"Can't sleep, it's the middle of the night, I'm hungry... my mouth is watering uncontrollably, haha, how ridiculous, utterly ridiculous..."

"It rained for three days, but the sun finally came out today. I'm so sorry, baby, Mommy couldn't protect you well... I'm so sorry..."

"Why...why...why..."

"What is psychotherapy, and will it work? If the psychological pain is gone, what about the physical pain?"

"Phew, so my tears can make mountains rise from the smooth pages of a book. Once I cross these mountains, will I stop thinking about him? When will I forget that bastard…?"

"There's no trace left... Why leave behind painful marks? It only adds to the trouble..."

The second half of the diary was full of apologies and whys. Lei Ting closed the book, sighed, and hid it in a corner that An Ning would never read.

Lei Ting wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and waited for An Ning to come out of the bathroom. An Ning's gentle voice rang out from the bathroom, and Lei Ting covered his face in response.

An Ning: "Lei Ting, if you're hungry, come downstairs and eat first. I won't be able to get ready for a while..."

Thunder: "I'll wait for you..."

An Ning: "Hehe, okay..."

Lei Ting patted his face, brushing away the gloom and guilt and regaining a sense of warmth. A moment later, An Ning came out after washing up, and Lei Ting immediately hugged her tightly, as if he wanted to melt An Ning into his body.

Anning: "What's wrong? Did you not sleep well? Did you have a nightmare last night..."

Thunder: "Let me hug you..."

An Ning: "Hehe...clingy..."

Lei Ting cherished An Ning's current smile and wanted her to always be in a good mood; he was willing to pay any price for it. As they intertwined, Lei Ting warmed An Ning's belly, and only when An Yang's voice rang out did he release her.

Anyang: "Sis, stop being so lovey-dovey with my brother-in-law, Mom's already cooked dinner..."

Anning: "We'll go downstairs right away... Leiting, let's go downstairs to eat..."

Lei Ting immediately flashed a smile and helped her tidy her messy hair. He then straightened his own clothes.

An Ning: "Hehe, let's go..."

Lei Ting took An Ning's arm as they went downstairs. Their parents and younger brother were waiting at the dining table. An Ning was still a little shy, but once at the table, she diligently served Lei Ting porridge and vegetables. Han Yi couldn't help but tease her.

Han Yi: "This girl..."

Anning: "Hehe, Leiting, Mom's porridge is so delicious, you should drink a few more bowls."

Lei Ting: "Yes, Mom's porridge is so delicious, I'm going to have a few more bowls..."

Han Yi: "Drink as much as you like. I'll cook for you at home whenever I have time."

Anyang: "I'm so lucky to have my mom's porridge, it's a rare treat!"

At the dinner table, An Ning served food to Lei Ting, and the two looked as loving as ever, which made Han Yi and An Yiyang very happy.

An Yiyang: "The bodyguards told me about Haiyang. He actually dared to make a move on Anning. Luckily, you guys were very vigilant, otherwise, what would have happened if he had hurt my precious daughter? I have already sent someone to instruct the bodyguard company to strengthen security at our home."

Anyang: "Is this Ocean Park a scam, Dad...?"

Han Yi: "It wasn't just about swindling money; he also had his eye on your sister's multi-billion dollar fund. He hired a group of thugs to try and assault your sister and brother-in-law, but he got beaten up by your brother-in-law and was then taken away by people from China..."

An Yang: "Ah! That's outrageous! How dare he bully my sister! He should be beaten up again!"

Thunder: "His fate won't be good. It's good that your sister is alright..."

Anning: "Hehe, Leiting reacted so quickly! When those thugs pulled out their guns, Leiting immediately shielded me behind him and shouted Alice's name, scaring them all away!"

An Yiyang: "That's right. An Ning, you should listen to Lei Ting more in the future. Lei Ting's vision and knowledge are far superior to yours. He won't let you suffer. You can't be willful."

Anning: "I know, Dad. Leiting and I are a perfect match, hehe..."

Lei Ting: "It's all because I didn't take good care of An Ning in the past. I will definitely teach An Ning properly in the future so that she can recognize people."

Han Yi: "You're quite the talker. What's your family's attitude now? When do they hope you'll go back?"

Thunder: "My family wants us to go back as soon as possible. As long as Anning is willing, we'll go back immediately..."

An Yang: "No, that won't do. I need to really assess you first! I can't bear to let my sister go back with you after just a few days. We should wait until after the New Year. It won't work now."

An Ning: "Thunder, let's stay a few more days before we leave. We still need to see Liao Qian and Allen's wedding!"

Thunder: "I'll do whatever you say..."

Anyang: "Oh dear, my brother-in-law and sister speak in such a soft, gentle voice, oh my..."

Anning: "Stop talking so much, hurry up and eat...hehe...Leiting, try Mom's fried eggs, they're better than mine."

Thunder: "Okay, it feels so good to be home."

Lei Ting had always longed for his family to sit at the table for a meal, chat about everyday things, and be happy together. This was the greatest happiness Lei Ting sought. At this table were all the most important and inseparable people in An Ning's life, and An Ning felt extremely happy at this moment.

An Ning: "An Yang, let me tell you, your brother-in-law and Liao Qian got Joyce's unlimited black card yesterday!"

An Yang: "Huh? My brother-in-law and Liao Qian... and him..."

An Ning: "What?! What are you thinking? Your brother-in-law and Liao Qian used their skills to make him think he was cursed, and Liao Qian broke the curse for him. What are you thinking, kid..."
