Whispers to the Soul: Surrendering to Love Snare-Chapter 723 - 742: An Nan’s Battle Plan
In this regard, the father and son were surprisingly in sync.
Lin Mubai, who was looking at his phone’s WeChat, felt a deep sense of doubt at this moment. Normally at this time, the WeChat group would be buzzing with activity. According to Miss Lan’s original words, every morning you shout in the WeChat group, representing the start of a good day. After that, people in the group formed a habit; the first thing they did every morning was to find their phones and shout a bit in the group. Yet, this morning was very unusual; not a single person was speaking.
Since Lin Mubai was so focused, he didn’t notice An Jiayou’s comment. The latter had to repeat it again: "Dad, don’t you have to go to the company this morning?"
This time, An Jiayou raised his voice, and Lin Mubai finally responded: "Well, there’s nothing much happening this morning, so it’s fine if I go a bit later."
Immediately, An Jiayou remembered the complaints he overheard yesterday in Uncle Xia Yang’s office: "Jiayou, you have no idea how excessive your dad is. He never comes to the company and dumps everything on me. I’m about to be worked to death, and I still haven’t managed to woo my wife. Your dad is so heartless; I curse him to use the toilet every morning without running water."
Reflecting on the person in front of him, An Jiayou suddenly understood—the man was lying. However, he chose not to point it out because it wasn’t his business. Better to stay out of delicate matters, otherwise it would only be a thankless task.
Lin Mubai waited in the living room, left waiting for someone to wake up. What he didn’t know was that the person inside the room was happily making a phone call. An Nan had actually woken up when An Jiayou came in, but she pretended to be asleep just to have her own time to make a call.
Once her son left the room, An Nan checked the situation outside the door before quickly finding her phone and heading to the balcony.
The call was soon answered, and the person’s voice on the other end was clearly drowsy: "Nannan, good morning. Why are you up so early?"
Hearing the familiar, warm voice, An Nan looked at the bright, rising sun outside the window, a faint smile curling her lips: "It’s not early, wake up quickly. I have something to discuss with you."
An Nan’s matters were of great importance to Xi Shaoqi, and in an instant, his drowsiness vanished. He sat up in bed, holding the phone with a serious expression: "Nannan, go ahead."
After a moment, Xi Shaoqi’s excited voice came through the phone: "Is this okay? Is this okay? Is this okay?"
The three consecutive questions just made An Nan want to laugh, but she still pretended to have a troubled tone: "If you think it’s not okay, then just forget it, right?"
"No, no, no, just like this, just like this, it’s great, it’s great," Xi Shaoqi’s anxious voice hurriedly reached her ears.
With this expected answer, An Nan didn’t show her past surprise. She continued instructing Xi Shaoqi on the other end of the phone: "Remember to tell them that this thing must be kept secret. As for my husband, just stick to his plan and let him go alone when the time comes."
"Okay, okay, okay, Nannan, don’t worry. I’m not doing anything today; I’ll go talk to each of them personally and explain everything clearly, so just wait to see your husband’s embarrassed look."
