Chapter 417: Grandma’s new wheels.
When she returned from her morning run, she found Mei-Mei sleeping lazily on Black guard’s back near the door way. She was in her pink dinosaur onesie and in one hand she was holding a bottle of milk. She was practically using Blackguard as her mattress or cushion. Not that Blackguard cared anyway, his eyes were closed and he was sleeping.
Chi Lian scooped her daughter up and carried her upstairs, "Ho, if it isn’t the dinosaur princess, what are you doing down here?"
"Waiting for mummy." Mei-Mei answered. She let go of the bottle of milk to grab Chi Lian’s cheeks and it fell down.
The bottle of milk rolled down the stairs and the robot vacuum cleaner came and cleaned all the spilled milk up within a few seconds. The little robot vacuum cleaner had little spider like legs which enabled it to climb stairs. The old madam said that those legs were it’s most useful feature. Little monk had named the vacuum robot Toto.
A maid picked up the milk bottle and took it to the kitchen.
"Next time be careful with your bottle." she told Mei-Mei.
"Yes mummy." Mei-Mei replied and smiled. Her tiny teeth were all on display for Chi Lian to see.
They went to the bedroom and Muyang was still under the covers. He was laying down with his face up and one arm covering his eyes. Chi Lian realized that she had never seen Muyang sleeping in. He always woke up before she did and often slept after she did.
She was struggling between the need to wake him up and the desire to allow him have his much needed rest.
"Daddy, mummy I see daddy." Mei-Mei told her.
"I see him too." she answered.
