Chapter 1970: 1970

The baby was very well-behaved .

Shen Manting washed her hands and then sat down at the table after getting a bowl of rice .

Shen Luo’an did the same and sat down beside her .

There were several delicious dishes in front of them . She and Shen Luo’an were sitting right next to each other, but she didn’t even choose to avoid him .

Even Shen Manting herself didn’t realize that her tolerance for Shen Luo’an had improved over the past month .

Shen Luo’an glanced at her and secretly grinned .

“Umm, sir…”

Aunt Lin wiped her hands with her apron, and her face was covered with a thin layer of sweat .

Shen Manting and Shen Luo’an glanced at her .

Aunt Lin sounded a little apologetic . “You see, Manting is done with her postpartum confinement, and I only promised to take care of her until her confinement was over . So, I won’t be coming back tomorrow . ”

Shen Manting was a bit surprised . “So soon?”

“Well,” she said, looking somewhat guilty, “My daughter’s about to give birth, and she’s been urging me to come home these days . ”

Shen Luo’an frowned . Shen Manting felt this was a little too sudden .

Aunt Lin’s skills were good, and she was friendly, too . The best thing about her was her meticulousness .

She’d been teaching her all this month .

Aunt Lin managed to sort out all Sheng Manting’s postpartum issues, which should have been done by Manting’s mother .

Yet, all of a sudden, she was telling them that she needed to leave, and Shen Manting was reluctant to let her go .

Seeing their reactions, Aunt Lin said, “Back then, I promised to do this for a month because of the high salary and because it fit my daughter’s schedule . Besides, aren’t you going back to the capital? How about I continue working for you until you return to the capital? Just for a few more days . Would you be fine with that?”

Back to the capital?

Shen Manting’s heart dropped, and she silently glanced at Shen Luo’an .

Shen Luo’an wasn’t surprised by this . He nodded and said, “Okay . Thank you for being here for us during this time, Aunt Lin . ”

Aunt Lin finally let out a sigh of relief and said, “No problem . Anytime . ”

Aunt Lin soon left .

Afterward, Shen Manting continued eating, but the delicious food was now tasteless .

Back to the capital?

She wouldn’t go back .

It was just that Shen Luo’an was from the capital .

In the past month, he’d been here all the time besides for returning to the capital occasionally .

She couldn’t stay in Jiangnan all her life, could she?

Shen Manting felt annoyed again .

It was supposed to be a happy day, but she wasn’t happy anymore .

“If you don’t want to go back, you can wait a while,” Shen Luo’an said . “The baby’s already a month old . I’ve told my parents about the household registration issue . ”

“On your household?” Shen Manting looked at him with a reluctant expression on her face .

Shen Luo’an put down his chopsticks and said, “My parents and my grandmother are looking forward to seeing Little Moon . Since the baby was born, they’ve mentioned more than once that they want to come see you and their grandson . ”

Shen Manting’s expression became somewhat nasty .

“But I was afraid you wouldn’t agree, that they’d scare you, so I didn’t let them come . ” Shen Luo’an looked at her . “They’re already getting old, and this will be their first grandson . ”

“Well, I’m not young either,” she said in a low voice . “This is my first child . ”

“And he’s my first child, too . ” Shen Luo’an’s gaze was gentle and kind . “Manting, come back with me, won’t you?”

“Go back?” Shen Manting sneered . “For you to treat me like your slave and be imprisoned and raped by you?”

Shen Manting’s eyes were red with anger and visible hatred .

Shen Luo’an’s expression turned ugly, and his gentle tone disappeared . “Don’t be unreasonable! I’m talking to you nicely!”
