Chapter 246: Chapter 246: Sleeping with Mom and Dad
Jun Qingmeng said, "Jiang Liu, if you don’t want to take your medicine, I can get a doctor to come give you a shot. It’ll only hurt for a second, and you’ll get better much faster."
Jiang Liu: "..."
"No, please don’t. That’s too much trouble."
"Too much trouble?"
Tongtong covered her mouth and whispered, "Mommy, Daddy isn’t just scared of medicine, he’s scared of shots, too."
"Ohhh~ So that’s how it is."
Jun Qingmeng looked at Jiang Liu and started to laugh, as if she’d just made a groundbreaking discovery.
’So my big baby is afraid of shots and medicine.’
’He’s so adorable!!’
’Nope, I have to find a chance to get him a shot.’
’Not for any particular reason.’
’I just want to see the look on Jiang Liu’s face when he panics!’
Jiang Liu pulled the blanket over his face, pretending to be asleep.
’How mortifying.’
’He remembered getting a shot once as a kid. After the doctor wiped on the cool alcohol, he just held the needle up, aiming over and over again.’
’Jiang Liu was mentally tormented for two minutes.’
’And just as he started to relax, he felt a sudden pain in his butt...’
Seeing Jiang Liu like this, the smile in Jun Qingmeng’s eyes grew even wider. She’d just discovered her boyfriend had such an amusing side to him!
’I love it so much!!’
However, she didn’t continue to tease him. "Jiang Liu, if you don’t want a shot, we can skip it. But you have to promise me one thing."
Jiang Liu gave a muffled grunt of assent.
Jun Qingmeng stroked his head and said gently, "You don’t have to get a shot today. But if you’re still not feeling well tomorrow, can you promise to take some medicine and rest for half the day?"
She spoke in a tone one might use to coax a small child.
"Whatever. I don’t care. Medicine, shots, it’s all fine."
Jiang Liu was still under the covers.
Jun Qingmeng and Tongtong exchanged a look and laughed.
After a little while, it was getting late.
"Jiang Liu, well... should I head home now?"
Jiang Liu’s muffled voice replied, "Okay."
Jun Qingmeng stood up, only to sit back down on the edge of the bed.
Her ears suddenly turned pink.
"Jiang Liu?"
"Yeah, what’s up?" Jiang Liu was still hidden under the covers.
"Maybe I... shouldn’t go home tonight. I could stay here with you... I-I’m worried your fever might get worse."
Jun Qingmeng stammered, her cheeks flushing a deep red.
’My heart is about to leap out of my throat.’
Jiang Liu poked his head out from under the covers and stared at Jun Qingmeng in astonishment.
Jun Qingmeng summoned her courage, bit her rosy lips, and gazed at Jiang Liu with her clear, beautiful eyes full of sincerity.
"Daddy, please, please let Mommy stay, okay?"
Jiang Tongtong pleaded, tugging on Jiang Liu’s arm.
’She wanted to be together with her mommy and daddy.’
Jiang Liu thought for a moment and decided it was a good idea.
’He was sick, and while he didn’t really need looking after, he shouldn’t refuse his girlfriend’s kind offer.’
"Okay. You can sleep on Tongtong’s left, and I’ll sleep on her right."
Tongtong, the human dividing line.
Jun Qingmeng’s heart raced as she nodded vigorously. "Okay! Whatever you say!"
"Yay!! Mommy and Daddy are sleeping together! Daddy, you’re so cool! Why are you so extra cool today?!"
Tongtong bounced up and down on the bed happily.
’She could fall asleep hugging Mommy on one side and Daddy on the other.’
’Having both Mommy and Daddy at the same time... this little cutie is just too happy!!’
Jiang Liu quickly shushed Tongtong.
"Keep your voice down, Tongtong. Don’t let Grandma and Grandpa hear. Your Teacher Qingmeng and I aren’t officially married yet!"
"Mmph!" Tongtong hurriedly clapped a hand over her mouth, her eyes darting around mischievously.
’If I cover my mouth fast enough, the sound can’t escape.’
A phone pinged.
Lin Qiu: "You two can be a little bolder. We’re already asleep."
Jiang Liu: ???
Jun Qingmeng saw the message too.
Her face turned even redder.
"Jiang Liu, it should be okay. I’m your girlfriend, after all. It’s only natural for me to stay and take care of you when you’re sick."
She was afraid Jiang Liu would send her home, so she quickly explained herself.
Jiang Liu nodded.
"Daddy, can we get under the covers and lie down now? I want to watch SpongeBob in bed."
’Jiang Tongtong had been wanting to lie in bed for a while. Watching cartoons while snuggled up with her daddy was way more comfortable than sitting up!’
Jiang Liu reached out good-naturedly and pinched Tongtong’s cheek. "What am I going to do with a little lazybones like you?"
"Mmmph, boo-hoo-hoo, Daddy, you’ve changed! You used to always hold Tongtong while we watched cartoons. Are you not going to let your little cutie be lazy anymore?"
"Alright, alright. Get under the covers. I’ll hold you while we watch."
"Hehe, you’re the best, Daddy."
Tongtong quickly scrambled under the covers and snuggled into Jiang Liu’s embrace.
Jiang Liu looked at the slightly awkward Jun Qingmeng and asked, "Do you want to go home and change into your pajamas?"
"No, that’s okay. I don’t want to go out. Jiang Liu, do you have a loose long-sleeved shirt? Preferably one that’s long enough to cover my thighs..."
Jun Qingmeng bit her lip.
’There was no way she could sleep in jeans. It would be too uncomfortable.’
Jiang Tongtong immediately popped out from under the covers. "Mommy, you get in bed first. Tongtong will find something for you."
As she spoke, she opened the closet and began to rummage around.
’She knew the closet even better than her daddy did, because she was the one who organized all the clothes!’
Jiang Liu simply lay back and played dead.
Jun Qingmeng slipped off her shoes, revealing her small, fair, and delicate feet.
They were quite beautiful.
She sat on the edge of the bed, too shy to get under the covers just yet.
"Mommy, how about this one?"
Tongtong held up a white long-sleeved shirt with a big orange printed on it.
"Yes, that’s perfect!"
Jun Qingmeng took the shirt and placed it at the head of the bed.
’She decided to wait until the lights were out to change.’
’It wasn’t that she was afraid of Jiang Liu seeing her, she was just... shy...’
’She’d never really been undressed in front of a man before; she was even quite modest around other women.’
Tongtong quickly dove back under the covers.
"Mommy, hurry up and get in! We can be all cozy together."
Jun Qingmeng said, "There are only two pillows. Are there more in the closet? I can go get one."
"We don’t need one!" Tongtong pulled Jiang Liu’s arm over and rested her head on it. "Tongtong has Daddy, so I don’t need a pillow."
Jiang Liu, the human utility tool, was now online.
Tongtong rested her head on Jiang Liu’s arm, her little eyes peeking out.
"Don’t be shy, Mommy, come on and get in!"
’This little cutie was dying from the suspense!’
’We’re one person short!’
Jun Qingmeng glanced down at the stiff jeans she was wearing. It would definitely be uncomfortable getting into bed with them on.
Seeing that Jiang Liu was still under the covers...
She hesitated for a split second.
With her back to Jiang Liu, she bit her lip, curled up her legs, and slid off her jeans, revealing a pair of long, fair, beautiful legs.
Next, she slipped off her t-shirt and put on the loose, long-sleeved one.
It was hard to say whether Tongtong had chosen it on purpose.
The shirt wasn’t very long, barely covering the tops of Jun Qingmeng’s thighs.
Tongtong watched without so much as a blink.
’As a qualified secret agent, she couldn’t pass up any opportunity to gather intelligence for her daddy!’
Blushing, Jun Qingmeng let her hair fall around her shoulders as she slid under the covers and lay down beside Tongtong.
"Mommy, you smell so nice! Let’s cuddle."
Tongtong let go of Jiang Liu and wriggled into Jun Qingmeng’s arms like a little caterpillar.
Jun Qingmeng stroked Tongtong’s head. "Are you happy?"
"So happy!!"
"Jiang Liu, how are you feeling now? Are you still uncomfortable?"
Jiang Liu emerged from under the covers. He looked at Jun Qingmeng, whose head was just peeking out, and shook his own. "I don’t feel bad. Everything’s fine."
’He had just been studying the [Gourmet Album].’
’He was just over a thousand praise points away from reaching five hundred fifty thousand.’
"That’s good. If you start to feel sick, just tell me. I have to take good care of you," Jun Qingmeng said, her expression serious.
