"Okay, Dad!"
The three siblings responded in unison.
The next second—
The little dumpling finally realized something was wrong.
She and her brothers slept in the same room with their mother last night, so why was she woken up by her father from another room just now?
So, after she and her brother fell asleep, her wicked father carried her to the next bedroom?!
Lu Xiaoning bit her lip and thought for a moment, then reached out and tugged at Lu Lingxiao's clothes. Remembering what her father had said about not disturbing her mother, she lowered her voice as she spoke.
"Dad, you're the best! Can you let me sleep in the same room with you tonight?"
She said in a soft, sweet voice, her dark eyes darting around, "I can sleep in the middle, and you and Mommy can sleep on either side, so you can both hold Ningning while you sleep!"
“Our Ningning is a big girl now, she needs to learn to sleep by herself.”
No matter how much Lu Lingxiao loved his daughter, he was determined not to make any concessions in this regard.
He rubbed Ningning's little head, then looked at Zirui and Ziheng and asked them softly, "Ningning, do you and your brother want a sister?"
"Ah? Is it a sister who looks as cute as Ningning?"
"right!"
Lu Lingxiao was seriously trying to fool the three little ones.
"think!"
The three siblings nodded in unison, their big, dark eyes instantly filling with anticipation and joy at the thought of their cute and well-behaved little sister.
Then, Lu Zirui immediately added, "I want a chubby, milky little sister!"
Lu Lingxiao's lips curled up slightly, and then he continued to coax her, "Okay! Since you both want a little sister, then starting tonight, you must sleep well by yourselves and not go around pestering your mother. Next year, you'll have a little sister to hold."
After all these words, there was no trace of guilt at all.
"Okay, alright!"
When Lu Xiaoning, Lu Ziheng and Lu Zirui heard that they could not sleep with their mother at night, they frowned and hesitated for a while. In the end, the chubby sister got the upper hand and nodded in agreement.
The three little ones didn’t know at this time that they were deceived by their father. Therefore, in the following days, they looked forward to their sister being born almost every day. Then, they could hold their soft and sweet little sister in their arms!
After taking care of the three children, Lu Lingxiao put on his military cap and went out, happily heading to the army for morning exercises.
After finishing his morning exercise, Lu Lingxiao headed straight for the office.
As soon as he arrived at the office, he didn't even have time to rest or drink some water to relax. He picked up the phone and dialed the landline of the Xie family in Beijing.
The call was answered by the butler Zhongbo.
Upon hearing the familiar voice, Lu Lingxiao's expression softened considerably. "Uncle Zhong, it's me, Lingxiao. Is the old man home?"
"Master Ling Xiao? Master, you haven't called me in a while. Are you all right in Jincheng? Also, did that family go to the army to disturb you?"
When Zhongbo heard that the call was from Lu Lingxiao, he was so happy that his eyes narrowed, and his voice was full of joy and excitement.
"I'm fine! Uncle Zhong, don't worry, they can't hurt me." Lu Lingxiao answered the other party patiently, and a warm light flashed in his cold phoenix eyes. Then he asked again, "Uncle Zhong, is the old man home?"
If he's not there, then he'll have to go to the army and ask his godfather for help.
Zhongbo hurriedly said, "At home! At home! Young Master, please wait a moment, I'll go get the old chief to answer the phone!"
After Zhongbo finished speaking, he hurriedly put the microphone aside and then walked quickly towards the living room, shouting excitedly as he went.
"Old Chief, Young Master Ling Xiao is calling!"
When Mr. Xie suddenly heard Uncle Zhong mention Lu Lingxiao's name, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he immediately looked up at Uncle Zhong and asked hurriedly, "Old Zhong, who did you say called?"
"You heard it right, it's the Young Master Ling Xiao you talk about every day!" Zhong Bo said happily.
Grandpa Xie was secretly delighted, but he cursed aloud, "That brat finally deigned to call his godfather? Humph! This time, I'm going to give him a good scolding, so he won't forget about us old men when he's busy..."
Before he finished speaking, he had already walked to where the phone was and quickly picked up the receiver.
"Hey, brat, did Uncle Zhong tell me you were looking for me?"
He was obviously very excited and missed Lu Lingxiao so much, but he was suppressed by the old man. He pretended to be angry and spoke aggressively, but in fact he just wanted to hear Lu Lingxiao call him grandpa to comfort him.
Lu Lingxiao's lips twitched slightly. As Grandpa Xie had hoped, he called him "Grandpa," and asked, "Grandpa, how are you feeling?"
"Hey! Good, good, good! I'm in good health! Before I see you and Junfei each get married and start a family, I, an old man, will take good care of my health!"
Mr. Xie was suddenly very excited, with a happy and excited smile on his face and eyes, and the corners of his mouth were stretched to the back of his head.
Although he and Lu Lingxiao were not related by blood, he truly regarded Lu Lingxiao as his own grandson, just like Xie Junfei, and both were his proud grandsons!
However, after graduating from the military academy, Ling Xiao insisted on taking up a post in the distant Jincheng Military Region, which was almost 2,000 kilometers away from the capital. In addition, the relationship between Lu Lingxiao and old man Huo was particularly strained, so he had not returned to the capital for many years.
Thinking of this, Old Master Xie asked him directly, "You brat, when do you plan to come back to visit this old man? Do you have to wait until we old men kick the bucket before you're willing to come back?"
