Whispers to the Soul: Surrendering to Love Snare-Chapter 888 - 907: An Jiayou the Troublemaker

"Jiayou," An Nan’s eyes showed heartache as she repeatedly questioned herself inside whether it was too cruel to burden a twelve-year-old child with so much.

But this was the reality, and she couldn’t change it; she could only do her best to give him a piece of the sky. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

An Jiayou was very sensible, seemingly not wanting the other party to worry too much about him, he continued to hang a sweet smile on his lips and said, "Mom, don’t think too much, we will definitely get through this difficulty. I’ll keep you company for a walk, then we’ll go back to the ward."

That night, Lin Mubai initially didn’t know that An Jiayou would be staying. When his own mother was about to leave without waiting for the little guy to return, he suddenly realized, "Mom, aren’t you waiting for Jiayou to go back together?"

His arm was inconvenient. Who would send the little guy back later? Could it be his wife? That was simply unthinkable.

And his mother’s next words made his face turn darker: "Go back? Go where? Jiayou isn’t going back tonight, he’s staying here with An Nan. I’ve already told Xin Ru, we’ll add a bed to the ward tonight."

Lin Mubai’s handsome face turned from dark to darker; the night was supposed to be his exclusive time with his wife, but adding a brat to the mix was out of the question. Helplessly, he continued to make excuses, "Uh, doesn’t Jiayou have school in the morning? The hospital is quite far from school, which is inconvenient."

Blue Yiqing, able to see right through her son’s little schemes, wasn’t fazed by his words and rolled her eyes unabashedly, "Stop jabbering, you don’t already know whether Jiayou needs to go to school or not. If you keep nagging, I’ll make sure he doesn’t go to school from tomorrow and stays at the hospital every day with An Nan."

Astounded, Lin Mubai, still wearing a dark expression, had no choice but to soften, "Mom, I know I was wrong, I know I was wrong. You and Dad should head back, Jiayou will stay here tonight, it’s fine."

"Really?" Blue Yiqing was secretly delighted, yet maintained an earnest facade.

"Really, really." Even if not true, it had to be true at this moment. If that little brat was really left here starting tomorrow, he’d be crying his heart out.

Ultimately, Blue Yiqing left contentedly, leaving a frustrated Lin Mubai.

And this frustration continued throughout the night. After An Nan and An Jiayou returned, and following freshening up, naturally it was time to say goodnight and sleep.

Lin Mubai had long tried convincing himself that tonight he would treat the little guy like air, yet he himself was blocked from any air.

After washing up, An Jiayou started pestering An Nan, "An Nan, shall I sleep with you tonight? It’s been a while."

Before An Nan could respond, a hasty voice rejected him, "No."

"Reason?" An Jiayou stared at him with a sly smirk.

Reason? Reason?

This damn little rascal, was he trying to see him make a fool of himself?

The reason was simple: because he didn’t want to. But saying that would surely be ridiculous.

Seeing his anger, An Nan raised a triumphant smile at the corners of her mouth, yet refrained from meddling in this father-son exchange. Sometimes, a bit of back-and-forth banter between father and son also serves to strengthen their bond.
