He unexpectedly becomes a father at the start of his life, and the mother of his child is a national

Looking at Lin Caiwei's slightly flustered and shy appearance, Chen Hao smiled faintly, a slight upturn to his lips.

Without saying much, I calmly washed the plate clean, dried it, and placed it steadily in the cupboard.

"Go out and play with Sisi. I'll take care of the rest of the work," he said softly.

"Um."

Lin Caiwei responded softly, turned around and walked quickly out of the kitchen. Even after she left the kitchen, the tips of her ears were still bright red, and her heart was pounding.

In the evening, after Sisi took a bath, her clingy nature was fully revealed, and she insisted on sleeping with her mother.

Clutching her small pillow, she ran to Lin Caiwei's side and sweetly whined:

"Mom finally came home, and Sisi hasn't slept with her in so long. I'm definitely going to sleep with Mom tonight!"

Lin Caiwei looked at her with a mixture of helplessness and affection, then looked up at Chen Hao, seeking his opinion.

Chen Hao smiled and nodded gently: "Okay, then let's sleep together."

Lin Caiwei changed into soft pajamas and lay down on the bed.

Sisi lay obediently between the two of them, while Chen Hao lay on the other side of the bed.

The bed in the bedroom is large enough that three people can lie together comfortably without feeling cramped.

Sisi was nestled close to her mother on the left, her little hand wrapped around Lin Caiwei's arm, while her right hand reached out to tug at Chen Hao's clothes.

The little girl was surrounded by her parents, her face full of happiness, and a sweet smile always on her lips.

After settling in, Sisi looked up at Chen Hao with her little face and spoke in a soft, sweet voice:

"Daddy, tell me a story."

Chen Hao cleared his throat gently, softened his voice, and slowly began to tell a bedtime story:

"Once upon a time, in a very, very big forest, lived a cute little rabbit..."

Lin Caiwei lay on her side, gently supporting her head with one hand, quietly watching Chen Hao tell a story.

His voice is warm and deep, his speech is unhurried and gentle, and it has a calming power that is very soothing to listen to.

Sisi listened intently, her big eyes fixed on her father, completely absorbed in the story without fidgeting.

Halfway through the story, drowsiness slowly crept over Sisi.

Her once round eyelids began to droop, as she tried to open her eyes wide to hear the rest of the story.

But the drowsiness grew stronger, the eyelids became heavier, the head began to nod, and the whole person slowly slumped down.

Before long, the little guy couldn't resist the sleepiness any longer and fell into a deep sleep.

Even in her deep sleep, Sisi still had a sweet smile on her face, one little hand tightly clutching the hem of Lin Caiwei's pajamas.

With her other little hand clutching Chen Hao's pajama sleeve, she held tightly to her parents, sleeping soundly and peacefully.

Chen Hao stopped telling his story, turned his head slightly, and looked at Lin Caiwei opposite him.

In the dark bedroom, the light was soft and quiet. Lin Caiwei was also quietly looking at him. Their eyes met, and their gazes intertwined with tenderness.

After a few seconds of silence, Chen Hao spoke first in a soft voice: "You've lost weight, you've really lost a lot of weight."

In the darkness, Lin Caiwei's voice was soft and gentle: "No, my weight hasn't changed much."

"You've really lost weight," Chen Hao said confidently. "Your cheeks are sunken, and you look a bit more haggard than before."

Lin Caiwei subconsciously raised her hand to touch her cheek, without refuting, but just looked at him quietly, her eyes full of tenderness.

"You must be exhausted from all that touring, right?" Chen Hao asked softly.

"It's alright, I can handle the work." Lin Caiwei shook her head gently, her tone carrying a hint of weariness.

"It's when the night is quiet that I can't help but think about Sisi. I can't fall asleep because I'm always worried about whether the children are eating and sleeping well at home."

"She's the same," Chen Hao said softly.

"During the days you were away, she kept calling out 'Mom' all the time. She would say it when she woke up in the morning and before she went to bed at night. She looked forward to your return every day and thought about you every single day."

Lin Caiwei looked down at her daughter's peaceful sleeping face in her arms, her heart aching and tender, filled with guilt and longing.

After a moment of silence, she spoke softly, calling out, "Chen Hao."

"Hmm?" Chen Hao responded.

"Thank you." Her voice was very soft, but full of sincerity.

Chen Hao chuckled softly, his tone gentle: "You're thanking me again."

"Thank you so much," Lin Caiwei said earnestly.

"While I was away from home, you took care of everything at home, big and small, and Sisi's daily life all by yourself. You really worked hard."

Chen Hao didn't say many polite words, but silently reached out and carefully pulled the blanket up to cover Sisi's little shoulders, afraid that the child would catch a cold.

As Lin Caiwei watched his delicate and gentle gestures, an indescribable warmth welled up in her heart. Gentleness, steadiness, and peace of mind—all these beautiful emotions intertwined and filled her entire heart.

She spoke again softly, tentatively asking, "Chen Hao."

"I am here."

"When I'm not home, do you... miss me?"

In the darkness, their eyes met again, tender and lingering.

Chen Hao paused for a brief two seconds, then spoke in a deep, sincere voice, clearly enunciating each word:

"I think about it. I think about it every single day, without missing a single day."

These few simple words carry a heartfelt sincerity.

Lin Caiwei's heart raced instantly, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she felt a sweet warmth in her heart.

She dared not look at him any longer, quickly burying her face in the pillow to hide her shyness, and whispered:

"Me too. I think about you every day too."

After saying that, she obediently shut her mouth and stopped talking.

Looking at her shy and bashful appearance, Chen Hao's smile gradually spread across his lips, gentle and soothing.

The bedroom fell completely silent, without any extra noise.

Only Sisi's even and steady breathing gently lingered in my ears, with the occasional faint car horn sound in the distance, disappearing in an instant.

The air conditioner was running gently, emitting a soft hum, and the thin curtains were swaying slightly in the breeze, creating a tranquil and cozy atmosphere.

Chen Hao slowly closed his eyes, listening to the steady breathing of the two people closest to him. The busyness and fatigue of the past few days completely dissipated, and he slowly relaxed, feeling peaceful and at ease.

Lin Caiwei gently closed her eyes, a faint smile still on her lips. Her heart was warm, and all the fatigue from the journey had vanished.

Not long after, the family of three fell into a deep sleep.

Soft moonlight filtered through the small gaps in the curtains, gently spilling into the bedroom, softly spreading across the bed, quietly enveloping the sleeping family of three, gentle and peaceful, a scene of tranquility and serenity.
