Shen Manting immediately tasted a potent mix of the scent of alcohol and tobacco.

She opened her eyes wide, aghast by his sudden advances.

She instinctively tried to break free from him, but just as she reached out and laid her palm on his chest to push him away, Shen Luo’an suppressed her and pushed her back.

Shen Manting struggled with all her might. She laid her hands on his shoulders and tried to push him away.

Yet, Shen Luo’an not only refused to back off, but grasped her even tighter.

Shen Manting winced in pain.

She instantly felt an overwhelming sense of resistance and disgust.

She clamped her mouth shut with such force that the taste of blood immediately filled her mouth.

Shen Luo’an frowned. He looked hazily at Shen Manting with his amber eyes.

His gaze was a mix of confusion and puzzlement.

Shen Manting pushed him away with all her strength at this opportunity.

Shen Luo’an was sent hurtling backward. His head collided against the windowpane without warning.

A loud thud was heard.

A dull yet clearly audible thud.

Shen Manting gagged. She covered her mouth with her hand, opened the car door, and left the scene immediately.

She wiped her mouth, trickling with saliva mixed with blood.

She was thoroughly repelled by the lingering taste of alcohol and tobacco in her mouth.

She rested for a while, but didn’t spit anything out.

Then, Shen Manting turned around to glance at him.

However, she noticed that Shen Luo’an remained in the same position as she had left him, motionless.

She opened the car door and entered the car warily. She reached out toward Shen Luo’an and nudged him.

“Shen Luo’an?”

Yet, Shen Luo’an didn’t stir. He seemed as if...

Did he fall asleep?

Or... did he pass out from the impact of the collision against the window?

“Shen Luo’an?”

Shen Manting felt uneasy. She tried to wake him with a forceful shove.

He remained unresponsive.

She tilted his head slightly to the side and noticed blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.

She felt a chill in her spine and immediately wiped his mouth with a piece of tissue.

The tissue was now soaked with blood!

Did... did she bite him too hard?

She felt a surge of guilt within her.

He was drunk, but she was sober.

Maybe he didn’t even know what he was doing...

She tried to open his mouth, but his jaw was tightly clenched.

Shen Manting had no choice but to resort to the most basic method to wipe the blood off his mouth.

She wiped for a while until there were fewer traces of blood. Then, she started the car.

She drove home and parked the car in the yard. Next, she got out of the car and helped him out.

Shen Luo’an was limp, but was still vaguely conscious. He leaned on her and at the same time, tried to walk a pace or two on his own feet.

He opened his eyes slightly and stared unapologetically at Shen Manting.

Shen Manting felt uncomfortable with his invasive stare and glared sharply back at him. She leaned him against the wall and rang the doorbell.

Mrs. Shen soon came to open the door empty-handed. Shen Manting assumed that the infant had fallen asleep.

Upon seeing Shen Luo’an, Mr. Shen frowned and chided, “Why did you drink so much? You know you’re not a good drinker!”

“Mother, kindly make him a cup of honey water to neutralize the alcohol.” Shen Manting carried him inside, trying hard to suppress her urge to let him crumple onto the floor.

Mrs. Shen replied quickly, “Let me help you carry him in first.”

Shen Luo’an was in a miserable state, but he appeared a bit more sober after entering the house.

“Go to sleep,” Shen Luo’an mumbled hazily in a drunken voice. “I... I’ll take a bath first.”

Mrs. Shen responded hastily, “You’re in no state to take a bath! Go lie down and rest this instant!”

“No... no, the child is inside. I reek of alcohol. The smell will make the child uncomfortable.”

Shen Luo’an took off his suit as he mumbled on.

He released his grip on Shen Manting and stumbled across the room.

Mrs. Shen rushed over to support him, but was pushed away.

Shen Manting stared at him from behind and snapped angrily, “Look at you! What did you drink so much for when you’re no match for others? Now you’re behaving like a violent drunkard!”

Shen Luo’an turned around to glance at her, but didn’t utter a word.

Suddenly, he extended his tongue and touched it.

When Shen Manting noticed his gesture, she felt as though her heart was going to leap out of her chest.

She cast a discreet glance at Mrs. Shen and rushed over to usher Shen Luo’an inside.

Shen Luo’an didn’t push her away and seemed to be very cooperative.

As soon as they entered the room, he slammed the door shut.

He turned around and pressed Shen Manting against the door.

Shen Manting was shocked and blurted, “What are you doing?”

Shen Luo’an stared at her with a dreamy gaze, as though his amber eyes were covered by a layer of mist.

He stared at her for a long time before extending his tongue, saying, “My tongue hurts.”

He was mumbling with his tongue protruding before Shen Manting.

Shen Manting narrowed her eyes at him and replied dismissively, “That has nothing to do with me.”

“I think... I dreamed that you bit me.” Shen Luo’an whined, staring at her with an aggrieved look.

Shen Manting glared at him and pushed him away. She shouted, “Do you have any idea what you have done? Now you still have the nerve to judge me?”

Shen Luo’an felt attacked and said with a straight face, “You... can’t.”

Shen Manting was baffled by his ramblings and tried to push him away, but Shen Luo’an seemed to have regained full consciousness and refused to move even an inch.

“Go away!” Shen Manting hissed in an exasperated voice, “The child is asleep. Don’t you dare pick a fight with me!”

Upon hearing that, Shen Luo’an’s eyes reddened even more. He was now looking at her with tears in his eyes!

Shen Manting had never seen Shen Luo’an like this before. She was startled and yelled at him, “What are you doing?”

Shen Luo’an seemed to be in great pain. He didn’t respond and simply leaned against her.

Shen Manting was distraught. Before she could react, Shen Luo’an pressed his face against her shoulder.

“I dreamed that you kissed me.” Shen Luo’an muttered in a garbled, muffled voice, as he buried his face in her shoulder.

However, Shen Manting heard every word clearly.

She straightened herself and clasped his face in her hands, trying to push him away. “Get lost!” she barked impatiently.

“No way.” Shen Luo’an didn’t move. He leaned against her gently. His voice seemed to crack as he said, “I miss you so much. I’m not leaving.”

Shen Manting’s heart fluttered. She was confused for a moment.

Shen Luo’an was leaning against her quietly, his sinewy hands clutching at her blouse as he bent down and lowered his head. He reeked heavily of alcohol. He looked embarrassing.

He wasn’t his usual self.

Shen Manting looked down at him and nudged him gently. “Go and take a bath.”

“I don’t want to,” Shen Luo’an’s responded in a low voice, behaving like a spoiled child.

“You said you wanted to take a bath!” Shen Manting was annoyed. “Move along now!”

“No.” Shen Luo’an grasped her clothes tightly with his hands. “If I leave, you’re going to run away. What should I do if you abandon me and the child again...”
