Whispers to the Soul: Surrendering to Love Snare-Chapter 766 - 785: Embarrassed Departure from the Lin Family
An Nan’s laughter was too sudden. Even Lin Mubai, who was in front of him, wanted to stop it but was a step too late, only able to watch helplessly as the reprimanding voice on the other end of the phone continued to echo in his ears: "An Nan, you truly have no manners just like your mother. I’m talking to you, and you dare to laugh. What are you laughing at? Are you laughing at me? Or laughing at your mom and your sister?"
The other party kept mentioning mom and sister, which made An Nan increasingly impatient: "Enough, I told you, if there’s something to say, just say it directly. If there’s nothing, I’m hanging up."
"An Nan, how dare you!" Lin Haotian was clearly about to explode with anger.
"What don’t I dare?" Suddenly, An Nan felt his fear of this person was completely unreasonable. First, he owed Lin Haotian nothing. Second, apart from that faint blood relation, what relationship did they even have? Even if there was a relationship, it had long since vanished like smoke due to Lin Haotian’s ruthless nature.
In this world, no biological grandfather would ignore his granddaughter, leaving her unsupported, so in her heart, Lin Haotian wasn’t her grandfather and was completely unrelated to her.
Resolute in her conviction, An Ran’s voice grew colder: "You won’t say anything? Then I’m hanging up."
Upon finishing her sentence, An Ran really moved her phone away from her ear, ready to hang up, when the continued angry chastisement from the other end came: "An Nan, don’t you dare hang up."
"Then speak," An Nan’s attitude was unwavering.
Lin Haotian then realized the situation was unfavorable for him, so he had to slightly lower his tone, yet couldn’t hide the anger in his heart: "An Nan, you must apologize to your mom and sister." While he was angrily scolding into the phone, Xi Xilan and An Yuya, sitting across from him, exchanged glances filled with satisfaction. Both masked it well, keeping it from being noticed and instead kept crying, portraying how deeply wronged they’d felt tonight.
An hour earlier, Xi Xilan had left the Lin Family in a huff, sitting angrily in the car. An Yuya, sitting beside her, felt uneasy, fearing she’d become the target of Xi Xilan’s anger. Ironically, the more you fear something, the more it tends to happen.
As the car drove on, Xi Xilan suddenly slammed the brakes, stopping the car right in the middle of the road, followed by a series of screeching brakes and shouting from other drivers. An Yuya’s face turned pale with fright, too scared to utter a word, even avoiding eye contact with Xi Xilan.
Xi Xilan ignored all this, glaring sharply at the passenger seat with a menacing expression that contrasted starkly with the elegance she showed outsiders. At that moment, she was like a witch from hell, her face terrifying and fierce.
"An Yuya, you useless and troublesome girl." As her words fell, she lifted one arm swiftly and struck.
An Yuya quickly shielded her head with her arms, the blow landing on her arm, causing it to swell and redden instantly. Still, An Yuya dared not fight back, gritting her teeth and enduring it in silence.
Only after Xi Xilan vented did she drive off again.
