Chapter 419 -408: Can I Sleep in Your Bed Tonight?

His thin lips were pressed into a straight line without curvature, his gaze dark as he stared at the two little ones.

The two children were frightened by Zhan Qipei’s look, immediately transforming into clingy sweets, sticking to Qiao Jing’s thighs on either side.

Qiao Jing stretched out her hand to ruffle the little heads, looking helplessly at Ni Yue who was asleep on the couch.

“I’m back, have you had dinner yet? Are you still hungry?”

Her suspicion from earlier had indeed come true.

Ni Yue lay on the couch sleeping, while the two children sat on another couch, watching her sleep.

Pingping shook his head.

“Not hungry, Sister Ni Yue bought us porridge.”

He glanced at the takeout boxes still on the table, quieted his footsteps, and hurried over to start putting all the boxes into the trash.

Qiao Jing felt a pang of uncontrollable pain in her heart, Pingping’s maturity was heart-wrenching, and so was Anan’s.

She took Anan to the couch, wanting to help clean up, but Pingping stopped her.

“Sister Qiao, I can clean up myself.”

He was very grateful Sister Qiao had taken him and Anan in, and that Sister Ni Yue even bought them porridge.

Thus, he wanted to do what he could to thank Qiao Jing.

Anan also prepared to help Pingping, but was similarly stopped.

“Anan, no need to help.”

Pingping quickly disposed of the remaining takeout boxes into the trash can.

Anan pouted her lips, looking at Qiao Jing with a face full of grievance.

“Sister Qiao, my brother wouldn’t let me help with sweeping the floor earlier. He wanted to clean the table before you returned,

but he felt dizzy, so he just sat on the couch. He wouldn’t let me clean up, saying he’d do it once his dizziness passed.”

Qiao Jing’s brows furrowed with deep concern, as she looked down at the impeccably clean floor that was nearly shining.

“I see.”

Qiao Jing peeled off the fever-reducing patch from Pingping’s forehead and reached out to check his temperature.

The temperature had dropped quite a bit, but it was still somewhat hot.

“Did Sister Ni Yue give you any fever medicine?”

Pingping obediently nodded his head, pointing to a disposable cup on the table.

“I’ve taken it, no need for you to worry, Sister Qiao.”

Qiao Jing noticed that Ni Yue was still covered with Pingping’s blanket, she took the two children to her own room.

“Why is Sister Ni Yue asleep?”

She remembered that when Ni Yue arrived in the morning, she showed no signs of tiredness, looking very spirited.

How could it be that after she went out for a while, Ni Yue was asleep upon her return?

Pingping blinked his large eyes, just as he was about to speak, he caught sight of Zhan Qipei standing in the doorway.

He stepped forward a few paces, approaching Qiao Jing.

“Sister Ni Yue said she was a bit sleepy, and went to sleep after watching us eat.”

Anan nodded her little head and also moved closer to Qiao Jing, hugging her arm.

At this moment, Zhan Qipei’s face darkened a few shades as he stared at the two children.

These two kids had only known Qiao Jing for one night.

His wife, she actually brought these two kids straight into her room?!

He didn’t receive such treatment when he first moved in!

Currently, with her back to Zhan Qipei, Qiao Jing was unaware of the man’s expression.

But from the two children’s behaviour, she could tell they were scared.

Without even thinking, she knew Zhan Qipei was frowning at Pingping and Anan again.

“So you guys play in my room, and I’ll go check on Sister Ni Yue outside, okay?”

Pingping and Anan simultaneously nodded their heads, ran to the chair in Qiao Jing’s room, and sat motionlessly, like two little wooden figures.

Seeing the two little ones like this, Qiao Jing couldn’t help but smile.

“You can move around the house freely, but I don’t have any toys at home for you to play with, so it might be a bit boring.”

She thought about the child in her belly who was only three months along, so she hadn’t prepared any toys to have around the house in advance.

Pingping shook his head and, with Anan, sat very well-behaved on the chair, big eyes looking at Qiao Jing.

“It’s not boring, thank you, Sister Qiao. Anan and I can just sit here.”

Qiao Jing nodded, and just as she turned around, she met the man’s darkening face.

Without a word, she pulled Zhan Qipei and took him into the bedroom.

“Why are you always frowning? You’ve scared the two little kids.”

Zhan Qipei pursed his thin lips and gazed deeply toward the direction of Qiao Jing’s room.

“They went into your room.”

Qiao Jing rolled her eyes in exasperation, unable to believe this ridiculous man was getting jealous again.

“So what if they went into my room? You’ve been inside as well, and back when we were at the hospital, you even slept on my bed.”

She was at her wit’s end with this man, she had cured many diseases, but the one thing she couldn’t treat was Zhan Qipei’s jealousy.

Zhan Qipei declared righteously, “That’s different, I’m your husband, of course I can sleep on your bed.”

At this, the man’s dark eyes dimmed, a corner of his mouth lifted, and he changed tack.

“Can I sleep on your bed tonight as well?”

He had not only climbed into Qiao Jing’s bed in the hospital but many other times as well, after she had fallen asleep.

She just didn’t know it.

Qiao Jing, at a loss for words, just walked out without looking back.

“In your dreams.”

After coming to the living room, Qiao Jing first poured herself a glass of water to drink and then sat down on the couch.

She glanced at Ni Yue, who was still sound asleep, and just as she walked over, she noticed signs that Ni Yue was about to wake up.

With nothing better to do, Qiao Jing casually tapped on the table, waiting for Ni Yue to fully wake up before asking.

Ni Yue slowly opened her eyes, lay on the couch staring at the ceiling for a few minutes, then propped herself up from the couch.

As she got up, she saw Qiao Jing sitting next to her and got a fright.

“Damn! Qiao Qiao, when did you get back?”

Qiao Jing slightly raised her eyebrows and nodded.

“I came back right after the conference ended. Didn’t you rest well on the plane?”

If she had known Ni Yue needed more rest, she would have found a temp and let Ni Yue go home to sleep.

Ni Yue quickly shook her head.

“No, no, I’ve rested enough, but I felt a bit sleepy just now, so I took a nap.

Don’t worry, Pingping and Anan have had their meal, but why did the people from Zhouhuan Restaurant just make it and deliver it when they heard it was for you?”

Qiao Jing pressed her lips together.

“I know their owner. Which two packets of fever medicine did you give Pingping? His fever still hasn’t come down.”

Ni Yue uttered an “ah” and took out two packets of fever medicine from the medicine box.

“Aren’t these the two packets you said to mix together and drink? The fever still hasn’t come down? Should we take him to the hospital to have a look?”

She paused, then suddenly remembered something.

“Qiao Qiao! You haven’t told me where the two of them came from, they just told me their names. They are so shy; they hardly talk to me.”

Qiao Jing looked at the two packets of fever medicine with a headache.

“You got one of the packets wrong, but it’s not a big deal, I’ll just have him take more fever medicine later.”
