"Because your mommy is not feeling well and is afraid of infecting you, that's why she went to another bedroom with daddy to sleep for the night. Tomorrow, when she is all right, she will accompany you and Chiahao. Don't be afraid, it's not like grandma isn't with you. Have you forgotten that when you and Chiahao went to the Xian Residence, you both liked to pester grandma?"
With a sob, Xian An Na asked, "Why is mommy sick?"
"Being sick means being sick. Be more obedient. Grandma will carry you back to bed."
"Will mommy die of illness?"
Jiang Ruolan: "…"
"No, no, don't talk nonsense. It's just a small cold."
"What's a cold?" Xian An Na stopped crying. Her voice suddenly sounded serious.
Zhan An laughed and said patiently, "Grandmother will carry you to your bedroom. If you can't sleep, grandma will tell you about the pathology. You'll know when you're older. The cold is not serious, just like how you had a fever a few months ago. It's not very comfortable, but you won't die, so don't worry, be good."
"Grandma, mommy said that you are daddy's mother. Why don't you sleep with daddy? If you come and accompany me and big brother, won't daddy cry?"
Xian Zihao: "…"
Zhan An's answer could no longer be heard as the bedroom door closed again. In the small bedroom, Jiang Ruolan had three black lines on her forehead as she looked at Xian Zihao, who also had a smile on his face because of An Na's teasing words.
Jiang Ruolan smiled and then said, "Looks like we can't sleep peacefully. An Na and Chiahao are usually too attached to me. If mom wasn't here, we definitely wouldn't be able to sleep soundly tonight."
Xian Zihao, on the other hand, just laughed softly. He kissed her lips, raised his eyebrows, and said in a low voice, "From tomorrow onwards, I must teach them both a good lesson. If they always come running over when their mommy and daddy are asleep, I, as their father, will punish them."
"What's wrong with you?" Jiang Ruolan had a funny expression on her face.
The corner of Xian Zihao's mouth curled up as his gaze darkened. "What do you think?"
As he said this, he suddenly straightened his back and moved in again.
"Ah …" Jiang Ruolan didn't expect Xian Zihao to attack her out of sudden. She almost cried out in surprise. She hurriedly bit her lips and resentfully stared at him. "An Na hasn't fallen asleep yet. If she hears the sound, she'll definitely come here again."
The soundproofing between this room and the master bedroom was extremely good. It was only because she had kids here, so she kept thinking about it in her heart, afraid that two little things would suddenly appear.
Jiang Ruolan kept holding back and bit her lips, refusing to make a sound.
Seeing that, Xian Zihao's gaze darkened. He lifted her legs, bent down to kiss her ear, then turned her head to the side and deliberately bit her neck, making it impossible for Jiang Ruolan to suppress her moan.
"Zi..Zihao…Ngg…"
As she shouted, his time was up. At the peak, Xian Zihao hit her again and again. Jiang Ruolan couldn't take it anymore and turn around. She bit her pillow and started to tremble.

Jiang Ruolan didn't know when she fell asleep, but one of the windows in the small bedroom was open. The night wind blew hard, carrying a slight scent of damp rain and causing the rooms little by little to feel hot and clogged.
The room was suddenly too stuffy. Jiang Ruolan was half asleep and leaned against the warm embrace. She held tightly onto the body, unwilling to let go.
Xian Zihao's soft voice entered her ear. It sounded like he was calling her in a low voice, but it also sounded like he was calming her down. Since she was unable to answer him, she could only lean her head against his chest.
Xian Zihao was wiping Jiang Ruolan's body with a wet towel, causing her body, which had been soaked by the sweats, to feel better.
Jiang Ruolan turned her body to the side and her eyebrows were furrowed, but she still didn't open her eyes.
Xian Zihao slowly parted her legs and slowly rubbed the wet towel on her leg. Although it was so comfortable that she wouldn't resist, when the wet towel scrubbed the forbidden place for her, she couldn't stand it and shiver. She folded her legs together and went back to pretending to sleep.
Jiang Ruolan felt her body changed. She didn't want to open her eyes because she was so embarrassed. She had no choice but to lie on her side with one arm across her breasts. She could sense Xian Zihao was watching her from the side.
After enduring for a long time, her entire body couldn't help but turn red from embarrassment. Xian Zihao's finger followed that faint red glow all the way up, caressing her neck and lips.
He leaned over and carefully gazed at her sleeping face. His warm lips lightly pressed against her cheek. "Are you tired?"
"Yes."
"How long will you pretend to sleep?" Xian Zihao smiled and kissed her lips. His eyes were soft and affectionate.
"You! How am I supposed to sleep if you keep bothering me!" Jiang Ruolan's face was flushed as she opened her eyes and looked down at the wet towel in his hand.
Xian Zihao had just helped her clean the forbidden area. It wasn't as if she didn't feel anything, so how could she fall asleep?
Xian Zihao just chuckled softly. "My little hedgehog is becoming more and more sensitive. Is this a good thing or a bad thing?"
"You clearly did it on purpose!" Jiang Ruolan immediately lifted her hand and struck him with it. Before she could finish her sentence, her mouth was suddenly sealed by him.
"Next time, don't try to seduce your husband when you have a fever. You're the one who started it, so bear with it."

"Zihao, are you awake?"
Around 6:30 in the morning, Zhan An knocked on the bedroom door lightly. It seemed like she had an urgent matter to discuss, but at the same time, it was as if she couldn't bear to disturb their sleep, so the sound of knocking was very soft.
"I'm awake. What's the matter?" Xian Zihao opened his eyes as soon as he heard the knock on the door. He gently moved Jiang Ruolan's head from his chest to the pillow next to him.
He then got up and opened the bedroom door.
Zhan An glanced at him from behind the door, then looked back inside and whispered, "Is Ruolan still sleeping?"
"Yes, she caught a cold last night, so I'll let her sleep for a while today. If there's anything the kids need, I'll have to trouble you to handle it, mom." Xian Zihao's voice was also lowered. It was obvious that he didn't want to wake the sleeping person on the bed.
"Fine, let her sleep then. Chiahao and An Na had eaten some rice. I heated the soup I brought with me last night and let them eat some too. I didn't expect those two kids to wake up early."
"Chiahao and An Na are very sensible children and knew that their mother was sick, so they obediently didn't come over to make a ruckus. Both of them just obediently played on their bed." Zhan An was very pleased before she sighed softly.
"Sigh, it's a pity that in these two years, although the Old Man has been looking forward to meeting his great-grandchildren, he hasn't seen them often. But when Yijun's mother died because of the Xian Family, even if there was no enmity between them anymore, the grudge and the past mistake still couldn't be forgotten. Ruolan was able to put this matter aside and occasionally bring the children back to the family, but the Old Man has always wanted the two children to be in front of him."
Zhan An sighed again and continued to speak softly, "Let's not talk about this first, I just heard that the Old Man had heard about Cui Luixian from somewhere. Sigh, Luixian really did make us unhappy, but she has been living a tough life now. The people she hid from never stopped looking for her. The Old Man is getting older and no matter how much he hated her, he can't bear to see the child he raised with his hands fall to such a state. The Old Man has said since Cui Luixian could no longer live in the Xian Family, he should at least give her a place to stay."
"Since the grandpa has made such a decision, we cannot say that he is right, nor can we say that he is wrong. He is indeed getting older. As long as Cui Luixian doesn't come and provoke Ruolan again, her life will have no effect and nothing to do with us." Xian Zihao said indifferently. He didn't really care about Cui Luixian's problems.
"Mom knows that none of you want to talk about her, but the Old Man just called and said that Cui Luixian is currently living in a small warehouse on the west side and is not doing well. He told the Cui Family to go pick her up, but she refused to leave no matter what."
Xian Zihao didn't say anything. He obviously disagreed with the Old Man's decision, however, since it was rare for the Old Man to open his mouth and request something, it didn't seem right for them to reject his (Old Man) wishes
