"Come in." Nian Mu smiled. The bed in the master bedroom was large. Even if Taotao and Zhan Zhan came to rest, the bed could still accommodate them.
"Thank you, sister." Ruanruan explored inside, then walked into the bedroom, looked at Mu Shaoling, and asked: "Dad, can I sleep here? I'm afraid..."
Mu Shaoling looked at Ruanruan and knew that she had always been timid and had to sleep with others to get used to a strange environment.
The bedrooms in Zhanzhan and Rourou both have children's beds. Now that the children are older, children's beds are a bit crowded.
Therefore, he could only admit that it was a good thing that he was interrupted, "Go to sleep, the bed here is big enough."
"Thank you, Dad!" Ruanruan smiled sweetly.
"Here, give me the pillow." Nianmu held the soft pillow and noticed that she was carrying a pillow from home. Her heart tightened. She was not like this before. The older she grew, the more she felt safe.
Less and less.
Putting the pillow in the middle, she said: "It's getting late, Ruanhuan, go to sleep."
"Thank you, sister." Ruanruan took off her slippers, climbed onto the bed, and lay in the middle of the bed.
Nian Mu noticed that Mu Shaoling's face had darkened. She guessed it was because he couldn't hold her because he was sleeping softly in the middle.
Thinking of his domineering behavior just now, not allowing herself to refuse, but now she could only endure it in front of her children, she couldn't help but feel a little cool, but she was also reflecting on whether she had gone too far.
But Ruanruan is their child, and it is normal to do this, so she said: "You go to bed first, I will go see Zhan Zhan and Taotao."
After saying that, she walked out of the bedroom and closed the door.
Mu Shaoling looked soft.
Ruanruan was also looking at him and noticed that his face was not very good, so she asked: "Dad, did I do something wrong?"
"Nothing, just go to sleep." Mu Shaoling covered her with a quilt.
His daughter was still young, so he couldn't blame her for such a thing.
Ruanruan closed her eyes and was about to go to sleep when she heard Mu Shaoling say again: "Ruanruan, daddy wants to discuss something with you."
Ruanruan opened her eyes and looked at him, "Dad, tell me."
"Can you sleep next to me?" Mu Shaoling said. He wanted to fall asleep with Nian Mu in his arms.
"I understand, dad, you want to sleep with your sister, and I'll sleep next to you." Ruanruan smiled and sat up, picked up the pillow, and got out of bed.
"Dad, can I sleep here?" Ruanruan asked.
"Okay, go to sleep." Mu Shaoling waited for her to lie down and covered her with the quilt.
He thought that the bed was big enough and the child would not roll out of the bed even if he slept next to it, so he let Ruanrou sleep next to him.
Nianmu returned to the bedroom after making sure Zhan Zhan and Taotao had gone to bed.
As she approached the bed, she discovered that Ruanruan was sleeping beside the bed. She looked at Mu Shaoling who was on the other side of the bed and asked in a low voice: "Why is Ruanruan sleeping next to the bed?"
"She said she wanted to sleep next to the bed and didn't want to be pinched by anyone," Mu Shaoling said.
"But it's not safe." Nian Mu frowned.
"Ruanruan won't toss and turn when she sleeps. It's very quiet, and the bed is big enough so she won't fall off." Mu Shaoling said, getting out of the bed and making room for her to get into bed. "It's very late.
Go to bed early."
She protects Rourou, and he protects her.
"..." Nian Mu wondered if Mu Shaoling asked Soft to sleep next to the bed.
But the child was asleep, and she couldn't say anything now, lest she wake up. She thought about carrying her to the middle of the bed, and while thinking about it, she walked to the other side of the bed.
Mu Shaoling pulled her and said, "Sleep softly, if you move like this, she will wake up."
Nian Mu felt helpless, "It's too dangerous for her to sleep like this."
"Don't be afraid. If you hold her, she will be fine." Mu Shaoling said, if Ruan Ruan sleeps between them, who will he hold in his arms?
"But..." Nianmu thought to himself, if he accidentally let go, or if Ruanruan rolled over twice, wouldn't he roll under the bed?
"If it doesn't work, I'll put a quilt next to the bed so that she won't fall off." Mu Shaoling said, opened the closet, took out a spare thick quilt, folded it into a long strip and placed it beside the bed.
"That'll be all right," he said.
Seeing his persistence, Nianmu had no choice but to nod his head, get on the bed, and lie down.
Mu Shaoling lay down on the other side and turned off the light.
Ruanruan seemed to feel Nianmu lying down, and she leaned into Nianmu's arms.
Nianmu hugged her.
Ruanruan murmured, "Mom..."
Nian Mu was startled, pursed his lips, and silently covered the child with a quilt.
Mu Shaoling whispered in her ear: "Ruanruan used to like sleeping with her mother."
"Yeah." Nianmu felt pain in her heart. As a mother, she was too unqualified.
Mu Shaoling hugged her waist. Although the agitation in his heart had not stopped, he still gritted his teeth and stood firm. After all, he really couldn't do anything now that the child was here.
"Go to sleep, don't think too much." He whispered in her ear.
Nian Mu was slightly surprised. How did he know that he was thinking about her and the child...
The next day.
Mu Shaoling and Nian Mu were still sleeping. They slept very peacefully throughout the night. Even if Ruanyuan was beside them, it did not affect their sleep.
They didn't wake up until Taotao ran in.
Taotao saw Ruanruan lying on the bed and wondered: "Sister, why are you here?"
"It's nothing, I slept so comfortably." Ruanruan smiled at her younger brother.
"Oh, sister, you are in a strange environment and can't sleep, so you come here to be a light bulb, right?" Taotao saw it right away.
"How can I not? I miss my father and my sister." Ruanruan's little face was red and she didn't want her brother to think she was timid.
Taotao stuck out her tongue.
Mu Shaoling looked at his youngest son and asked with a straight face, "Have you washed your face?"
"Not yet..." Taotao raised her head and saw his serious face, kicked off her short legs and ran out, "I'm going to wash my face now."
Seeing this, Ruanruan also got out of bed and said to them: "Dad, sister, I'm going to wash my face first."
"Okay, let's go." Nianmu combed his messy hair with his hands, watched Ruanruan leave, and then got out of bed, "Mr. Mu, you go and wash up first. I'll tidy up the quilt."
"Yeah." Seeing that she was still calling him Mr. Mu, Mu Shaoling shook his head helplessly, got out of bed, and walked into the bathroom.
Nian Mu is really stubborn and won't call his name affectionately unless necessary.
He was left speechless and helpless.
Nianmu folded the quilt beside the bed.
It was really quiet to sleep softly, and the quilt next to me had no trace of being kicked.
She smiled, luckily it was soft, if Taotao let him sleep next to the bed, he might roll to the ground if he wasn't careful.
She knows all three children's sleeping habits.
After Nianmu folded the quilt, he put it back in the closet, then took out his clothes from the suitcase, planning to change into them after washing.
