Daddy and Mommy are a couple and have a baby Xiaobao, so why don’t brother and sister-in-law, who are also a couple, have a baby?
Not only was Lu Xiaobao clutching Lu Nanchen’s clothes with his chubby little hands, but he also shook a few times, his little head lifted to look at Lu Nanchen, his big eyes staring straight at him, eyebrows furrowed, his mouth moist and glossy from saliva, and his little head full of confusion.
Why is that?
"Cough cough." Yu Ting, who was drinking water nearby and watching, was startled by Lu Xiaobao’s sudden words, and coughed a few times while leaning on the cabinet.
So, he was looking for a baby at home just now...
Having a child was something Yu Ting and Lu Nanchen hadn’t thought of at all. After the original host fell out of love with Lu Nanchen and fancied Shen Sheng, they both lost interest. Noticing that the original host had no such intention, Lu Nanchen just went along with it.
On the night of their wedding, because of the original host’s pretentious words: "I’m afraid of pain,"
Lu Nanchen didn’t even touch her, and they both slept separately, one on the left and one on the right, passing the night peacefully.
Lu Nanchen, who was loading vegetables into the refrigerator, paused, glancing at Yu Ting, who was choking on her water next to him, then at the little bean.
The little bean was still fiddling with the corner of his clothes.
Then, placing a hand lightly on the back of Lu Xiaobao’s head, Lu Nanchen explained calmly, "You need to be older to have a baby."
After some thought, Lu Nanchen felt it would be hard for him to understand whether he explained it from a physiological or medical perspective, so he simply said something else.
At Lu Nanchen’s words, Lu Xiaobao seemed dumbfounded for a minute or two before understanding.
"Right, Daddy was so old before he had me, brother is still young, so there’s no baby yet."
Suddenly clear-minded, Lu Xiaobao pondered for a moment, feeling more and more correct the more he thought.
"And when brother gets old, he will have a baby. By then, Xiaobao will be grown up, and can accompany him just like you, brother! Hehe."
As he finished, the little bean laughed heartily.
Lu Nanchen didn’t elaborate on this issue. His gaze moved from Lu Xiaobao up to Yu Ting at his side, giving her a brief glance before continuing to load the vegetables into the fridge.
"Lu Xiaobao, what do you want to eat tonight?"
"I want to eat the big crabs you made for me before!" The little bean said, lying on the kitchen table, his hands resting on the surface.
"Okay."
After answering, Lu Nanchen tied on his apron, ready to cook.
Now that there were more people having dinner, Lu Nanchen took a few more crabs out to clean.
With nothing else to do, Yu Ting went into the kitchen, walked over to Lu Nanchen, and offered to help as she looked at the crabs.
After all, hadn’t she gone to New Oriental Cooking School for two years strictly for this?
Yu Ting decided to reprise her role, assisting Lu Nanchen.
While Lu Nanchen was washing the crabs, he looked at Yu Ting, who had moved closer and was watching the crabs in the sink. Her face was peaceful, a few strands of hair had fallen to the side of her ear due to her downward gaze. Lu Nanchen hummed in acknowledgment.
The two people busily worked together in the kitchen. The remaining bits of the evening glow were reflected onto their clothes. The dinner was ready in a little over half an hour. From the initial cooking to the final task of peeling shrimp for both of them, it was all done by Lu Nanchen.
Now, Lu Xiaobao sat at the dining table, his hands greasy from eating, his face full of joy, and his smile revealing food pieces between his teeth. His clear and bright eyes looked at Lu Nanchen and Yu Ting, then he contentedly offered.
"Tonight, I want to sleep between brother and sister-in-law."
