My CEO Husband Has Some Issues - Chapter 534

Chapter 534: Chapter 534: A Single Bed Can’t Fit Two People
Lin Zhiya looked at the man behind the desk, beaming with joy, and began with a grin that was all teeth and no eyes, “Shengxiao, are you still not finished with your work?”

“Just a bit left,” Li Shengxiao felt a hint of suspicion at her expression and raised an eyebrow as he glanced toward Rong Yan, only to find her avoiding his gaze.

With her mind completely filled with her grandchild-making plan, Lin Zhiya didn’t hesitate to say, “If it’s just a bit, you can finish it tomorrow. It’s so late tonight, why don’t you get some rest?”

If he didn’t rest, what was the point of tricking Yan into sharing a room with him after all the trouble she had gone through?

Li Shengxiao’s brows furrowed.

Lin Zhiya went on, “Oh, right, I need to discuss something with you. Yan is staying over tonight, and when I had the butler tidy up the guest room, I accidentally spilled water on the bed. I’m afraid the bed in the guest room won’t be suitable for sleep tonight. I told Yan to just share a room with you for the night.”

She wasn’t there to ask for permission; she was merely there to inform.

What if Shengxiao, that blockhead, didn’t catch on and refused? Wouldn’t her efforts be wasted?

Lin Zhiya’s plans were well thought out, but she hadn’t anticipated an unwilling little voice cutting in, “Grandma, I want to sleep with Mommy too.”

Lin Zhiya hurriedly pulled him over, blinking her eyes as a signal, “My little darling, you should sleep in your own room. Three people squeezing into one bed is too small; we won’t fit. Be good~”

Li Duidui got the hint and became even less willing to comply, but he didn’t want to disappoint Grandma.

Just then, Rong Yan took the initiative to say, “Mrs. Lin, why don’t I sleep with Duidui?”

Lin Zhiya, “…”

“Doesn’t Duidui have his own room? I haven’t seen him for a week, so I can sleep with him tonight, give him a bath, and help him to sleep.”

“…” Lin Zhiya and she stared at each other, utterly frustrated.

She had everything planned out perfectly, never foreseeing such an unexpected twist. The excuse of the guest room bed being accidentally wet was to force the two to share a room.

But now with Rong Yan volunteering to sleep with the little guy, if she insisted on having Yan share a room with Shengxiao, wouldn’t her motives be too obvious?

What if Yan got scared…

As Lin Zhiya hesitated, uncertain whether to agree or to keep pushing the issue, she saw the tall man behind the desk take off his headset and walk over.

With his commanding presence unmistakable from his elevated position, he accurately and unhesitatingly grabbed Rong Yan’s wrist, his face unchanging and eyes burning with intent as he said, “Duidui’s bed is too small; it’s a single bed. If we force two people to squeeze in, they might fall off during the night, which isn’t safe!”

Lin Zhiya quickly found her rationale and supported him, “Yes, yes, how could I forget that. Indeed, Yan, it’s too unsafe! It would be better for you to share a room with Shengxiao.”

Fearing that Rong Yan might have second thoughts, she added, “That’s settled then. You’ve had a long day, so there’s no need to worry about Duidui. I’ll take him to bathe and sleep. You two should rest early.”

As she spoke, she took the reluctantly complying little guy and quickly made for the door, not forgetting to turn back and remind them, “Yan, Shengxiao, it’s getting late; you two should rest soon.”

Resting early would be great; the sooner they rested, the sooner she could hold her granddaughter.

Feeling rather pleased, she took the unwilling Li Duidui out of the study and cheerfully went down to instruct the servants to prepare the nourishing soup…
