Chapter 449: Chapter 449

Bi Xiaoyuan rubbed his drowsy eyes, pushed open the door, and looked at Bi Xia, who was still lazing in bed. He walked over to the bedside and gently pushed Bi Xia, calling out softly.

Mumbling, Bi Xia who had stayed up late last night, half-opened his eyes and looked at Bi Xiaoyuan standing by his bed. He lazily yawned, "What’s the matter?" Read complete versıon only at Nov3lFɪre.ɴet

Bi Xiaoyuan mumbled, "Mom said to come down and eat."

"It’s the weekend. Tell mom, I’m not eating," Bi Xia lazily turned over and buried his head in the blanket.

Bi Xiaoyuan tilted his head and suddenly said, "Brother, I don’t want to eat either."

"Hmm?" Bi Xia poked his head out and looked at the yawning Bi Xiaoyuan. He sighed softly. Ever since their mom showed her full abilities, she hadn’t missed making three meals a day, even on weekends.

He reached out, pinched Bi Xiaoyuan’s little face, lifted the blanket, and stretched out his arm, "Come in."

Bi Xiaoyuan’s eyes lit up. He kicked off his little slippers and rolled into Bi Xia’s bed. The air conditioning was blowing cool air, and covering themselves with the blanket felt perfect and extremely comfortable. Having wanted to sleep with his brother for a long time, Bi Xiaoyuan rested his little head on Bi Xia’s arm and looked at him with big sparkling eyes, grinning widely.

Raising an eyebrow slightly, Bi Xia tapped Bi Xiaoyuan’s forehead, "What are you smiling at?"

Bi Xiaoyuan giggled. At that moment, the door was knocked, and Bi Xiaoyuan quickly closed his eyes, pretending to be asleep. Xia Shi pushed open the door and was surprised to see both of his children lying in bed. He then looked at the pretending-to-sleep Bi Xiaoyuan with a look of helpless amusement, "Bi Yuan, I asked you to call your brother to get up, but why are you sleeping now?"

Bi Xia, joining the act, motioned to Xia Shi with a "shh" gesture, "Bi Xiaoyuan is asleep."

"Get out of here. Do I not know Bi Xiaoyuan?" Xia Shi glared at Bi Xia, who was overly doting on his brother, "Sometimes, I really feel like I’m an outsider in this family. One of you spoils your brother, and the other sticks to your brother. Sigh, poor me, nobody wants me."

Bi Xia laughed, "Mom, you can look for your first love, do you need my help to find him?"

"Go away!" Xia Shi rolled his eyes and looked at the curled-up Bi Xiaoyuan in front of Bi Xia, who was secretly giggling, "You guys can pretend all you want, get up and eat!"

Bi Xia stopped and directly closed his eyes, "I’m asleep."

Bi Xiaoyuan quickly echoed, "I’m asleep too!"

Xia Shi was furious and walked up, giving both Bi Xia and Bi Xiaoyuan a light slap, one on each, "Starve you two!"

As Xia Shi walked out and closed the door, both Bi Xia and Bi Xiaoyuan opened their eyes simultaneously. They looked at the closed door, exchanged a glance, and burst out laughing at the same time.

Bi Xiaoyuan giggled, nested against Bi Xia’s chest, and affectionately snuggled up to him. Bi Xia, doting on Bi Xiaoyuan, let him mess around. After a little while, Bi Xiaoyuan’s eyes started to droop, and soon he was snoring.

Bi Xia chuckled lightly, wrapped his arm around Bi Xiaoyuan, and held him close with the other hand resting on Bi Xiaoyuan’s body, gently patting him. Honestly, comforting Bi Xiaoyuan was a common occurrence for Bi Xia now, but in his past life, it had never happened even once. Therefore, no matter how many times he had to comfort Bi Xiaoyuan in this life, Bi Xia would do it with all the patience in the world.

Because she knew, as Bi Xiaoyuan grew older, she could no longer treat him like a child. Each time she comforted him was one less time...

The snoring did not noise, but in Bi Xia’s ears, it fully showcased Bi Xiaoyuan’s innocence. The babyish scent made Bi Xia’s heart feel soft. Having been busy handling the affairs of Nine Pavilion and X Group, this kind of daily warmth felt a bit estranged...

Closing his eyes slightly, the young man holding the child in his arms fell into a deep sleep. At this moment, the room door was quietly pushed open, and Xia Shi cautiously peeked in. Seeing the scene inside, he couldn’t help but smile. That smile was like the sun after the rain, beautiful and radiant, with eyes filled with indescribable tenderness.
