Whispers to the Soul: Surrendering to Love Snare
Chapter 516 - 515: A Strange Feeling
CHAPTER 516: CHAPTER 515: A STRANGE FEELING
At the same time, a strange feeling surged in his heart. He always felt that the woman in the photo was familiar, but couldn’t recall where he had seen her before.
While listening to his own wife’s chatter, Lin Mubai also discovered that his wife’s face still bore traces similar to his mother-in-law’s.
For some reason, as he listened to her incessant chatter, an inexplicable heartache welled up inside him.
He didn’t know how she managed to get through the days when she lost both her parents one after another. It must have been very hard, but she always glossed over it with a few words.
Then, he continued to hear more of the chatter: "Mom, rest assured, I will soon reunite you with Dad, and you will never be separated again."
At this moment, Lin Mubai slowly crouched down: "Mom, I am your son-in-law. My name is Lin Mubai. I’m sorry it took me so long to come see you. Don’t worry, I will take good care of Nannan and the child in her belly. If you hear this, please bless them to be safe and sound."
Apparently not realizing that the man would say such things, An Nan’s shocked gaze fell on his face, unable to process it for a long time.
Lin Mubai continued talking about his own basic qualities, finally concluding with: "Mom, rest assured, I will never break Nannan’s heart and will ensure she is happy."
Any woman would be moved upon hearing such words, and An Nan was no exception. She was so moved she didn’t know what to say, just stared at him through tears, biting her lip, unable to utter a single word.
"Wife, don’t bite yourself, my heart aches." Between gentle whispers, Lin Mubai held her tightly in his embrace.
A warm scene unfolded amidst the cemetery.
An Jiayou silently stood behind the two, with dark eyes gazing at the photo on the tombstone, and it was unclear what he was thinking.
Even after leaving the cemetery, An Nan’s melancholy mood hadn’t recovered. Lin Mubai, worried about her health, could only send her home first and then call the house: "Mom, Nannan isn’t feeling well, we might not come back tonight."
A worried voice from Lan Yiqing immediately came through the phone: "What’s wrong with Nannan?"
"Mom, it’s nothing. I’ll bring her back tomorrow." Right now, Lin Mubai didn’t want his family to know his wife was pregnant because he knew better than anyone that once they knew, they’d probably immediately come to compete with him. His wife belongs to him, all those people should stay out, even if it’s his family.
"Alright, alright, take good care of her."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Mubai returned to the living room from the balcony and immediately saw the equally low-spirited An Jiayou. He hesitated for a moment, then went forward and sat beside him: "Jiayou, what’s wrong? You’re unusually quiet today."
At the cemetery, he already sensed that something was amiss with this little guy, excessively quiet.
An Jiayou still didn’t speak, sitting there quietly with his head down.
Lin Mubai wasn’t in a hurry to question him, knowing full well in his heart that this little guy had something on his mind; he could wait until he was willing to speak up and tell him.
An Jiayou didn’t keep him waiting for long. Raising his hesitant gaze, he looked at the person beside him: "Uncle Mu Bai, Nannan’s birthday is in four days. Can you accompany Nannan to a certain place? Maybe I can’t tell you where it is yet, but I hope you can go with Nannan. It has to be you."
