Chapter 891: Chapter 870 Why is Your Face So Red?

"Of course, that’s great news!" Michael Gordon didn’t even think before chiming in, "With an official status, it’ll be much more convenient for you to take care of my treasure. Rolling in the bed sheet is now justified, no need for sneaking around!"

Oliver Thompson: "..."

"Uncle Gordon, we didn’t roll in the bed sheets!"

If he didn’t clarify now, his little Sister Bianca would get even angrier. She was already upset about them being seen together, embarrassed by what others might think, "We just slept on the same bed, that’s all!"

Bella Gordon: "..."

That explanation might as well not have been given!

She really didn’t want to say it; it was too embarrassing to bring up!

Hearing this, Mr. Gordon made a very calm remark: "Well, even better if you didn’t roll in the bed sheets. Saving it for the engagement night isn’t so bad either!"

Bella Gordon: "..."

How could she have such a dad?

The engagement was about her, yet from start to finish, no one had even asked for her opinion!

Bella Gordon realized that ever since Brother Roy showed up, she had been completely ignored, as if she had no status at all. Even with something as significant as an engagement, with her right there, no questions were asked!

With her dissatisfaction, of course, she couldn’t vent towards her dad or mom. So, the only outlet became Brother Roy next to her. Bella Gordon instinctively turned to glare at him but noticed the man looking rather embarrassed, his head low and his neck to his ears visibly flushed.

A clear case of blushing!

Was Brother Roy blushing?

So, even big guys can feel shy, huh? This realization gave Bella Gordon a sense of achievement because she wasn’t shy at all. It’s just the phrase "to roll in bed sheets," which she had been hearing all her life, okay?

Ivy Aretha had always been outspoken with Michael Gordon, and that phrase was all too familiar in Bella Gordon’s world. But Oliver Thompson was not!

"Brother Thompson, what does rolling in bed sheets mean?" Just when things couldn’t get more awkward, someone still insisted on not letting it go. While Oliver Thompson’s face was getting hotter, Nana Jensen, who had been sitting beside Chani Gordon and Rio Gordon, looked at Oliver curiously and asked. When Oliver didn’t answer, she pressed on, "Is rolling in bed sheets something very embarrassing? Brother Thompson, your face is all red!"

Oliver Thompson: "..."

Bella Gordon: "..."

With that question, Oliver Thompson’s face turned completely red. He was a nineteen-year-old youth in the prime of his life, just starting to understand matters of men and women, hadn’t yet truly experienced it, and was still at the stage of knowing only about physiological responses, not yet understanding the unity of body and soul.

"How can you be so spineless? A man should be happy at the mention of rolling in bed sheets. What’s with sitting there and blushing?"

Just as Oliver Thompson was at a loss for how to respond to Nana’s question, Oliver Thompson’s voice, lazy yet firm, came from the entrance, the pleasant sound laced with a teasing laugh, "So useless, I’m starting to doubt he’s mine."

Oliver Thompson: "..."

Useless?

He wasn’t impotent, so how could he be considered useless?

"Oliver Thompson, if you dare say my son is useless again, go sleep in the study room when you get home!" Julie Harrison rolled her eyes in exasperation, "If the son is useless, the father isn’t much better. Since you can’t bring me happiness, don’t bother me at night!"

Oliver Thompson: "..."

"Alright, alright, I was wrong, your son is awesome. Can we agree on that now, honey?"

In front of his wife, Oliver Thompson was always accustomed to backing down.

"It seems like we really do need to talk about marriage, huh!" Lina Miller chuckled as she gently touched Nana Jensen’s head, glancing at the two couples, "Should I step out for a bit, or play the role of a witness right now?"

"Of course, you should be the witness!"

Oliver Thompson and Michael Gordon almost spoke in unison. Lina was their good friend, and at a time like this, they wouldn’t think of sending her away; they naturally welcomed her to stay.

Nana Jensen’s beautiful big eyes glanced at Roy Thompson and then at Bella Gordon, shuttling back and forth among the four adults, as if she had no understanding of the true meaning of the phrase "rolling in the bed sheets."

If Sister Bianca’s daddy says so and even Brother Thompson’s dad says so!

"Why do all of you like rolling in bed sheets so much?"

Such an innocent question was blurted out.

"Pfft!"

The response didn’t come from four astonished adults but from the snickers of a pair of twins sitting beside her. When these twins were together, it was almost always Chani Gordon, the canary-like one, who spoke first, "Sister Nora, are you really twelve years old? Why are your questions more childish than those of us who are ten? You don’t know about rolling in bed sheets?"

Nana Jensen: "..."

Who decided that she must know what rolling in bed sheets means?

The teacher had never taught it, it never appeared in textbooks or extracurricular guidance books, not even in cram school. It was pretty obvious that her not knowing was only too normal!

Why did it seem abnormal in their eyes?

"I don’t believe you know!" Nana Jensen retorted, a bit unconvinced as she looked at Chani Gordon. But eventually, her gaze returned to Roy Thompson’s blushing face, trying to discern the true meaning of the word from his not-so-normal expression!

"Hi, they say you’re naive, but you really aren’t up to the mark, we definitely know what rolling in bed sheets means!" Chani Gordon looked down at Sister Nora, who usually knew a bit more than her, with absolute disdain. A sense of achievement instantly filled her heart. "Of course, I know. It’s just rolling in bed sheets. Everyone does it. When you grow up, you’ll do it too!"

Ah!

She’d have to roll in bed sheets when she grew up?

Could it be like Brother Thompson and Sister Bianca hugging each other in their clothes this morning?

"Why does everyone have to roll in bed sheets when they grow up?" Nana Jensen became a bit curious, "Does it count as rolling in bed sheets just by hugging each other?"

"Because if you don’t roll in bed sheets, you can’t have babies. If you don’t have babies, humanity will be extinct. So, everyone has a duty to roll in bed sheets! For example, your dad had to roll in bed sheets with your mom to have you. If they hadn’t, you wouldn’t have been born!"

"Oh, so that’s how it is!"

Nana Jensen nodded somewhat as if she had an epiphany, yet the explanation Roy Thompson and Bella Gordon had given her when they were younger flashed through her mind: babies come when daddy bullies mommy. But she indeed had never heard about rolling in bed sheets before!

Seeing that Sister Nora, who was two years older than herself, was so eager to learn from her, young Chani’s self-confidence soared. Proud and beaming, she launched into a lengthy explanation, "Also, it’s not just any two people hugging. It has to be a man and a woman wrapped together in a quilt, just like we saw Brother Roy and my sister earlier. That’s what’s called rolling in bed sheets!"

Roy Thompson: "..."

Bella Gordon: "..."
