Whispers to the Soul: Surrendering to Love Snare

Chapter 579 - 598: The Sorrow in Rocky’s Heart

Although Rocky has never been married, he has always been the kind of person who’s been through it all, having had unforgettable love. Isn’t there a saying? If you’ve never loved in your youth, then you haven’t truly been young. So he understands the pain and happiness of emotions. Yet he has never been able to comprehend the emotional world of the man in front of him. A man who’s apparently so carefree and unrestrained in his work, why is he so passive in matters of the heart?

Ouyang Lei likes An Nan; this was something Rocky knew years ago. He always believed that they would eventually end up together. However, he never thought that after all these years, this man has remained stagnant, while An Nan has moved on to someone else.

Thinking about these regrets, Rocky once again sighed deeply and helplessly: "Ouyang Lei, everything is your own choice, so take care of yourself. As a brother, the only thing I can tell you is that I hope you won’t regret today’s decision in the future."

Actually, he always thought that Shen Mengqi is a good woman. The most important thing is, she loves him so much. After all, love isn’t as simple as you loving her, so she will definitely love you back.

Ouyang Lei knew all this, but he really had no way around it. Many years ago, he had given his heart to An Nan, so with Shen Mengqi, he could only apologize. That’s also why he didn’t stop her tonight. He knew she was just waiting for a word from him, a word that’s very simple, very simple, perhaps the simplest word in the world, or just a few words. But he couldn’t say it, couldn’t bring himself to say it. If he knows he can’t give her the future, giving her hope would only hurt her more.

As for An Nan, he never hid anything about his feelings. He simply couldn’t. He even desired more than anyone to give her a lifetime of happiness. He had once been prepared for it, but an unexpected event shattered all his plans. Not to mention that someone who deeply loves her is already by her side, even if not, how could he provide her with happiness? After all, he’s someone who doesn’t even know how many days he has left to live.

A deep sense of loss once again crossed Ouyang Lei’s eyes. Suddenly, he felt like all the strength in his body had been drained. He stumbled, almost falling to the ground. Fortunately, Rocky was quick-eyed and reached out to support him.

"Ouyang Lei, what’s the matter with you?"

Shaking his head slowly, and waiting until he no longer felt dizzy, he finally spoke slowly: "I’m fine, I’m leaving now."

As soon as Ouyang Lei finished speaking, he headed directly towards the door of the room, leaving behind three worried faces.

"Is he really alright?" Ying Chen asked Rocky, who was the oldest among the three.

The latter slowly shook his head, a resigned look in his eyes: "Forget it, let him be. You all know his temperament. He never speaks if he doesn’t want to, no matter how much you ask. It’s better to wait until he wants to talk, then you’ll naturally know."

"But," Jiang Yu Kai began to say, but was interrupted by Rocky once again: "Don’t dwell on these things anymore, it’s late, go back and rest. After An Nan visits the An Family tomorrow, our real battle begins. Tomorrow everyone will take their positions and quietly wait to see how things unfold."

"Fine."

"Okay then."

Up to this point, it seems there’s nothing more that can be done. However, deep in each person’s heart, there is unrest. This night is destined to be a sleepless one, except for one person, and that is An Nan.
