Chapter 2020: 2020

Shen Luo’an was so sleepy that he didn’t bother opening his eyes, even when he felt a harsh shove in his arm .

He lifted his hand to grab hers . He turned around and asked, “What’s the matter?”

“You look after the baby . I’m going to get some sleep,” Shen Manting said irritably . “If I wasn’t here, you wouldn’t even bother to tend to the baby, would you? He was crying himself hoarse . He must have been starving!”

Shen Luo’an finally opened his eyes .

His droopy eyes seemed as though glazed over with a layer of mist .

He stared at Shen Manting and said softly, “But you’re here now, aren’t you?”

Shen Manting fell speechless for a moment .

She recoiled from his grip and retaliated, “So you’re not even going to try to bother with him if I’m around, are you?”

“You’ll take care of him . ” Shen Luo’an yawned and looked fatigued . “I’m exhausted after a long day at work . Do you want the baby to lose his father after having lost his mother?”

What was he trying to imply?

Shen Manting felt provoked and became frustrated . “What do you mean? How would taking care of a child tire you to death?”

“It’s only a matter of time . ” Shen Luo’an pulled the blanket over his head . His voice sounded muffled . “Why don’t you sleep here and keep an eye on the child? I might be too tired to wake up when he cries . ”

“Shen Luo’an!” Shen Manting was fuming mad . “I haven’t had my bath yet!”

“Then go and take a bath and come back inside to check on him . ”

“No, I’m not sleeping here!”

“What’s wrong with sleeping here? You didn’t even toss and turn at night . You were able to sleep soundly last night, weren’t you?” Shen Luo’an wrapped himself in his blanket . “The baby needs to be tended to . What’s the point of having you here if you don’t bother to look after him?”

Shen Manting was speechless . She struggled to find a fitting comeback . After a long pause, she blurted angrily, “How is it proper for a nanny to sleep in the same room with her employer?”

“You’re the child’s mother,” Shen Luo’an quickly turned his back to her . “A mother should stay in the same room with her child . Just stay here . I’m too sleepy to keep on arguing . ”

Shen Manting was enraged by his words . She looked at him, bundled up between the sheets, and pushed him with all her might . “You’re a shameless bastard!”

Shen Luo’an kept silent and lay still .

In a few seconds, he had fallen asleep .

Shen Manting stomped her feet in anger .

She stood up and hastily walked out of the room .

However, as soon as she stepped out of the room, the infant began crying .

Shen Manting waited at the door for a while to see if Shen Luo’an would respond .

True enough, he slept like a log and didn’t respond at all!

The infant wailed even louder; Shen Manting was boiling with anger .

He was such a jerk!

She stomped forward and picked up the infant . She instinctively felt for his rear and noticed that his diaper was soiled with a slimy substance .

After wiping the infant’s rear and changing his diaper, she managed to coax him to sleep . Shen Manting was finally free to take a bath .

She felt fresh and rejuvenated afterward .

She checked the time . It was almost 2 a . m .

She entered Shen Luo’an’s room and turned off the lights in the house .

The infant woke up again in the middle of the night . He opened his eyes and looked around .

Shen Manting reached out and lightly pinched his petite hand . Her heart was filled with affection .

The infant yawned . He couldn’t fight the sleepiness anymore and gradually closed his eyes .

The infant finally fell asleep . Shen Manting felt sleepy, too .

She glanced at the broad bed .

The bed was large . Shen Luo’an was now huddled on the edge of it against the wall .

She hesitated for a moment and recalled that both of them had slept in the same way a few months ago, when they were in Jiangnan .

They were lying in the same bed together, but he didn’t do anything to her .
