Evening.
Lin Wan tucked her little girl into bed after a bath, and instructed her own stinky son, "Take your sister to bed early."
"Will she wet the bed at night?" Xu Jiayan asked with a complicated expression, remembering how not long ago his little brother had been drawing maps on the sheets.
Glancing at the little girl who was even younger than his second child, Lin Wan said with less confidence, "Wet the bed? She shouldn't... right! But just in case, you can wake her up in the middle of the night to pee."
"What did you say?" Xu Jiayan's face tensed, with a slightly twisted expression.
Seeing the little girl's look of disdain, he refused, "Impossible, I refuse. Take her away." There's no way he'd deal with the peeing, absolutely impossible.
"I'm not leaving, I want to stay with brother." The little girl, who understood the adults' conversation, shook her head quickly.
Lin Wan saw her son's resistant expression and said sheepishly, "I was just saying, just in case. If you don't want to, then forget it." Then she turned to the little girl, "Yuanyuan, if you need to pee at night, call for your brother, okay?"
"Call brother!" The little girl looked in Xu Jiayan's direction and replied softly.
Xu Jiayan: ...
Why does he feel this is so unreliable?
He has a feeling that keeping this little girl here is a mistake.
While speechless, he saw a figure with a pillow peeking around the door.
"What are you doing?"
Young Master Xu, realizing he'd been spotted, sauntered in, tilting his little head proudly, "I'm sleeping with brother!"
Upon hearing this, the little girl immediately wrapped her arms around Xu Jiayan, declaring, "Yuanyuan's."
Brother is Yuanyuan's.
"It's not." Young Master Xu became anxious, clearly brother was his, and began climbing onto the bed with his bottom in the air.
"Go back to your own room to sleep." Xu Jiayan, with a dark face, plucked Xu Jinyan who was halfway onto the bed back down.
"No, I want to sleep with brother tonight too." Xu Jinyan, still not giving up, tried to climb up again, but didn't dare move forward under his brother's stern gaze.
Xu Jiayan: "No!"
If he could, he wouldn't want either of them.
"Why can she sleep with brother?" Young Master Xu felt his little heart was wounded.
Pointing at the pink little Meat Ball occupying his brother's bed, he complained grievously, "Do you like her more now and not me?"
Xu Jiayan: "No!"
You do, you do!
Young Master Xu huffed, "I don't believe you!"
He's just a poor little unloved kid!
"How about Mom sleeps with you, would that be okay?" Lin Wan stepped forward, trying to pick up the little one.
But he dodged her, "No, I want to sleep with brother." Why could this unknown little brat occupy his brother when he couldn't?
Xu Jiayan: "You're a boy, boys should learn to sleep on their own."
"Yes, yes, when your brother was your age, he also slept by himself," Lin Wan chimed in.
"Then why can she sleep with brother?" Xu Jinyan pointed in the direction of the little Meat Ball.
Lin Wan replied, "Sisters are girls, girls are more timid, so they need someone to accompany them. Our Yanyan is a brave man."
The little one puffed up his chest, successfully persuaded.
But he couldn't help giving the girl on the bed a proud glance: Girls are such a hassle.
Still, there was a tiny bit of reluctance as he pleaded with Xu Jiayan, "Isn't just one night okay?"
