XingXing was dumbfounded. He didn't understand why Daddy wouldn't let him be affectionate to his mommy. He looked eagerly at his mommy with his big and innocent eyes, hoping that she'd speak up for him.

Disappointingly, his mother didn't seem to quite get what he was trying to convey. In fact, she looked at him somewhat quizzically, "What's the matter, darling?"

Feeling that his mother and him failed to communicate telepathically, XingXing was discouraged. He lowered his head and scooted over closer to her as he spoke in a soft and wronged voice, "Mommy, I want to sleep with you at night."

"Sure," replied Cheng Huan with a smile as she gave Jiang MingYuan a look.

They were used to sleeping together anyway.

As she replied casually, Jiang MingYuan frowned slightly. Holding his son in his hand, he was disapproved of that. "XingXing is getting older. You shouldn't always be sleeping with Mommy."

XingXing could understand what Jiang MingYuan had said and a sense of danger rose from inside of him. Was he about to be squeezed out?

No way! He didn't want to be separated from his Mommy!

XingXing gave his dad an unhappy stare and quickly expressed himself before his mommy said anything. "I'm still young, Daddy."

He was still young, so it was entirely okay to sleep with his Mommy!

Jiang MingYuan's hand that was holding onto XingXing's tightened a bit. Looking at the smiling woman, he had no choice other than trying to reason with XingXing. "You are going to turn five years old after the new year." He would be a big kid.

"I am still young then!" XingXing would not give an inch on this one. "Mommy said big kids are tall."

With a straight face, XingXing solemnly pointed out his own deficiency. "I am still short."

Jiang MingYuan, "..."

Um. Alright. Good point. He lost on this one.

Thoroughly amused, Cheng Huan's lips curved up more and more and she finally busted out laughing.

Both the father and son looked over at her at the same time.

"I'm fine. I'm fine. Carry on." Cheng Huan waved at them and still couldn't hide her smile.

Being laughed at, Jiang MingYuan finally realized how silly the issue was. He recollected himself and awkwardly changed the subject. "Never mind about that. Let's go eat."

The entire 11th floor of the cruise ship were restaurants. Any kind of delectable cuisine that one could think of could be found here. The buffet place that Jiang MingYuan had mentioned was close to the deck and it was very big in surface area.

The restaurant was very quiet and the light was a bit on the dim side. Soothing and beautiful music was being played and all kinds of delicacies were places in the winding corridors yet there were only a few customers in there.

XingXing was very excited about all sorts of sweets. The first thing he did when he walked inside was to grab a plate and headed straight toward the dessert area. For the sake of little children, the tables in this area was particular low. Even with XingXing's height, he could easily reach the food on top of them.

He placed the plate on top of the table and bit by bit moved the items on top of it. Most of these desserts were very colorful and interesting looking and XingXing wanted each and every single one of them. He grabbed and grabbed until he could no longer fit any more onto his plate before he carried the plate back with two hands.
