Shen Luoâanâs body reacted much quicker than his mind, it was as if he was on autopilot.
He dashed into the room immediately and saw Shen Manting staring at the cabinet on the ground somewhat helplessly.
The bedside cabinet that had been positioned beside the bed had been toppled to the ground.
Everything that had been in it is now sprawled across the floor.
Fortunately, there was no glass and nothing was broken.
Shen Luoâan stepped forward to hold Shen Manting, and asked, âWhat happened?â
Shen Manting was in a daze as she replied, âI think Little Manting emerged just now.â
Shen Luoâan pulled her gently into his arms, and carefully asked, âAnd what happened after that?â
âShe pushed the cabinet over. I didnât want her to, so I returned.â Shen Manting hugged him as she continued, âIt was so scary.â
âDonât be scared. Everythingâs still fine, isnât it?â Shen Luoâan comforted her softly. âWash your hands and weâll eat. Weâll come back again to fix this mess later.â
âAlright,â Shen Manting replied quickly. For some unknown reason, Shen Luoâan felt that something was amiss.
He couldnât place his finger on it, but everything definitely felt off to him.
After leading Shen Manting out, both of them washed their hands, and Shen Luoâan scooped out a bowl of rice for Shen Manting and himself.
Shen Manting took the bowl from him, picked up her chopsticks, and began to eat slowly.
She seemed especially fond of the plate of deep-fried pork ribs.
Shen Luoâan glanced at it, and asked, âHow is it?â
âItâs delicious,â Shen Manting replied and glanced at him before continuing, âBut Nanny He does it better.â
When Shen Luoâan heard that answer, his heart sank.
Without giving his true feelings away, he nodded his head with a slight smile, and said, âIâll just have to work harder to improve.â
Shen Manting didnât say anything further, and the rest of the meal passed silently.
Shen Luoâan pretended to have something on his mind. When they were done eating, he glanced at Shen Manting and said, âYou havenât seen your son for some time. Iâve arranged for him to start kindergarten in September. I wonder if heâll be able to adapt.â
âHeâll definitely be able to,â Shen Manting declared confidently. âLittle Yueâer is the smartest kid Iâve ever seen. When September comes, heâll probably be smarter than all the other kids.â
âYeah,â Shen Luoâan concurred without much excitement, and replied offhandedly, âThatâs what I think too.â
Shen Manting had a smile on her face. Having finished her food, she picked up her empty bowl and chopsticks and headed into the kitchen to wash them.
Shen Luoâan watched her back as she was busy in the kitchen, and his heart drowned in despair.
He sent Shen Zhilie a message on WeChat: Zhilie.
[Zhilie]: ?
[Shen Luoâan]: Little Manting is out.
Shen Zhilie was in the midst of packing his belongings, and when he saw the message, his heart dropped. Immediately, he asked: Whatâs the situation now?
[Shen Luoâan]: Sheâs pretending to be the adult Manting.
[Zhilie]: ...
Shen Zhilieâs mind was in a mess.
What does Shen Luoâan words mean?
After a long while, he finally replied: Does she have any violent tendencies?
[Shen Luoâan]: Not at the moment.
[Zhilie]: Stay calm. Qianqian and I will be there tomorrow.
...
By the time Shen Luoâan put his phone away, Shen Manting had already emerged from the kitchen.
âWhat are you busy with?â Shen Manting asked casually as if she didnât care much for the answer.
Shen Luoâan deleted his chat log and followed Shen Zhilieâs advice. Placing his phone down, he walked over to give her a hug, âI was just checking some information.â
âWhat sort of information?â
âHow to decorate a happy home.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Shen Manting blushed slightly and hugged him back. âHm, letâs check that out together.â
âCome, letâs finish packing the room,â Shen Luoâan gave her a gentle peck on her forehead. âLittle Manting was so mischievous. Why did she have to overturn the cabinet?â
An evasive look flashed across Shen Mantingâs eyes as she replied, âPerhaps she was in a bad mood.â
