Whispers to the Soul: Surrendering to Love Snare

Chapter 988 - 1007: New Year’s Eve Dinner

Actually, An Nan herself isn’t someone who idolizes celebrities. It’s just that she recently had nothing to do, and after inadvertently watching this drama, coupled with her former infatuation with soldiers, she was completely captivated.

But she didn’t want to tell this man about it, because occasionally watching him get jealous was really quite adorable.

Isn’t that what life is about?

Always needing something new, constantly adjusting, staying unchanged is just so boring.

And she really liked this kind of life, though sometimes she would miss her working days, that feeling of soaring freely in the sky felt genuinely distant now.

Thinking of this, she sighed deeply again: "Ah, when can I go back to work!"

As she finished speaking, her gaze fell on her belly, a deep sense of helplessness in her heart.

It seems that things are always like this, unable to have it both ways.

Just like her, for the sake of the child in her belly, she couldn’t continue doing the job she loved.

She really didn’t know if it was a regret or a blessing?

It might be proportional, or maybe greater than or less than.

But no matter which possibility it is, the only thing she knows is that everything has to be done step by step, there’s no shortcut, and no regrets, people can only keep looking forward.

Because once the road is taken, there’s no turning back.

And so amidst the clamor and chaos, the New Year arrived.

The Lin Family, during the New Year, would cancel all plans to spend more time with family. To them, nothing is more important than family.

This year, because of the addition of An Nan, the new wife, the Lin Family and the Lan Family decided to have the New Year’s Eve dinner together to save the child from running back and forth, which would be troublesome.

This suggestion was immediately approved by everyone in both families.

The New Year’s Eve dinner was set at the Lin Family’s house. An Nan originally didn’t want the family to get too tired, so she planned to have the chefs from the Champs Elysees prepare the meal and have it delivered.

But her mother-in-law and aunts immediately rejected this proposal, insisting that it would only be meaningful if they cooked it themselves.

The ones who immediately looked distressed were the two men from the Lin Family and the men from the Lan Family, because it’s well known that these boastful women didn’t actually know how to cook, so it wasn’t hard to imagine who’d end up cooking.

Who would have thought that those outstanding men outdoors would be reduced to househusbands at home, truly pitiable!

Even though they felt incredibly aggrieved, these men still one by one entered the kitchen. Thankfully, the Lin Family’s kitchen was big enough; otherwise, it wouldn’t have accommodated so many people.

As for the women, they gathered in groups in the living room on the sofa, freely expressing themselves, talking about the happy events of the past year. The entire Lin Family, on New Year’s Eve, gradually became lively after lunch as people gradually arrived.

Finally, with the joint efforts of all the men, the New Year’s Eve dinner was successfully prepared, just waiting for everyone to sit down and start eating.

A dozen or so people quickly filled the entire long table, and first, of course, everyone raised a glass to celebrate together, celebrating the hard-won family reunion for this New Year, and also An Nan and Jiayou joining the family.

The person whose name was deliberately mentioned immediately felt their eyes starting to moisten.
