I Hate You, Devil!

Chapter 60 That nigh

Luo Xiaolei cleared her throat and then looked away for a while. She was afraid that she might forget who this big panda was and pounce on the trio before she realized what she was doing. Well, who wouldn’t be overwhelmed with the excessive cuteness being displayed in front of her?

"Ahem... Little Rui, Ranran, it’s already past your bedtime so let’s get you to bed." Luo Xiaolei said as she moved closer to them.

She noticed that Little Ran was sitting close to Yu Chen and she was surprised. Since they came to this house, Little Ran was always hiding behind his older brother or her when Yu Chen was close, or anyone else for that matter.

Luo Xiaolei didn’t pay attention to his actions because he was like that to everybody except her and his brother. He never spoke with anyone and never wanted to get close or even touch anyone apart from the two of them. But now... why was this little Ran just leisurely sitting beside Yu Chen? Could it be that his reaction towards Yu Chen changed like how she did whenever she saw him in his panda outfit? That was the only possible explanation for this, right?

"Ranran, do you want to sleep close to your uhm... your daddy tonight?" Luo Xiaolei’s question made the little bun look at her with big, round puppy eyes, seemingly asking her what was she talking about. But she didn’t budge because she’d been worried about Little Ran being so detached from others and his unwillingness to even stand close to other people. That was why she took this chance the moment she found it.

Seeing that his mother didn’t budge, the quiet little guy was forced to turn and look at the big panda beside him.

The two stared at each other, both quiet and still like silent ninjas.

Somehow, looking at them like that made Luo Xiaolei realize just how alike the personalities of these two big and small pandas were.

When the little boy just kept staring at Yu Chen innocently, Luo Xiaolei could only give in. After all, having little Ran sit close and even stare at someone like this, other the two of them, for the first time was already a huge leap.

Luo Xiaolei sighed and she was about to speak but she saw the big panda raise his hand and land it on the little panda’s head. She was stunned when Little Ran didn’t flinch or jump away like he always did.

"You want to sleep close to me?" Yu Chen asked again and the little boy blinked three times before he finally moved. He stood and then, he opened his arms, leaned in on him and wrapped his small hands around the big pandas neck before leaning his head on his shoulder.

Subconsciously, Luo Xiaolei covered her mouth with her hand. Even Little Rui’s eyes widened. They didn’t expect Little Ran’s actions at all. Oh gosh, so I’m not the only one being dazzled to the extreme by this big cute panda? He even managed to charm the cold and distant, little Ran?!

"Okay, we better lie down now." Surprisingly, Yu Chen’s voice to him was softer than usual; it was as if he was tying his best not to scare him.

The boy just nodded and then lay down on the bed. Little Ran was lying very close to Yu Chen, facing him even.

"Okay. Come now, mommy, it’s time to sleep." Little Rui pulled her and then in no time, the four pandas, 2 big and 2 small, were now lying on the huge bed. The two little pandas were in the middle of the big pandas and the view was just heartbreakingly heartwarming. It was a picture every family dreamt about.

"Daddy, are you alright with this?" Little Rui spoke again, breaking the warm silence in the room.

"Hhmm?"

"Well, because Ranran and I are in the middle, you can’t hold mommy anymore. Do you want us to switch places?"

As soon as Luo Xiaolei heard what the little guy beside her said, she quickly interjected.

"Little Rui, Ranran is already asleep so let’s also sleep now, okay?"

"But... I feel bad for daddy, I know he wanted to hold you close, too. Right? Daddy?"

"Well, th-"

Yu Chen had just started his sentence when Luo Xiaolei immediately cut him off.

"Haha... don’t worry about that, little Rui, your daddy is a patient man, you understand?" Luo Xiaolei streached her hand over the two little buns and she held Yu Chen’s hand. "Look, this way, he can still hold me fine like this. So sleep now, okay?"

Gladly, the little guy was finally convinced. But he asked again.

"Daddy, are you happy?" Little Rui’s voice was weak, almost a whisper and it was because his younger brother was already asleep.

Yu Chen looked at Luo Xiaolei before he uttered his answer. "Yes."

Little Rui smiled widely and then, unexpectedly, he turned to Luo Xiaolei.

"Mommy, are you happy?" Luo Xiaolei was caught off guard with the sudden question directed on her. Well, Luo Xiaolei still couldn’t even fully grasp what was she really feeling at this moment. She never even once thought that their first night in Yu Chen’s house was like this. It was something she never imagined, overwhelming her to the point that she still didn’t even know how she should react with all these.

"Of course, mommy is happy too." Thankfully, she managed to answer the curious little guy without stammering.

"Ranran and I are also very happy. I wish we can sleep happily like this, the four of us, for many many manyyyyy more nights or forever." Little Rui said and then his eyelids slowly closed, leaving Luo Xiaolei and Yu Chen looking at each other. Luo Xiaolei was wide-eyed while Yu Chen’s gaze was still unreadable. But for some reason, at that very moment, Luo Xiaolei felt as though there was something that flared between them.

...

That night, Yu Chen’s eyes were closed but he was completely awake. His brain wasn’t letting him sleep. Every bit of his senses were all focused on a single spot; on their still intertwined hands.
