Chapter 2032: His Reaction
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
He suddenly remembered his “reaction” last night.
He vaguely recalled rubbing himself against a pillow or something in bed.
Could it be...
He observed Shen Manting’s expression and was suddenly overcome by an awful feeling in the pit of his stomach.
Could it be that the “object” he rubbed against last night was actually a person?
He felt uneasy. When he noticed the dismay on Shen Manting’s face, he deliberately shifted his gaze away and asked cautiously, “You weren’t pushed off the bed by me... were you?”
Both Mother He and Mrs. Shen laughed. Shen Longyue, who was sitting at the dining table, glanced at them curiously.
Shen Manting felt enraged by their laughter. She frowned and snapped, “Some nerve you have! You know you can’t drink as much as the others. You were so drunk you ended up sitting in the bathtub. If I didn’t sacrifice my sleep to get you out, you would have slept in the bathtub the whole night!”
Her words seemed to have jogged his memory of last night’s incident.
It seemed...
He really did make a drunken fool of himself last night.
He felt a little guilty, but adamantly refused to admit his mistake. He stared at Shen Manting and scoffed indignantly. “If that’s true, you should have just let me sleep in the bathtub. It’s a cool and comfortable place to sleep in.”
Shen Manting thought he was being unreasonable. She stood up with her baby in her arms and decided not to speak to him again.
Shen Luo’an glared at her and started eating oranges.
Mother He soon served him the hangover remedy. She shot Shen Luo’an a disapproving look as she walked over to him and admonished, “Couldn’t you say something nice to her?”
“What could I say?” Shen Luo’an thought she was being ridiculous. He glanced at the piping hot bowl of soup in front of him. “I have a headache. Please pass me the painkiller.”
“You’ll be fine after drinking this hangover remedy and getting some rest.” Mother He wiped her hands. “Have your breakfast after drinking it up. Too much alcohol is bad for your stomach.”
“I know.” Shen Luo’an lifted the bowl in his hands and drank the soup, grimacing. Then, he headed for the dining table.
Shen Manting placed the infant back in the crib. Her stomach was already rumbling with hunger after the trouble she went through last night.
But when she was about to walk to the dining table for breakfast, she noticed Shen Luo’an sitting at the table.
She turned around and walked away.
Shen Luo’an frowned, but didn’t say a word.
After having a light breakfast, he went back to his room to rest.
Shen Manting was sorting the infant’s clothes and folding them into a pile in the room. At the sight of Shen Luo’an walking into the room, she bundled up the clothes and stored them in the disinfecting cabinet in the next room.
Shen Luo’an noticed something.
This woman was avoiding him again!
He was upset. He covered his head with his blanket and closed his eyes.
But he couldn’t fall asleep.
He tossed and turned in bed as he tried to recall what had happened the night before.
Yet, thinking about last night’s incident gave him a throbbing headache.
“Damn it!”
He learned that it was indeed possible for a man to suffer a mental blackout after drinking too much.
His tongue still hurt. She had bit it till it bled.
He needed some time to sort out his thoughts first.
Shen Manting saw him as a beastly animal. It was impossible for her to willingly kiss him.
The only possibility was that he kissed her in his drunken state.
Then, she bit his tongue. His tongue still hurt.
Besides, he vaguely recalled feeling someone touching him last night until he gave a “reaction.”
Shen Luo’an immediately sat up at the thought.
The door opened.
Shen Manting came in, holding a few milk bottles in her hands. She saw him sitting on the bed, but decided not to look at him. She silently arranged the bottles in their dedicated disinfecting cabinet.
