Shen Manting was in a daze as the voice played back in her ears. She stared into the darkness surrounding her for a long time before she finally came to her senses.
When she turned her head to the side, she found Shen Luo'an watching her with great concern in his eyes.
His big palm stroked her face, gently wiping what had pooled on her face.
It was then that Shen Manting realized that she was drenched in tears.
Shen Luo'an hugged her tightly and gently said, "You slept for a long time. It's early morning now."
Almost miraculously, Shen Manting felt calm. She no longer felt anger and hatred towards him. She laid her hand on his arm and asked, "Did Little Manting wake up as I slept?"
As Shen Manting spoke, she was surprised to find that her voice was unbelievably hoarse.
Her throat felt dry, and it was painful. Perhaps it was the price to pay for all the screaming that Little Manting had done earlier on.
