Stealing Your Heart (Lin Xinyan) novel Chapter 226

Stealing Your Heart Chapter 226

Cheng Yuxiu had disappeared off the face of the earth, and even her phone number became obsolete after that call.

Zong Qifeng had gone to Mengcheng County to look for her once, but he didn’t succeed. Even her ex-boyfriend Bai Hongfei disappeared without a trace.

He lost hope only after that. Maybe she had eloped with Bai Hongfei after all.

Every promise she had made were just lies.

However, Wen Xian refused to believe that she had disappeared. How could she leave her child behind?

“I have faith in her,” Wen Xian declared.

Zong Qifeng was too devastated to process what she said, and he went upstairs to have some time alone.

Wen Xian held the child in her arms and returned to the Wen family house.

She had to find out if Wen Qing was behind all this.

After all, he had plenty of reasons to do that.

He might have kidnapped Cheng Yuxiu as he didn’t want the two families to get into conflict or make her unhappy.

When she got there, Wen Qing had yet to return.

“Mom, when is my brother coming back?”

Madam Wen pulled her daughter’s clothes tighter around her and took the baby from her arms. “You just came back from the hospital a few days ago, and you’re running around already? Wouldn’t a call suffice?”

Wen Xian managed a small smile. “I miss you and Dad. I’m not cold in the car, since I’m wearing so much.”

Madam Wen smiled. She was happy that her daughter still thought of the family even after she got married.

She looked down at the baby in her arms. He was only a couple of days old, and his face had already gotten chubbier.

Wen Xian glanced at the baby too. “He has started gaining weight already.”

“Kids tend to put on weight quite a bit in the first month. The ones that grow faster can get around three or four kilograms heavier,” Madam Wen said, speaking from experience.

Madam Wen was scared that her daughter would catch a cold, so she told her to rest in her room. Wen Xian called her maid back at the house to take care of Zong Qifeng.

Cheng Yuxiu’s sudden disappearance seemed to be a huge blow to Zong Qifeng.

That was why she had decided to come back and see Wen Qing. She wanted to find out if Cheng Yuxiu had been kidnapped or if she had actually eloped with Bai Hongfei.

If she had been kidnapped, Wen Xian would sacrifice anything to save her. It could even be exposing the truth or ending her relationship with Zhuang Ziyi.

If she had eloped with Bai Hongfei, then Wen Xian would have to stay and take care of Zong Qifeng and the child.

This whole mess started because of her, and she had to take responsibility for it.

As for Zhuang Ziyi, there was a high chance that she might have to forego their relationship.

She looked at the baby sleeping beside her, and she reached out to stroke his little cheeks. How could she deprive this child of a mother?

Dinner time came and went, and Wen Qing was still nowhere to be found. “Is he that busy?” Wen Xian was a little panicked.

“He goes out quite a bit these days,” Madam Wen answered.

“What’s he even doing outside?” Wen Xian asked.

“It’s probably his work. He’s not married yet, so what else could he be busy with besides work?”

Wen Xian didn’t manage to get what she wanted to hear from her mother, but she figured that Wen Qing wouldn’t let their parents know if he had actually kidnapped Cheng Yuxiu.

He would have kept the truth from them so that they wouldn’t get worried.

She couldn’t sleep that night as she couldn’t stop thinking about Cheng Yuxiu. In a bid to catch Wen Qing when he comes home, Wen Xian stayed up waiting.
