Stealing Your Heart (Lin Xinyan) novel Chapter 249

Stealing Your Heart Chapter 249

Looking up at the bright rising sun, Lin Xinyan somehow didn’t wish to ruin such a beautiful day with such a dark piece of news. She knew she shouldn’t be so wary and think that everyone was evil. Maybe she was traumatized by He Ruize, hence she was pessimistic when it came to dealing with people.

“Nothing, I’m just suggesting. I’ve reached my destination.” Lin Xinyan pointed to the hotel and paused her footsteps. “You?”

Bai Yinning gasped, “I thought you’ll invite me in!”

“That’s your territory. You can enter anytime you want. Even if you decide to move out of your house and stay in your hotel, I don’t have the right to interfere.” Lin Xinyan shrugged. This was not her place, so she was not in the position to comment on anything.

The man’s eyes lit up in delight at her suggestion.

“Oh yes! Why hadn’t I thought of that?” Bai Yinning knitted his brows in consideration. “Right, I’m going to spend the night in the hotel then.”

Lin Xinyan turned to the man in bewilderment.

This man. Is he crazy? Staying in the hotel when he has his own house to go back to?

However, Bai Yinning did not explain his actions. He purposely did so only to annoy Zong Jinghao. Who asked him to hang up his call and even said he was from the customer service line!

The more Zong Jinghao was annoyed with him and disliked him for being close with his wife, the more he would bug him with his appearance and closeness with Lin Xinyan.

At least he got to get on the other man’s nerves.

Despite being bewildered, Lin Xinyan decided to stay quiet and not make any comments.

“I’ll go in first.”

“Okay.”

The woman departed from his side. By the time she returned to the restaurant, her family had left, hence she returned to her room. There were bodyguards guarding by the lift, not allowing anyone to reach their floor. Ever since the prank doll incident, even the waiters whom they knew personally were not allowed up the floor. The moment they saw Lin Xinyan, the guards nodded respectfully at her. The woman was not the type to put on airs and graces, hence she smiled back cordially.

Since this floor consisted only of their gang and no one else, Qin Ya did not close her room door. Lin Xinyan could see her daughter drawing under her friend’s guidance. This was one of the rare times the little girl was so quiet, hence she did not enter to disrupt the peace. Lin Xichen was lying on his stomach while engrossed in solving his tough quizzes. There was no need to worry about him at all.

Qin Ya noticed her at the door. Patting Lin Ruixi’s shoulder, Qin Ya instructed, “I’m getting a cup of water. You can continue your art.”

“Ok.” The little girl did not look up at all. She was engrossed in her work.

Qin Ya approached Lin Xinyan. “You’re back?”

The woman nodded. “Where are the others?”

“They’re in Shen’s room. They asked me to tell you to go there once you’re back.”

Lin Xinyan nodded with a grin. “Then I have to trouble you with Ruixi then.”

“Oh, not a trouble at all. That’s what friends are for!” Qin Ya closed the door with a grin. “Go now.”

“Ok.”

Lin Xinyan reached Shen Peichuan’s room and knocked on his door. Su Zhan opened the door immediately. This time, he greeted seriously without teasing her, “Sis.”

Now the woman was not used to his formal greetings.

What had happened for such a wild and impertinent man to turn so serious all of a sudden?

Without a word, Su Zhan made way for her to enter.

The curtains of the room were up and the sunlight splashed through the window, brightening up the room significantly. However, Zong Jinghao’s tall figure was slouching on the sofa, while beside the window, Shen Peichuan stood still in deep thought.

The atmosphere was contrastingly down compared to the bright weather.

The woman sat beside her husband and asked, “What happened? You guys look serious.”

Zong Jinghao turned to her slowly and stared at her, still not uttering a word.

Lin Xinyan held on to his arms instinctively. She never liked it when Zong Jinghao was silent. It somehow meant that something bad was about to happen.

A while later, only then did her husband asked flatly, “What did you eat just now?”

The woman’s breath hitched at his words. So he was mad at her for eating out with Bai Yinning?
