The 99th Divorce

Chapter 1956: Please Leave, I Don’t Want to See You

“I know that!”

Shen Manting’s feelings were clear.

“To return home with him though?” she thought.

She looked up and glanced at Shen Luo’an, and her eyes were full of resistance.

“If I returned home with him, only endless torment would await me. I managed to escape after so much difficulty, and he wants me to go back with him? Isn’t that wishful thinking?”

“It’s fine, even if you don’t come home. Discharge yourself from the hospital first, and I’ll recruit a nanny to take care of you.” Shen Luo’an stood erect and condescendingly looked down at her. “Grandmother really wanted to see the baby, but she couldn’t free herself to come here. Zhilie recently brought his girlfriend home.”

“Oh,” Shen Manting replied. “You can take a photo, then.”

Shen Luo’an’s face darkened, and he watched her, saying, “It’s best for you to return home with me.”

“Do you think that’s possible?” she asked.

“Grandmother’s getting on in age. And honestly speaking, she didn’t treat you badly.”

“Yes, but a certain someone treated me badly.” Shen Manting lowered her head. “You should leave. What happens to me and my child is none of your business.”

“It’s my child.”

“You’re shameless.” Shen Manting glared at him furiously. “Since when did my child become yours?”

Shen Manting didn’t bother to keep her voice down, and many people in the ward turned to look over at them.

However, as if Shen Luo’an were unaffected by it, he said, “If it’s not my child, then who did you have it with? The air?”

“I had it with someone else!” Shen Manting could sense all the looks being thrown in their direction by the people around them.

She felt slightly angry, but she quickly replied in a low voice, “I don’t want to debate this with you here. Please leave!”

“All right. In that case, I’ll go settle your discharge papers.” Shen Luo’an had already turned around and walked away.

When Shen Manting heard him, she became furious and said, “Shen Luo’an, why are you such a busybody?”

But Shen Luo’an pretended as though he didn’t hear what she had said, and continued walking.

The other mothers in the ward exchanged looks.

Shen Manting could clearly hear the conversation between one mother and the mother on the bed next to hers.

“I thought she was pregnant and unmarried, but it turns out she has a man.”

“He’s pretty handsome, so why does she behave like that toward him?”

“And he’s a pretty decent guy too. He didn’t even wake her up while she was sleeping, and he stood there for such a long time. But the moment she woke up, they started arguing.”

“Sigh. Some people take things for granted. If my man was that handsome, I would die of happiness.”

“…” Shen Manting felt like she was on pins and needles. As she looked down at the baby in her arms, she wanted to get up.

She hadn’t used the washroom in a long time, and she felt like using the toilet.

Still holding the baby in her arms, she got up off the bed, but the moment she did, her legs felt weak and she nearly fell. She steadied herself by grabbing hold of the side of the bed, and then she walked over to the bathroom.

There was a changing table in the washroom for mothers, and Shen Manting placed her child on it. After she used the toilet, she went back out.

The moment she stepped out of the washroom, she saw Shen Luo’an’s worried face.

When he caught sight of Shen Manting, he relaxed and heaved a sigh of relief. “What’s wrong with you?” he asked. “Did you need to bring the child with you, even when you’re just using the washroom? What if you slipped?”

Shen Manting felt a pang in her heart.

“Haha…” she thought. “As expected, a man who doesn’t love a woman would only be concerned about a strange thing like that. He was actually worried about whether or not I would slip and drop the baby?”

Shen Manting’s lips curled as she carried the child and walked to her bed.

“Let me hold it.” Shen Luo’an looked at the child’s pinkish little face, and felt a longing in his heart.

This was his first child.

“That’s not necessary,” Shen Manting said as she sat back down on the bed and threw back the blankets. “Please leave. I don’t want to see you.”
