Chapter 2052: My heart hurtsHer heart was beating wildly .
Shen Manting was in a pleasant mood . She hummed a tune as she took off her clothes and stepped into the shower .
She turned on the shower and ran the water . As she was testing the temperature, she suddenly realized something strange .
Back in the orphanage, she used to manually heat the bathwater by bringing it to a boil .
Why did she know how to operate appliances as advanced as the water heater?
Shen Manting suddenly felt a little excited and muttered, “Looks like I’m a genius . ”
She happened to run her hands over her breasts in the shower .
The bulge appeared huge!
It was too large to even fit in her palm when she held it . How did it grow this big when she was so thin?
She realized that nearly every part of her body felt awkwardly different as she left the shower .
Shen Manting changed into her clean pajamas and walked out of the bathroom . Her wet hair was wrapped in a towel .
Shen Luo’an was fiddling with something discreetly . He quickly tucked his hands under the sheets when she saw her coming out, as if hiding something from her .
Shen Manting blushed and wondered aloud, “What are you doing, honey?”
“Nothing . ” Shen Luo’an stood up . “Dry your hair so that you don’t catch a cold . ”
“Don’t worry . ” Shen Manting waved her arms about . “There’s heating in the room, so it’s not too cold . ”
“Sit down . ”
“All right . ”
Shen Manting sat on the bed obediently . She couldn’t resist taking a look under the blanket out of curiosity .
Shen Luo’an noticed her little gesture but pretended not to see it .
He removed the towel from her head and dried her hair with it .
Her hair dried by itself fairly quickly as the heater in the room had already been turned on .
After Shen Luo’an went into the bathroom to shower, Shen Manting leaped at the chance to reach under the covers for the object he had hidden .
She found a small, black velvet box . The velvety exterior was smooth and soothing to the touch .

She opened it to find a ring inside .
It was a big, shiny diamond ring in the shape of a heart .
Shen Manting’s eyes lit up with excitement . She couldn’t help removing it from the box and slipping it onto her finger .
She instinctively wore it on the ring finger of her left hand .
She slipped it on easily . It hung loosely from her slender finger .
Yet, she suddenly felt a dull ache in her heart .
Tears welled up in her eyes as she stared wistfully at the ring .
She was overwhelmed by an uncontrollable urge to cry .
The feeling emerged so abruptly and intensely that she struggled to make sense of it .
She placed the ring back in the box and tucked it under the sheets, pretending that she hadn’t touched it at all .
She plopped herself onto the bed . She couldn’t hold back her tears anymore . She sobbed quietly . Her heart felt so, so empty…
By the time Shen Luo’an came out of the shower, Shen Manting had already fallen asleep .
She was lying in the middle of the bed .
The bright lights in the room were still on .
She was sleeping soundly . The rhythm of her breathing almost matched her son’s .
He treaded his way carefully to the bed and gently touched the box under the blanket .
It was still there .
He felt slightly disappointed and transferred the ring into the drawer of the bedside table .
Shen Luo’an turned off the light . As he lay down in bed, he felt a mix of joy and satisfaction in his heart .
He reached out to pull her gently into his embrace . Shen Manting sensed Shen Luo’an’s breath and leaned in closer . She clutched onto his clothes .
“Honey, I feel so sad . ”
Shen Luo’an stiffened . He caressed her cheek with his palm and asked softly, “What’s the matter?”
“I don’t know . ” Shen Manting looked up at him . Tears were streaming down her face . She pointed to her heart and confided, “It hurts here . ”
