Lu Jiao immediately declined, "No."
Xie Yunjin playfully clutched his chest, as if he had been hurt.
This act caused the four little ones to think that he was experiencing heart pain. They quickly rushed up, concerned, "Is Daddy's heart hurting? Let me give you a massage."
"Let mommy check what's wrong with you."
"Daddy, how about I tell you a story? Mommy said it distracts you and makes the pain feel less."
The Fourth Born chimed in, "Daddy, how about I sing you a song? Mommy said my singing is very pleasant and listening to it makes you feel better."
Observing the children react so anxiously due to a simple action, Xie Yunjin was about to speak to reassure them, but unexpectedly, the First Born suddenly turned to Lu Jiao.
"Mommy, daddy isn't feeling well. Can you sleep with him tonight?"
Xie Yunjin's words were halted instantly, and he turned his gaze toward Lu Jiao with an eager expression.
