Chapter 336 – How about... how about I sleep with Mommy and Daddy can go sleep with his mommy (2)
Ye Zhen read a little after dinner, and Lu Beichuan only returned home after 8 o’clock.
Perhaps because Old Master Lu had passed away not too long ago, people at the office were still not comfortable. Lu Beichuan needed to spend a lot of time and effort in stabilizing the situation at work. It was only normal that he would be gone for long hours every day.
All of his weariness, however, dissipated the moment he saw Ye Zhen.
“What are you looking at?”
“A book on being a producer...”
Lu Beichuan hugged her from behind and rested his chin on her shoulder. Enveloped by the scent from her hair, he read a good half of the page with Ye Zhen.
“You’ve been running around all day long. Go take a shower quickly.” Ye Zhen moved her shoulder a little, closed the book, and urged him.
Lu Beichuan took a deep breath, put down the documents that he had brought back from work, took off his jacket, and walked into the bathroom.
When Lu Beichuan came out of the bathroom, he saw Zhouzhou laying in bed with his arms around his mother, listening to Ye Zhen reading him a story.
“The brave knight finally defeated the monster and saved the princess. The two of them lived happily ever after.”
Zhouzhou looked up at Ye Zhen. “Happy like Daddy and Mommy?”
Ye Zhen, smiling, pinched Zhouzhou on his fair and soft cheek, “Yup. And they even had a little Zhouzhou.”
“Then Zhouzhou wants to become a knight too so he can save a princess then live a happy life!”
Ye Zhen closed up the story book. “Okay, if you want to be the knight who will save the princess, you need to go to bed early. Go back to your bedroom now.”
Zhouzhou refused to let go of Ye Zhen. He said coquettishly to her, “One more story, Mom. One more, pleeeeease.”
“Didn’t we say that’s the last one already? Are you going back on your words?”
Zhouzhou smiled and nuzzled Ye Zhen. “Not going back on my words. I want to sleep with Mommy today, can I, please?”
Lu Beichuan wouldn’t have any more of this by this point. He walked out, took the book from Ye Zhen, and put it aside. Looking at Zhouzhou, he said, “Stand up, Lu Zhifei.”
Lu Zhifei had always been fearful of Lu Beichuan’s solemness and would not act as unrestrained as he was in front of Ye Zhen. Pouting, he let go of Ye Zhen’s waist and stood up docilely.
“Tell me, how old are you now?”
Zhouzhou stuck out two fingers. “I am two years old.”
Lu Beichuan corrected him, “Two-and-a-half, turning three in just two more months, do you know that? Aren’t you ashamed to still want to sleep with your Mom?”
Zhouzhou did not understand why that was so shameful. “But... I just want to sleep with Mommy. Daddy is much older but you sleep with Mommy too. How about... how about I sleep with Mommy and Daddy can go sleep with his mommy.”
Zhouzhou felt that his suggestion was very reasonable. He even felt that his daddy would embrace that idea. After all, sleeping with one’s mother was a very happy event.
Ye Zhen was taken aback a little and finally laughed so hard that she rolled in bed. Pulling Zhouzhou into her arms, she said, “You little brat...”
Lu Beichuan, too, was looking at Zhouzhou helplessly, “Who taught you to say that?”
Zhouzhou looked at his daddy innocently. “Does Daddy not like sleeping with his mommy? Zhouzhou is so happy when he gets to sleep with Mommy!”
Ye Zhen laughed so hard that she was shaking. Zhouzhou, too, giggled with her and asked her for more stories.
Lu Beichuan really didn’t know what else to say.
Walking back to his desk, Lu Beichuan saw that his stack of documents that had been placed there neatly was a bit ruffled now. He flipped through it quickly and noticed a few missing pages.
He looked for a bit and found a paper airplane in the corner. Frowning slightly, he seemed to have figured it out.
Picking up the paper plane and walking over to the bed, he asked, “Did you make this?”
Zhouzhou wanted to take it from him when he saw it, and Lu Beichuan did not stop him.
