Whispers to the Soul: Surrendering to Love Snare

Chapter 1013 - 1032: A Boring New Year’s Day

An Liyang lay on the ground, and when he woke up again, the New Year’s bell had already rung. The city had once again plunged into silence, as if the only sound left was his faint breathing.

He then turned over, extended his trembling hand, and gently placed it over his heart, a slight cold smirk appearing on his lips.

"An Liyang, you were always the extra one, you should have died long ago, what’s the point of you still being alive."

If such a desolate scene were seen by others, they would surely not believe their eyes.

This was nowhere near the once high-spirited young master of the An Family, but just a desolate and helpless man.

As he lay on the ground, suddenly at the corner of his eyes, glistening tears appeared.

It’s said that a real man doesn’t easily cry, only because he’s not yet hit a truly sorrowful point.

For so many years, no matter how much pain and suffering he encountered, this man never cried. Yet, on the first day of this New Year, he cried, and it was a cry born from helplessness.

His mind was further clouded with confusion, unsure whether his return to the country was a mistake or the right decision, whether he should immediately leave and never come back.

As for the so-called An Family, Mom, his sister, An Nan, none of them had anything to do with him anymore.

That night, he just lay on the ground all night.

On the morning of the first day of the New Year, An Nan woke up early, not because she didn’t want to sleep but because it was too noisy outside. She simply got up and stopped sleeping, and with some mischief, woke up the man beside her.

Lin Mubai groggily woke up, glanced at the time on his phone, and was immediately puzzled, "Why are you awake so early?"

An Nan gave him a slight smile, "I couldn’t sleep, wanted to get up."

Lin Mubai thought for a moment and then pleasantly agreed, "Then let’s get up together! What do you want for breakfast? I’ll make it for you."

She tilted her head slightly to look at him, then said, "Anything will do."

"Alright then."

The morning of the first day of the New Year was all about visiting friends. After breakfast, the Lan Family members all left, leaving only the Lin Family. Then Mr. Lin and Old Madam Lin went off to gather with old friends, Lin Ze and his wife Lan Yiqing also went out for New Year’s greetings, taking An Jiayou with them. Thus, only Lin Mubai and his wife remained at home, and An Nan suddenly felt very lonely.

So she sat on the sofa in the living room and sighed deeply.

"Sigh!"

Hearing her sigh, Lin Mubai asked her with a smile, "What’s the matter? Sighing on the first morning of the New Year."

An Nan glanced at him, eyes somewhat listless, "I’m so bored! And you won’t let me go out."

As she spoke, she pouted.

He smiled slightly, reached out to stroke her hair, and then said, "Then I’ll take you out for a bit!"

On such a New Year’s morning, leaving this woman quietly at home is indeed quite boring, so why not take her out for some visits!

Hearing this, An Nan instantly cheered up and the next moment she was holding onto the man’s arm tightly, saying, "Honey, let’s go see Aunt Fu and Uncle Liang! It’s the New Year, and they’re all alone at home, how lonely!"

Lin Mubai readily agreed without any objection, "Sure, let me first go to the room and get you a thick coat, then we’ll go out."

"Okay! Long live my husband."
