see him off, with tears in their eyes.

Everyone was so reluctant to let him go, and Qi Dashan was very moved: "Son, you are doing very well. When we are in society, connections are very important."

The four-year-old baby nodded seriously.

The kindergarten guard who heard everything clearly almost stumbled: What about connections... Your son is a devil, the whole kindergarten will be in celebration after he leaves!

At least kindergarten teachers don’t have to choose between resigning and sacrificing themselves!

After arriving in City B, Qi Dashan believed that he was not short of money and did not want to mistreat his son. In order to help his child build connections in the future (without intending to offend anyone), he sent Aiden Qi to the most famous "aristocratic" kindergarten in City B.

Of course, the kindergarten is not called this name, but everyone knows it - those who can get in here either have power, money, or both. In any case, they are either rich or noble, and the word "ordinary" has nothing to do with it.

Faith Qiao was worried about her son's transfer to another school. While packing her son's schoolbag, she told him, "Listen to your teacher, get along well with your classmates, tell your mother if you are wronged, and don't cause trouble."

Aiden Qi nodded and said in a baby voice: "Don't worry, Mom, I like kindergarten the most." He was different from other children. He thought kindergarten was really interesting. It was crowded and lively, and the teachers liked to yell.

Faith Qiao sighed and wanted to give more advice, but Qi Dashan said, "How can a man not have the ability to adapt to this?"

Faith Qiao glared at her husband. Qi Dashan was a mountain king outside, but he had bronchitis when he came back. She quickly lowered her voice to coax her wife: "You have to learn to let go. You can't spoil your son. You will suffer in the future."

Faith Qiao understood this, so she patted Aiden Qi's little hand and said reluctantly, "Come on, baby."

Aiden Qi smiled sweetly: "Yeah!" He will try his best and hopes that his new classmates are not crybabies.

Qi Dashan is a model parent who raises his children in a rough manner. On Aiden Qi's first day at kindergarten, he put him in the parking lot and let him walk to the gate by himself.

Although the kindergarten does not allow parents to enter, most parents will park their cars, carefully send their children to the door, and only feel relieved when they see the teacher take them away. This is Aiden Qi's first time in the kindergarten, so it is reasonable for Qi Dashan to send him to the classroom.

But Qi Dashan didn't, he believed that his son was fine.

Aiden Qi really had no problems at all. When he was born he was so ugly with purple bruises all over his body, but now that he has grown up, he is so fair and cute.

In fact, the reason why he was so green and purple back then was because his skin was too thin and he held his breath. Later, he was ugly because of jaundice. When the jaundice subsided, he was as white as tofu. His facial features were like Faith Qiao, with double eyelids and big eyes. He smiled as cute as he could be. He didn't look like Qi Dashan, a rough guy at all. Of course, his personality was 100% like Faith Qiao.

He has a delicate appearance, is neatly dressed, and walks neatly and cutely with a small schoolbag on his back. He is really likable to look at.

Qi Dashan didn't leave. Although he didn't go to see him off, he had to watch him go. After all, his son was only four years old. If he got lost, he would have nowhere to cry.

Many children came one after another, all of them were led by someone. When they suddenly saw Aiden Qi walking, they couldn't help but look at him a few more times.

Aiden Qi was generous and elegant. Whenever someone looked at him, he would smile at them, just like a little angel.

Halfway through his walk, he unexpectedly saw a child who was walking by himself like him.

Aiden Qi thought this was a man (his father told him so), so he walked over and said hello: "Hello."

The "man" was startled, his small body trembled slightly, but he didn't look back and just walked forward.

Aiden Qi caught up with him in a few steps and came over to look at him. He exclaimed, "Sister, you are so beautiful."
