The next few days were busy. As feared the construction work made the Goji Berries into little grump monsters. Every time it was time for their nap a loud bang or shout would startle them awake again.

"I'll talk to Jie Hong this can't continue." Yichen said as he tried to rock Little Goji Berry to sleep.

"No, these two need to learn to sleep through a little noise. We can't make the world go silent just because they are sleeping." Mochou said with stubborn irritation.

After dealing with the Grumpy Goji Berries all day his own stubbornness came out and he no longer bothered to even try placating them. Instead he was determined to teach them how to self soothe and sleep even if the world was crashing down around them.

"And how do you plan on doing that?" Yichen asked.

"It's simple. Stop rocking him and put him back in the crib." Mochou commanded. Both Little Goji and Yichen stared big eyed at Mochou. Neither was willing to separate.

"I'm serious Yichen. We can't coddle them through this difficult time. Look at Big Goji. He's can't sleep but he's at least being good and staying in the crib." Mochou said while pointing at their son who was gnawing on his own toes.

He had also been more irritable but he was more easily soothed. It only took a few taps on the bum and some butterfly kisses to calm him down. He also found ways to entertain himself. Unlike Little Goji who required a lot more attention. Mochou could be rocking him for ten-twenty minutes and he still wouldn't be happy.

"They are different. Little Goji Berry needs a bit more attention."

"I know he's a GER and his brother is a boy but they both need to learn to self soothe we can't coddle one and not the other." Mochou pointed out.

Yichen realized he wasn't going to win the argument so he gave Little Goji a kiss before placing him in the crib. The way he reached up and tried grabbing at Yichen with his pitiful watery eyes tore at Yichen's heart. Right away Yichen moved to pick him back up but Mochou stepped forward to block him.

"I know it's difficult but resist the temptation. Go into the living room or even your clinic to do some work if you have to. I'll handle them." Mochou said knowing Yichen was bound to crack under the gaze of their youngest.

"But..."

"Mochou didn't give him any other choice. He grabbed his arm and escorted him out of the room. The moment they left they could hear the soft sobbing of their youngest.

"Mochou, he needs me." Yichen said as he tried to go back.

"No, he needs no one." Mochou coldly said.

"So cruel!" Yichen remarked unable to close off his heart to his GER's cries like Mochou could. Knowing how difficult it was going to be Mochou decided to try and distract Yichen in a different way.

"Let me give you a choice then. You can come with me to our bedroom and make me cry out in pleasure or you can go back in the room and coddled them. It's your choice." Mochou said.

Yichen stared at Mochou wide eyed and in shock. To be offered something so sweet in the middle of the day by his bae was unheard of. If it was any other day he would never hesitated to choose Mochou. But pulling at his heart were the sorrowful cries from his sweet babies.

"Do I give in to temptation or choose..."

"Are you still hesitating? The babies are perfectly safe, healthy, and capable of falling asleep on their own." Mochou exclaimed frustrated with his husband's response. Yichen tried to focus on Mochou but the crying grew louder and Yichen's gaze wandered up towards the babies bedroom door.
