But when night came, there was someone who wanted to cry. At eleven p.m., the Lin Family’s gathering finally ended. Lin Mubai naturally stood up to head back to his room to rest, but as soon as he took the first step, his mom stopped him.
"Mom, what’s up?" Lin Mubai asked, puzzled and confused.
Lan Yiqing replied calmly, "Tonight, you’re sleeping in the guest room."
"Why?" Lin Mubai wondered why he had to sleep in the guest room for no reason. He felt his mom was too cryptic, and instinctively looked to his dad for help. But his dad cowardly avoided his gaze, deciding not to intervene. Lin Mubai turned his pleading gaze to his grandparents, but they too avoided him.
Irritated, Lin Mubai glared at the person in front of him with eyes full of discontent: "Mom, give me a reason why I can’t sleep in my room." The most update n0vels are published on N0veI.Fiɾe.net
This time, there was a hint of hesitation in Lan Yiqing’s voice. But thinking of her future granddaughter or grandson, she became determined: "Nannan is pregnant now. What if you can’t control yourself at night and harm my grandchild? So starting tonight, while you’re staying at home, you should sleep in the guest room."
Having listened to that reasoning, Lin Mubai felt like he was about to cough up blood. What did this mean? Did it really prove that saying, ’Once you have a grandchild, you lose yourself’?
Lin Mubai didn’t care about any of that. The next moment, he bypassed his mom and headed straight to his room on the second floor. Seeing this, Lan Yiqing hurried after him but saw her precious son standing bitterly at his bedroom door. She cheerfully walked up and asked, "Son, why not go in if you’re early?" She had clearly noticed that the door couldn’t be opened, likely locked from inside. Naturally, she wanted to enjoy the moment; finally someone could handle her troublesome son.
Lin Mubai ignored his mom’s schadenfreude and prepared to keep knocking. As he raised his hand, ready to knock, his mom stopped him: "An Nan might be sleeping; if you knock, you’ll wake her."
Alright, on the first night, Young Master Lin slept alone in the guest room.
The next night, Lan Yiqing claimed she needed to bond with her daughter-in-law, monopolizing the wife. Lin Mubai continued to sleep alone in the living room.
Two nights without his wife’s soft embrace, Lin Mubai couldn’t take it anymore. On that night at the dinner table, he declared, "Mom, if you make me sleep in the guest room again, I’ll take my wife and leave at midnight, never to return."
Lin Mubai’s threat worked the same night.
After two days, An Nan’s inner anger had subsided, and she no longer wished to trouble this man. The other reason was that without this man’s warmth at night, she wasn’t sleeping well.
In the deep of the night, Lin Mubai tightly wrapped his wife in his arms, filled with emotion in his words: "Nights with my wife are truly wonderful."
As for the object of his sentiment, she was already fast asleep.
However, that night, An Nan didn’t sleep soundly, simply because her birthday was coming up, and she felt increasingly anxious.
At midnight, Lin Mubai couldn’t bear to wake his sleeping wife.
