Chapter 1482: Chapter 1496: Indescribable Heartache

An Ran entered the room in a daze, neither turning on the lights nor changing her shoes, and went straight to the sofa, sitting down.

The medical record in her hand couldn’t reveal its writing in the dim room.

The sky gradually darkened. On this moonless night, the room was pitch-black.

She hadn’t returned to Longteng Xinyuan for several days. Whether it was because no one had been living there or due to the weather, tonight felt especially grim and cold.

An Ran threw the medical record onto the coffee table, hugged herself tightly, took off her shoes, and curled up on the sofa, seemingly trying to warm herself against the sofa cushions behind her.

After a while, her back warmed up, but her chest remained cold, so she curled up even more tightly, like a shrimp nearing death...

She wasn’t sure how much time had passed when a faint sound came from outside the door, followed by the sound of a key turning in the lock.

A tall man appeared in the doorway as he opened the door.

As he casually switched on the entryway light, he immediately saw the girl curled up on the sofa. His handsome brows furrowed, and his heart felt as if it had been clenched tightly by an unseen hand, filling him with an unspeakable ache.

Gently putting down the keys and changing his shoes, Mu Xingfeng walked to the sofa and noticed the diagnosis certificate on the coffee table marked with Shengde Hospital’s logo, which prominently displayed An Youcai’s name and his illness.

After finishing training today, he waited as usual for his wife’s call, which never came. He initially thought she was having too much fun with friends over the weekend and forgot to call him.

Unexpectedly, he received a call from Fang Hui, and upon hearing Fang Hui’s words, he initially thought An Ran was ill.

On his way over, he called Jin Weiliang to investigate An Ran’s visit to Shengde Hospital. After learning about her obtaining An Youcai’s medical records, he understood the reason for her actions.

Mu Xingfeng picked up the diagnosis certificate. Although he already knew from Jin Weiliang what An Youcai was suffering from, seeing these words as a death sentence made his heart skip a beat.

If he felt this way, then what about his wife?

He knew she always had feelings for the An Family, especially for this father she was related to by blood. Even if she didn’t want to admit it, she couldn’t stop herself from feeling.

"Mu Xingfeng~"

The wife on the sofa moaned softly, her voice quiet, yet in this silent night, Mu Xingfeng heard her clearly.

He turned abruptly, confirming that his wife hadn’t woken up and was merely talking in her sleep. His heart ached like being pricked by needles. He bent down to kiss her forehead, attempting to smooth the creases on it, while his arms fiercely pulled her into his embrace.

An Ran suddenly opened her eyes under such force, and upon seeing the person in front of her, sat up abruptly, even raising her hand to rub her eyes as if to confirm.

Mu Xingfeng was amused by her confused, befuddled little action. "Wife, it’s me, your husband is here to see you."

"Mu Xingfeng," An Ran called, diving into his arms.

Her soft little body carried her usual fragrance, and Mu Xingfeng tightened his embrace. God knew how much he missed her. When he received Fang Hui’s call, his first thought was to see her. No matter the circumstances, he had to see her.

As if finding a good reason for himself, he requested leave for the first time during his six years of military service.

An Ran nestled in Mu Xingfeng’s arms for a while before finally raising her head...
