Dad's Comic Life

At Night

"You'll sleep here," Jada handed Ren a set of bedding from a closet and seriously said, "No talking in your sleep and no getting close to my bed. Although the child is both ours, we are not husband and wife!"

Tch...

Ren inwardly rolled his eyes. It's like she's never seen a relative before, there'll be a negative impact anyway.

Of course, Ren didn't say this out loud, busied himself preparing the bed.

However, Jada still seemed uneasy and rummaged through things before handing Ren a belt that was originally used to tighten waistlines.

??? Ren was filled with question marks. What was he supposed to do with this belt?

"Use it to tie yourself up," Jada said matter-of-factly, "After all, we've just met, I won't be at ease if I don't tie you up."

Even though they were sharing a room, this was to prevent their daughter from noticing anything, not necessarily because Jada trusted Ren.

She still thought highly of her own looks. Ren seemed to be a responsible person, but she didn't really trust him. You never know what someone is capable of.

"..."

Seriously, did she think he would do something to her at night? They say women hit their peak at thirty, but why does it feel like she's the one restraining him?

"If you tie me up, I won't feel safe!" Ren complained.

This made Jada laugh in exasperation.

What does she mean? Is she lusting after his body?

Just joking!

However, at that moment, the door suddenly swung open.

This caught Jada off guard. She had forgotten to lock the door. What to do in such a situation where they're on the floor?

Little Yuta appeared timidly at the door, clutching her pillow, and stood, glancing at her mother sitting on the bed, then at Ren crouching on the floor, tilting her little head.

Then she showed a sudden realization.

She looked at Jada with an indignant look. "Mom, you're bullying Dad again! This is not okay! You're making Dad who just came back sleep on the floor! You're not that young anymore, if you're so harsh, Dad might just leave home and not come back!"

Look, look, what do you call a thoughtful little girl? This is it!

Looking at his daughter's demeanor, Ren couldn't help but show a hearty smile. On the other side, Jada's face turned pale.

What do you mean by being old and unwanted? I have a good figure and money! There's a lineup of people who want me from here to abroad! She probably would have scolded under normal circumstances.

However, she wouldn't get angry at her daughter, rather, she glanced at Ren, who was smiling, and coldly asked, "What are you laughing at?"

Perhaps it was the intensity of the other's gaze, Ren shuddered and replied, "I remembered something happy."

Then Ren quickly changed the subject, approached Yuta, squatted down, and pinched her nose. "Yueyue, what are you doing in our room?"

It's easy to divert the attention of children. It didn't take long for her to remember why she came here, and raised her little pillow, saying, "I want to sleep with Mom and Dad!"

"No." Before Ren could say anything, Jada refused.

If he agreed, didn't that mean he would be sharing a bed with Jada?

"Dad..." Seeing her mother's refusal, she quickly looked at Ren, hoping he would plead. But before Ren could respond, she sighed lightly, "Forget it."

???? (*￣︿￣) This instantly displeased Ren. Why just give up? At least ask, right?

"Yueyue, why don't you ask me? Why just give up?" Ren looked at Yuta in confusion.

Glancing at Ren's sleeping arrangements on the floor and then at Ren, she sighed and raised her hands, "Dad, since you're sleeping on the floor, is it useful to ask you?"

Such words left Ren speechless.

Indeed, it wasn't useful, but it sounded awkward.

"Mom, I really want to sleep with both you and Dad." Tears were welling up in the little girl's eyes as she said, "I heard from my friends that some of them still sleep with their parents... But I've only slept with you. I want to know what it's like to sleep with both Mom and Dad."

After that, she lowered her head and poked at the ground with her fingers.

However, her tearful eyes occasionally glanced at Jada.

Seeing her daughter like this, Jada, thinking about how her daughter had been without a father since childhood, suddenly felt overwhelmed. So she took a deep breath and grit her teeth: "Okay, just one night!"

 "Yay!!!" The little girl cheered when Jada agreed. She leaped up, jumped onto the bed, and then voluntarily lay in the middle of the bed. She patted the bed eagerly, saying, "Hurry, hurry!"

Ren and Jada glanced at each other, about to get on the bed, when Jada's phone suddenly rang.

She picked up her phone, frowned, and walked to the door.

After a while, she came back, dressed, and looked at Ren, saying, "Sorry, there's something going on at the company."

"So late?" Ren was surprised. It was almost ten o'clock!

"Yes." Jada looked a bit tired at the moment, but she still remembered, "Don't forget to take Yueyue to kindergarten tomorrow morning, okay?"

"I know." Ren nodded.

Jada looked at Yuta apologetically and said, "Sorry, Yueyue, mommy has work to do. You'll sleep with daddy tonight."

"Okay, I understand." Though there was a hint of reluctance on her face, the little girl still nodded.

Seeing this, Jada walked out of the room, stood by the window, and Ren could see Jada's car slowly leaving.

This made Ren couldn't help but feel emotional. He originally thought that being a boss meant no overtime, but here it was, late at night, and the boss still had to leave. It was really pitiful.

In this society, everyone lived like dogs. Only regular people were stray dogs, while bosses and the like were domestic dogs.

As he watched the other leave, Ren thought of the little girl. She finally wanted to sleep with her parents, but now it was not possible. The little one must be very disappointed. So, he turned around to comfort her.

Before he could say anything, the little girl suddenly said, "Daddy, I'm sorry. Mommy has been like this all the time... she's really working hard. It seems like many uncles and aunties have left."

In Yuta's eyes, if all the uncles and aunties left, mommy would be alone, which would be very difficult and pitiful.

"Okay, don't worry, daddy's fine." Hearing the little girl's words, Ren was slightly stunned and then smiled, saying, "Let's go to sleep early, we have school tomorrow morning."
