Reap What You Sow

Chapter 28

A-Yuan was not the cutest baby with his ten toes and ten fingers at two months old. No, he was not, not when he kept his mother from her well-deserved sleep after carrying him for nine months and gave birth to him. He should be grateful that she loves him so much that she is willing to wake up at ungodly hours of the night to breastfed him. Well, it's not only that she's losing sleep her husband is also in the same boat, but she is not talking about him now, not when she is close to tears as she looks into her wide awake babies innocent eyes.

"A-Yuan, it's still dark outside. Please go to sleep. This mother of yours is tired, please. I beg of you. All you have to do is close your eyes. Lan Zhan, your son is fed and burped, and his bum is dry. Tell him to go to sleep, please."

Wei Ying whines pitiful as tears swim in her eyes as she looks from her son to her husband, who looks at her with tired eyes.

"Will take him and put him to sleep."

This gorgeous man of her said, and she could not help but feel a ting of guilt settled inside her heart.

"It's fine, Lan Zhan it's my turn anyway. You try and get some sleep."

She said with a tired voice instead, but her stubborn husband shook his head and said.

"No, Wei Ying. A-Yuan is both of our responsibilities . You can rest while I put him to bed."

Lan Zhan insists, and Wei Ying gave him a weary look before she handed little A-Yuan over to his father, who took his son with all the love and care he felt towards his son. Lan Zhan swings his legs off the bed and stands up before he starts to hum softly to his son, who looked at him with wide innocent eyes. Wei Ying looked at her husband and son and could not help the love that swirls inside her for them.

She was still sitting with her back against the headboard as her tired eyes lovingly followed her husband's  broad backside, where he was walking up and down in their sleeping chamber while humming a lullaby softly. When Lan Zhan turns, he lifts his head, and their eyes meet from across the room. They both gave each other tired smiles before Lan Zhan returned his attention back to his son in his arms.

'How come Lan Zhan is so good with their son. Who would've thought that such a strong man could be so gentle and caring.'

Wei Ying thought to herself as she watched them. Her eyes dropped slowly, and she did not have the energy to force them to stay open. Lan Zhan finally, after five minutes, got his son to sleep, and he walked over to the baby crib and laid him down before pulling the baby quilt over his little body. He looked at his son for another minute before he turned around and smiled to himself when he saw his wife fast asleep still in her sitting position

He walked over and moved her to lay down before he walked around and lay down himself and then pulled the quilt over both of them before he pulled her closer, and Wei Ying snuggled into his embrace before letting out an content sigh and tired sigh in her sleep. Lan Zhan did not take long to fall asleep himself.

The next morning, she surprisingly was awake before her husband, and she soon found out the reason. Her breasts were sore and swollen and leaking, and her nightdress was wet in front. She sighed softly before she swung her legs off the bed and walked over to where the crib was standing. And what did she find when she looked down her son already awake and looking at her. A soft smile came across her face when she saw that and picked him up. At least he did cry the roof of the jinshi off and waited patiently for her to wake up.

Truly, he is his father's son unless he decide to make nighttime daytime, then they have a problem. She kissed him all over his little face until he was squirming in her arms. She went over to the bed and sat down, lying him carefully on her lap, and she opened her sleeping robes before she picked him up again. He almost immediately latches on to her nipple and she drew in a sharp breath as pain shoots through her.
