After dinner, Enoch refused to let Xia Ning go. Gao Wanhua asked him to go to bed, but he disagreed.

“I want to sleep with Mummy.” Lying p.r.o.ne on Xia Ning, Enoch pouted at Gao Wanhua and Qiao Yu as if he was wronged.

Seeing Enoch clinging onto Xia Ning like an octopus, Qiao Yu frowned, “Get off your mother.”

“No, Mummy is mine!” Enoch glared at Qiao Yu and said angrily, “Tonight, it is my turn to sleep with Mummy. Daddy, you go to sleep with Grandma.”

Qiao Yu glanced at Enoch, “Do you think I'm fond of pestering my mother like you?”

Enoch snorted unhappily and looked at Qiao Yu, “Because Grandma dislikes you, so she doesn't want you. Mummy likes me, she must want me.” Then he looked at Xia Ning, blinking his lovely big eyes, “Mummy, I want to sleep with you.”

Xia Ning was more than happy to see her son sticking to her like this. She smiled at him, “Okay.”

“I know Mummy likes me most.” Enoch laughed and sprawled into Xia Ning's arms again.

Xia Ning could only shake her head but did not hide her smile.

When Qiao Yu saw that Xia Ning was happy, his expression spontaneously softened. Qiao Yu ignored Enoch's remark that Mummy liked him most. Since the child belonged to them both, Xia Ning liking the child meant that she liked Qiao Yu too.

But she smiled much less five years ago. Sometimes, he looked at her only to find that she seemed so far from him. If those things did not happen at that time, they must have been the happiest family.

After playing for a while, Enoch fell asleep in Xia Ning's arms. Qiao Yu directly laid him onto the large bed in the main bedroom and let him sleep between Qiao Yu and Xia Ning.

Xia Ning sat beside the window and watched Enoch as he slept, her heart growing tender.

“He looks a little bit like me.” Xia Ning said suddenly.

Qiao Yu walked near Xia Ning to follow her gaze with his eyes. He nodded, “His eyes look like yours, and his nose.”

“Thank you, Qiao Yu.” Xia Ning whispered. She was grateful to him for letting her see such a healthy, energetic child.

His hand fell on her shoulder, he whispered in her ears softly, “I should thank you.” If she did not insist on giving birth to the child at her own risk, everything would be futile today. It would even be hard for him to get her back.

Xia Ning understood Qiao Yu. Her eyes falling, she said nothing. It seems that once they mention the child, they could not avoid the past.

“Have you seen the short message I sent you today?” Qiao Yu's low voice came behind her.

Xia Ning came to herself and gazed at him in a daze as if she did not know what he was talking about.

Qiao Yu frowned slightly, “Haven't you seen it?”

Xia Ning glanced at her cell phone on the bedside. A short message?! She shook her head, “I did not look at the cell phone. What's the matter?”

“It's nothing.” Qiao Yu replied. He glanced at Xia Ning and coughed, “I'm going to take a bath first.”

“Ok.” Xia Ning nodded.

Qiao Yu turned to go to the bathroom. Xia Ning watched his back, becoming keenly aware that he was expecting something. She picked up her cell phone to look at the last message she had already read in the message box. Her eyes grew dim.

In the bathroom, Qiao Yu looked at himself in the mirror and found it amusing. When did he like romance like those young people?

Yes, he also wanted to hear that she missed him.

It did not matter that she hadn't seen it. She would see it sooner or later.

When Qiao Yu came out, Xia Ning had already laid down beside Enoch and fallen asleep.

Qiao Yu walked near her to look at her quiet face as she slept. He felt a bit disappointed. He had been holding expectations for a long time but she had fallen asleep. He bent down to kiss her forehead, turned to go back to his side of the bed and switched off the light to sleep.

The room became black and silent, n.o.body could see the originally closed eyes tremble in the darkness.
