Stealing Your Heart (Lin Xinyan) novel Chapter 1044

Zhuang Jiawen decided to pull his brother’s leg because she was aware of what he had in mind. “Are you sure we’re supposed to have wine with noodles? Shouldn’t you get us another few dishes to go along with the wine instead?”

Smiling, Zong Yanchen served his brother a glass of wine. “You should be grateful you’re not starving.”

“Yanchen, you know what? I’m afraid you’re not a match for me.”

After they finished their meal, Lin Xinyan and Shen Xinyao decided to leave the two brothers alone.

She said, “Mom, I’m afraid they’re going to get drunk. I’ll go make them another few dishes to go along with their drinks. It’s a bad idea to have them drink excessively when they had merely savored a few mouthfuls of the noodles.”

“Mmm. How long has it been since they last met each other?” Lin Xinyan placed the dishes in the basin and asked.

Truth be told, it had been almost two years since she last saw Zong Yanchen.

Shen Xinyao thought about it, but she couldn’t be sure either because it had been quite some time. “I think the last time they met one another was the time we dropped by to visit you. It’s almost two years.”

Lin Xinyan started sighing in her mind because she didn’t want her son to get himself involved in such a dangerous job that would require him to spend most of his time away from home. However, she knew she shouldn’t get in his way because he had grown up and had his own career.

Although she was concerned about his eldest son’s safety, she decided to keep it to herself instead of asking him to stay by her side.

She felt guilty because her youngest son had been sent away since he was young. He had to take over the task to manage the corporation and even got married ahead of his elder brother.

Lin Xinyan asked while preparing the ingredients for the dishes, “Yao, is Jiawen exhausted?”

“Nope. I mean, he’s a young man. He won’t get exhausted that easily.” Shen Xinyao started preparing a serving of stir-fry beef for the two brothers.

“Please take good care of him on our behalf in the future. I’m sure you’re conscious he has left us since young.”

Shen Xinyao figured out the meaning behind Lin Xinyan’s words instantly. She beamed her reply and assured her mother-in-law, “Mom, don’t worry. I’ll definitely take good care of him. You should stop behaving as such because you have never mistreated him. In fact, you have given him more than he could ever ask. Have you forgotten the number of things you gave him when we got married back then?”

Then, she added, “You should be proud of them because they’re the only siblings that have never gotten themselves in any conflict because of money.”

Lin Xinyan looked in the direction of the dining hall and noticed her sons were in the middle of a conversation with their arms wrapped around one another’s shoulders.
