Chapter 2083 - Wow, the Red Booklet!
The 99th Divorce
Shen Manting blushed and rushed into the bathroom.
Her body was feeling too sore already, so she could not stand it anymore.
The odd numbness and pain in her legs nearly made Shen Manting stumble and fall on her way.
Shen Luoâan reached out and tried to help her over. However, this made Shen Mantingâs face grow even hotter instead.
Abashed, she pushed him away and waddled towards the bathroom with weird steps.
After closing the door, Shen Manting looked in the mirror, only to discover that her neck was full of dense, purplish marks.
It looked a bit scary. Shen Manting was shocked by the sight.
She poked the marks, which evoked a painful sensation.
She soaked a towel in hot water and rested it on her neck for a while. It left her skin red, but the marks still did not disappear.
Around half an hour later, she finally went out of the toilet.
Shen Luoâan saw her coming out and said, âCome here.â
Shen Manting saw a silk scarf on his hand. She walked up to him with her cheeks blushing and let him put the scarf around her neck.
After heading out the bedroom, Shen Luoâan brought her to Mrs. Shen.
Mrs. Shen was a little stunned to see her and exclaimed, âManting is looking so beautiful today. Are you going out?â
âYes,â Shen Luoâan answered. âMom, could you help do Mantingâs makeup? Just some light coverage.â
âWhy? What are you going to do?â Mrs. Shen grinned and asked, âYou both are dressed so nicely! Are you going to see someone? Or are you going to get married?â
Shen Luoâan seemed a little embarrassed and said, âDonât worry about me. Just apply some makeup on her first.â
âFine!â Mrs. Shen hissed. She grabbed Shen Mantingâs arm and pulled her into her room. âCome on, Manting used to do makeup better than I do.â
Shen Manting walked inside and saw a pile of shiny cosmetics on Mrs. Shenâs dressing table.
The sight of the makeup gave her a familiar feeling.
After letting Mrs. Shen apply her foundation, Shen Manting was eager to try it herself. âMom, I would like to try applying the makeup myself,â she said.
Mrs. Shen smiled with delight. Sure enough, Shen Manting managed to finish applying her entire face with makeup after a while.
At one point, Mrs. Shen noticed the odd dark marks on her neck when Manting raised her hands.
They looked rather awful.
When Shen Manting was wiping her blush, she noticed her gaze and immediately felt a rush in her head.
In a hurry, she tried to cover her neck with a silk scarf.
However, Mrs. Shen had seen through her, but she decided to not say anything about it. She simply remarked, âYour makeup technique is still quite good. Ah, I couldnât do it better than you.â
Shen Manting felt slightly embarrassed. She remained silent and kept her head down.
When they stepped out of the house, Shen Luoâan was shocked at the sight of her.
Seeing Shen Manting like this reminded him of that younger, bubbly sister who always had high spirits.
Shen Manting used to go out every day looking gorgeous and polished.
Since she was highly skilled at her job, she naturally got promoted swiftly.
She was always dressed in professional outfits and gave off a mature, grounded impression.
Now, however, when she looked at him, she seemed to be a bit timid and shy.
Her pure and innocent eyes made him feel more pity in the heart.
âHoney, Iâm ready!â Shen Manting smiled at him and asked, âWhere are we going?â
Shen Luoâan seemed to have snapped out of his trance and replied clumsily, â...Letâs go.â
He extended his arm and held Shen Mantingâs hand.
Shen Manting followed him into the car with pink cheeks.
Shen Luoâan seemed to have planned this for a long time. As soon as he sat down, he pulled out a velvet box from his pocket.
