Chapter 2051: 2051

Shen Luo’an felt flustered at the sight of her offering him her tender lips .

He lowered his head slightly and gently pecked her on the lips .

He wrapped his arm around her and ached for her when he ran his hand over her gaunt frame .

He reached behind her for the seat belt and strapped her in .

He released her and said, “I’m taking you to eat your favorite food . ”

Shen Manting’s cheeks flushed with joy .

She nodded and gazed at Shen Luo’an with anticipation in her eyes . “You’re so kind to me, hubby,” she said sincerely .

“You’re so kind to me, hubby . ”

He took in each and every word coming from Shen Manting’s mouth – words that she would never have uttered in the past .

Shen Luo’an’s hands were trembling slightly as he fastened her seat belt .

Would she have said that if she knew how much she hated him?

Would she still think of him as a doting husband? Would she even come close to calling him her husband?

The answer was obvious .

But he soon snapped out of his ruminations . “Let’s go . ”

“All right!”

He drove to the Western restaurant that Shen Manting used to like and ordered her favorite dishes .

Shen Manting glanced around the restaurant curiously, as if she had never been there before .

Then, she leaned over to Shen Luo’an and whispered, “Is our family rich, honey?”

Shen Luo’an chuckled . “Why do you think so?”

“I observed that this is a high-end restaurant . I browsed through the menu . A steak costs more than 500 yuan . It’s too expensive . The head warden only gave me a dime to buy some sweets when I behaved myself . ”

Shen Manting felt a little hurt as she spoke .

Suddenly, she clasped her hand over her mouth and asked timidly, “Am I too naive, honey?”

Shen Luo’an felt a twinge of pain in his heart and looked at her wistfully .

He shook his head . “No, you’re fine,” he lied .

Shen Manting vaguely sensed that he was lying .

Yet, she chose not to expose him .

She nodded and fell silent .

Their meal was soon served – a fragrant piece of steak on a fancy plate .

Shen Manting’s eyes widened, but she remained silent .

After the waiter had left, she exclaimed, “Honey, this dish looks nicer than those I saw on television!”

Shen Luo’an smiled and picked up the knife and fork . “Here, I’ll show you how to cut the steak . ”

“Okay!” Shen Manting beamed gleefully .

She observed Shen Luo’an as he demonstrated how to use the cutlery and picked up the skill quickly .

She learned to use the cutlery effortlessly, as if the skill had already been ingrained in her before .

After the satisfying meal, Shen Luo’an took Shen Manting to the shopping mall .

They bought plenty of clothes .

Shen Manting was now unusually thin . After picking out two outfits, she nudged Shen Luo’an, “Honey, I’m still weak . Even the smallest size is too large for me . We’ll leave them for now . Let’s come back to buy them after I gain some bulk . ”

Shen Luo’an nodded with a smile .

They returned home with a considerable load of purchases .

Shen Yuexiao was asleep .

Shen Luo’an and Shen Manting tiptoed into the room .

“Take a bath first . I’ll bring you your pajamas,” Shen Luo’an said .

“All right,” Shen Manting spoke softly as she walked into the bathroom .

Upon entering the bathroom, she was stunned by its spaciousness . “This is a huge bathroom!” she exclaimed .

Shen Luo’an brought her pajamas and smiled at her . “Do you know how to bathe?”

Shen Manting looked at him as if he was a fool . “Do I look dumb to you?”

She grabbed the pajamas from his hands and pushed him out . “Don’t peek at me . ”

Shen Luo’an’s smile widened . He nodded and said, “I’ll wait for you outside . ”

Shen Manting blushed .

She immediately closed the bathroom door, feeling butterflies in her stomach .
