Stealing Your Heart Chapter 318
“I won’t let anyone know about this yet.” She wanted to put matters relating to the Tea Silk and the fashion show on hold first.
It did not mean that she was going to give up on them. Rather, she was waiting for an appropriate opportunity.
If she insisted on pursuing this matter regardless of everything else, she would only make things more difficult for Zong Jinghao.
Fortunately, there was still a lot of time.
His kiss slid to her ears as he uttered hoarsely, “You’re still unwilling to tell me.”
Sweat dotted her forehead and nose. Her body trembled while her mind was in a state of turmoil.
In the end, she still decided to keep silent about it.
At three in the afternoon, Guan Jing called Zong Jinghao, informing him that everything was now ready. He could head over now.
Standing at the porch, Lin Xinyan tidied his collar and tie attentively. He hugged her waist and asked her, “What if I don’t want to go anymore?”
Lin Xinyan replied, “If you aren’t afraid of demotivating your staff, you don’t need to go.”
The employees from the headquarter and branch offices would be there. In fact, just by counting the members from the upper management, there were already two hundred people. As it was rare to see Zong Jinghao even once a year, it would be quite unpardonable if he did not show up at the gala.
Zong Jinghao pinched her cheek, his eyes scanning her face carefully. As his fingers stroked her lips, he asked, “Will you wait for me until I return home?”
Lin Xinyan nodded. “Yeah.”
“I’ll come back as soon as possible.” He planted a gentle kiss on her soft and tender lips. The longer he kissed her, the more addictive it became. Hence, he hugged her waist and deepened the kiss.

They heard the door open. Lin Xinyan pushed him away hurriedly, while Zong Jinghao released her.
Zong Qifeng and Cheng Yuxiu entered. Looking at how neatly dressed Zong Jinghao was, Zong Qifeng asked, “You’re going out?”
“I’m going to the office,” replied Zong Jinghao curtly.
Zong Qifeng did not say anything either. After all, he had stopped managing the company for a long time and he had complete faith in Zong Jinghao’s abilities. There was nothing else for him to instruct.
Lin Xinyan held the coat up for Zong Jinghao, who reached his arms into the sleeves. He shrugged slightly and the coat fit onto his body snugly. It was a high-quality grey woolen coat, without any creases on it. When he wore the coat, he exuded a dignified and exceptional aura.
Lin Xinyan sent him out.
As it was cold outside, Zong Jinghao told her to head back into the house.
Watching the car drive out of the courtyard, Lin Xinyan closed the door and entered the house.
“Did you visit the Wen family?” The moment Lin Xinyan turned around, she saw Cheng Yuxiu standing behind her.
She answered honestly, “Yes.”
“He didn’t place you in a difficult position, right?”
“No. He doesn’t know that it’s me and Jinghao tried to deflect him. I think that he probably won’t know anytime soon.” If he remained oblivious, he would not take any action.
However, even if he knew something, Wen Qing would not act as ruthlessly as he had before. After all, she was Zong Jinghao’s wife.
She could tell that Zong Jinghao was very important to him.
As for the children’s surname, Wen Qing was not so bothered about whether they had followed the Zong family’s surname. Instead, it was about whether they had followed Zong Jinghao’s surname.
After Zong Qifeng had married Cheng Yuxiu, Wen Qing no longer had any feelings left for his ex-brother-in-law.
Cheng Yuxiu heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s good, then.”
She was afraid that she would cause Lin Xinyan trouble.
Cheng Yuxiu beckoned Lin Xinyan over to the sofa, before instructing the maids to pour them two cups of steaming tea.
“We went to Wen Xian’s grave today.” She and Zong Qifeng would go there every year. “Initially, we wanted to invite you along. However, as you still have two kids to take care of, I didn’t ask you to come.”
