Shen Jiazhou bent down and poked his cheek: "Can we sleep now?"
Can Can nodded: "It's okay now!"
Finally, I can sleep! His eyelids are already drooping.
Can Can watched as her uncle got into bed and slept on the innermost side, while she was surrounded by her aunt and uncle in the middle.
Yay! I'm even happier now.
Without them even having to urge her, Can Can happily lay down on her own.
He said, "Auntie, please turn off the light!"
Wen Shuqiao and Shen Jiazhou exchanged a smile. She turned over and turned off the main light, but turned on the desk lamp.
The room grew dark. After Wen Shuqiao lay down, she felt Cancan move closer to her and say, "Uncle, can you move a little closer to me? You need to be right next to me."
Shen Jiazhou moved a couple more times, and Cancan was sandwiched between the two of them like a filling.
Can Can said, "Now that's alright, I'm going to sleep."
Shen Jiazhou stretched out his long arm and hugged Wen Shuqiao over Cancan.
He said, "Sleep well, baby, goodnight."
Can Can closed her eyes and couldn't help but turn over, leaning against her uncle, her little hands wrapped around her aunt's arm, and her forehead resting on her aunt's shoulder.
I stayed in that position, closed my eyes, and started to feel sleepy.
The two adults didn't speak, they just looked at each other quietly.
After waiting for an unknown amount of time, Can Can suddenly mumbled again, "Uncle."
He remembered something.
Shen Jiazhou turned his gaze from Wen Shuqiao to Cancan and asked gently, "What's wrong?"
Can Can asked vaguely, "Will you always love me?"
"Yes." Shen Jiazhou kissed his cheek. "Uncle will always love you. Sleep well, baby."
Can Can was completely relieved, and her breathing became even a few seconds later.
Wen Shuqiao also lowered her head and kissed Cancan's forehead, then looked up and bumped into Shen Jiazhou.
They couldn't help but laugh and exchanged a goodnight kiss.
Shen Jiazhou sat up, gently moved Cancan to the inside, and then moved to the outermost position to lie down.
Wen Shuqiao is sleeping in the middle again now.
She whispered, "When I wake up in the morning, Can Can will throw another tantrum."
"It's okay." Shen Jiazhou kissed the corner of her mouth again. "I'll get up before he gets up."
Not giving the little brat a single chance!
He stretched out his long arm, turned off the desk lamp, and as usual, turned to the side, placing his arm around Wen Shuqiao's waist. Tonight, he even made a point of embracing Can Can.
A light kiss landed on her neck, and Wen Shuqiao heard Shen Jiazhou say, "Goodnight, wife."
She reached out and hugged Can Can, while her skin touched Shen Jia Zhou's arm.
Wen Shuqiao replied, "Goodnight, husband."
The person behind them chuckled and tightened their arms around each other. The family huddled together, just like every ordinary night, and drifted off to sleep together.
Outside the window, the night is still and quiet. After the spring equinox, the colors of the earth begin to change.
New green shoots sprouted from the bare branches, and roadside flowers also vied to emerge, all together welcoming a brand new, warm spring.
