Jian Dan looked at Qian Leleâs reaction, the corners of her mouth curling into a sweet smileâ¦
âChu Jian, hurry back to your own room and go to sleep!â Chu Liyuan looked at Qian Lele, directly calling out Leleâs full name.
âUncle, what are you doing? Youâre going to scare Lele like this!â Jian Dan said as she stroked Leleâs little head.
âDoes he look scared to you?â Chu Liyuanâs eyes never left Lele as he spoke.
Upon hearing Chu Liyuanâs words, Lele burrowed deeper into Jian Danâs embrace, showing a stubborn refusal to let go, and in Jian Danâs ear, he softly called âMommy~ Mommy~â
His soft and sticky voice melted Jian Danâs heart on the spot.
âUncle, why donât you let Lele sleep with us tonight?â Jian Dan asked Chu Liyuan, who was still wearing a stern face, in a tentative voice.
âImpossible!â Chu Liyuan had never expected that there would be a third party at home.
âUncle, Lele is still so young. He must have missed me a lot after not seeing me for so many days, thatâs why heâs clinging to me like this!â
âKuaikuai is about his age; why donât you see Kuaikuai clinging to you like this?â
âUncle, you wouldnât know about this, but generally, little boys tend to cling to their moms more!â
âIs there any scientific basis for that? How come I donât see Jian Xiaokai acting like that?â
It seemed like arguing with uncle was getting nowhere; there was no choice but toâ¦
âUncle, are you really not going to let Lele sleep here?â
âNot allowed!â He answered without hesitation.
âWell, no helping it then.â Saying so, Jian Dan picked up Lele from the bed, put on her shoes, and left the master bedroom.
Chu Liyuan thought Chu Jian was heeding his words and was going to take Lele back to his room, a faint smile tugging at his lips.
But when Chu Jian didnât return after a long wait, he couldnât lie still any longer and went straight to Lele and Kuaikuaiâs room.
Upon entering, he discovered Chu Jian lying in Leleâs bed, holding Lele in her armsâ¦
âChu Jian, youâ¦â
âUncle, didnât you say that Lele couldnât sleep in our room? So, I just had to come to Leleâs room and accompany him to sleep, right?â
After hearing Jian Danâs words, Chu Liyuanâs forehead instantly lined with countless black streaks.
That wasnât what he meant at all!
âUncle, donât you have to go to work tomorrow? Hurry back and sleep! Iâm going to sleep too!â Jian Dan said slowly, looking at uncle.
Chu Liyuan closed his eyes and took a deep breath, walked over to the bed, and directly hoisted Jian Dan, who was still holding Lele, across his arms. âUncle, what are you doing?â Jian Dan asked knowingly.
âWhat do you think?â How could Chu Liyuan possibly let Chu Jian sleep there?
His lass had to sleep with him!
So, he had to make a concession too and let this little guy join them.
A trace of smugness appeared on Jian Danâs face!
Chu Liyuan could naturally see that Chu Jian was doing this on purpose, just to make him back down!
But there was no helping it; who made him utterly under the control of this lass?
Back in the master bedroom, Chu Liyuan gently set Jian Dan down on the bed.
Jian Dan initially wanted Lele to sleep between the two of them, but Chu Liyuan wouldnât have any of it. âChu Jian, allowing him here is already my bottom line!â How could he possibly allow him to come between them?
âBut what if Lele falls off the bed in the middle of the night?â Jian Dan voiced her worries.
Chu Liyuan didnât say a word, took out a remote control, and pressed it; a rail rose on one side of the bed.
Jian Danâs surprise was so great her mouth could fit an egg at the moment the rail rose.
What kind of trick was this?
When did their bed come with such a mechanism, and she knew nothing about it?
âUncle, when did you get this?â
âChu Jian, many times life is like managing a company. It requires proper resource allocation, cost-effectiveness, and thorough preparatory work and planning for more efficient execution.
However, many things can deviate from the plan, like this unexpected situation!â The uncle looked at the little one on the bed. âSo every possibility has to be considered, like this. This is called risk management!â
Jian Dan half-understood as she listened to uncle speak about things related to management studies.
âIt sounds pretty impressive!â No wonder uncle could manage such a large conglomerate; with everything anticipated in advance, how could he not succeed?
