  “Mommy.”


  Xiaojiao’s voice sounded from outside the room.

  It had flustered Su Yue, and she hastily responded, “Mommy is coming out soon! Xiaojiao, go to your bed first.”


  But Xiaojiao didn’t listen and simply continued calling her.

  Su Yue switched off the hairdryer since her hair was almost dry. She then ruffled her hair.

  After that, she walked to the door.

  The girl was standing outside, staring at her with her huge innocent eyes.

  She was wearing pink polka dots pajamas that complimented her fair skin. Her hair was untied and her curls were messy.

  She looked exceedingly adorable.

  Su Yue was originally wearing a frown. But when she saw her daughter, she couldn’t help but smile.

  As she lifted the little girl, she changed her mind about her chiding her.

  “Time to sleep.” Su Yue pretended to be unruffled.

  She carried Xiaojiao to her bed.

  Jiao Chen was lying on the edge of the bed with a financial magazine in his hands.

  He placed the magazine down when he saw Xiaojiao. He rose and carried Xiaojiao.

  “I will tell you a story.” Jiao Chen placed Xiaojiao on the bed before lying down next to her. He was gazing at her with a tender expression.

  Xiaojiao nodded excitedly. It had been a long time since she waited for a story.

  Su Yue folded her arms as she walked to the other side of the bed.

  Su Xiaojiao was intending to listen to the story. But she frowned when she saw Su Yue sitting so far from Jiao Chen. She sat up and crawled towards Su Yue.

  She pulled Su Yue’s arm and said, “Mommy and Daddy sleep together.”


  Su Yue felt awkward and she said, “Xiaojiao, listen to the story first.”


  Even if…… they were to sleep together, they wouldn’t let her witness it.

  Su Xiaojiao shook her head. “I don’t want the story.”


  Su Yue frowned. “Listen to the story.”


  This girl was merely 3 years old. Why was she so smart? And besides, doesn’t she love listening to her daddy telling her stories?

  “I don’t want.” Su Xiaojiao was adamant and she laid down on her bed. She covered her ears and repeated, “Mommy and Daddy sleep together.”


  The same sentence again.

  Even a fool would know that she had heard this from the rest of the children. So, that was why she insisted for Su Yue to sleep with Jiao Chen.

  She had no choice but to oblige since the girl seemed to recite scripture. Su Yue and Jiao Chen were both blushing hard.

  “Then…… you……” Su Yue realized that she was sitting on the edge of the bed. So, she changed her mind and climbed over to the other side.

  Her heart was racing.

  Her back was against Jiao Chen while she faced Xiaojiao.

  Xiaojiao blinked at her and blurted, “Mommy, I want a brother.”


  Su Yue was speechless……

  She reckoned that she could fry an egg on her face at that moment.

  She frowned. How she wished she could seal the girl’s mouth.

  When Su Yue didn’t reply, Xiaojiao repeated once more. “I want a brother.”


  It exasperated Su Yue.

  She gritted her teeth. “Hurry up and sleep. Stop talking.”


  “Xiaojiao won’t talk.” Su Xiaojiao covered her mouth and shut her eyes.

  After the girl closed her eyes, she fell asleep in no time.

  When she heard her rhythmic breathing and saw her pouty mouth, Su Yue gave her a gentle peck on her cheek.
