They’re all soft-legged shrimps

The teenager got into the bed, but was still radiating a chill.

Perhaps realizing that he was cold, he didn't immediately hug her.

Liu Yusheng, however, moved and automatically nestled into the teenager's arms.

With her warmth, driving away the cold for him was what she wanted to do most at this moment.

His hands then immediately and spontaneously encircled her tightly.

Liu Yusheng yawned and rubbed her head against the teenager's chest. "Sleep, Brother Axiu."

The teenager nodded, but his eyes were wide open, bright and tense in the darkness.

The child's breathing was fast and even, but the boy seemed completely sleepless. His hands quietly kept changing the position of holding her.

Each pose change made the corners of his lips rise a little, as if he had gotten an incredible toy, and he was having fun playing with it.

This was Shengsheng. Shengsheng was comfortable to hug.

Soft, warm and fragrant.

This room was filled with her scent, he loved it.

He would sleep here later on.

In the middle of the night, the three doors in the main house opened almost simultaneously. Startled, the three women looked at each other and burst into laughter.

"Mother, why are you up too?" Chen Xiulan asked together with Du Juan.

"I'm worried about the kids kicking their blankets and catching a cold, so I got up to check on them. You guys have a lot of work to do during the day, go back to sleep, I'll just go see."

"We're already awake, and it's not too late. Mother, go and check on Axiu, and I'll go with Sister-in-law to tuck Nannan in." Both sisters-in-law knew that their mother was concerned that Axiu would be uncomfortable and sleepless as he had just come back.

The three lifted the oil lamp and went to the two rooms separately.

Chen Xiulan and Du Juan opened the door of Liu Yusheng's room, and instantly froze. The faint yellow light shone on the lumps on the quilt. Under it, the half-grown boy held the little child close to his bosom and embraced her to sleep.

His face was serene and relaxed, sleeping sweetly.

It was totally inappropriate, but it exuded the beautiful tranquility of time, which made them reluctant to disturb.

In the other room, Grandma Liu rushed out in a panic, ashen- faced, and with a trembling voice. "It's bad, Axiu, Axiuo is missing! Quickly, go get the men in the house up and go find him! Where did this kid go again!…"

"Mother! Hush-" Du Juan quickly silenced her in a hushed tone. She pointed into the room, signaling Grandma Liu to come closer and have a look. "The kid is here mother, sleeping soundly. Don't worry, he's fine!"

"…" After seeing that the child was indeed in the Nannan's room, Grandma Liu's heart fell back to where it was.

Uhm, this was awkward.

S-Should they wake the child up and send him back to his room for the night?

Although she said during supper Nannan was only six years old, and that there was no need to be so strict with men and women propriety, it wasn't to the extent where it wouldn't matter if they slept together.
