Chapter 0524: A Child's Honest Words
Rebirth of a Perfect Future · 第0524章 童言无忌
Because it was summer and there was no air conditioning in the house, Zhao Fusheng habitually left the door open when he slept. Of course, the most important reason was that in the whole house, besides himself, there was only his girlfriend Fan Baobao and his sister-in-law Fan Beibei, so Zhao Fusheng didn't need to worry about anything.
This was only natural. If he were alone, he might have been more cautious, but when surrounded by family, he naturally let down his guard.
Just as Zhao Fusheng was falling asleep, a small figure walked in through the doorway.
"Brother..."
A childish voice sounded, and Zhao Fusheng immediately sat up, looking in surprise at Fan Beibei standing by his bed: "Why are you here?"
Zhao Fusheng was completely baffled. Hadn't Fan Baobao said the girl was asleep?
"I want to sleep with brother." Fan Beibei said to Zhao Fusheng with sleepy eyes, wearing a princess nightgown. The girl was still half-asleep, just having woken up and had a sudden whim.
Zhao Fusheng asked helplessly: "Where's your sister?"
"Sister is grinding her teeth..." Fan Beibei replied.
Zhao Fusheng burst out laughing. Fan Baobao did have this problem—if she was too tired, she would snore and grind her teeth when sleeping. This was extremely inconsistent with her image, but there was no helping it. Everyone had some little quirks. Except for those close to her, no one knew that Fan Baobao had such a habit.
"Alright, alright, then you can sleep with brother." Zhao Fusheng chuckled, bent down to pick up Fan Beibei, and placed her on his bed.
"Mm." The little girl was also sleepy. She tilted her head, leaning on Zhao Fusheng's shoulder, holding his arm with one hand, and soon fell asleep again.
Zhao Fusheng could finally sleep peacefully. The two figures, one big and one small, lay side by side on the bed, fast asleep...
...
...
When Fan Baobao opened her eyes again, she instinctively reached out to the side, because she clearly remembered that her sister was there.
But the next moment, she froze.
Because she grabbed nothing!
"Beibei, sister..." Before she could finish, Fan Baobao's gaze fell on the empty spot, and she was dumbfounded.
"Where is she?"
Fan Baobao sat up, not caring that she was exposed, and looked around left and right. But finding no trace of her sister, she immediately panicked.
Her sister was only four years old. What if something happened...
Before that thought could finish, she suddenly remembered that they weren't at home. She, Fan Beibei, and Zhao Fusheng were staying in this villa.
Jumping out of bed, Fan Baobao threw on a shirt and hurried upstairs toward Zhao Fusheng's room.
Woman's intuition told her that she would likely find an answer there.
As it turned out, sometimes a woman's intuition was quite useful.
Standing at the door, looking at the two figures, one big and one small, sleeping soundly and snuggled together on the bed, Fan Baobao was both amused and exasperated.
As if hearing Fan Baobao's footsteps upstairs, Zhao Fusheng and Fan Beibei opened their eyes almost simultaneously.
"Sister, mm, I still want to sleep..." The little girl turned over, ignoring her older sister, and continued sleeping while holding Zhao Fusheng's arm.
Zhao Fusheng showed a faint smile: "You're awake?"
"Mm, and I was scared half to death when I woke up." Fan Baobao said irritably. She had really been startled—losing her sister the moment she opened her eyes. It was already good that she hadn't screamed.
"She came over in the middle of the night and insisted on sleeping with me." Zhao Fusheng explained how Fan Beibei ended up in his bed, then smiled at Fan Baobao: "Looks like you were really too tired yesterday."
"Huh?"
Mentioning yesterday, Fan Baobao's expression turned a bit strange. After all, the matter of taking off her clothes was quite embarrassing for her. Even though it was Zhao Fusheng, she still felt awkward.
But Zhao Fusheng seemed to know that Fan Baobao was thin-skinned, so he didn't bring it up. Instead, he smiled and said: "Do you want to lie down too?"
"I'm not as lazy as you two." Fan Baobao shot Zhao Fusheng a glance: "You keep lying with Beibei. I'll go cook some porridge or something."
She remembered seeing rice and such in the fridge yesterday, so she planned to make breakfast.
"Go ahead. I'll stay with the girl a bit longer." Zhao Fusheng nodded.
Everything was so natural. He and Fan Baobao were like an old married couple, without any awkwardness.
Watching Fan Baobao leave, Zhao Fusheng lay back down and continued to accompany the little girl for a second sleep.
After a while, Her Highness Princess Fan Beibei finally woke up. Opening her eyes, she saw Zhao Fusheng beside her, gave a sweet smile, reached out her little hand, and placed it on Zhao Fusheng's face: "Brother, brother, get up quickly!"
Zhao Fusheng opened his eyes and smiled: "Beibei's awake? Did you sleep well last night?"
"Not well at first, but then it got better." The little girl giggled: "Sleeping with sister wasn't good, but sleeping with brother was good."
Zhao Fusheng laughed. He wondered how upset Fan Baobao would be when she heard that.
The two, one big and one small, got up and went downstairs. Fan Baobao had already made the porridge and even gone out to buy some steamed buns. Seeing Zhao Fusheng and Fan Beibei coming down together, she said irritably: "Two lazybones, coming down to eat?"
Before Zhao Fusheng could respond, Fan Beibei pouted and denied: "Beibei is not a lazybones. Beibei is very diligent."
"You little ungrateful thing. Last night you wanted to sleep with your sister, but in the middle of the night you ran to his room." Fan Baobao said to her sister.
Hearing this, Zhao Fusheng slapped his forehead, his expression suddenly turning extremely strange.
The next moment, little Fan Beibei, without giving her sister any face, blurted out: "Sister is too noisy when she sleeps. She snores, grinds her teeth, and talks. I don't like sleeping with you..."
Show!
Heavenly show!
Chen Duxiu!
Dihua's show!
Nature's divine show!
Fan Baobao was utterly slain by her precious little sister's words. Her face reddened visibly, and she stood there stunned, unable to utter a word.
Seeing his girlfriend's expression of wanting to cry but having no tears, Zhao Fusheng was laughing wildly inside, but on the surface he calmly tapped Fan Beibei's head: "Little girl, don't say that about your sister. Everyone has their own sleep habits. Sister just likes to sleep that way. You can't dislike her, understand?"
Fan Beibei nodded obediently: "Okay, I understand."
Watching the two of them play off each other, Fan Baobao felt that she might really have a sister named Zhao Beibei.
