Chapter 2140: Does It Have to Be Like This

Her words were spoken in a very clear and succinct manner.

Shen Manting stifled her sobs as she tried to maintain her calm, and looked directly into Shen Luo’an’s eyes. She seemed to be waiting for him to come to a decision.

Shen Luo’an was still in a daze and couldn’t believe what she was saying.

Put in another way, he was being asked to choose between the two personalities.

If he chose the original Shen Manting, it would result in Little Shen Manting’s murder.

But what if he picked the alternative?

If he chose Little Manting, did that mean that the original Manting would never be able to return?

Unfortunately, Shen Manting looked extremely serious when she spoke those words to him.

He had always assumed that Little Manting was innocent and kind.

However, when faced with such a predicament, she was proving to be resolute and determined.

And who could blame her? When it came to life and death moments, anyone would want to survive.

This was human nature.

Shen Luo’an looked at Shen Manting for a long while and stammered, “Does it have to be like this?”

Shen Manting noticed his hesitation and tears began to stream down her eyes once again.

Gazing at Shen Luo’an, she asked, “Hubby, do you… love her more?”

Her choked voice betrayed her despair and hopelessness.

She grabbed Shen Luo’an’s clothes, and sniffed hard before asking, “Why? Why, Hubby?”

Little Manting couldn’t understand it at all.

“The one who loves you and is fond of you is clearly me! You are clearly fond of me too! Why would you choose someone else?”

Her cries of despair were loud enough to be heard through the wooden door panel.

Ye Qianqian couldn’t bear it any longer. She handed Little Yue’er over to Nanny He and walked quietly to the door of their room to observe the commotion inside.

The door had been left ajar, but it still obscured the view of the bed.

The voice was coming from the bed. Just as Ye Qianqian raised her hand to knock on the door, she heard Shen Luo’an’s voice clearly.

Perhaps it was because they were some distance away that Shen Luo’an’s voice sounded a little soft. He said, “I did not make any choice. To me, Manting is Manting. Manting, come on, be a good girl. Don’t cry anymore.”

“No!” Shen Manting screamed, her voice was now indescribably hoarse. “I’m not! Hubby, you know very well I’m not her!”

Shen Luo’an was silent.

What followed was the sound of Shen Manting’s sobs.

Ye Qianqian couldn’t hold it in any longer. She turned around and pulled out her cell phone to call Shen Zhilie.

Shen Zhilie didn’t answer the call; perhaps he was busy

After some thought, she eventually knocked on the door and called out, “Big Brother? Sister-in-law?”

Shen Manting’s cries softened a little and Shen Luo’an responded, “Come in.”

When Ye Qianqian heard that, a sense of unease grew inside her.

She had been married to Shen Zhilie for two years now but this was her first time entering Shen Luo’an’s bedroom.

Upon stepping in, she realized that Shen Luo’an bedroom was especially big.

She headed further into the room, she saw that Shen Luo’an was half sprawled on Shen Manting atop the bed.

At that very moment, Shen Manting’s eyes were swollen red and she looked very pitiful.

Ye Qianqian felt her heart go out to her a little. At the same time, she felt afraid.

The woman in front of her was suffering from split personality disorder!

What if she stabbed her with a knife in a moment of insanity?

She had heard that mentally unstable individuals suffered from mood swings! Oh gosh!

Ye Qianqian walked over, and cautiously said, “Manting, didn’t you tell me that you wanted to take the child to the playground? Little Yue’er is getting impatient. Are we going or not?”

Shen Manting choked back a sob and rubbed her eyes before replying, “We’re not going any longer. I’m not in a good mood and don’t want to go!”
