Qin Yinyin blinked her large eyes and climbed out of bed.
Instead of reaching for the dicine, she imitated Bo Yunshen’s cross-legged posture and began to haggle with him.
"Daddy, if I obediently take my dicine, can you agree to one condition for ?"
Bo Yunshen looked at Qin Yan, who was standing behind him, with a smile that was not quite a smile.
This little girl had certainly mastered Qin Yan’s tactics to perfection!
Though he was inwardly displeased, he didn’t show it and returned his gaze to Qin Yinyin, with a rare hint of leisureliness in his deanor.
"Let’s hear it?"
The condition that Qin Yinyin wanted to propose wasn’t taken seriously by Bo Yunshen; in his view, it was nothing more than a child wanting so toy.
He, Bo Yunshen, was not short on such trivial amounts of money and he generously prompted Qin Yinyin to speak.
"Tonight, can you and Mommy sleep with , is that okay?"
Qin Yinyin’s eyes shone briefly as she blurted out without hesitation.
As soon as the words were out, both Bo Yunshen and Qin Yan froze in place.
Bo Yunshen touched his tongue to the corner of his lips.
The image of Qin Yinyin whispering with Qin Yan flashed through Bo Yunshen’s mind.
His eyes portended an oncoming storm.
Had Qin Yan taught her this?
Just last night, he had mocked her for bringing her daughter into his bed, and now was she really staging such a scene? Qin Yan had so nerve, didn’t she?
Bo Yunshen’s fingers beca unnaturally stiff.
A flicker of light passed swiftly through his eyes as he placed the dicine on the table and got out of bed, turning toward the restroom.
"Mommy..."
Qin Yinyin glanced at the closed bathroom door and called out to Qin Yan.
Qin Yan, unfazed, picked up the pills one by one from the table and offered them to Qin Yinyin: "See, bargaining over taking dicine makes Daddy angry."
"What should we do?"
"Just obediently take your dicine, and Daddy will naturally not be angry anymore."
Qin Yinyin nodded and swallowed the dicine.
Qin Yan gave her a few more sips of water.
Being a doctor herself, she knew well that so of the ingredients in the dicine prescribed to Qin Yinyin were very bitter.
After taking the dicine, she pursed her lips and looked at Qin Yan, asking, "Mommy, will Daddy sleep with us?"
No!
That answer, even if Qin Yan used her toes to think, she knew all too well.
"Yes, but Mommy and Daddy will be busy until late, so you should go to sleep first, okay?"
Qin Yinyin reluctantly nodded her head.
In the restroom, Bo Yunshen listened to the conversation between Qin Yinyin and her mother, sneered, extinguished the tip of a cigarette, and walked out the door.
It was still early, and Qin Yinyin hadn’t gone to sleep yet. Seeing Bo Yunshen co out, Qin Yan approached him, brushed aside the hair near her ear, and revealed her fair, small face.
It was exceptionally stunning.
"Yunshen, the wound on your back needs to be redressed..."
Bo Yunshen stood in place without moving, gave her a cursory glance, and asked, "Director Qin, when can I leave tonight?"
Qin Yan lifted her eyelids slightly and said in a low voice, "Yunshen, you promised that you’d stay here to accompany Yinyin tonight."
A fine smile played around Bo Yunshen’s lips, cold and filled with only sarcasm.
"How shall we sleep?"
Qin Yan blinked her eyes and said in a low voice, "You sleep with Yinyin in bed, she may be young, but she’s very well-behaved when sleeping."
Bo Yunshen’s gaze towards Qin Yan beca particularly aningful.
Was she asking him to follow their arrangent?
She turned her head away, avoiding Bo Yunshen’s gaze, and said, "Once Yinyin falls asleep, I’ll sleep on the sofa, I won’t disturb you."
Bo Yunshen chuckled coldly; he didn’t believe a word Qin Yan said.
He actually wanted to see what kind of ga Qin Yan was trying to play!
Stepping past Qin Yan, Bo Yunshen went straight to the bedside where Qin Yinyin had finished her IV and was lying on the bed reading a storybook.
Bo Yunshen’s body was tall and large; he sat lazily by the bed with his long legs stretched out and his posture relaxed.
When Qin Yinyin saw Bo Yunshen, her eyes lit up, and she waved to Qin Yan, "Mommy, Mommy, co on, it’s ti for bed."
Qin Yan glanced at Bo Yunshen’s expression and said softly, "Mommy’s not tired, you and Daddy go to sleep first."
Qin Yinyin, being sick, had an evident pallor on her face. "Mommy, I’m sleepy, I want to hear a story, will you co tell one, please?"
Qin Yan’s heart softened, and she moved closer, sitting on the other side of the large bed, taking the book from Qin Yinyin’s hand, and asked softly, "Which one do you want to hear?"
Qin Yinyin settled down under the blanket, clutching Bo Yunshen’s hand that was resting on the bed, and cheerfully told him the title of a story.
"Rapunzel."
Qin Yan, worried that Qin Yinyin’s actions would annoy Bo Yunshen, carefully glanced at him and relaxed a little when she saw his expression unaffected.
However, just as she flipped the storybook to the page Qin Yinyin had ntioned, the little girl suddenly patted the spot beside her and said in a pitiful tone, "Mommy, lie here and tell the story."
After a mont, Qin Yinyin added, "Daddy wants to listen too! If you sit over there, Daddy can’t hear!"
Bo Yunshen: "..."
Is he sick? Wanting to hear such a childish story!
Qin Yan should read him the financial newspaper if he was supposed to be listening to anything.
"Mommy..."
Qin Yinyin called out to her in a soft and sticky voice. Qin Yan was still sitting on the edge of the bed, about to start the story, when Bo Yunshen suddenly spoke, "Didn’t you hear Yinyin asking you to co up?"
Qin Yan hesitated, surprised as she looked towards Bo Yunshen.
The corner of his mouth was maliciously curled.
Acting innocent with him now, as if Bo Yunshen was soone just anyone could attract?
As if understanding Bo Yunshen’s sarcasm, Qin Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly. She slipped off her high heels and lay down beside Qin Yinyin, holding the storybook and reading to her.
The story was so dull that after hearing a couple of sentences, Bo Yunshen felt like the stupidity level was on par with so mind-numbing drama that had recently aired.
He was almost falling asleep, and Qin Yan’s eyelids began to droop, but the dicated Qin Yinyin was very alert.
Qin Yan closed the storybook and gently patted Qin Yinyin’s small body, coaxing in a soft voice, "It’s getting late, Yinyin should go to sleep now."
Qin Yinyin got up from the bed.
"Mommy, I need to go to the bathroom."
Qin Yan was about to accompany her when she was stopped by Qin Yinyin’s hand.
"I can go by myself, Mommy you and Daddy go to sleep first."
With that, Qin Yinyin got off the bed. She probably still had a stomach ache, as her walk was a bit unsteady and her steps slightly faltering.
Once she left, Qin Yan and Bo Yunshen realized just how close they were to each other.
Even Bo Yunshen only had to turn his head, and his warm breath would spill onto her face.
Qin Yan felt the hairs on her skin stand up and abruptly retreated, widening the distance between them.
Bo Yunshen felt sowhat dissatisfied, initially it was Qin Yan who had gotten close, and now she acted as if she wanted nothing to do with him—putting on a show for whom?
If it weren’t for Yinyin’s illness being his concern, he would have left long ago; what, did he have any interest in being lovey-dovey with them here?
