The two little ones listened to their brother; once they were full and satisfied, with their brother coaxing them, they closed their eyes and quickly fell asleep.
Seeing the two little ones asleep, Jian Shichu carried Xiao Ahling over to lie next to Ye Qingci, letting him sleep as well.
Xiao Ahling crawled into Ye Qingci's arms, his small hand resting on her body, and soon fell asleep.
Jian Shichu looked at his wife, then at his son, his heart melting like water.
He gently touched his wife's cheek, then ruffled his son's hair, watching them with open eyes, feeling no sleepiness at all.
Just by watching them, doing nothing else, he felt so blissful, so blissful.
The taste of this happiness was truly incomparable to exquisite dishes or high official positions.
Thinking back to the stones that had rolled down the hillside earlier that day, almost destroying everything he had, he couldn't help but feel a mixture of lingering fear and anger.
