Chapter 2134: The Mere Thought of It Was Exciting
It was already past ten in the morning, and everyone at home who was supposed to leave for work had already left.
Nanny He brought Little Yue’er out to play while Ye Qianqian sat on the couch outside, ready to rush over if the need arose.
At the same time, the two individuals in the room sat facing each other, neither of them in a rush to say the first word.
Shen Manting twirled her hair with her fingers. She then took a sip of soybean milk and nibbled at her bread, waiting for Shen Luo’an to break the silence.
However, even after she was done with breakfast, the man in front of her still hadn’t said a single word.
Unable to hold it in any longer, Shen Manting looked at him with a frown and asked, “Didn’t you say that you wanted to talk to me?”
“Yeah,” Shen Luo’an replied. “Manting, you haven’t seen your son since you woke up, have you?”
With that, he stood up and said, “I’ll carry our son here.”
Shen Manting was flummoxed and protested with a frown, “Shen Luo’an, just what the h.e.l.l are you up to?”
However, Shen Luo’an very quickly opened the door and walked out, ignoring her question.
When Ye Qianqian heard the commotion, she immediately craned her neck to glance over.
Shen Luo’an paid no heed to her and quickly went over to his son. “Sweetie, do you miss Mommy?”
Little Yue’er was in the midst of playing with his wooden blocks. Upon hearing the question, he immediately got up and nodded his head. “Yeah!” he exclaimed.
Shen Luo’an picked the toddler up and returned to the room quickly.
At the very moment he entered the room, Ye Qianqian looked over to them again.
Shen Luo’an closed the door behind him and turned around with his son in his arms.
“Mommy!” Little Yue’er called out cheerily as he opened his arms towards Shen Manting. “I missed you so much!”
Shen Manting stared at this child in a daze, her mind unable to process what was going on.
This was… indeed her son.
Shen Luo’an made his way over with Shen Manting and handed the toddler over to her.
Still in a daze, Shen Manting took the child from him. The little kid willingly went over to her and planted a huge kiss on her mouth. “Mommy! Kiss!” he demanded.
Although that’s what the little child demanded verbally, his actions said something else altogether.
He struggled in Shen Manting’s arms and eventually wrapped his arms around her neck as he stood up on her lap.
Throughout the whole process, Shen Manting was completely unreactive, apart from her hands which moved subconsciously.
As she looked at Shen Yuexiao’s extremely familiar looking face, nothing felt wrong.
But at the same time, she found the whole situation unbelievable.
This wasn’t supposed to be how it was. But yet, it felt right.
It was a very strange feeling.
Shen Manting lowered her head as she held Shen Yuexiao in her arms. “Little Yue’er,” she called out.
“Mommy!” Little Yue’er was very excited to hear Shen Manting call him. “Ride the rocking horse!” he exclaimed in reply.
“You want to ride the rocking horse?” Shen Manting smiled gently, “Shall Mommy take you there?”
“Yes!” Little Yue’er was clearly very excited. “Wear shoes!”
“Alright, Mommy will take you there.” Shen Manting got up and walked out without a second thought with the child in her arms.
Without directions or reminders from anyone, she carried the toddler into the nursery.
From outside, Ye Qianqian saw Shen Manting walking in and instinctively stood up to follow her in.
When Shen Manting noticed Ye Qianqian, she asked in surprise, “Qianqian, aren’t you supposed to be at work?”
Upon hearing the question, Ye Qianqian laughed sheepishly, seeming a little embarra.s.sed. “I’ve stopped working for some time,” she replied. “What are you up to?”
“I’m helping Little Yue’er put on his shoes. We’re going to the playground in a moment. He wants to go,” Shen Manting replied as she put Shen Yuexiao down to look for his shoes for him.
This was the first time in her life that Ye Qianqian was facing someone with a split personality, and the mere thought of it was exciting.
