Chapter 321 - Sleep with Mother

Chapter 321 Sleep with Mother
On the way back to the Lan family, Shen Xinglan took A Miao to his house in Jingcheng City, using Yaya’s crying as a reason. Of course, this was just an excuse that Shen Xinglan had planned to use.

“Mom, do you like our new home?” As soon as they entered the door, Yaya excitedly showed A Miao around.

When she saw the little teddy bear, she bit her finger. But when she saw Xiaoxiao greeting A Miao without hesitation, she became more excited.

“Mrs, welcome home!” Xiaoxiao bent low.

Yaya screamed and ran to Shen Xinglan. “Dad, Dad! Did you hear that? Xiaoxiao can recognize mom. She is my mom!”

“Slow down!” A Miao was worried.

Shen Xinglan picked her up. “You are right. She is your mom.”

“Put her to sleep.” Shen Xinglan gave Yaya to A Miao and whispered.

A Miao stared at him. Without needing to think too much, she could figure out what he was going to do. Shen Xinglan was staring at her as if he couldn’t wait to swallow her.

Yaya was used to taking a nap in the afternoon. Since A Miao was back, she had been in A Miao’s arms, chirping away. A Miao hugged her and put her to bed, humming the song that she used to sing, to put her to sleep.

“Mom…” Yaya tried to keep her eyes open, clutching the corner of A Miao’s clothes, “Will you still be here when Yaya wakes up?”

A Miao’s nose reddened, and she held the little girl into her arms. “I will. When you open your eyes, you will see me.”

“Mom…” Yaya moaned in her arms and squeezed her tightly.

“Yes!”

“Mom…”

“Yes!”

“Mom…”

A Miao looked at her daughter, who finally could not help closing her eyes and falling asleep, and began sobbing herself, her tears flowing copiously.

Her absence had eventually impacted Yaya. A Miao could understand her daughter’s attachment and deep fear that A Miao would disappear when she woke up.

“Don’t cry.” A hand reached over to her.

A Miao turned and threw herself against the familiar chest. Shen Xinglan took her to the next room and removed all her clothes, while she was still crying.

Familiar and strange feelings overcame A Miao. Her sobbing gradually became lesser and finally turned into whispers, echoing with the man calling out.

“A Miao… A Miao…” Shen Xinglan had used almost all his strength, and the only thing he could remember was the woman beneath him. He missed her too much, and it was only in this way that he could be satisfied, and could feel that this woman still belonged to him.

Such a fierce storm ended faster than ever before, because the two people had not opened their minds and bodies to each other for so long. Shen Xinglan held A Miao and kissed her shoulder.

“I could not control myself. Are you feeling alright?”

“I…” A Miao said, but she was surprised by her hoarse voice. She moved and found that man had a reaction again.

Shen Xinglan raised his head and put his arms on both sides of A Miao’s head. “It’s been too long, finally…” He lowered his head and kissed her forehead.

“Shen Xinglan…” A Miao hugged him back.

He gently kissed her, as if she was a piece of delicate porcelain, the most precious treasure in the world.

The long and gentle intimacy made A Miao sleepy. She was awakened by the sounds of loud crying, after a long time.

“Boom!” Yaya opened the door and rushed in.

“I told you that she did not leave.” Shen Xinglan stood behind her. The little girl stared at A Miao, who was in bed, rubbed her eyes before she turned to A Miao again, and then she rushed over.

“Mom!”

In the next second, she was pulled back by Shen Xinglan. “Mom is not feeling comfortable; Yaya can’t do that.”

“Mom, what’s wrong with you?” She looked worriedly at A Miao.

A Miao was blushed. She felt uncomfortable, especially her legs.

Shen Xinglan put Yaya next to her and reached out to help her up.

“Don’t…” A Miao shook her head. If Yaya saw it and told others, they would be in trouble.

She gritted her teeth and sat up against the pillow. She smiled and said, “I’m fine. I just didn’t have enough sleep, and I will be better tomorrow.”

“Then mom, are you hungry?” Yaya’s long eyelashes flickered, and she looked embarrassed.

A Miao smiled. “I’m starved. Let’s have something to eat together, Yaya!”

“Okay!” Yaya thought that no one had discovered that she removed her hand from her little belly. “We and Dad, let’s have dinner together!”

Before dinner, A Miao received a call from Lan Wenxuan. After learning that she was at Shen Xinglan’s house, he was not surprised.

“If his daughter is so obsessed with you, how can you leave? I will pick you up later.”

A Miao refused his offer and said, “If you come, she will know that I will have to go. I’m OK. I can go back after she falls asleep.”

Lan Wenxuan was still playing cards with Ouyang Jin because before he hung up, she could hear the sounds of shouts in the background.

“I will send you back.” Shen Xinglan kissed her, when Yaya was not looking.

A Miao quickly pushed him away, just as Yaya raised her head, smiling at her with rice grains around her mouth.

“Yaya is a good girl!” A Miao wiped her mouth clean.

She felt sad again. When she left, Yaya could not eat by herself yet. Now she could feed herself with the small spoon.

Shen Xinglan pulled her hand and squeezed it, but A Miao shook her head and said that she was fine.

“Mom, what shall we do after dinner?” Yaya had been staring at A Miao, and asked anxiously before her mouth was wiped clean.

A Miao realized that her daughter was afraid that she would leave…

“What does Yaya want to play? How about hide-and-seek?” This was what they used to play at home.

Unexpectedly, Yaya shook her head immediately. “No! I don’t want to play hide-and-seek.”

She threw herself into A Miao’s arms. “I don’t want to lose sight of my mom!”

“Well, we won’t play hide-and-seek. Then shall we draw a picture?” A Miao held her daughter tightly in her arms. She felt very sorry.

Due to her departure, Yaya became insecure. She felt that she could not go on like this, and she must return to her daughter as soon as possible.

“Dad, please get the brush!” Yaya shouted happily.

They began to draw on the drawing board. Most of the time, A Miao and Yaya were the ones painting, while Shen Xinglan watched, as he sat next to them. Occasionally he helped Yaya paint until Yaya began to doze off again, after a long time.

“It’s already ten o’clock.” A Miao looked at her watch.

Hearing her voice, Yaya suddenly hugged her. “Yaya is not sleepy; Yaya does not want to sleep!”

“Yaya.” Shen Xinglan took her up. “Remember what Dad said? Mom can’t come back now. If you get her to stay, we won’t be able to find her later.”

A Miao pulled at Shen Xinglan’s sleeves. She could leave after Yaya was asleep, but he wanted to tell her the truth…

“Don’t lie to her.” Shen Xinglan felt that they must make Yaya understand.

Yaya pouted and her eyes brimmed with tears. She grasped A Miao’s arm tightly and would not let her go.

“Yaya, go sleep with your dad now, and mom will bring you to the amusement park tomorrow, OK?” A Miao stopped lying to Yaya and admitted that she was Yaya’s mom.

It was best to let everyone know that Yaya had identified her as her mum, so that she could have more opportunities to meet with Yaya.

“Mom…” Yaya finally cried out. “Don’t leave Yaya, Yaya is very obedient. I brush my teeth every day, and I don’t eat any candy, wow…”

A Miao also cried, holding her daughter and trying appease her. “Mom will not leave Yaya, but I cannot be Yaya’s mother and cannot stay with Yaya for now.”

“But we can meet every day! If Yaya misses me, you can come and see me, and I will come to Yaya!”

Yaya was in A Miao’s arms, sobbing, while A Miao slowly patted her little back. “Would you like to go to the amusement park with me tomorrow, Yaya?”

“Yes!” Yaya whispered, “Then… Mom will bathe me and tell me a bedtime story.”

“You got it!” A Miao took her upstairs, and Shen Xinglan followed.

He watched A Miao bathe Yaya and put her to bed. It was already eleven o’clock. For Yaya, who usually slept at nine o’clock, she fell asleep as soon as her head touched the pillow.

A Miao read a story, and then kissed her daughter’s little face.

“Let’s go. I will send you home.” Shen Xinglan hugged her, and he felt very sorry when he saw her puffy eyes.

A Miao shook her head. “You can’t leave Yaya alone.”

“Don’t worry. Ouyang will be back soon.”

When they went downstairs, they saw Ouyang Jin coming in.

“Oh!” He looked them up and down with a smile, and his eyes could not move away from A Miao’s waist.

A Miao glared at him.

Shen Xinglan squeezed her waist unabashedly.

“It’s too late. Go back quickly.” Ouyang Jin tried not to laugh. “By the way, did you tell A Miao about the table?”

“What table?” A Miao asked.

Shen Xinglan picked up her coat and gave it to her. “I will tell you in the car.”

After starting the car, Shen Xinglan told A Miao that Ouyang Jin wanted her to get some table sawdust, and he added at last, “This is a basically impossible task for you. You don’t have to hurry. I will figure out another way to help you.”

“It’s really not easy to get that.” A Miao thought for a moment. “The Lan house’s security system is not so easy to break through, especially the collection room. It is heavily insured.”

Shen Xinglan shook her hand. “So, I will try to figure out another way.”

“But if we want to prove that the Lan family and the dragon vein are related, we must first confirm that the antique table is from the dragon vein.”

“I will find some other way.” Shen Xinglan approached and kissed her. “You can pay more attention to the house.”

A Miao shook her head and sighed. “Alas… when will this end?”

“We are here to help you.” Shen Xinglan smiled. “When you agree to my courtship, we will be together every day.”

“You wish!” A Miao poked his arm. “The Elder Master will not agree!”

Shen Xinglan raised his eyebrows. “Let’s wait and see!”

Back at the Lan family, A Miao did not hide, but went to the kitchen to get a drink of water, and also ate a mango. When she was eating the mango, Uncle Fu came over.

“Welcome back!” Seeing her eating the fruit, Uncle Fu thought that she did not have dinner yet. “Shall I get the aunt make some noodles?”josei

A Miao waved her hand, “No, thanks, Uncle Fu. I am exhausted. Playing with children is tiring…”

Then, she felt a little ashamed—she was tired, but it was not because of playing with Yaya.
