Stealing Your Heart (Lin Xinyan) novel Chapter 1057

“H-How would I know?” Nan Cheng refused to admit.

Li Xiaohui scoffed, “You don’t know?”

She rose to her feet and bellowed at the others who made fun of her, “Get lost!”

“She’s crazy,” someone commented disdainfully before returning to his room.

Losing interest in the spectacle, everyone returned to their rooms.

Li Xiaohui grabbed Nan Cheng’s collar. “If you don’t explain this clearly, I’ll never let you off the hook!”

“So what? What can you do to me?” He put on a victimized look. “I really don’t know what happened. I arranged for President Jiang to be here…”

When he spoke, he met Zong Yanxi’s gaze and immediately fell silent.

However, he still managed to arouse Zong Yanxi’s suspicion. With a cold expression, she asked, “Nan Cheng, you insisted on dragging me here just to make me witness this act and misunderstand Tawan, right?”

“I…” Nan Cheng tried to explain. Steeling himself, he said, “I really don’t know what’s going on.”

Now that things had turned out like this, he had no choice but to deny it.

“You’re lying. How is it possible for you to not know anything?” Li Xiaohui seemed to have understood something.

“This room was never Jiang Mohan’s right from the start. Instead, it belonged to this foreigner. You’re trying to reconcile Jiang Mohan with his ex-girlfriend. Hence, you tried to destroy her impression of this man, who seems to like her. This is to make it easier for Jiang Mohan to pursue her again, right?”

Nan Cheng adamantly denied, “I-I don’t know. What are you talking about? I don’t understand.”

“You don’t understand? Very well. I’ve never been embarrassed so badly before. You’re the one who humiliated me in front of so many people. Nan Cheng, I’m not going to spare you. Also, even if you deny that it’s got nothing to do with you, I’ll still investigate it. If I discover that you lied to me and tricked me, I’ll never let you off the hook! Let me tell you this, I’m not someone to mess around with!” With that, Li Xiaohui spun around and left. Perhaps because she was walking too quickly, she lost her balance on her heels and twisted her ankle. “Argh!”

Feeling an excruciating pain at her ankle, her knees buckled and her body fell toward the side. She collapsed on the floor once again. At the same time, her dress ripped apart.

Nan Cheng laughed, showing no pity at all.

Li Xiaohui turned her head around and glared at him. He quickly stopped smiling, took off his coat and passed it to her. “Use this to cover yourself.”

“I don’t need it!” spat Li Xiaohui through gritted teeth.

Nan Cheng did not insist either. “If you aren’t scared of embarrassing yourself, then it’s fine.”
