Chapter 343 Second Brother's Triumph
Having agreed to sleep with her second brother, Mao Mao hugged her little pillow and said goodbye to her mother that night.
"Mother, you need to sleep well and get better." Mao Mao earnestly instructed, "Don't be afraid, I'll come back when you're better. Mother, if you sleep with the light on, the ghosts won't come to eat you."
As Xia Xiaoxiang responded, she wondered: Why does this sound so familiar?
It seems like those were the words she used to coax Mao Mao yesterday?
“I’m not like you. I’m not afraid of the dark or ghosts,” Xia Xiaoxiang said. “You go to sleep with other people every few days. I’m used to sleeping alone.”
Mao Mao hurriedly said, "Once Mother is better, I'll come back and sleep with her."
"Don't worry, I'm healthy, I'll be fine in a couple of days."
"Really, Mother?"
"Of course, I am your mother!"
Mao Mao was relieved.
She wanted to give her mother a goodnight kiss, but her mother was sick and Mao Mao couldn't get too close to her. So she could only hold onto the edge of the bed, pout, and send her mother a kiss from afar.
Xia Xiaoxiang pouted and replied, "Go find the Second Young Master! You should also go to sleep early and not disturb his rest."
"Oh, Mao Mao is gone."
Mao Mao, clutching her little pillow, skillfully went to find her second brother.
As a little girl who sleeps around the house, she knows her way around everyone's room.
"Knock knock"
Lou Heming was leaning against the bed, flipping through a book, when he heard someone knocking on the door. Then, he heard a little child's voice calling out, "Brother!"
He got up in response and went to open the door. He saw his little sister standing outside, hugging a fluffy, soft pillow, looking up at him: "Brother, Mao Mao is here."
"Mao Mao is here." Lou Heming smiled and saw that her little feet were bare, even though she was wearing slippers. He quickly bent down, picked her up, and closed the door behind him.
It's getting cold; even indoors it's chilly.
Lou Heming tucked his younger sister into the warm quilt he had just laid down, and then lay down himself. As soon as he lay down, a warm little body snuggled up to him, like a soft, fluffy little mochi, leaning against him as if it had no bones.
Lou Heming smiled, picked up the book he had been flipping through from the bedside table, and skillfully coaxed his younger sister, "How about your brother tells Mao Mao a bedtime story?"
Okay~
This was a storybook I'd never heard before. Although it wasn't Mao Mao's story, Mao Mao still listened with great interest.
After listening to the short story, she was still a little unsatisfied, and looked at her brother with her big, bright eyes full of anticipation.
Lou Heming closed the book and took off his glasses. "That's all for today, Mao Mao. You should go to sleep. You need to get some rest."
"One." Mao Mao held up a short finger, her eyes sparkling as she looked at him: "Brother, Mao Mao wants to hear another story, just one."
"Hmm... I'll tell you more tomorrow."
"tomorrow?"
"Yes, tomorrow." Lou Heming stroked her soft hair and said gently, "Mao Mao will sleep with her brother every day for the next few days, so there will be plenty of time. I will continue to tell you the rest of the story tomorrow."
Mao Mao is a very easy little girl to coax. When she heard that there would be more tomorrow, she obediently pulled her little hands back under the blanket.
Her little hands gripped the edge of the blanket, covering herself from neck to toes, wrapping herself up tightly, leaving only her chubby little face showing: "Goodnight, brother."
"Okay, goodnight, Mao Mao."
"Brother, another goodnight kiss."
Lou Heming chuckled, lowered his head and kissed her soft cheek, and soon left a wet, milky kiss on his own face as well.
Lou Heming turned off the light, held his soft little sister, and fell asleep contentedly.
the next day.
His biological clock makes him wake up on time.
The first thing I saw when I opened my eyes was my little sister's adorable and sweet sleeping face, like a little angel. Her little hands were clutching a corner of his clothes, her face was rosy, and her thick eyelashes cast shadows like little fans.
Before he could even fully wake up, he saw his adorable younger sister, and Lou Heming couldn't help but smile.
Seeing such a beautiful scene as soon as he opened his eyes made him feel energetic and capable of performing eight surgeries in one go.
If he could, he really wanted to sleep with his sister until she naturally woke up.
But no, he has a morning shift.
Lou Heming gazed longingly at his sister's adorable sleeping face for a while. When it was almost time, he carefully pulled the corner of his clothes from Mao Mao's hand.
He reached for his glasses on the bedside table, put them on, and quietly got out of bed.
Perhaps it was the cold wind that crept in when he lifted the covers, but as he got out of bed, Mao Mao also woke up groggily.
"Brother?" Mao Mao rubbed her eyes and got up.
She had just crawled out of bed when she was startled by the cold air outside. Her small body froze in place, and even her eyes, which she couldn't open, were frozen shut.
"Mao Mao, you can continue sleeping." Lou Heming quickly said, "Brother has to go to work."
Even though Mao Mao was so sleepy she could barely open her eyes, she insisted on getting up: "...Mao Mao is going to kindergarten."
Lou Heming was helpless.
Even when Ah Sui was a child, he didn't love going to school this much.
"Okay, brother goes to work, and Mao Mao goes to kindergarten."
Lou Heming carried her out of bed, dressed her in thick clothes, and even combed her hair.
Although he doesn't read fashion magazines, he has a pair of skillful hands that are good at performing surgery. He can comb Mao Mao's soft, messy hair into neat little buns.
Lou Heming carried his younger sister downstairs.
It was cold, so everyone started to stay in bed longer. There weren't many people at the breakfast table. He placed Mao Mao in Lou Hongjian's empty seat and got the same breakfast for himself and his sister.
"Is Mao Mao going to kindergarten?" Lou Fengju said, "Then I'll take Mao Mao to school later."
Lou Heming declined, "No need, brother, I'll take Mao Mao."
Lou Fengju raised an eyebrow: "I remember, it wasn't you who took Mao Mao to school today?"
Lou Yansui nodded from the side: "It should be Third Brother's turn."
"That……"
"Ah Hong is sick." Lou Heming adjusted his glasses and said calmly, "Big brother, Dad, and Ah Sui, you are all still sick. I'm the only one in the family who is healthy, so I have to take Mao Mao to school."
Everyone: "..."
"Looks like Mao Mao will be riding in my car for the next while." Lou Heming slowly cut the sausage on the plate into several pieces, giving half to his sister next to him. His eyes behind his gold-rimmed glasses smiled slightly: "I will take responsibility for you, don't be shy."
Everyone: "..."
They weren't going to be polite at all!
