“Shen Manting!”
Her name was forced out through Shen Luo’an’s gritted his teeth.
Shen Luo’an’s eyes were bloodshot as he glared at Shen Manting, and it gave her a shock.
She merely stared at him for a long time before she eventually gave him a cold sneer.
Shen Luo’an became even more furious, and he increasingly tightened his grip on her hand.
Shen Manting closed her eyes and remained silent as she hugged the baby even more tightly.
When Shen Luo’an saw her reaction, he forced himself to restrain his anger, and then he irritably swung her hand away.
“I’ll go take a shower. See what happens if you dare to lock the door.” After saying this, he kicked the door open and walked out of the room.
The lights were off in the rest of the apartment, and it was completely dark.
Shen Manting immediately stood up and closed the door straightaway before locking it from the inside.
After she turned off the lights, she carried the child over to the bed and lay down.
Strangely, when Shen Luo’an heard her movements from inside the room, the fire burning in his heart calmed down slightly.
He stared at the pitch-black surroundings and breathed in deeply.
It seemed to be a sigh, but yet it didn’t at the same time.
“Childish.”
After Shen Luo’an took a shower, he conveniently fished out a key from the drawer before opening the door and walking into the room.
Shen Manting was breastfeeding the baby, and the lights were off in the room.
When she heard the sound of the door opening, her body trembled in fright.
By the time she looked up and focused her eyes, Shen Luo’an had already flicked the lights on.
When he saw how Shen Manting looked as if she’d just seen a ghost, he burst into laughter before casually tossing the keys onto the cabinet beside the bed.
Shen Luo’an took off his shoes, and after he threw the blankets aside, he prepared to lay down on the bed.
Shen Manting felt even more stunned, and she bounced up onto her feet as she yelled angrily, “What do you want?”
“I want to sleep.” Shen Luo’an wasn’t embarra.s.sed in the slightest, and he took a glance outside the room. “It’s cold out there. It’s more toasty to sleep in here.”
As Shen Manting was breastfeeding the baby, her fair stomach was exposed.
Shen Luo’an took one glance at it, and his body actually began to feel extremely hot.
His lips and mouth turned rather parched, and he turned his head aside as he said, “Go to sleep after you’re done breastfeeding. I won’t do anything to you.”
He had already lay down in bed as he said this.
Shen Manting turned aside slightly, and all the hair on her body stood on end.
She watched him and said, “You can sleep here, then. I’ll sleep somewhere else.”
She sounded slightly afraid, and her voice inevitably quivered with anger.
When she said this, Shen Luo’an’s face darkened.
He directly got out of bed and closed the door before locking it from the inside. “You’ll sleep here.”
Shen Manting felt terrible, as if someone were stabbing at her heart.
She gritted her teeth and looked at him before glancing at the baby.
She stood there for quite some time and soon felt a chill come over her.
It was the first month of the Lunar New Year, and it definitely wasn’t a warm time of the year.
She found it slightly unbearable by the time she was done breastfeeding.
“It’s cold!”
“Hand him over to me.” Shen Luo’an reached out his arms and glanced at Little Yue’er.
Shen Manting was obviously unwilling, and after glancing at Shen Luo’an, she sat down on the bed with the child in her arms.
But Shen Luo’an couldn’t care less about her, and he directly reached out his arms and took the baby from her.
Her heart jolted, and just when she was about to say something, she saw the strange look of joy on Shen Luo’an’s face.
As if she were under the influence of inexplicable forces, she loosened her grip, and the baby was taken from her.
Little Yue’er was over half a month old, and this was the second time that Shen Luo’an had gotten to hold him.
The tiny baby definitely felt heavier compared to the last time he held him.
Although the baby hadn’t grown much, Shen Luo’an could clearly notice the change.
Shen Luo’an’s eyes crinkled into a smile, and his heart seemed to have melted as he said softly, “Daddy’s darling.”
A wave of emotions rippled through Shen Manting’s heart, and she instantly felt her heart wrench.
Shen Luo’an had a gentle expression on his face, and he looked very much like a cultured man from a rich family.
“No. He’d always looked like a refined, kind, and cultured man in the presence of outsiders.”
