Stealing Your Heart (Lin Xinyan) novel Chapter 245

Stealing Your Heart Chapter 245

In the middle of the night, Lin Xinyan was sleeping soundly. Something touched her face and she nudged. Between sleep and consciousness, she felt someone kissing her from her cheeks to her mouth…

She opened her eyes and gazed directly into a pair of clear bright eyes looking back at her.

“Why don’t you go to sleep?” Her voice was raspy as she was just waking up.

Zong Jinghao laughed, “You awake?”

Lin Xinyan stroked her hair. Aren’t I awake?

This is an unusual way of waking someone up.

Zong Jinghao put a coat in her hands, “Let’s go. I’m going to show you something.”

Lin Xinyan looked at the two children beside her. They were sleeping soundly, their cheeks pinkish and ruddy. How sweet their sleep!

“What about them?” Lin Xinyan did not want to leave them alone.

“It’s just in the next room.”

Zong Jinghao had arranged everything.

Even their rooms had been changed. It was because Lin Xinyan had been traumatized and the doll incident still haunted her.

He put the coat on Lin Xinyan and pulled it close around her. She got out of bed. Zong Jinghao put his arm around her shoulders and they left the room.

When he closed the door, he glanced at the two children in bed, making sure they were not waken up. Then he closed the door softly.

In the room next door, Shen Peichuan was also awake. He was on the sofa having Chinese tea. On the tea table in front of him was a complete tea set: a teapot and six small blue and white porcelain teacups. The whole room was filled with the fragrance of tea.

“You’re here.” Shen Peichuan put down the cup and stood up to greet her.

Lin Xinyan smiled, “You’re still up.”

“I can’t sleep.” Shen Peichuan’s eyes flashed with anger, “If anyone plays tricks under my watch, I cannot sleep until I’ve caught the culprit.”

Instantly, Lin Xinyan understood why she was asked to come. Could there be new discoveries?

Otherwise they wouldn’t ask me to come.

“You’ve found something so fast?” Lin Xinyan was a little surprised.

“Not for certain, but it shouldn’t be long till we affirm it.” There was another group who had not reported back yet- those sent by Shen Peichuan to Yao Qingqing’s old home.

Zong Jinghao held her as they sat down. He took the remote control from the table and turned on the screen on the wall.

In a short moment, the screen flashed, “Who is Mr. Bai?”

On the screen, a man wearing a leather jacket was looking at Yao Qingqing in a sinister way.

Shen Peichuan was afraid that Lin Xinyan would be confused. So, he explained to her, “Jinghao suspected this woman and he informed Bai Yinning about her. It was actually just an excuse to use Bai Yinning. Because of his special relationship with Yao Qingqing, to find out where she lives is not a difficult task. Sure enough, after Bai Yinning left the hotel, he went to find Yao Qingqing.”

The man sent by Shen Peichuan tailed them and discovered Yao Qingqing’s residential address.

After Bai Yinning had left, the man took out some money and knocked on Yao Qingqing’s door. He gave her the money, saying that it was from Bai Yinning. At that time, the man in the leather jacket came to snatch the money from Yao Qingqing. As they struggled, Shen Peichuan’s man attached a surveillance camera on the TV.

From that camera was obtained this video of the man in the leather jacket asking Yao Qingqing who Mr. Bai was.

Lin Xinyan raised her eyes and stared at Shen Peichuan, “How do you know what Zong Jinghao wants?

She remembered that Zong Jinghao had carried Lin Xichen away after speaking.

He had not interacted with Shen Peichuan at all.

It was after their meal that he called them out.
