Stealing Your Heart (Lin Xinyan) novel Chapter 327

Stealing Your Heart Chapter 327

Lin Xinyan was stunned. “H-How did you know?”

But soon after that, she figured it out. Narrowing her eyes, she asked, “Did you know it a long time ago? It’s just that you didn’t tell me, right?”

Zong Jinghao tightened his grip on her hand. “Now don’t start to imagine things-”

“I am not. If you didn’t know it already, you wouldn’t have told me just now.” After the initial nervousness, clarity began to set in.

There must be a reason that Zong Jinghao hid it from me.

A thought popped into her head. Could it be that it was Lin Guoan who has died and not Zhuang Zijin? But it must have something to do with Zhuang Zijin… I mean, that’s why Zong Jinghao was hiding it from me, right?

It suddenly dawned on her that Zhuang Zijin had had a hidden agenda for insisting on remarrying Lin Guoan.

Thinking of this, she began to regret not stopping Zhuang Zijin at the time.

“When did it happen?” She had her eyes cast down while asking.

After a long silence, Zong Jinghao replied, “It was before Lunar New Year.”

In other words, it was just a few days ago.

“Is there any evidence?” asked Lin Xinyan.

“COD for Lin Guoan was because of nitrite overdose. And according to the maids, your mother has been cooking for him every day.”

She parted her lips but could not say anything. With a lump in her throat, she was annoyed that she didn’t notice what Zhuang Zijin was up to earlier.

In the cold wind, Zong Jinghao parked the car in the compound of the Criminal Investigative Division of B City.

Shen Peichuan, who was waiting at the entrance, took a few steps forward when he saw their car.

Soon after that, Lin Xinyan got out of the car, but hesitation stopped her in her tracks when she reached the entrance.

Zong Jinghao then came up to her to wrap his arms around her and comforted, “With Peichuan here, she won’t suffer. Don’t worry.”

Lin Xinyan nodded her head.

“Let’s go,” urged Shen Peichuan.

After entering the hall, Shen Peichuan led them to his office as he arranged for Zhuang Zijin to be brought over here.

“I’d like to talk to her in private,” Lin Xinyan said.

Shen Peichuan looked up at Zong Jinghao to get his consent before replying, “Come on in. I’ll bring her over later. No one will come here today.”

He was implying that she could say anything to Zhuang Zijin as no one would eavesdrop on their conversation.

Lin Xinyan nodded her head and walked into the office. The place was all cleaned up, so it was very tidy.

Sitting on the sofa, Lin Xinyan was not in the mood to think about other things. She just wanted to see Zhuang Zijin quickly and to ask her if things were like what she had thought.

Soon, the office door was pushed open. She immediately tensed up and straightened her back, but she did not dare to turn around.

Zhuang Zijin was also a little hesitant when she walked inside. Meanwhile, Shen Peichuan poured two glasses of water on the table and said in a low voice, “Take your time.”

They could stay however long they wanted.

Lin Xinyan responded in acknowledgment while Shen Peichuan exited the room and closed the door behind him.

After a while, Zhuang Zijin, who was standing behind her, broke the silence and called her, “Yan.”

Lin Xinyan clenched her fists, but said nothing.

Sighing, Zhuang Zijin walked over.
