The children's bed was only 1.5 meters wide.
At first, when Xia Xingchen and Dabai lay there, she felt that there was more than enough space.
After Bai Yeqing lay on it, the space beside her shrank down. She held her breath and her whole body stiffened like a stone.
The man had just finished his bath and his body still had a faint smell of body wash.
It was the same cool and chilly peppermint smell.
Xia Xingchen tried to lie on her back but he wanted to lay on his side for the bed to fit all of them.
Hence… her ear was near the man's chest. Both were closer than ever before that she could clearly hear his steady and strong heartbeat.
She feared that he could hear her own 'thump thump—' erratic heartbeat too.
"Big baby, you haven't told me yet! Other than sleeping together, what else do we need to do to give birth to a baby?" The curious Dabai continued to ask.
Xia Xingchen had the impulse of throwing this brat out.
"I don't know, don't ask me."
"How could you not know? You and Dad have already given birth to me." Xia Dabai furrowed his brows and clearly disliked her perfunctory attitude.
"…Then, ask your dad." After Xia Xingchen was done, she raised her eyes and glanced at the man on her side.
But he lay on his side and slept while using his arm as a pillow. From her angle, she could only see the man's beautiful chin and… sexy adam's apple…
The heavens were so unfair. Not only did this man have supreme authority but he was also bestowed with perfect looks.
He seemed to have caught her gaze on him as he moved his body. As he looked down, he met her gaze.
He quickly pulled a knowing gaze. "Do you really want me to tell him?"
Eh?
Xia Xingchen's face warmed up again. Why did he ask her that?
She coughed and pretended to be calm. "Suit yourself. If you want to tell, then tell him. I don't know anything, anyway."
"Do you really not know or are you pretending not to know?"
His voice was gentle and his hot breath brushed her ear like a feather.
In such a night and distance, the whole atmosphere felt intimate.
Xia Xingchen's eyelashes fluttered vigorously and in the end, she decided to ignore him.
"Dad, tell me then." Xia Dabai moved his curious gaze to him.
Xia Xingchen felt that he should be able to get past the question yet she never thought he would actually give a serious reply. "Sleeping like this is not enough."
"Then what do you need to do."
"It has to be two people sleeping together so they can give birth to a baby."
"…"
Xia Xingchen was already lost in the conversation. Was this… considered giving children a normal sex education? But wasn't it too early?
"Just you and Big baby?" Xia Dabai rolled his large eyes and in the next second, he covered his face with his two hands before snuggling into the blanket. After that, his stuffy voice was heard from under the blanket. "Just pretend Dabai is not here~ Quickly make a baby!"
Xia Xingchen closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.
Anyways, she was going to be played by this little brat tonight.
…
With the man lying beside her, Xia Xingchen initially thought she could not fall asleep, however, sleep quickly overcame her.
In the middle of the night, she was in a daze and had long forgotten where she was at.
She turned her body and bumped into the man's body. She thought it was her Dabai and ignorantly smiled before reaching out to hug him tightly.
Her small face snuggled against 'Dabai' as though she was acting cute.
Since the man was a light sleeper, he immediately awoke from her hug.
He lowered his eyes and his gaze became deeper.
She slept soundly and had a charming yet childish look. It was difficult to imagine that this woman was already the mother of a four-year-old.
She snuggled in his embrace again and Bai Yeqing breathing stiffened before he furrowed his brows. "Xia Xingchen?"
He called her in a deep voice as he put his hands on her shoulders. Under her sleepwear, her bones were slender and she was so thin that he could hold her with one hand.
"Shh… Dabai, don't be noisy…" Her eyes were closed as she murmured in her sleep. Even her fingers pressed down on his soft lips.
This woman actually treated him as her son?
Completely outrageous.
Without her permission, his long fingers raised her small face before he bent his head down. "Xia Xingchen, do you know who I am?"
"Xia Dabai…" Xia Xingchen innocently smiled before she suddenly lunged forward and kissed him on the lips.
That soft and warm touch made Bai Yeqing freeze.
He felt as though electricity had pulsed through his body within the next second.
His breathing became heavy and his deep eyes stared at that sleeping woman who had conducted a bad act yet had an innocent look. He pinched her chin and circled around her slender waist with one hand and then pulled her closer to him.
"Try and kiss me one more time!"
He warned in a deep voice. His voice was dull yet sexy and laced with lethal danger.
"Dabai, you're really not obedient…" Xia Xingchen murmured before leaning over and pressing her soft lips against the man's lips.
Just like before, she wanted to retreat after kissing but her bottom lip was suddenly bit down.
Pain…
She furrowed her brows and awoke with a shock.
She thought Dabai was being cheeky but once she opened her eyes, the man's cold and handsome features appeared in front of her. All of her sleepiness disappeared and she instantly became clear-headed.
It was not Dabai but… Dabai's dad!
So…
Just now the person who she had kissed two times in a daze was… Mister President?
Xia Xingchen cried out in her heart and had the impulse to slap herself.
"Do you still want to kiss me?" he finally said with a deep and hoarse voice as if he had seen enough of her dumbfounded and upset state.
"I… I did not do it on purpose…" Xia Xingchen stuttered and explained.
She then realized he had hugged her.
Moreover, when both of them were talking, their lips were very close to each other…
With just a small movement, they could brush past each other's lips.
Her breathing tightened and she raised her eyes to meet his eyes. She was in a hurry to avert her gaze but it stopped at his lips.
Oh my!
Even his lips were so sexy…
Moreover, when she kissed him just now in a daze, it seemed… nice…
Oh gosh! What was she thinking at this moment?!
Xia Xingchen had embarrassed herself.
She slid her scalding hot hand down and placed it on the man's sturdy shoulders since she wanted him to let go of her.
But, at the next second…
The man's arms tightened and Xia Xingchen's slender body harshly shooked.
'Weng—' She felt her mind going blank.
The hands she placed on the man's shoulder softened its grip.
It was as though all of the strength in her body instantly vanished that even her fingertips were trembling.
In the next second, the man's lips suddenly pressed against hers.
