Stealing Your Heart (Lin Xinyan) novel Chapter 1071

Strangely, Zong Yanchen felt an urge to go after Mu Yuan’er upon hearing the word “child.”

He had planned to search for her after making a recovery, but he hadn’t been back for a while. In addition to that, Zhuang Zijin’s health was deteriorating after Cheng Yuwen’s death. It would seem selfish of him to leave his family because of personal reasons during this difficult period of life.

Zhuang Jiawen was already in charge of their family’s affairs. Zong Yanchen wasn’t always with his parents to be a filial son, so he felt guilty for not fulfilling his duties as the eldest child.

Zhuang Zijin had brought him up. She might pass on anytime, so he couldn’t be selfish and leave right now.

After her parents gave their consent, Zong Yanxi agreed to return to Thailand with Tawan. Before she could board the plane, however, she received a call from Gu Xian.

“My mom is ill. She might not hold on for long. Before she passes on, I want him to come and visit him.”

Zong Yanxi stood in the middle of the bustling airport, stunned. “Your mom…”

“She’s suffering from terminal cancer. She has been receiving treatment all the while, but it isn’t doing much. The doctor told me to be prepared. I know he has his own life, and I don’t mean to intrude. I just want him to know of my existence.”

“Alright,” Zong Yanxi agreed. “Send me your address, and I shall bring him there.”

“Will he come with you?”

“I have a plan. He will be there.”

“Alright.”

After they ended their phone conversation, Gu Xian texted her an address.

“Flight D360 to Baykeep will depart shortly. All passengers, please check your ticket at the boarding gate.”

Tawan urged, “Let’s go.”

Zong Yanxi shot him an apologetic look. “I might not be able to return to Thailand with you. Something urgent has come up.”

The man stared at her for a few seconds before answering, “Alright. I’ll give you a ride back then.”

He was actually worried that Zong Yanxi had changed her mind because she regretted agreeing to head to Thailand with him.

Still, he didn’t ask that out loud.
