“Goodbye, Shen Luo’an.”
There was an indescribable coldness in the voice along with an overwhelming sense of loathing, Shen Luo’an has been very familiar with this tone for a long time now.
The voice was low and exceptionally stark in the night.
Shen Luo’an woke up from his dreams with a start and immediately turned aside to look at Shen Manting.
Shen Manting was very quiet, it was as if the voice that he had heard just now was merely a hallucination.
He gently embraced Shen Manting beside him, his heart still pounding heavily in his chest.
However, his heart also felt increasingly empty.
As if Shen Manting could sense Shen Luo’an’s touch and embrace, she leaned in closer to his chest.
Shen Luo’an held Shen Manting in his arms and pinched the soft flesh that had grown around her waist in the recent half a month. He could not help but call out softly, “Manting.”
His voice was very soft and it was quivering slightly.
Shen Manting seemed to have heard him speak or perhaps she had dreamt about something pleasant for she nuzzled up against his chest. Although Shen Luo’an could not be certain of what she was feeling, he assumed she was happy as she was smiling slightly.
Shen Luo’an continued to observe her facial expressions under the dim lighting.
Shen Manting was indeed smiling.
Shen Luo’an decided to call out softly to her once more, “Manting.”
This time, Shen Manting did not react and merely continued to breathe steadily.
However, Shen Luo’an could not seem to fall back asleep anymore.
His eyes remained wide open for a long time until all of a sudden, Shen Manting moved slightly in her sleep.
Shen Luo’an felt it clearly so he looked back down at her.
Soon, Shen Manting moved again and muttered in her sleep, “Shen Luo’an… Shen Luo’an…”
Shen Luo’an’s body instantly froze.

While she spoke softly, it was evident that her voice was cold and detached, and Shen Luo’an could hear this very clearly.
Her soft muttering felt like a momentary nightmare.
Shen Manting quickly became tranquil again.
Shen Luo’an subconsciously tightened his arms around her, his mind in turmoil for he was terribly afraid.
After a long time of silence, Shen Manting once again sobbed out, “No… Please…”
Shen Luo’an was so close to breaking down and he unconsciously pulled her closer to his chest forcefully as though he was trying to protect her from her own dreams. He could no longer hold himself back and began to breathe hastily and heavily. “Manting. Manting, wake up. Stop dreaming. Hurry and wake up. Wake up quickly…” he called out softly but urgently.
He was choking on his tears, his voice sounding rich with panic and guilt.
Shen Luo’an had to admit that he was being selfish.
He never wanted Shen Manting to regain her memories. He already planned to keep her by his side from the moment he knew that she had amnesia.
However, more and more of her past memories were surfacing in her dreams and she was getting closer and closer towards regaining her all of them.
“I cannot allow this to happen,” Shen Luo’an thought.
Shen Luo’an’s overly agitated reaction woke Shen Manting up.
When Shen Manting opened her eyes, she could feel that her face was slightly damp. Her eyes seemed to be the source of the wetness and she realized that her own tears were clouding her vision.
When she looked up, she could see Shen Luo’an’s chin in the dim lighting.
Shen Manting felt slightly lost as she looked at him and called out, “Dear…”
Her voice was very soft, it sounded clear and gentle like how she usually sounded.
When Shen Luo’an heard her familiar voice, he felt more at ease.
He looked down at her clear eyes and could not help but tighten his embrace around her before lowering his head and sealing her lips with a gentle kiss.
The kiss happened rather abruptly and he quickly wrapped his arms around Shen Manting before she could react.
Shen Luo’an’s movements felt slightly forced and urgent. Shen Manting did not know if it was her imagination but it actually seemed as if Shen Luo’an was nervous.
She stroked his back and patted him gently like what he usually does when he comforts her.
With her eyes closed, Shen Manting responded to him silently.
