Chapter 220: MARITAL RELATIONS REMAIN

~7 min read 1,394 words

Bai Shuruo was stunned.

Was he in such a rush?

Han Yangting said, "I presume you already have an answer in your heart, don't you?"

Before Bai Shuruo could speak, he continued, "You are a person with a strong sense of morality, and you are also a very responsible mother. Your family is your everything, so for the sake of Xiaofeng, you will definitely agree."

Bai Shuruo: "..."

Had she agreed?

She gave a cough, then said, "I don't mind continuing the marriage, but..."

"As for having a younger brother or sister for Xiaofeng, let's talk about that another day. There is no rush for this, and no one is pressuring you; it is entirely up to your own willingness."

Bai Shuruo: "..."

"Don't go back tonight. If you have to go to work tomorrow, let the driver take you. From now on, just live in the Manor. That way, Xiaofeng can see you every day. She is at a sensitive age right now; two days ago, while watching a cartoon, she asked why Daddy Pig and Mommy Pig could live together, but we couldn't?"

Bai Shuruo: "..."

She glanced at the sleeping Xiaofeng.

She felt that the child was indeed a bit pitiful.

Since that was the case, then let's give Xiaofeng a complete home.

"Then... since you don't intend to get married, and I don't intend to get married, then we... can continue the marriage."

After Bai Shuruo finished speaking, she looked out the window.

The plane was flying very steadily, and many stars could be seen, as romantic as Disney.

Bai Shuruo moved back in.

She thought she would have to explain things to Ye Caiyue and Han Dongbei, yet these two did not feel surprised. They were only slightly taken aback, then accepted their decision, and they believed this was the best arrangement—good for them, and good for Xiaofeng.

Bai Shuruo then made a phone call back to Bai Shunan to tell her about this matter. Strangely, Bai Shunan did not feel surprised either.

"Ruoruo, just live your life well with Han Yangting. Don't be too stubborn. If you can avoid divorce, then don't. In a person's life, there aren't many people you can meet who are a one-hundred-percent match; cherish this one."

Bai Shuruo said, "But, he might not have any love for me anymore."

Bai Shunan burst into laughter: "Love is something you make; if you don't spend time with him properly, how would you know?"

"Sister..." Bai Shuruo's face turned bright red.

"Regardless, as long as it's harmonious, that's enough. How many couples in middle age live just like relatives? Don't be unrealistic. Now that you are a mother, just live your own life well and take good care of the child."

Bai Shuruo thought that was true too.

"Sister, what about you?" Bai Shuruo asked: "Do you not intend to... get married?"

"Your sister is still young, no rush," Bai Shunan said.

After hanging up the phone, Bai Shuruo returned to Xiaofeng's room.

Usually, she and Xiaofeng slept together.

Tonight, Han Yangting was also in Xiaofeng's room.

Han Yangting was reading a picture book to Xiaofeng: "... After the little bear entered dreamland, Papa Bear and Mama Bear also entered dreamland..."

Xiaofeng looked at the picture book: "Daddy, do Papa Bear and Mama Bear sleep in the same bed?"

"Yes, they are husband and wife."

"Grandpa and Grandma also sleep in the same bed."

"Yes, they are husband and wife."

"Then what about you and Mommy?"

Han Yangting glanced at Bai Shuruo and said, "Logically speaking, they should also sleep in the same bed."

"Then you guys hurry up and get on," Xiaofeng said: "Xiaofeng wants to sleep in the middle, and you two sleep on the sides."

Xiaofeng's bed was two meters wide, because they had to prevent her from rolling off the bed.

Han Yangting glanced at Bai Shuruo and said, "Then ask Mommy if she is willing?"

Bai Shuruo's heart skipped a beat.

"Mommy, hurry up and come over," Xiaofeng pointed to the spot beside her.

Bai Shuruo then crawled to the innermost spot, letting Xiaofeng be in the middle, while Han Yangting lay on the outermost side.

Xiaofeng was extremely excited; she didn't even look at the picture book anymore. For the first time sharing a bed with her daddy and mommy, she bounced on the bed, jumping onto Bai Shuruo one moment and lying on Han Yangting the next.

A moment later, she performed a program from kindergarten, making Bai Shuruo and Han Yangting unable to hold back their laughter.

Finally, after she had tossed and turned enough, Xiaofeng slowly fell asleep.

Once Xiaofeng fell asleep, the children's room returned to silence.

Across Xiaofeng's little head, Bai Shuruo turned to look at Han Yangting and saw that Han Yangting was also looking at her.

Her heart stirred again, and she felt a wave of heat spread through her lower abdomen.

She didn't have the heart to tell him to leave; after all, this was his territory.

The atmosphere remained awkward like this. At that moment, Xiaofeng turned over heavily, and her two little legs landed on Bai Shuruo's body.

She couldn't help but say, "This child has never been still while sleeping since she was little."

Bai Shuruo had no choice but to wait until she was sleeping soundly before slowly moving her legs away.

But Xiaofeng suddenly sat up again, then her whole body flopped onto Han Yangting. Perhaps feeling uncomfortable, she suddenly rolled to the outermost side, then pushed Han Yangting toward the inside.

Worried she might fall, Han Yangting had no choice but to lean toward the inside.

Now, it was his turn to sleep in the middle, with Xiaofeng sleeping on the outside.

However, there were bed rails; one press and the bed rails would rise, so there was no fear of Xiaofeng falling.

But this way, Bai Shuruo and Han Yangting ended up in a position where they were pressed right against each other.

She subconsciously shifted inward, but it didn't help much; they were still pressed right against each other.

She subconsciously turned over, facing away from him.

Her heart, however, was thumping wildly.

The person behind her made no movement, not for a long time.

She had maintained this position for too long and couldn't help but turn over; in the dim light, she saw that he was already asleep, his eyes closed, his eyelashes long, looking as if he were sleeping quite soundly.

She turned over again, lying on her back, but it was uncomfortable, so she turned once more, ending up on her side.

At some unknown time, Bai Shuruo woke up in a daze and discovered she was leaning against someone's chest, her arms tightly hugging him.

At the time, she only felt a sense of security, but when she realized that the person she was hugging was Han Yangting, she hurriedly looked up at him.

He did not know when he had woken up, and he was also looking at her.

She hurriedly lay back down on her own pillow, her face turning as red as a large tomato.

She felt an indentation on one side of her face; she must have been sleeping on his chest for a long time.

Could this be muscle memory?

Why was she so restless even while asleep?

Or was it that his embrace was just too secure?

Yet he hadn't resisted either, letting her press against him the whole time.

She didn't intend to explain it either; if it was awkward, then so be it.

Turning her head, she saw him still staring at her, so she asked, "Are you awake? What time is it now?"

"6:00 in the morning."

"Then... I should get up; I still have to go to work."

He nodded and added, "I'll stay with Xiaofeng for a while longer; I'll take her to school later."

She sat up, wondering how she was going to get out.

Right now, he was sleeping in the middle, Xiaofeng was on the very outside, and she was against the wall.

Forget it, she would just climb over.

In order not to wake Xiaofeng, she carefully crawled outward, but her foot got caught in the quilt, and she suddenly sprawled across his legs, and, as it happened, she was pressing against a sensitive area.
