Zhou Xiaotao left crying. Behind her, Lu Jiao was a little regretful. With Zhou Xiaotao gone, all the housework now came back to her.

How unfortunate.

It was late. Lu Jiao went to scoop some porridge for the four little ones, then got a bowl to feed Xie Yunjin.

Xie Yunjin’s handsome face was rather frigid. His dark pupils reflected cold white light similar to the stars at night.

He stared at Lu Jiao dully like that.

Lu Jiao was a little weirded out, “What is it? Do your legs hurt?”

Xie Yunjin said depressingly, “Did you do that intentionally?”

Lu Jiao was confused, then realized he wondered if she intentionally let Zhou Xiaotao in.

Lu Jiao denied, “You’re overthinking it. That woman snuck in while I wasn’t paying attention.”

Xie Yunjin studied her and found her to be collected and genuine. So she was telling the truth.

Finally, he felt better and his expression softened.

“Remember the deal you made with me. I write your prescriptions and you stop Zhou Xiaotao from coming in here. She dampens my mood.”

Lu Jiao didn’t fight it and was serious as she vowed, “Don’t worry. If she tries that again, I will beat her up.”

Xie Yunjin was satisfied and snickered.

Lu Jiao asked about his legs, “How are your legs? Did the pain go away?”

Xie Yunjin nodded, “Better than before. The level of pain is something I can endure. Don’t worry about me.”

Lu Jiao very much wanted to tell him that she wasn’t worried about him. She simply wanted him to heal faster.

Though she thought about it, she didn’t say it. She studied his legs. The pain may have gone away, but his legs were just cut open and needed more hypertonic saline.

Since Zhou Xiaotao was here all day, she didn’t get the opportunity to hang a bag of saline for him.

At night, two of the boys will be sleeping with Xie Yunjin. If she hung the IV tonight, would the children see it?

Lu Jiao didn’t know what to do.

Outside the room, the Second Born’s unhappy voice echoed, “Tonight, it’s the First Born and my turn to sleep with mommy. You two, sleep with daddy tonight.”

After Lady Tian went home, the four little ones agreed to take turns and split up at night. Two of them would sleep with Lu Jiao every night, while the other two would sleep with Xie Yunjin.

It was the First and Second Born’s turn to sleep with Lu Jiao tonight.

This was something that was agreed on before. However, every time it was the First and Second Born’s turn to sleep with Lu Jiao, the Fourth Born would pout and fall into a bad mood.

Tonight, he tried to negotiate with the Second Born to see if he could sleep with his mom. Sadly, the Second Born got angry and scolded him.

The Fourth Born mumbled, “Mommy’s bed is big. We have the space. Why don’t the three of us sleep with mommy?”

The Third Born angrily stared at the Fourth Born, “Then what about me?”

The First Born stared at the Fourth Born with a humorless expression, “You’re a man. A man keeps his word. We discussed this before and you agreed to what we discussed. Since you agreed, you cannot break the rules when you want to.”

The Fourth Born’s eyes reddened. He slid down his chair and ran into the east bedroom.

“Mommy, I want to sleep with you.”

Outside the room, the other three raced over as well. They all gaped at the Fourth Born unhappily.

The Fourth Born hogged onto Lu Jiao’s legs and refused to let go. He didn’t even look at the other three.

Lu Jiao’s eyes brightened. She was just troubled about what to do about the IV drip when these four fought over the sleeping situation. This was an opportunity.

She looked at the Fourth Born, “Fourth Born, you want to sleep with me tonight?”

The Fourth Born looked up at her like a puppy as he nodded violently, “Yes, I want to sleep with mommy tonight.”

Lu Jiao frowned, “But you already promised your brothers that you guys would take turns. To break a promise so easily isn’t a good quality.

However, since you asked, I don’t want to reject you. You can sleep with me tonight. But after tonight, you must take responsibility for your own words.”

Lu Jiao’s expression was resolute. If it weren’t for the fact that she needed to hang the IV drip for Xie Yunjin tonight, she wouldn’t be tolerating the Fourth Born’s behavior right now.

Lu Jiao asked the Fourth Born, “Tell me, can you do that?”

The Fourth Born didn’t want to say yes. Lu Jiao’s serious expression, however, scared him. He carefully nodded.

“Yes.”

Lu Jiao patted his head and said softly, “I believe you are a good kid who does everything he says he would do. You are simply attached to me, aren’t you?”

The Fourth Born nodded hard. His eyes were bright and clear. Lu Jiao leaned down and kissed him.

“Fourth Born, you’re going to keep your promises going forward, right?”

The Fourth Born was ignited by Lu Jiao’s encouragement and he loudly announced, “I am a good kid who’s a man of his own words. I will do everything as I say going forward.”

Lu Jiao looked at the other three children, “Why don’t you all sleep with me tonight? Tomorrow, you can start taking turns again.”

The Second and Third Born all smiled.

The First Born wasn’t happy and walked up to the bed, “Then, I will sleep with daddy tonight.”

It was so sad for his dad to sleep alone.

Xie Yunjin could tell that the First Born wanted to sleep with Lu Jiao as well. He said, “Go sleep with your mom. I’m okay. My legs don’t hurt anymore. I didn’t sleep well last night and really want to have a good sleep tonight.”

“I…”

The First Born wanted to say more but Lu Jiao had gotten up, “Okay, come out and have a bath. After your bath, I will tell you guys a bedtime story.”

The other three followed Lu Jiao. The First Born hesitated, which made Xie Yunjin urge, “Hurry, go wash up and sleep. I’m fine.”

The First Born agreed. However, before he left, he ran to Xie Yunjin and kissed him.

“Tomorrow, I will sleep with daddy.”

The other three were already at the door, but after they witnessed the First Born’s actions, they went back in and each kissed Xie Yunjin’s face once.

Xie Yunjin’s face was now full of saliva. He speechlessly watched the children leave. They sure were copycats.

After Lu Jiao bathed them, she told them a story. After they fell asleep, she warmed up the medicine and fed it to Xie Yunjin. Like before, she added the anxiety pill to his medicine, which caused him to fall asleep really quickly.

Scared that the four little ones might burst inside while she hangs the IV, she carefully shut the door before she took a hypertonic saline bag from her space. She hung the drip for Xie Yunjin.
