Whispers to the Soul: Surrendering to Love Snare-Chapter 871 - 890: Keeping An Nan in the Dark

The latter dismissively waved a hand, turned around, and followed into the small kitchen of the hospital room. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

After An Nan left, she smiled and nodded at Xi Shaoqi, continuing to sit on the balcony’s hanging chair sunbathing, and said to her husband, "Mu Bai, after we go home, let’s buy a hanging chair like this for the balcony, okay? Laying here sunbathing is really comfortable."

Famous for pampering his wife, Lin Mubai, of course, had no objections: "Sure."

At the same time he agreed, he continued to remind her, "Nannan, Shaoqi and I are going to see a doctor for some matters, we’ll be back shortly. Your health isn’t very good right now, don’t roam around, just sunbathe here. If anything happens, find Uncle Liang and Aunt Fu."

This time, An Nan obediently didn’t mind his nagging: "Okay, I know."

Before Lin Mubai left, he anxiously walked into the kitchen. The couple busy inside became very serious when they saw him come in, and their question was the same as everyone else’s this morning: "Does Nannan know?"

Lin Mubai frowned and shook his head: "Still hiding it from her, hoping Uncle Liang and Aunt Fu won’t tell her for now either."

The couple simultaneously nodded: "We know, Nannan’s health isn’t very good right now, we’ll be careful with our words. But this matter needs to be addressed quickly; it can’t be hidden for long." Uncle Liang spoke with a serious tone.

Lin Mubai continued to nod firmly, indicating he understood.

"Then please take good care of Nannan. My friend and I are going out to discuss something." Lin Mubai finished saying this, turned, and left the kitchen, leaving the hospital room with Xi Shaoqi.

After he left, Aunt Fu thought for a while but still worried, so she said to her husband, "Old man, I’ll leave the fish soup to you, I’ll go accompany An Nan. Otherwise, she might go out alone without us knowing."

"Mm, go ahead," Uncle Liang readily agreed.

When Aunt Fu returned to the balcony chair, she saw the girl she watched grow up, curled into the hanging chair, lost in thought.

"Nannan, what are you thinking?"

Seeing it was Aunt Fu, An Nan didn’t hide the sadness in her eyes, blankly staring at her and calling out, "Aunt Fu."

The latter instantly felt heartache, walked forward, sat beside her, and used her arm to hold her tightly in her embrace, full of concern: "Child, what’s wrong? If you’re unhappy about something, tell Aunt Fu."

An Nan perhaps really needed someone to confide in, and she quickly spilled some words from her heart: "Aunt Fu, do you remember Brother?"

"Of course I remember." That outstanding child is unforgettable to anyone who’s met him. Unfortunately, thinking of this, Aunt Fu felt a pang of heartache and continued, "Child, don’t dwell on it. Since he’s gone, don’t think about it." Aunt Fu still didn’t know about the banquet last night, so she was unaware that the outstanding child she referred to did not actually die in that year’s accident.

Xi Shaoqi, awakened by Lan Luo this morning, hurriedly went to pick someone up and, in his haste, didn’t discuss the course of events, only told Aunt Fu and Uncle Liang not to inform An Nan regardless of any news seen or heard.
