1642 An Unexpected Gues (1/2)

The heavens were fair after all. They didn't allow the innocent to be wrongly punished.

He had been enveloped by darkness for some time. Now that Shen Luo'an had survived it, he could finally see the light at the end of the tunnel.

But… He wondered how that person was faring now.

Shen Luo'an looked at his dim surroundings. He suddenly felt a sense of sorrow.

At the same, he was in a celebratory mood.

It was fortunate that Shen Manting had left.

If she saw the state that Shen Luo'an was in, she'd probably feel even more repulsed by him.

The weather was clear in a small village in Jiangnan. Under the blue sky, thick and fluffy clouds helped block the harsh rays of the sun as the wind pleasantly blew.

Shen Manting walked along the pathway. Her stomach was beginning to show.

In her hand was a bag of simple groceries she had just purchased. She was on her way home.

Just as she reached the front door, she saw several expensive-looking sedan cars parked all around.

Standing between the cars were numerous men in black suits.

The men were all big and tall. It was obvious they were professional bodyguards.

Shen Manting found the scene odd, but she wasn't familiar with anyone in the small village. No one from her previous life would guess that she was hiding in such a place.

Therefore, it was impossible that such a huge entourage was there for her.

Shen Manting carried her groceries and continued on her way home with her head bent down. It was almost as if she was trying to diminish her sense of existence.

Unfortunately, the area they had formed the blockade around was awkwardly and coincidentally the entrance of her small rental apartment.

She retrieved her keys and stepped forward. Before she could insert the key into the lock, she heard the sound of a door open behind her.

Shen Manting could sense the eyes of everyone were on her. Her hair stood on its ends as she quickened her actions in unlocking the door.

An old lady's voice rang out from behind her. ”So, you really have been living here all this time, Manting.”
