Chapter 116: Chapter 116: Sleepiness Strikes

Chen Qiaoqin had already bathed Yu Nuannuan and changed her into a clean little dudou and underwear. When she saw Xu Shuhua leading Qin Yuelan and Gu Mo inside, both mother and daughter turned their heads to look at them at the same time.

Xu Shuhua had a loud voice, so everything she’d just said outside, Yu Nuannuan had heard clearly.

So, tonight, was she going to sleep with Gu Mo?

Chen Qiaoqin had no idea what Yu Nuannuan was thinking. She got down from the bed and smiled at Qin Yuelan, saying, “There’s still hot water. I’ll go get a basin so Daibao can have a bath too, okay?”

Kids sleep better after a bath.

At first, Qin Yuelan felt a bit embarrassed. But seeing that Chen Qiaoqin didn’t ask any questions and even thoughtfully offered to help bathe Gu Mo, her embarrassment eased a little. “I’ll go with you. Daibao, can you wait here for a bit?”

Gu Mo: “……”

Gu Mo looked at Yu Nuannuan, who was staring at him intently, and shook his head firmly.

No way!

How could he bathe in front of a girl?

Even if she was just a little girl with no memories of her past life and only eight months old, it was still a no!

“I’ll wash outside!” Gu Mo declared, turning and heading toward the door.

Seeing this, Chen Qiaoqin hurried after him. Qin Yuelan put her bundle on the table, opened it, quickly found a towel and a change of clothes for Gu Mo, and rushed out as well.

It was summer, and with the hot weather, both adults and children bathed every day, so no one was particularly dirty.

Not long after, Chen Qiaoqin came back holding Gu Mo’s hand.

Now Gu Mo was wearing a white sleeveless top, black knee-length shorts, and plastic sandals. Having just bathed, his short hair was no longer dripping but still stuck together in damp tufts. The little curl on his forehead bounced with every step he took.

His skin looked even fairer and softer after the bath, and the rosy flush on his cheeks was even more noticeable.

From the moment Gu Mo walked in, Yu Nuannuan’s gaze was glued to him. When he came closer, she broke into a big smile.

Gu Mo was just so good-looking!

In both her past and present lives, she’d never seen a child more beautiful than him!

If only he would smile more, he’d be even cuter.

Gu Mo didn’t understand what Yu Nuannuan was smiling about. As far as he was concerned, kids her age only knew how to giggle foolishly.

Chen Qiaoqin picked Gu Mo up and set him on the bed, took off his sandals, and said gently, “Daibao, you’ll sleep with Nuanbao tonight, okay?”

Gu Mo nodded. “Okay.”

As long as Yu Nuannuan didn’t try to bite his face, he didn’t mind sharing a bed with her.

And just as Gu Mo hoped, Yu Nuannuan didn’t try to bite his face.

Sleepiness comes quickly to little children. Just a moment ago, Yu Nuannuan had been grinning at Gu Mo, but in no time at all, she’d already yawned twice, her mouth wide open.

Her eyes grew moist with drowsiness.

Seeing this, Chen Qiaoqin came over, gently guided Yu Nuannuan to lie down, and said, “Nuanbao, go to sleep now!”

Yu Nuannuan was the most well-behaved child Chen Qiaoqin had ever seen. When she was tired, she never fussed or cried. As soon as her head touched the little pillow, she would fall asleep in just a few seconds.

Watching Yu Nuannuan drift off instantly, a faint smile appeared in Gu Mo’s eyes.

Only a child who knows nothing at all could fall asleep this fast!"
