Love at First Novel by Gu Lingfei

Chapter 1128
Duncan was without a word.
Since Duncan’s purpose of being here was to talk about partnership with his best friend, the pair soon got right into it.
Once the duo ironed out all the kinks, Duncan was ready to leave and said, “I’m going to check on Sonny again. I’ll take him out
for some fun if he’s awake.”
“You take him out? I bet he will cry his eyes out while you panic and rush to send him back.”
Duncan choked.
That was right. Sonny did not take kindly to his hugs.
Nevertheless, Duncan went into the private resting room once again. It did not take him long to yell from inside, “Zachary!
Zachary! Hurry!”
“What’s the matter?”
His outcry gave Zachary a scare. Zachary jumped to his feet and raced into the private resting room.
“Sonny wet the bed. Look at the pool of pee on the bed sheet,” Duncan told his best friend as he pointed at the child on the bed.
Zachary was lost for words.
He drew close and removed his jacket before picking Sonny up. Zachary then took off Sonny’s wet pants and held the boy with
the jacket over him. The last thing he wanted was for Sonny to catch a cold.
Since Sonny had been asleep for a while now, he opened his eyes when Zachary was removing his pants.
Seeing that it was Zachary, Sonny curled his lips and mewed, “Uncle Zack.”
“Oh, Sonny’s awake.”
Sonny beamed.

Turning on his heel, Zachary carried Sonny out of the private resting room and lifted the covers off Sonny while telling his friend
who barged into the room, “Duncan, can you remove the bedsheet?”
“Sonny peed on it...”
“What? Can’t take the stench?”
Duncan was speechless.
The smell did not bother him. It was simply his first encounter with a tiny human wetting a bed.
Duncan removed the bedsheet. Recalling that his best friend had a washing machine in the private resting room, Duncan put the
soiled sheets and pants into the washing machine.
He came out of the private resting room to find Sonny sitting on the sofa. The boy was still using his uncle’s jacket as pants.
“Duncan, go and shop for some clothes for Sonny. He needs pants.”
“Oh.” Duncan rushed out to buy Sonny some clothes.
He worked fast and returned with a dozen selections of clothes from a single store that sold children’s wear.
“Zachary, I’m back with the clothes. I don’t know if they are the right size.”
Duncan walked into the office with a huge bag of clothes and uttered, “The quality seems good, so I bought them. Let’s see if
they fit Sonny. I can go get the right size if the clothes don’t fit.”
Since this was his first–time clothes shopping for the boy, he had no idea the size he should get.
Zachary took the bag of clothes. “A couple of sets would do. Why did you get a dozen? Huh? Why is there a dress?”
Duncan replied, puzzled, “Is that a dress? I might have grabbed it by accident.”
Seeing his best friend pull out a long–sleeved dress from the bag, Duncan turned red in the face.
“Uncle Zack, this looks good.”
With a pretty dress catching his eye, Sonny reached out to grab it.

Zachary uttered, “This is a dress, Sonny. It’s for girls. You’re a boy, Sonny. You can’t wear dresses.”
