Whispers to the Soul: Surrendering to Love Snare

Chapter 944 - 963: Lin Mubai’s Occasional Obliviousness

Lin Mubai, however, didn’t grasp the details here and continued to look puzzled: "Why isn’t Mom answering the phone just fine?"

Suddenly, Lin Ze felt speechless at his son’s hesitation. Isn’t he supposed to be smart? Didn’t he graduate from a first-class university? How could he be so slow-witted at this moment? He really wanted to open his son’s head to see how he could be so dumb.

Then he continued impatiently: "Why else? It’s your mom’s nature; once she starts having fun, she forgets everything."

Because of this personality trait, he’s been frustrated for half his life. When they were young and together, his wife often forgot about him due to her love for fun. Now, even as a grandmother, she was still like this.

What infuriated him the most was that even with his wife’s big belly, she didn’t pick up the phone or call back. Wasn’t that making everyone at home anxious? So tonight, no matter what, he would find that woman and bring her home for a good lecture about not doing things recklessly.

Lin Mubai could only secretly laugh in his heart at his dad’s complaints, not daring to show it openly.

Although he said those words, he actually understood deep down that his father was merely throwing a tantrum. The reason for this tantrum could be summed up in two simple words: "jealous."

Jealous that Mom went out without him, jealous that she left him behind, and even more jealous that Mom didn’t answer his calls.

And he had a strong premonition that even if they successfully found his mom tonight, his dad couldn’t do anything about her. This wasn’t just idle talk but a lesson learned from years of experience.

Over the years, such things have happened countless times, and there was never a time when his dad ended up victorious.

So this time, his premonition remained the same, ending once again with his dad’s defeat, and he eagerly anticipated witnessing this scenario, which made him feel cheerful just thinking about it.

But more importantly, before all of this, they needed to find his mom and wife; otherwise, how could the show go on?

He was even more certain that his dad had already sent someone out searching, and the answer would probably return soon.

Just as this thought finished in his mind, he saw the person opposite him hurriedly pick up the phone and then put it down with annoyance.

Then he continued to ask, "Dad, what’s wrong? Where are Mom and the others?"

The other party quickly glared at him, speaking with displeasure: "Why ask so many questions? You’ll find out soon enough."

Fine! Fine!

He wouldn’t ask anymore.

Afterward, Lin Mubai really stopped asking. As long as he found his wife, what did it matter if he had to endure a little?

He had no idea what a complex state of mind the person sitting beside him was in at that moment.

For the first time in his life, Lin Ze felt so dumb, utterly clueless.

Clearly, if he had just thought a little, he should have figured out where that woman most likely went. This time, his mind was clouded, so he didn’t think of it and went to such great lengths to search, which was indeed a very frustrating thing.

The closer the car got to the destination, the gloomier the expression on Lin Ze’s face became.
