The simulated intonation sounds a bit awkward, but is actually not very authentic.

But this word came from Jarvis's mouth after all, so the sound of "Chun Ni", which was specially translated into Chinese, still shocked Shi Xiaolei's jaw, causing him to spray water all over the sky uncontrollably.

"Cough, cough, cough~!"

"..." Being sprayed all over his head and face by Shi Xiaolei, Stark was speechless to the extreme. While taking out a few wet wipes to wipe his face, he protested angrily: "Talk~! What the hell~

!Locke, is there something wrong with you? What are you doing..."

Pepper was helping Stark, but didn't say anything. Jarvis asked in confusion: "Mr. Locke, is there something wrong with my proposal?"

"Ahem~." He coughed a few more times, and finally poured out the few drops of tea that had been choked in his trachea. When his breathing became slightly calmer, Shi Xiaolei waved his hand: "You'd better talk about 'Chunni' first."

Where did this name come from, Jarvis, and what reason made you think of this name?"

"I just translated English into Chinese." Jarvis replied: "It is late spring and early summer. Little Morgan who was born during this period can also be regarded as a spring girl. So I think, use 'spring'

Girl' is probably more appropriate as her nickname."

"Then what? Because the word 'Ni' is often used to refer to girls in Chinese, so you chose this word?"

"Yes."

The exchange of these few sentences took nearly twenty seconds.

After wiping his face several times, Stark finally regained some of his attention.

"I think it's pretty good." Looking at Shi Xiaolei with a look of disgust, Stark picked up the conversation and interrupted, asking: "Is there something wrong?"

"It's not that it's wrong, it's just a bit... Well, I don't know how to explain it to you." After thinking for a moment, Shi Xiaolei sorted out the sentences in his mind, and then continued: "As far as I know,

In the countryside of northern China, many parents will give their daughters this nickname. In contrast, similar examples are rarely seen in the city... Don't get me wrong, I didn't say this name is rustic.

Meaning, it has very distinct regional characteristics.”

"If the person with this nickname was a girl born in northern China, I would definitely not react like this. But if it were little Morgan... Can you understand how I felt just now? Let me use an analogy.

Tony, what would you think if one day Rod suddenly told you that he had a nickname called Kalashnikov or Invanovich?"

"...You're saying that this nickname seems reasonable, but it actually sounds ridiculous?"

"It's not ridiculous to say that it's ridiculous. It just feels like 'the name doesn't match me at all.' It should be said that the contrast is huge and not easy to accept." At this point, Shi Xiaolei paused and smiled again.

: "But having said that, although it is inappropriate, looking at it from another perspective, this name also has some special advantages."

"Um?"

"Just like when we Chinese people choose English names, most of them choose among very common names. It is almost impossible to think of those particularly rare names. If you have a Caucasian face, go with a

Chinese people introduce themselves as 'My name is Chun Ni' and tell them that this is the nickname you have had since you were born..."

"Haha, it's hard to say anything else. What I'm sure of is that the Chinese people standing in front of you will respond to you with an extremely enthusiastic attitude, just like they would treat old friends who have known many people."

"Take myself as an example. Suppose I am still working in the store every day as before, and suddenly one day I meet a girl like this... Haha, nine times out of ten, I will directly waive her bill and treat her

Free food and drink. Of course, the premise is that she does not cause trouble in my store and behaves within reasonable and legal limits."

This little accident was indeed quite interesting to Shi Xiaolei.

Someone who wasn't paying attention, said a bit too much unconsciously.

But Stark and Pepper didn't think he was too verbose. In fact, after listening to Shi Xiaolei's detailed and appropriate metaphorical explanation, the two of them unconsciously started thinking about it and started thinking seriously.

"I think it's pretty good." Pepper made the choice first.

Looking at the baby sleeping soundly in the cradle, and then looking up at Shi Xiaolei, Pepper smiled and said: "Since she has a Chinese name, she will of course have to deal with Chinese people when she is growing up. If she can

I think it’s quite good to have a name that is naturally endearing and can easily gain favor from Chinese people.”

"To take a step back, at least when others hear this name, they can't help but ask why. In this way, you can avoid the situation of 'I don't like it, so I don't even want to say anything'.

I think this is quite beneficial for her to make friends, especially Chinese friends."

"But..." Stark had a different idea. He felt that the nickname "Chunni" could only give fifty points at most, which would not even pass: "Pepper, you didn't notice the key point in his words.

Huh? He made it very clear,...yi? Or is it Li? It doesn't matter, anyway, he said that this name is not very fashionable, and generally only country people will use it. You don't..."

"Ahem~." Interrupting Stark's words, Shi Xiaolei raised his hand: "Correction, my original words were 'it has very regional characteristics', which is not the same thing as the 'rustic' you understand.

,ok?”

"I know." Rolling his eyes, Stark continued to argue: "I mean, there must be people who think so. You can't deny this, right?"

"Uh..." After thinking for a while, Shi Xiaolei showed a wry smile and raised his hand to touch his nose: "Okay, I admit that this possibility does exist."

"So, Pepper, I think we have to be more cautious and not make decisions easily."

"..." After staring at Stark for a while, Pepper suddenly laughed: "Well, let's vote. I vote for it, and you must vote against it, right?"

He looked at Pepper slightly hesitantly.

Making sure that she was not 'testing' herself, Stark nodded carefully: "If you really give me the right to vote, yes."

"Okay, now it's a one-on-one battle." Pepper raised her head and looked at a corner on the ceiling: "Jarvis, it's your turn. Agree? Or object? Don't consider Tony's attitude, just say

What do you think? Come on, give me an answer."

"I vote in favor." After a brief hesitation, Jarvis responded: "Sir, I'm sorry, I don't support your choice."

"I've already guessed it." Stark waved his hand somewhat depressedly: "After all, you came up with this name, so of course you can't vote against it."
