"Xiaoyou, sing me a song, I want to fall asleep to your singing." Miemie Dragon wanted to emulate a scene from a movie where parents tell bedtime stories or sing lullabies to their children.
Miemie Dragon wanted to experience that feeling too.
"Are you sure you want to hear me sing?" Lu Xiaoyou confirmed with him repeatedly, "Little Miemie, you better think it through, no backing out!"
Miemie Dragon was afraid Lu Xiaoyou might not sing for him, so he spoke seriously, as if declaring to Lu Xiaoyou:
"I absolutely will fall asleep to Xiaoyou's singing!"
After speaking, the child tightly closed his eyes.
Lu Xiaoyou smiled warmly, opened her mouth, and reminded him, "Then I'm going to start singing..."
She hummed a song, her voice enveloping the quiet room. It had been a long time since she last sang, after all, no one was willing or able to listen to her sing.
As Lu Xiaoyou hummed the lullaby, she watched the child's expression.
