“Dear, go up to rest. We’ll take care of him,” Ye Mo said to Liu Duo.
Liu Duo looked at them, while Yang placed Little Huzi onto the bed and started playing with the baby. She believed she could trust them.
“Alright, then I’m going up now. Take care.”
“Dear, if you want to reward us, then maybe you can consider my proposal from this afternoon?”
Ye Mo imitated Ye Liu’s common pose and winked at her.
The other brothers glanced over at them.
Proposal?
What proposal?
Are they keeping something from us?
Liu Duo cleared her throat when several different sets of eyes confronted her. “Nothing to consider! I’m going up!”
She was certain that if she had said she could consider, then the others would surely pester her, wanting to know what the matter was about.
She would not have a precedent to this, otherwise, her three-month intimacy plan would be for nothing!
The brothers watched their wife leave. Then, instead of trailing after her, Ye Liu shut the door.
He leaned against the door, smirking as he asked in his usual, mischievous tone, “Mo, is there a proposal between you and Little Duo that we don’t know about? Let’s hear it.”
Ye Liu stared gleefully at Ye Mo, laying down what was basically a threat and making Ye Mo anxious.
He had blurted it out in the heat of the moment, without considering the occasion!
Idiot!
Ye Yang and Ye Ling set their sights on him, waiting for his reply.
Because they also wanted to know!
Ye Mo cleared his throat. “It’s nothing much, actually. I asked her to help me with a special favor but, as you heard, she didn’t agree to it.”
“Special favor?”
Ye Liu raised his brows, the cogs in his head operating quickly. This man spends most of the day with him, what special favor did he ask from Little Duo?
Food? No, Mo’s not a gourmet chef!
Clothes? No, Mo doesn’t care for that!
Housing? No, Mo’s not picky!
And then, something struck his mind. The look he gave Ye Mo was even more impish than usual.
Bravo, Little Mo! Who knew you could be such a playboy! I never thought of special favors when it comes to bedroom matters!
“Yes, I was wondering if our wife could boil eggs for me sometimes,” Ye Mo replied with a twinkle in his eye.
But, to his brothers, he’d never been a good liar.
Ye Yang, who was not that needy, and Ye Ling, who was more innocent, did not think twice about it and believed him. They looked away from him and once more paid attention to Little Huzi.
Ye Mo breathed a breath of relief when his two brothers bought it.
Yet he could feel Ye Liu’s gaze on him as his brother grinned in silence. Ye Mo knew he could not outsmart Ye Liu, but he refused to face him.
Ye Liu, in turn, did not probe any further. A while later, he exited the room and jogged up the stairs.
Liu Duo, who had already returned to her room, was lying on the bed with her eyes closed. If the men were not able to deal with the baby later at night, at least she would have the energy to help put Little Huzi to sleep.
“Yang, Ling, you two should go rest. I can handle this by myself.”
Ye Mo glanced at the baby who did not look like he would be sleeping any time soon. He supposed that, by the time the baby finally got to sleep, he probably would not wake up in the middle of the night.
Which meant he would have to stay up a bit for now.
