Stealing Your Heart Chapter 237
The most crucial part of a quality tea silk was not about the weaving but to have the most superior thread.
Lin Xinyan always thought that learning the expertise of weaving the tea silk was the most important part!
The thread used for tea silk weaving was made from a combination of natural silk, cotton and fiber from milk.
With exact portions from all three ingredients, the thread produced would be very fine and of excellent quality. Hence, to achieve this step was not an easy task.
By using this unique thread, then only could the tea silk be light, thin and smooth.
Although Cheng Yuwen divulged this most crucial step to Lin Xinyan, he still insisted to follow Lin Xinyan back to the B city.
If the Wen family were to take any actions, he would bear all consequences. This was the decision made by Cheng Yuxiu and himself.
“I thought you mentioned that you are not leaving this place?” Lin Xinyan pondered.
Lin Xinyan knew that if Cheng Yuwen were to follow her to B City and tea silk weaving got launched into the market, the Cheng family would definitely figure out that something was amiss.
“Are you afraid that I will be in danger?” Lin Xinyan asked as she recognized the reason for his sudden decision.
Alone, she was certain that she would be no match against the Wen family. However, she was not alone.
“I don’t agree,” Lin Xinyan was adamant.
“Please have faith in me. I believe that if I am in any danger, Zong Jinghao will be there to protect me,” Lin Xinyan persuaded. Subconsciously, she had already trusted and relied on Zong Jinghao.
Without herself realizing, Lin Xinyan’s attitude towards Zong Jinghao had gradually changed.
In need of help, the first person whom Lin Xinyan would turn to would be Zong Jinghao- the person whom she was close to and trusted so much.
Cheng Yuxiu had sacrificed too much for Zong Jinghao. Now, it was their turn to protect her.
“Wen Qing has reached the national level…” Cheng Yuwen murmured.
“No matter how ruthless he is, he would not harm his ‘nephew’, would he?” Lin Xinyan countered. Zong Jinghao’s identity was not revealed in the first place due to Wen family’s influence. If they discovered that Cheng Yuxiu was the one who gave birth to Zong Jinghao, he might be murdered right after his birth.
“You can’t convince me! Please do not go back to B city!” Lin Xinyan declared, her tone was firm.
Sighing, Cheng Yuwen muttered, “I am an old man. It doesn’t really matter if I die today or tomorrow.”
Yet, no matter what Cheng Yuwen said, Lin Xinyan would not give in.
As the sun rose, Lin Xinyan packed her personal belongings and left the backyard without bidding goodbye. All she left was a note.
In the front yard, most people were already up, except the two little ones. Despite the weather getting colder, the village did not have any heater. Under the covers, the two little kids were not willing to leave the bed.
Opening the door, Lin Xinyan saw both of them watching a cartoon animation on a tablet. Lin Xichen was initially not interested, however, giving in to his sister, he agreed to her requests regardless.
On the other hand, Zong Jinghao was sitting by the window, attending a video conference.
As the door opened, Zong Jinghao looked up from his laptop and saw Lin Xinyan entering the room with a backpack on her shoulders. Seeing her, Zong Jinghao knew that she had honed her craft. This meant that they were finally able to leave this place.
Zong Jinghao handed down some instructions to his subordinates before he ended the meeting promptly. Closing the laptop, he stood up.
“We can leave now,” Lin Xinyan mumbled at the entrance.
“Alright, can you help to dress them? I will inform the others about it, they will need some time to prepare,” Zong Jinghao said as he left the room.
When he walked past Lin Xinyan, he avoided her. Usually, Zong Jinghao would brush against her lightly.
It was the exact same scenario as that day when Zong Jinghao left the backyard. The atmosphere between both of them turned slightly bitter. There seemed to be an invisible barrier that was separating them.
Without herself knowing, Lin Xinyan was used to the intimacy, his touch and even his tease. The sudden distance between the both of them made her uncomfortable.
