Chapter 943: Chapter 943: Can’t Mommy Walk by Herself? (2)
Little Youyou looked at her serious-faced daddy and said aggrievedly, “But I’m only five, everyone says I’m just a child!”
“Five years old is already old enough to sleep by yourself.” Gu Annan showed no intention of compromise.
Just now, he saw Lu Wanwan dozing off beside the desk waiting for him, thinking if he didn’t return to the room, she wouldn’t sleep well.
How come the minute he sees his daughter, he’s going to be tossed into the room alone.
Ridiculous, why should he sleep alone?
“Gu Annan!” Lu Wanwan looked at him, acting all serious with their daughter, utterly speechless.
When Little Youyou used to sleep in the same room with her brother, she would crawl into her bed if she couldn’t sleep and sleep with her.
Now she sleeps alone, maybe the daughter is scared.
“Daddy.” Little Youyou wasn’t really insisting on sleeping with mommy.
But seeing her daddy so adamant, she felt if she lost this time, maybe she wouldn’t be able to sleep with mommy again.
Lu Wanwan rushed forward and pulled him aside, whispering, “If you keep being unreasonable, she’ll start disliking you. Didn’t you say I’m always seducing you? Now that there’s no confirmed antidote, why can’t I spend more time with our daughter?”
“Just this once.” He finally relented but added a condition, “Come back after she falls asleep.”
Lu Wanwan wanted to haggle more, but seeing his expression, it was clear there was no room for negotiation.
She had no choice but to agree reluctantly, and was about to take Little Youyou back to their room when Little Momo, who she hadn’t noticed opened the door, blinked, “Mommy, it’s my turn to sleep with you tomorrow.”
Gu Annan showed no tolerance this time, “In your dreams!”
It was rare to see him act so childish, Lu Wanwan couldn’t help but laugh, only to be glared at by him.
Late at night, after Lu Wanwan coaxed Youyou to sleep, she unknowingly fell asleep as well, completely forgetting Gu Annan’s reminder to return at midnight.
She suddenly opened her eyes and realized it was already five in the morning.
Only then did she remember, and she got out of bed quietly.
As she quietly opened the door, upon entering, she saw the man lying on the bed, staring intently in her direction.
Those eyes looked dangerous, as if she had done something terribly wrong.
“Why are you up so early?” Lu Wanwan cleared her throat and laughed, gently sitting on the bed, “Was my noise too loud, waking you up when I opened the door?”
Gu Annan didn’t move, staring at her with a sharp curve at the corner of his lips, “What if I told you I wasn’t asleep at all?”
Lu Wanwan was stunned, “No way.”
“Why not?”
“It couldn’t possibly be because of me… you couldn’t sleep?” She glanced at Gu Annan’s expression, hoping to pacify him, but felt she shouldn’t overact.
“What do you think?”
“…” You’re kidding, right?
“I couldn’t sleep, would be out of sorts the next day, handle company matters inefficiently, taking up more time. From this perspective, shouldn’t you compensate me?” Gu Annan narrowed his eyes, “From now on, you must sleep with me, got it?”
Lu Wanwan was speechless at his reasoning.
She moved closer, wrapping her arms around his neck to lean forward.
Gu Annan frowned and pushed her slightly away.
“It’s you who asked me to compensate!”
He glanced down, “Right way, wrong time, save it for later.”
“Can’t wait for later, now or never!” She forced a peck on his lips, “Let me try!”
