Stealing Your Heart Chapter 25
When Lin Xinyan saw the mother and daughter, her footsteps faltered. When Shen Xiuqing saw her, she frowned.
“Mom, isn’t that Lin Xinyan? Why is she here?” Unlike Shen Xiuqing, Lin Yuhan could not restrain herself as much.
“She’s here to eat?”
The dishes here were exquisite in appearance and taste, and the price was not what an average person could afford.
Lin Xinyan could now afford to come to this kind of restaurant for food?
Shen Xiuqing sneered. “She married into the Zongs. Although that man is a handicapped, he still has societal status and wealth. It’s not unusual for her to be able to enter these kind of places.”
Lin Xinyan did not want to interact with them, but as she started leaving, she was stopped by Lin Yuhan.
“You just married a handicapped. Even if you come to these high-end places, you’re still a low-classed girl.” Her eyes judged her appearance as she said it, and she could not help but mockingly laughed at her.
“Move aside!” Lin Xinyan coldly said.
Lin Yuhan did not move aside.
“What are you frustrated with? Are you angry that I said you married a handicapped?”
Guan Jing frowned. He was about to stop Lin Yuhan from acting like a shrew when he saw Zong Jinghao walking over.
He kept back his hand that had reached out for her.
“Lin Xinyan, you had married into the Zongs but you’re still living so miserably? Is it because even that handicapped thinks you’re not worth it?” Lin Yuhan covered her mouth as she sneered, “Don’t be like your mother. She couldn’t even keep a man by her.”
By this time, Lin Xinyan had also realized that Zong Jinghao was walking over. She widened her eyes.
Lin Yuhan saw the unnatural look on Lin Xinyan’s face, and thought it was because she was mad. She became even more presumptuous as she said, “Lin Xinyan, this is the rest of your life. The first half of your life you were abandoned by your father and sent to another country to fend for yourself. The other half of your life, you’re meant to serve a handicapped and live lonely.”
“I’m afraid to disappoint you.” A low and rich male voice appeared.
It came silently, yet it left a deep impression, forcing the people who heard it to focus on it.
“Who do you think you—” Lin Yuhan turned around and was about questioned who he was to say that, but she saw the man who was standing nearby. He wore a suit, and his slender figure made him unusually tall. Especially those long legs that were wrapped in his suit pants.
He had high nose bridge and sexy lips. His facial features were defined, and those deep eyes held a hint of coldness in them.
His steps were steady; every step he took was silently pressuring the people around him.
His indifference and calm composure brought out his noble temperament. He walked in the sacred light.
And stole everyone’s attention.
Especially Lin Yuhan’s, whose jaw dropped in surprise.
Wasn’t— Wasn’t he a handicapped?
Shocking and unbelievable.
How could this be?
Under Lin Yuhan and Shen Xiuqing’s watch, he held onto Lin Xinyan’s shoulder. “It’s time for us to go.”
Lin Xinyan was stunned for a few seconds. She raised her head. “You—”
His gaze darkened, and his faint smile radiated love and care. “What’s wrong? Have you gone silly?”
Lin Yuhan stared at his legs; her eyes were about to pop out from surprise.
“Weren’t you handicapped?”
Then she quickly covered her mouth, realizing that it was inappropriate.
Shen Xiuqing could not come out of her trance.
This was unbelievable.
Zong Jinghao felt nothing but disgust, and he left with Lin Xinyan.
Guan Jing sneered, “Shallow.”
Then he stopped looking at their faces, twisted ugly from shock.
He hurried to the car.
Shen Xiuqing’s eyes were still staring straight. She mumbled to herself in fright and in fear. Her legs trembled uncontrollably.
“How could this be? Zong Jinghao wasn’t handicapped?”
“How could this be?” Lin Yuhan was also grabbing Shen Xiuqing’s arm in a frantic. “Why were Zong Jinghao’s legs functional?”
It took a long while before Shen Xiuqing could get a hold of herself.
Did he not say that it was untreatable?
“Mom—”
