Shen Cheng was awakened by a shrill scream.
She rubbed her sleepy eyes, propped herself up in bed, and still felt a bit drowsy.
Alas!
How could pregnancy make one so sleepy.
She rolled out of bed, poured a glass of water, walked back to the side of the bed, and took a sip.
"Ah!"
A cry of alarm came, startling her so that she trembled and spilled some of the water from the glass.
She frowned, reached into the tissue box, and wiped the water stains on the bedsheets clean with a few tissues.
"Ah!"
Another scream rang out, even more vigorous than the last.
Shen Cheng's brow furrowed even tighter, thinking how open people were these days, to be tumbling in bed and moaning so sensually in broad daylight.
She had never cried out like that at home...
She set down the glass and went into the bathroom to wash her face and quickly freshen up; she simply took her cellphone with her and left the room.
Just as she locked the door, she heard another "Ah..." from the next room.
