CHAPTER 128: CHAPTER 128: AN NAN FIGURED SOMETHING OUT

He is Dad’s son, and his goal will be the same as Dad’s, which is to let Mom live the life she likes.

She is someone born to soar in the sky, not to be confined to a desk. Over these years, she has given up too much for him, and he cannot bear it, nor can he let it go, so he must grow up quickly.

An Nan has no idea about the thoughts of the little guy opposite her at this moment; if she knew, she would definitely be shocked and moved.

Right now, he is nothing like the little one she used to hold in her arms gently soothing all night; he is entirely a little boy stepping towards being a man, yet this already touches her deeply.

"Jiayou, I know you are doing this for me, but Mom still wants you to live step by step like an ordinary child. However, since you’ve always been thoughtful since childhood and have such ideas, certainly after consideration, Mom will respect your decision. I’ll come to pick you up next month."

"Okay, thank you, Mom."

"Silly son."

Are you not a silly mom yourself?

This sentence, An Jiayou kept in his heart. Facing each other, mother and son exchanged smiles, a dense, profound familial bond into which no outsider can intrude.

An Nan stayed in the United States for three days; apart from the time she visited her son, she spent her time in the hotel lost in thought.

In fact, on the second day after arriving in the United States, she had turned her phone on, only to be disappointed that there was not a single call from that person, not even a text message. Just when she was extremely disappointed, on the third day, about an hour before her evening flight, she received a call from the man she had been thinking about intensely for the past three days.

Hands trembling, she put the phone to her ear and heard that unfamiliar yet familiar male voice.

"Nannan."

With just a gentle call, An Nan didn’t know why her eyes felt sore.

"It’s me," she responded softly to the phone.

"Are you returning home tonight?"

"Yes, already at the airport, ready to board."

"Alright, I’ll wait for you at the airport tomorrow. I have something to say to you."

"Don’t come to the airport. Wait for me at home; I also have something to tell you."

"Okay, I’ll wait for you."

After hanging up the phone, An Nan had a strand of anticipation in her heart. Although she did not know what that man would say to her, she still looked forward to meeting tomorrow.

Even knowing such feelings strayed from her longstanding commitments, she found herself unable to control the anticipation in her heart, just wanting to see him, to see his smile.

At this moment, she could affirm that she had developed a deep emotional stir for the man three years younger than her, a feeling of uncontrollable affection.

What to do, she had no idea.

But she remembered clearly the words her son said before she left.

"Nannan, there are many things we don’t need to deliberately avoid our hearts, just like the fact that my Dad and Mom have left this world. Feelings are the same; when you encounter something that moves you, try it, knowing that if you miss it, it’s missed."

An Nan felt that her own young son knew too much, but she had to admit, what he said was indeed true.

The most splendid and beautiful moment in life is precisely when the person you like also happens to like you.

Lin Mubai and An Nan before, perhaps Lin Mubai was the one who first felt stirred, but through their interactions, the latter slowly with sincerity and intentions made the former notice her, eventually growing into an unperceived affection.
