Stealing Your Heart Chapter 401
“It’s not as simple as it seems, and Wen Qing’s not talking.” Shen Peichuan could tell that Wen Qing knew the consequences of doing what he did.
He would not stop unless Zong Jinghao agreed to his terms.
After all, Wen Qing only did it to force Zong Jinghao’s submission to him.
Shen Peichuan was worried that Zong Jinghao might leave Lin Xinyan because of the incident. Even if it were only temporary, it would be enough to hurt Lin Xinyan badly.
Su Zhan and Shen Peichuan returned to the ward, where Captain Chen and his people guarded the entrance.
Seeing Captain Chen again made Su Zhan angry, but Shen Peichuan held him back. “Calm down!”
After all, Captain Chen was not the mastermind. That title would be for Wen Qing alone.
The two then entered the building, and it was quiet inside, for Lin Xinyan was still asleep. Zong Jinghao was sitting by the bed, warming Lin Xinyan’s cold hand with his own when Shen Peichuan and Su Zhan entered the room.
“What’s your plan?” whispered Shen Peichuan, who was afraid that he might disturb Lin Xinyan if he was too loud.
The light that went through the window shone on half of Zong Jinghao’s face as his thick eyelashes flapped slowly. He was stroking the back of Lin Xinyan’s hand with his thumb.
“Peichuan, do you still have men you trust?” asked Zong Jinghao in a flat tone, to which Shen Peichuan replied, “I do.”
Zong Jinghao then instructed, “Stakeout the Chen family and capture Chen Shihan the second she appears.” There was no other way for Lin Xinyan to prove her innocence besides Wen Qing’s testimony.
Obviously, Wen Qing’s not going to cooperate since he wanted me to marry Chen Shihan. But what if kidnap her?
Maybe then, I can blackmail him.
Shen Peichuan and Su Zhan looked at each other and wondered how the Chen family was involved and why Zong Jinghao wanted to kidnap Chen Shihan.
“They wanted me to marry Chen Shihan,” revealed Zong Jinghao.
“Has Wen Qing gone mad?” exclaimed Su Zhan angrily at the revelation, which earned him a look from Zong Jinghao. After being reminded that he was too loud, Su Zhan quickly covered his mouth.
“You guys should go.”
Zong Jinghao wanted some time alone with Lin Xinyan.
“I’ll go personally,” informed Shen Peichuan because he knew how important the task was to Zong Jinghao. It could very well be the turning point that Zong Jinghao needed.
“Let me know if you need anything,” offered Su Zhan, to which Shen Peichuan replied readily, “I will.”
