Story: Noble Marriage

Lin Xinlan’s face grew even hotter, he said those words with no fear of being overheard by anyone else.

"No." she whispered in refusal, "Xiaocong always sleeps with me at night. He didn’t sleep with me last night, and something happened to him this morning, so I’m worried about him."

The man grabbed her hand, bit it near his lips, and said, "Don’t worry about that, I can have a maid look after him. Or, my mom would be glad to sleep with him."

"Still no, he’s not used to sleeping with others, he can’t be separated from me."

A flicker of annoyance flashed in the man’s eyes, this was clearly her excuse!

"I don’t care, you can only sleep with me, you have to agree even if you don’t want to!"

Lin Xinlan chuckled softly, "Then you deal with Xiaocong, see if he agrees. If he agrees, then I’ll agree."

"Piece of cake, leave it to me. Can’t I even handle my own son?"

Rong Shaoze turned and picked up Xiaocong, whispering something in his ear. Xiaocong frowned, shaking his head. Rong Shaoze frowned too, he whispered again, but Xiaocong kept shaking his head, his little head bobbing like a drum in the waves.

Lin Xinlan chuckled to herself, she knew that Xiaocong wouldn’t agree.

He was used to sleeping with her and couldn’t be away from her, even if Rong Shaoze was his dad, he wouldn’t give in.

Rong Shaoze got really angry, who had a son who would go against his own father like this?

He patiently whispered again, and this time Xiaocong hesitated, then nodded, indicating his agreement.

Rong Shaoze immediately cast him aside, with the underhandedness of burning bridges after crossing.

He approached Lin Xinlan with a big smile, extremely proud of himself, "He agreed, you’re not allowed to go back on your word."

Lin Xinlan, curious, asked, "How did you persuade him?"

"Secret!" The man smiled triumphantly.

Such morals!

She didn’t need to ask him, she could just ask her son.

"Xiaocong, tell Mom, what did Dad say to you?"

"Not allowed to say!" Rong Shaoze warned in a stern voice.

Xiaocong wasn’t afraid of him at all, if Mom asked, he must answer, "Dad said he’s afraid of the dark, and if he doesn’t sleep with Mom, he won’t be able to sleep.

He said Xiaocong is growing up, becoming a little man, and should show some understanding for Dad.

So, I agreed to Dad, not to sleep with Mom.

.. Mom, I can really sleep with Grandma, don’t worry about me. "

"Rong Shaoze, you’re really despicable!" To think he could concoct such a tall tale, Xiaocong was only four, how could he bear to lie to him!

The man chuckled with a grin that was somewhat brazen.

Lin Xinlan pinched his arm hard, reproaching fiercely, "Look at our son, he’s so much more sensible than you, choosing to sacrifice his own comfort so that you can sleep at night, don’t you feel ashamed of yourself?"

The man held her hand, leaning close to her ear to whine, "I truly can’t sleep at night without you..."

Lin Xinlan broke out in goosebumps, pushing him away and shivering uncontrollably.

Rong Shaoze just laughed heartily, a laugh of utter shamelessness...

When they returned to the Rong Family’s old mansion, Rong Shaoze felt slightly sentimental as he carried Xiaocong in one arm and held Lin Xinlan’s hand with the other, walking towards the inside.

The maid, upon seeing him, was as shocked as if she’d seen a ghost, her eyes widening, "Young... Young Master... You... aren’t you... supposed to be..." dead?

Fortunately, the maid stopped herself before finishing the sentence, quickly coming to her senses and running inside excitedly and breathlessly.

"Madam, the Young Master has returned, the Young Master has come back! And the Young Madam, and the little Young Master!"
