“Don’t tell me that it’s all because of our son. How can our son order his boss around? You might as well say that he has a crush on our son, and he’s only treating Jiaojiao so nicely because he loves her brother!”

The corners of Xu Zhiming’s mouth twitched. He could not say anything to that.

Every time Qi Shenbai coaxed Xu Jiao jiao to sleep and tried to tuck her back in bed, she would whine and complain. He could not even move his hand from her back.

In the end, he had no choice but to take off his shoes and get into bed with her, leaning against Xu Jiaojiao. Finally, Xu Jiaojiao slept quietly in his arms and did not make any more noise.

When Qi Shenbai lowered his eyes, he could see her curly eyelashes, her slightly pursed pink lips, and the part of her chest that was tightly pressed against his. That soft sensation was quite alluring.

Taking a deep breath, Qi Shenbai brushed the tip of her nose with his fingertips. His deep voice was filled with doting affection.

“Happy New Year, my clingy koala…”

That night, Xu Jiaojiao slept soundly. She did not even dream. However, Qi Shenbai had a very hard time. He could not sleep the entire night, what with the way she kept rubbing against his body.

It was a sleepless night for him.

The next day, Xu Jiaojiao found herself waking up on her big bed. The blanket on her body was warm and soft.

She yawned as she sat up and scratched her head. A few fragmented memories suddenly flashed through her mind, and her deer-like eyes widened.

Uh-oh, she accidentally drank too much again last night.

This time, though, she had not forgotten what happened last night. For example, she remembered how Qi Shenbai had hugged her and gently coaxed her to sleep…

“Alih, how embarrassing…”

She slowly fell back onto the bed and rolled around…

At dawn, Xu Jiaojiao changed her clothes after washing up and went downstairs. She bumped into Tian Fanghua, who had just walked out of the kitchen.

Tian Fanghua was very concerned. As soon as they met, she patted her daughter’s head. “Are you feeling unwell? I asked Aunt Xia to make you some tea to relieve your hangover. You should feel better after drinking it.”

“Mom, there’s no need. 1 feel fine.” Xu Jiaojiao’s eyes darted around the living room as she asked, “Mom, do you know where Qi Shenbai went?”

“Aunt Xia said that he left early in the morning in a hurry. It looks like he had something urgent to do,” Tian Fanghua replied.
